Summary
Set days after the events in Shadow (1.16), Dean and Sam are trying to get as far from Chicago as they can when an unexpected and yet familiar arrival throws their world into disarray. Dean didn't ask for a glimpse into his and Sam's future, and he's still not sure he wants one, especially not when his future self starts talking about angels and miracles, like either of those things could possibly exist.
"Okay, let's say you're right. Let's say at some point I'm going to travel into the past, meet myself, and then force myself to take a cross-country road trip with myself so that I can find some dude I refuse to talk about. The hell, Sam? Does any of that make sense?"

For All You Young Hockey Players Out There, Pay Attention by thursdaysfallenangel
Fandoms: Supernatural
23 Jul 2022

Summary
Dean Winchester knows two things about hockey, two things his dad made sure he knew. One, hockey is a guy’s sport, and two, hockey is family. Hockey meant Sam and Bobby and Benny and Victor and Gabriel and hell, his entire team. So when Victor gets traded, Russian-star-turned-new-teammate Castiel Krushnic becomes a threat. As much as Dean hates him for that, the longer he sticks around, the more he begins to threaten that first rule too. Dean’s been taught his whole life that those who play hockey should not be captivated by deep accented voices and the way a guy handles his stick, so how the hell is he supposed to justify what he’s starting to think about Cas? All Dean wanted at the beginning of the season was to win, and now all he wants to do is figure out how he feels about Cas and how to deal with it without ruining his career and tearing his family apart.

Summary
“Are you finally proposing?” Buck asks, and the air rushes out of Eddie like he’s been punched in the gut, a swift burst.
Hearing it from Buck makes it real, solidified, no longer a shapeless fantasy in his head.
"Proposing what?”
“Marriage, genius.” Buck snorts. “Duh.”
Buck peels Eddie's pomegranates, carves out the brown spots from his apples, eats the ugly, discolored fruit. Eddie wants to propose, spirals, and crashes a car about it.

Summary
Castiel liked quiet. He liked predictable. You could probably call him boring and not be wrong, but Cas didn't care. He was happy that way.
Until one day, his street got torn up as a construction crew moved in, loud and persistent and, as far as Cas was concerned, specifically sent to ruin his life. Especially one construction worker who seemed to take that job personally.
Dean had to be boring. He had to be quiet, predictable, and boring. Because those were the pillars of stability.
With a bipolar diagnosis and the baggage of everything he blew up on the road to getting it, he knew better than to take the little things for granted.Then, a regular job on a regular street brought C. Novak into his life. C. Novak, who was rude, infuriating, and, unfortunately, smoking hot.
Cas and Dean both had to learn to make room for things that mattered, even if they weren't little joys. Even if they could be disruptive. And annoying. And they had to learn to navigate the room that was made for them.
Somehow, between the arguments and minor freak-outs, they both had to learn how to make space for something bigger than routine.

Summary
There is a race that takes place every year in Alaska called the Iditarod, a thousand mile journey across the Alaskan wilderness by dog sled team that has come to be known as "The Last Great Race on Earth”. It is a test of endurance, of the relationship between dogs and their people, traversing mountain ranges, frozen rivers, forest and tundra.
When writer Castiel Milton is forced to spend two and a half months in Alaska at Winchester Kennels to cover the race preparations and the Iditarod itself, the only person more dismayed than he is Dean Winchester, one of his hosts. Castiel views his assignment as a punishment and is less than impressed by his surly host, and Dean distrusts the sheltered city-born writer who has invaded their home and their lives. But soon, as the Winchesters prepare for their race and Castiel learns about sled dogs and what a musher’s lifestyle is all about, they forget to hate each other and their relationship evolves into something neither of them expected.

Summary
Isn’t there a rule by now? An eleventh Commandment? A burst of star activity in a far off galaxy that created a new constellation reading “DON’T SCREW WITH THE WINCHESTERS”? Because if there isn’t, there really should be.
On the plus side? Dean gets to punch a Leviathan again.
On the downside, Cas died. While waiting for that to wear off, Dean discovers that having Cas inside him is...a lot more complicated than when that sentence is used in bed.

Summary
(Direct sequel to Penitentiary Wing)
Castiel was back with the Winchesters - technically he had never been away.
In the absence of any immediate life-or-death crisis, Dean had finally come clean. About feelings and stuff he’d been harboring for almost five years, about the sordid human desire he felt for an angel and his best friend. It’d taken a couple of tries and he had seriously considered drawing a diagram at one point, but he’d gotten through in the end. And incredibly, instead of laughing hysterically and then flying away, Cas had kissed him like it was the most natural thing to do at that point. Which was how they’d ended up in bed.
And from there on, everything was grade A awesome. No more complications, misunderstandings or problems in sight. Nope. Smooth sailing.
Of course Dean knew that wasn’t going to happen in this or any other universe. Because Life did not work that way for Winchesters. He knew it was going to blow up in their faces somehow. But for once, Dean was not going to let that stop him. Because...
Because it was Cas. And five years was long enough.

Summary
After his crimes committed in Heaven and on Earth, Castiel expected a swift execution. Naomi could have just left him in Purgatory to die, but she was the kind to tidy up loose ends rather than let monsters eat them. A clean death in Heaven was preferable to evisceration in Purgatory, but Castiel feared the Winchesters might also be two loose ends Naomi would try to ‘tidy up’.
Instead of the Heavenly firing squad, however, Naomi decreed that Castiel would return to earth to protect his friends from harm. He would be their assigned guardian angel and Heaven would leave the three of them alone from now on.
Oh, but make no mistake. This was a punishment, not a reward. Because Naomi set a condition.
(Divergent from somewhere in Season 8/9, though not necessarily where it appears to be at first. Timelines may seem screwed up initially but this is entirely deliberate - well most of it is deliberate, though errare humanum est and all that)

Summary
1961: Sixteen years after the end of World War II, Berlin remains occupied by the Allied Forces — America, Britain, France and the Soviet Union. Castiel Krushnic is a police officer in Soviet-occupied East Berlin. He is also gay, in a city where that’s a dangerous thing to be. One night, he meets Dean Winchester, a mechanic from the American sector. Their mutual attraction is instant, and a convenient hookup quickly turns into a passionate love affair that defies all rules and expectations.
But Cold War Berlin is a troubled place, and as more and more residents flee Soviet-occupied territory for the West, Castiel’s superiors begin to make plans to build a wall. The wall would cut off East Berlin from the rest of the city — and leave Dean and Castiel on opposite sides.

Summary
“It frustrates me,” Cas mutters, “how the same sensation can feel sometimes good, and sometimes not.”
Dean’s hand is still rubbing slowly down the length of his spine, like he’s petting the valley between the wings he can’t see. “Well, that’s just par for the course,” Dean rumbles. “Sometimes a body wants touch and sometimes it wants to be left the fuck alone.”
Cas always wants touch. At least from Dean. He doesn’t say so. “It frustrates me how much good and bad I can feel at the same time.”
“Oh, buddy,” Dean says. “Yeah.”
(After the perfect darkness of the Empty, Cas finds the world a little...overwhelming. Dean tries to help.)

Summary
Years ago, Dean and his family visited the Greek island of Crete. With plenty of unsupervised days, Dean and his brother spent their summer exploring, unsure why the boy who lived there hated them.
Years ago, Castiel’s world shattered when his father disappeared. With no other choice, his mother rented out their family home to tourists, forcing them into a small shed at the back of the property.
Today, Dean returns to the island where he spent every summer, this time for work and not the blue-eyed man who once stole his heart.
Today, Cas works in his family restaurant, content with life, until, after years of silence, the one who broke his heart returns to the island.

From behind his back, Chris reveals his old, ratty Superman logo shirt. It’s way too small for him now, but, for some reason, he’s never thrown it away.
“This shirt has superpowers,” he whispers to Theo. "It keeps all the bad dreams away. It doesn’t fit me anymore, but I don’t want all the superpowers to go to waste. Do you think maybe you could look after it for me?”
Theo nods emphatically. “Yes,” he whispers. He looks up at him, his tiny face sure and determined. “I can do it, Chris.”
Or, Theo has nightmares. Chris works a hand-me-down shirt-shaped miracle.

Summary
Castiel Shurley doesn’t understand why an engineering major keeps showing up in his upper-level creative writing classes. He knows part of having a liberal arts education is taking things outside of your major, but who takes 400-level English courses for fun? And even more galling, his classmates keep gushing about his short stories. You would think Dean Winchester is the next Isaac Asimov.
Then Castiel finally gets assigned to peer edit one of Dean’s short stories… and he recognizes it. To be fair, it’s a great story. Too bad Dean didn’t write it. He stole it, lifted straight from a fanfic, with the serial numbers barely filed off.
