Summary
Castiel is an assassin who kills people on contract. He's been paid hundreds of thousands of dollars, millions, even, but never all the money from someone's piggy bank. That's exactly what Ben Winchester offers him, though, with the hopes of getting Castiel to make his abusive stepfather leave him and his dad alone.
How can Castiel refuse something like that?

Summary
Dean is fine. The way he sees it, things are simple. He had a house and a family and food in his stomach, and now he doesn't. And yeah, that's a downer, but he's not going to let that stop him from being fine, because he's in control of the situation. He definitely doesn't need anyone to save him. And it's not like the weird guy with the nice butt from down the road is the knight-in-shining-armor type, anyway.

Summary
Original prompt: Castiel is very straight laced, level headed and from a deeply religious family. He doesn’t believe in sex before marriage and has never had any problems resisting because even though he has liked girls in the past it’s never gone past friendship, never been attraction. Dean is all kinds of messed up. John sexually abuses him after Mary’s death and after John’s death Dean turns to drugs and crime and his self-hate gets so bad he cuts his wrists. But Sam and Jess find him and send him to rehab where of course Cas works. And when Dean needs a place to stay well what else would a guy like Cas do but offer his own spare room?
Or,
The one where Castiel may end up needing to pray for salvation for the both of them.

Summary
Crowley is insane and delusional if he thinks Castiel is just going to join him on some stupid case like they’re buddies.
(Crowley is insane and delusional full-stop, but that’s besides the point).
…
In which Dean Winchester cannot communicate, dumbass choices are made, text messages are ignored, and Castiel joins Crowley on some stupid case.
…They’re still not buddies, though. No matter what Crowley says.
Featuring: Misuse of Angel Radio! Dave the bunny rabbit! Tennessee's most ostentatious funeral home! And more!

Summary
Inspired by Jennilah's adorable artwork of a tiny!cas-filled gumball machine.
Dean walks into his local bank one day and notices that someone has filled the old gumball machine with these tiny, wiggling, sentient angels in individual plastic packaging. Deeply concerned about their air supply and the fact that they're trapped there in the sun, he starts pumping in quarters to rescue them. This is worse than leaving a dog in an overheating car.
Now he's got forty of the little guys running all over his house, and god knows how many others might be trapped and dying all over the city.

Summary
“What you do is good,” because Dean’s not so great in the words department. It doesn’t seem to matter, Cas looks touched by the sentiment either way. “And what you did- too. I mean, what you said, did you really…Ya know. Carry my burning soul?”
“You don’t remember?” Cas seems genuinely surprised. As surprised as he can, at least, with that perpetually bird-like way he has about him.
“What, you yanking me out? Nah. There’s nothing there.”
“Yes, I carried you out of Hell.”
“My burning soul.”
“Yes.”
“What was- What was that like?”

Summary
In which Dean is forced to deal with his trauma and come to a reckoning with himself. Also, Cas is there.
See notes for more specific Content Warnings.
*** *** ***
"No one hates you as much as you do," Crowley told him once. That's Dean's whole M.O. right there. His two fundamental truths are that it is his job to save everyone, and that no matter how many people he saves it will never change the fact that he is 90% crap.
Dean knows who he is. Yeah, he's done some good for the world, okay, he gets that. But deep down? The person he is inside is still worthless. Dean will never be good enough, never be any kind of role model. He's never going to shake that, so if that's what this whole seven trials angelic bullshit is about, then he and Cas might as well hold hands and drive off the cliff now.

Summary
Slowly, Mystery Man raises his head. And when his eyes meet Dean’s again, they are so full that Dean is nearly leveled by it. Just. There’s love there, affection, fondness, all in that haunted cornflower blue. They’re greedy, too, like they’re consuming every detail. Dean forgets to breathe. “You sure this guy ain’t dead?” he manages. “Cause you’re looking at me like the last time you saw his mug was ten years ago.”
Mystery Man inhales sharply but doesn’t so much as blink. “He’s very much alive. He made pancakes this morning.” No further elaboration.
“Right…” Dean says a little awkwardly. “Well, since this is happening, apparently, what’s your name?”
Now, Mystery Man hesitates, frowns. Finally, he says, “My name is Cas.”

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
As a grease monkey turned college freshman, Dean's constantly three seconds away from being stressed out of his mind. It hardly helps that he's finally figuring out his sexuality in his thirties.
What might help with that stress is a little phone number (and a big credit card bill). If he can't figure out how to be bisexual in person, he can at least give it a go over the phone, right?
(It's probably a bad idea, but he really can't help himself.)

Summary
Neil knew, better than anyone, that Todd Anderson was special. Ethereal, even. He was warm and earnest and gentle in a school that, most days, was more excrement than excellent.
It should have come as no surprise when someone else seemed to come to that same realisation.
It was fine. Todd deserved the recognition. Neil wasn’t jealous.
Not at all.

Summary
“You know what Jimmy Novak looked like. You think he was beautiful—gorgeous, hot, all of it. It’s him. Not me. This isn’t my face.”
“But,” Dean says. He doesn’t know where he’s going with it. Just that Cas’ face is right there, brows drawn together and cheekbones gleaming in the lamplight. It’s a face that’s made his heart skip probably a couple hundred beats collectively since they met.
And it used to belong to someone else.

Summary
“Right,” Dean says. He nods to himself and tries to believe that Cas means it when he says he’s going to stay. “Right, and Jack, he brought you back?”
Cas smiles softly. “Yes, it took him time to figure out how to use his powers in a way that he could reach me, but he succeeded. We had our own reunion and discussion before he brought me here.” He looks back at Dean. “You have, apparently, been quite the talk of Heaven.”
Dean frowns and finally pulls away. He would be worried, maybe is a little bit, because when do they ever really catch a fucking break, but Cas is looking at him with something so fragile in his eyes. Something light and hopeful and sad all at the same time.
“What’d I do now?”
Cas looks at him like his heart is breaking. “You prayed my name to every angel in Heaven for six days straight.”
or the one where dean grieves in his own way until jack swings a little power to give dean another shot at that love confession

Summary
“Dean. You have been overly affectionate towards me this morning,” Cas states with his brows pulled tight. Embarrassed, Dean pulls his socked foot back from he’d been teasing Cas’s ankle with it.
“What, a guy can’t show a little interest in his partner?”
“You do not appear to be interested in sex today.”
Dean feels a pit form in his stomach and he looks away briefly before forcing himself to meet Cas’s eyes. “I’ve been coming onto you all morning,” he argues.
“You haven’t smiled once while you did it.”

Summary
For all the sex Dean had in his lifetime, none of it came close to how it was with Cas. Truly, none of them are in the same category as Cas. In Dean’s mind, there was a very clear and obvious separation between “sex” and “sex with Castiel.” They were not one in the same, though nothing was ever on the same level as Cas in Dean’s eyes. They were just too bonded, too connected to one another.
Which made it even odder when Castiel seemed to drop off of the face of the Earth with no warning.
