Summary
Dean Winchester's life changed forever the night a demon appeared in his brother's nursery and killed his father.
As a hunter Mary is determined to protect her sons from the evil she has run from her whole life - the same evil that took John. But Dean also trusts his protection to the angel in a trench coat he talks to in his dreams. Through years of tribulation and uncertainty, the Winchesters (plus a corgi that might be magic and an angel that may not be real) must fight monsters, demons, and even fate itself to survive as a family.
Or: The one where Mary lives, Cas is there, and nothing and everything changes.

Bookmarker's Notes
Is it pre series? Is it canon divergence? Is it time travel?
I don’t know what it was, but it hooked me. I laughed out loud, I hunted for Easter eggs, I got to meet the Mary Winchester we all should have had in canon. And the boys she should have got to raise.
A+ work, I will read again!

Summary
Just west of the town Porthgwarra, Cornwall, Robert Singer’s farm lies, a mess of ravaged land gaping out onto a fretting sea. Robert's orphaned godson, Dean Winchester, is named sole beneficiary of the farm - and though he hasn't seen his godfather in fifteen years, he travels across the Atlantic with his brother and half brother to care for Singer in his old age and tend to the farm. All of them hope to leave behind the squalor and famine of their old life.
What Dean meets is the bird-infested home of a widowed eccentric, and a new shepherd whom he can neither stand nor see any use for - stoic, rude and conceited, Dean plans to fire the mysterious and wandering Mr Novak the moment he comes into legal possession of the farm. But upon the shepherd's offer to teach him the trade, in anticipation of Dean replacing the man himself, Dean finds in the wild and roaming man a steadiness and certainty his own life has never yet contained. And one day Dean will have to ask, not tell, the shepherd to stay.

Hey do you want to be overcome with emotion about birds, illiterate Dean Winchester, poetic Castiel, and a fifty gallon drum of heartbreak?
Every chapter in this fic punched me in the face and when it was over I still asked for more.
All the stars

Time traveling Cas/Pre-series Dean, need I say more?
But I will, this is beautifully written. Tender and poetic, as if we didn’t know Castiel would fall in love with Dean; it still makes my heart explode to read it.

Summary
When a routine solo hunt involving a haunted angel statue turns into an overnight stay in a mysterious mansion, Dean discovers haunted statues are the least of what’s contained within its walls. Who is Castiel? Who is the reclusive owner, and why are the lines of reality beginning to blur? As the mystery unfolds, Dean realizes he and Castiel are trapped by the narrative in more than one way, and they’re running out of pages.

Summary
Dean Winchester is bored with sex. His best friend Castiel Novak is, too. And since they’re both bored and neither of them are in a relationship (because they don't do relationships), why not try to get out of their ruts by having roleplay sex with each other? Sure it’s a little different, a little wild, but that’s the point. They both need something completely out of their comfort zones to break them out of the humdrum of hookups and the bar scene, and they trust each other enough to commit wholly to the process. When they’ve scratched the itch, they’ll go back to their usual ways.
But the more they take on new roles, the more they shed old ones, leading them to evaluate who they really are, who they want to be, and who they want to be with.
This is a story about the roles we play, the friends we play them with, and becoming real.

Summary
Sculptor Castiel Novak gets commissioned to recreate a human size statue of the famous ‘Dying Gaul’ sealing a contract with the promise of privacy in a mansion with only him and his marble piece. Things fall in place at his new dust-filled sacred sanctuary when enters Dean Winchester, confident, charming, irresistible and wildly sexy—everything Castiel wants his art piece to have—and everything he also wants to own. But unlike his unmoving pieces that stay where he wants it to, Dean Winchester moves and talks wherever and whenever serving only to infuriate the ill-tempered artist.
Will they ever get the piece on time? Or will they have a piece of each other?

You know how most artists AU is like “oh I love the model, or oh I love the artist “??
Well this is that, but it starts off the with the grumpiest Castiel I have had the pleasure of reading. I would have tagged enemies to lovers but Dean is so enamored and horny.This story doesn’t have enough kudos, it is so snarky and beautiful. You can tell the author loves art.

Summary
He's going to kill Gabriel.
He probably makes that threat about once a week, but this time he really means it. Because if Gabriel hadn't taken Castiel's car for a spur-of-the-moment trip to Nevada, Castiel wouldn't currently be packed into a subway car along with what seems to be the total population of Manhattan without enough room to so much as scratch his nose.

Summary
Castiel Novak receives a rather alarming text message from an unknown number, and what started as a simple misdial quickly turns into the greatest friendship Castiel has ever known. But Dean has many secrets, dangerous truths about the life he lives, and would like to tell Castiel exactly none of them.
A (slightly) AU, (mostly) text fic, S3 fix-it romance (of sorts).

Summary
When Hurricane Abby sprang up out of nowhere, nearly a month out of season, to pummel the tiny island where Castiel’s sister was getting married, his only thought was escaping the reception and his mother Naomi’s criticisms of his “lifestyle choices” to see the fury of mother nature in action. He didn’t anticipate saving anybody’s life, and certainly not that of the most stunning man he’s ever seen.
~*~
The unseasonable hurricane wasn’t the only force of nature on the beach that night. Dean counts himself lucky that the beautiful blue-eyed stranger was there to save his life. He never could have anticipated that a nameless one-night stand in a tiny storm-tossed shack would change his entire life.

Summary
“How the fuck do you know my name?” Dean hisses.
The man doesn’t look scared. He is watching Dean like there is nothing else worth watching, lips a little parted, eyes a little soft. And blue. Real blue, like the ocean on a postcard.
The ice spreading down Dean’s spine makes him shiver.
“I suppose you could say I’m your guardian angel,” the man murmurs. His breath fogs pale between them. All of him is unnaturally warm, like Dean’s touching somebody with the sun sewn up beneath their skin. “I have known you, Dean Winchester, for a very long time.”
*
Dean meets an angel who says he's from the future. It all gets a lot more complicated from there.

Summary
The unintended application of an ancient nuptial blessing leaves Cas and Dean at each others' mercy, having bestowed upon them the ability to both experience and influence the other's sexual sensations for the space of ten days. Any other two people with sense would swear off any and all carnal activity until the blessing runs its course, but when have Cas and Dean ever had any sense when it comes to what the other is feeling? A tale of self-gratification, unexpected gratification, self-restraint, lack of any restraint at all, and Sam having to work a case all by himself because of an "illness" that has suspiciously brought Dean and Cas both to their knees. Ahem.

The sheer number of orgasms in 14 chapters is astounding, but I assure you it doesn’t feel repetitive. Short chapters, humor, more smut than you can shake a stick at, and gosh darn it there’s some plot in there too!

Summary
A broken man and angel learn to fly. It started off with Dean teaching Cas about classic rock - because what better to cure an existential crisis? Then it was long drives, alcohol, saving people, how to pack a good snowball, and eventually sex and love. Dean and Castiel learn to be together after crashing into love.

Summary
Dean’s your typical half-orphaned, monster-killing 22-year-old until a trenchcoated stranger crashes into his back windshield one September night, claiming he’s an angel that knows him from the future and that he’s on the run.
Frigging fantastic.
(Or, in which Castiel gets stuck in Dean’s timeline preseries and Dean kind of hates it—until he doesn’t.)

Summary
Castiel falls, and falls, and falls. He comes home to Sam and Dean – he tries to learn, to accept, to adjust – but a former angel will always be out of place.
This is humanity, as defined by a fallen angel, and feelings you didn’t know had a name.

Summary
A week ago, Dean was pulled out of Hell. Now, he’s apparently woken up in 2018, and the angel that a mere twenty-four hours beforehand had threatened to chuck him back into the pit is sleepily pouring himself coffee and wearing Dean’s second-favourite Zeppelin shirt. It all seems like a perfect happy ending, but with Hell’s scars still so fresh, Dean can’t imagine how he could have possibly gotten there.
At the same time, the Dean who went to sleep in the bunker, right next to Cas, wakes up on Bobby’s couch in 2008. He’s instantly bombarded with questions by a Lilith-obsessed brother and a man who’s been dead for years, and must decide between keeping his finally-perfect life intact, and the lives he could save by re-writing history.
Regardless of these choices, both Deans are trapped in the wrong decade, and their only way back lies with a Castiel still very much under Heaven’s thumb – one who might find the future Dean describes difficult to believe.

Summary
In a world where being dominant or submissive is part of your biology, Dean Winchester is a sub in trouble. Resistant to his submissive nature and the role society expects him to play, Dean fights against his body’s instincts until he’s sent to Purgatory—a high-class facility meant to train subs and help them find their perfect match. Skeptical and wary, Dean warms up to the program for one reason, and one reason only: his trainer, Castiel Novak. Castiel is the poster-boy of dominance, a workaholic outside the playroom, and probably the hottest Dom Dean has ever seen.
As their bond becomes more passionate and profound, the boundaries between them blur and feelings begin to surface. But not everyone approves of their powerful connection…in fact, someone might just do anything to stop it in its tracks.

Summary
The briefing was simple: ‘Stand guard over the Michael Sword until the battle is ready to commence. Await further instructions.’
Castiel doesn’t mind working security duty; he was briefed shortly after the initial salvation of the Sword from the pit, and again before taking up his position. He knows what to do. However, it’s easy to forget that the green room isn’t real. Time moves differently there, the space ever-changing to make a prison of mountains, cathedrals, salt flats, orchards, and whatever Castiel was led to believe about Heaven’s greatest weapon—Dean Winchester is something entirely unexpected.

Summary
A piece of rebar to the heart wasn't really the way Dean had planned to go out, but these things happen. It's over now; everything's over, and now he's in Heaven. It's a beautiful Heavenly day, on a beautiful Heavenly road, and there's even a Heavenly cassette tape playing a perfect Heavenly song. The last war is over; they won it all, victorious at last, and now all Dean wants to do is drive.
The song plays, and Dean drives.
At last he's at peace.
Or is he?
