    Summary

    Fear not; I am the first and the last: I am he that liveth, and liveth, and was dead; and behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen.

     

    He doesn’t care what happens on earth between hunters and witches. They’re not his kind anymore. “I’m spoiled merchandise,” Dean says finally. “I’m not the droid you’re looking for. I can’t help you. This isn’t my fight. It doesn't matter what your daddy told you.”

    Summary

    Taking place after the season four episode, "It's the Great Pumpkin, Sam Winchester," Dean finds himself suddenly directing his violent tendencies toward humans, and Castiel takes it upon himself to try and shake Dean out of his post-Hell trauma while simultaneously protecting him from angels AND demons.

    (Aside from the mentions of Castiel and Dean's first few interactions in season four and the backstory of Dean's time in Hell, very little else resembles canon in this story.)

    Summary

    The stagnant air seems suddenly charged, revitalised with the tangible taste of anticipation that softens the whiskey burn in the back of his throat. A gentle hush falls over the room, waiting for something that Dean doesn’t know, but finds himself swept up in anyway.

    A shuffle, the sound of a door on the far side of the room opening and closing. Then, a voice.

    It’s sonorous sound rings resplendent through the room, something that seems too beautiful to exist here, amongst the tobacco rough voices and rowdy shouts of the other customers, and Dean watches in something too fragile to be awe as the most beautiful man he’s ever seen makes his way to the centre of the stage.

    OR

    Dean goes to a bar and meets a magical conductor.

    Summary

    Dean likes to say we are making our house a home, but I find myself quietly disagreeing. From my point of view, what we are doing is bringing our home into this house, because my home has always been at Dean’s side. When he was a child, I yearned for a permanent place like this for him to find the safety and stability he so deserved, but somehow, in the meantime, we were able to find home in each other.


    Another peek into future freedom for Dean and Castiel.

    Castiel has been freed from his enslavement, and Dean rescued from Hell. All that should be left for them to do is ride off into the sunset, right? They even get to settle down and buy a house of their own, finally getting the chance to live 'like real people'.

    There was supposed to be peace, now that the fight is done and the war avoided, but they're beginning to understand that even freedom doesn't mean they're not still haunted by demons that are a lot harder to exorcise than with holy water. When faced with the realisation that there are some things they might never be able to unlearn, it threatens to break what they have worked so long and so hard to protect.

    Title inspired by: peace by Taylor Swift

    Summary

    After Sam almost sees Dean die in that barn, he can't quite shake the feeling that something's going to happen if he loses sight of him. He had never wanted to be as close to his brother as now. He can't take his eyes off him. After weeks of recovery, Dean wants to go back to hunting, but Sam wants him to just stay home. He knows the way he feels about his brother is wrong, but after hell, Sam finds it difficult to remember social norms.

    aka Sam is struggling after Dean's recovery and they go on a hunt together. Some monster is hunting incestuous couples and some feelings are revealed. They decided to have sex to play bait for the monster and this turns out way more emotional than they both had expected it.

    Summary

    Dean leans into Sam's touch, instinctive, too exhausted to fight the part of him that enjoys the attention Sam gives him, a shameful dirty secret, how much he loves letting Sam do this, when it should be the other way around.

    No one else would ever take care of him like this.

    Summary

    "...but it didn't feel like salvation because he knew his father loved him like he loved his favorite weapon and as daddy's blunt instrument it's not like dean's life truly belonged to him anyway... and so he dies for his father by dying for his brother and thinks just maybe that will cancel out his stolen second and third lives too."

    Summary

    "It isn’t unheard of for an angel who walks the earth too long to develop some human traits. Some of my brothers and sisters have shown displays of emotion after a mission requires they blend in with humans, which are quickly corrected. But I—" Cas pauses for a moment, a thumb coming up to absently stroke at his handprint on Dean's shoulder, "I believe I felt for the first time when I first touched you in Hell. Do you know how blinding, how overwhelming your soul is, even to an angel's grace? You are beautiful, Dean Winchester, and I knew that before I knew what beauty really meant."

    Summary

    Six Months Ago, Dean received the stigmata- wounds that suddenly appeared on his body, bringing with them visions of crucifixion and the sickening smell of roses. He hoped turning water into wine and fighting Lucifer would be the extent of being The Second Coming, but he was wrong.

    The Apocalypse is here and Dean will have more to fight than he ever imagined.

    Dean may be the Messiah, but he doesn't feel like it.

    Summary

    The Angel of Death’s purpose was to act on the will of Death. A physical being to arrive on Earth and perform judgements where necessary. To act in His stead.

    And Harry? He was perfectly fine with that.

    Regardless, Death had a mission for him. To deal with the devil.

    Okay, he just wanted to say that.

    His job was to follow the Winchester brothers and guide them.

    Death was everywhere at once– even in the future. Harry couldn’t really see too far or his brain would explode, because it was something a human could never process. To be everywhere at once.

    And that is why Death knew that Lucifer would get him in chains. To attempt to control him (yet Lucifer would not know of the Angel of Death’s existence, as he’d been made after Lucifer was caged).

    Fate has told its tale (or an elaborate way of saying ‘Death knows all’), and thus Harry would make sure that it followed the smoothest path it could.

    People often forget that Death is as old as God, after all.

    ..Not to mention if an angel will already be guiding them, why couldn’t he?
    --
    OR, Harry is the Angel of Death, and it happens that his duty follows a pair of brothers.
