Summary
It’s Dean’s day off, and he’d like to spend it how he always does—by kicking his feet up with a cold one and watching soap operas—not by discovering an enormous, creepy hole in his bathroom wall that definitely wasn’t there when he went to bed last night. But it’s no big deal. He can just patch it up and still devote plenty of time to Dr. Sexy afterward. There is only one problem. He can’t leave his apartment, and there’s a message on his front door written in…is that blood?
And why is it signed by someone named “Cas”?
Things can only get better from here, right?

Summary
Dean’s house-sitting for his brother. He’s enjoying having the place to himself, with its huge master bedroom, Olympic-sized swimming pool, and amazing sound system. By coincidence, Dean’s ex-best friend, Cas, ends up on the doorstep, and together they drink, get high, and fight about why their friendship broke down fourteen months ago.
But at least they’re talking.
Everything starts to go wrong, however, when what Dean and Cas assume is just a run-of-the-mill creeper phones after midnight, threatening to show up and murder the shit out of them. Dean doesn’t take it seriously, at least not until the phone and power lines are cut, the cell signals jammed, and oh… who the fuck is that out there by the pool with a freakin’ chainsaw?

Summary
Castiel was entrusted with the most sacred mission: protect the Michael Sword, the Righteous Man, until he can be of use to Heaven in the war against Lucifer. He willingly fell to Earth, with the knowledge that he would be captured, enslaved, and eventually fall into the possession of the Righteous Man’s father. He was not prepared for what that would entail, and the horror he would be forced to face at his master’s hands.
When Dean was seven, Dad went on a hunting trip, and came back with a bound, beaten man in a tan coat who suddenly went everywhere with them. His job, Dad explained, was going to be protecting Dean and Sam while Dad was away hunting.
At first, Dean doesn’t understand why the man stays around just to basically babysit them... until one terrible day he does: it’s not that Castiel won’t leave, it’s that he can’t — and after that, nothing will ever be the same.
Slavery AU — goes from Dean’s childhood to early adulthood, and the friendship he builds with the angel his father enslaved. Book 1 of 4.
Please note! Dean/Cas is the endgame, but does not happen while Dean is below the age of consent.
Title inspired by: Louder Than Words from Tick, Tick… Boom!

Summary
Raging storm, boundless cornfield surging, churning, like an angry ocean crashing its waves over steep shores. Dean comes to in the passenger seat of his car with no memory of what could have possibly brought him to the oddly named bar on the outskirts of the small town in the middle of nowhere.
Investigating what first looks like a regular, run-of-the-mill missing people case and trying to bring back memories he’s lost, Dean ends up discovering truth he’d rather remain hidden.
Welcome to Half Empty, where nothing is as it seems, and even shadows have secrets of their own.

Summary
“Are you serious, Dean? Your djinn-dream started with you dying?” Sam asks incredulously from the passenger seat on the way back to the bunker.
“Well, technically it started with us going on a hunt,” Dean points out. He licks his lips, jaw clenching. “I mean, there was Heaven, too, and that was pretty cool.”
Sam stares at him. “Unbelievable,” he breathes, scrunching his face up in distaste. When Dean glares at him, he holds his hands up defensively and chuckles weakly. “Sorry, man, but that just sounds pretty lame.” He leans back and folds his arms. “It just…I dunno. Kinda sounds like something Chuck would cook up. Just you and me. No one else. I mean, really?” He scoffs, slumping.
*~*~*
In which some people come back, Cas learns to be human (the right way, this time), Dean Winchester finally realizes that good things do happen, and they all get their version of the post-credits, apple-pie life they deserved.
AKA: Screw Chuck's narrative.
