Summary
'There was a telephone number. Having it was as singular a privilege as possibly imaginable. As such, the person on the other end of the line – should he pick up – was called nothing less than the 'Untouchable Prince'.
Honestly, Damen had no idea how a phone sex line could possibly pay off when the clients were a select few meticulously screened and regularly weeded out by the single operator, but after another night of trying his hardest not to jerk off to the haunting image of his haughty neighbor, he couldn’t care less.'
AKA the Phone Sex Operator AU no one asked for

Summary
“I am glad it was you.”
The words fall into the peaceful quiet between them and become tension. Damen’s hand, which has been tracing the shape of Laurent’s collarbone, stills above his heart.
“Auguste was never going to live. I understand this, now.”

Summary
After the death of his son, there is nothing left for Dean other than his garden market. His days are tough, the nights are tougher, but at least there's a reason to get up in the morning. And with the new boom on do-it-yourself garden magic, his business is going okay.
Amidst the passing of time, there is only one thing that distracts him from functioning like a normal human being: Diagonally across the street, in the display window of that traditional Herb and Potion shop, plants are dying in masses.
Storming in to confront the owner goes differently than he imagined, though. Castiel Novak may be the kind of guy who wears old-fashioned mage robes and keeps his shop in sweltering heat, but he's also a talented herbalist, the kindest soul Dean has ever met, and utterly beautiful.
Not that Dean is ready for anything other than friendship.
(Not that Cas doesn’t get sick a bit too often.)

A Tail Most Unusual by delicious-irony (deliciousirony), rustling_pages

Summary
It could be argued there are worse ways of meeting the love of your life than measuring their inseam for the fitting of a prosthetic merman tail, but if you asked Castiel about it, he’d probably disagree.
Secretly being a merman in Hollywood was difficult enough, but working on the cheesiest tv show to ever exploit the worst tropes about merfolk - thank you, Gabriel - with annoyingly attractive soap opera star Dean Winchester was not how Castiel had invisioned his life going.

What Castiel does, after over a year of drama that didn’t give him time to get used to being human, is start a garden.

Summary
The Battle of Marlas could have brought the relationship between Vere and Akielos to a breaking point, but it didn't. As the peace treaty is finally signed, King Aleron has a very clear idea of how to ensure the agreement is truly felt.
"Since the formal establishment of Vere and Akielos as independent reigns, there had been twelve peace treaties.
The Peace of Marlas, signed by King Aleron and Theomedes-Exalted before the beginning of autumn, would be the thirteenth.The thirteenth peace would not go down in the history of the Kingdom as an abject failure. Not if Laurent could help it."
[Chapter 2 contains Fanart by Momo (linecrosser), linked to explicit parts of the story]

I live next door to a haunted bookshop owned by an immortal cryptid bastard. AMA! by kyaticlikestea

Summary
Before anyone reports this post, I got this AMA authorised by posting proof to a mod, so there.
Hi, Reddit! I’m no-one special, but about 6 months ago, I moved into a flat above a cafe next door to a bookshop, and my life has never been the same since, because the man who runs the bookshop is some sort of ageless (mostly) benevolent eldritch being. By all accounts, he hasn’t aged a day since at least 1944, sometimes he seems to have just too many eyes, and I once saw him turn water into wine (a nice rosé). His coworker / best friend / boyfriend / shadow entity is also definitely some kind of cryptid, but despite trying harder to be a bastard, he’s somehow less successful at it.
So, if you have any questions about what it’s like to live next door to an eternal bastard man, AMA!
Or, a cryptid bastard man haunts Reddit, trying to find out how to ask out his crush of the past 6,000 years and getting downvoted to literal oblivion. Just normal stuff on the world wide web.
