“Cain said to the Lord, ‘My punishment is too great to bear! Behold, You have driven me this day from the face of the ground; and from Your face I will be hidden, and I will be a vagrant and a wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will kill me.’But the Lord said to him, ‘Not so; anyone who kills Cain will suffer vengeance seven times over.’ Then the Lord put a mark on Cain so that no one who found him would kill him.”  [Genesis 4:13-15]

Title:No fucking emoticons.
Author:saeng / bromantastic @ tumblr
Rating: PG-13 for language
Spoiler Warning: Up to 7.18
Summary: Dean’s correspondence with the demon Meg while Castiel is in her care. Pretty Gen, but it can be interpreted freely.
Author’s Notes:Important- This entire fic is in cell phone format and merely depicts the messages sent between Dean and Meg and no one else.

Fantastic coda to episode #7.17, I could totally picture this happening. All the protagonists are really in character, especially Dean. Plus, Saeng chose a very original format to narrate the story, through the correspondence of texts and one call.

Hi, Cas…

Inspired by the spoiler photo recently posted by Misha on his Twitter. I wish a scene like this one would happen \o/  (Photoshop CS4)

Summary:Dean closes his eyes, fighting back the whimpers that threaten to claw their way out of his throat. This is a duty, he knows, one that he deserves. This is who he chose to be, he thinks, and it’s only when he hears Alastair’s laugh that he realizes he spoke aloud.

Title: to the lost
Pairings/Characters: Dean/Castiel, past Dean/Lisa; Crowley and Sam appear too.
Rating: NC17
Word Count: 12800 ca
Warnings: violence, PTSD (both main characters are WWI veterans) - includes some flashbacks to war scenes, one main character is permanently/heavily disfigured/scarred, minor characters dying left and right/killed in cold blood, since both main characters are hitmen. Blood on people’s hands (literally and metaphorically). Mentions that both main characters had fleeting suicidal thoughts in the past.
Summary: 1921: Dean Winchester and Castiel Milton are two WWI veterans meeting by chance at a hospital. Dean, works for an alcohol smuggler for whom he does small/dirty business. After Castiel helps Dean with his current assignment, he ends up working alongside him for good. Neither of them is completely fine with it but when the only thing you’re trained to do is kill people, there’s not much of a choice.

Wonderful story and characterization, I can assure you’ll be swiftly sucked into this au post-war world. I’m really glad that, although what life has thrown at them, these Dean and Cas have still found each other.

Title: Yogasm
Pairing: Dean Smith/ AU Castiel
Word Count: 4,000
Rating: NC-17
Author: xnerdishh
Summary: Dean Smith is a normal guy. He goes to the gym. He works a nine to five job. He drinks his coffee just like any other guy. The only reason he took a yoga class in the first place was to hook up with this fox of a yoga instructor, Lisa Braeden, and—- wait a minute. That’s not Lisa.
Warnings: Probably the porniest porn I’ve ever written. If that offends you, don’t read. Also really bad explanations of yoga positions.
Spoilers: none/AU

Picture Dean Smith and Cas as his yoga teacher… this story was deliciously hot!

Title: Come Morning Light (AO3)
Author: carpe_verba
Warnings: (underline to read) Potentially disturbing imagery, major character death, dub-con steaming from the fact that one character doesn’t have all the information he’d need to give informed consent.
Summary: He had another one of those dreams last night, the kind that’s not about hell but leaves him shaken almost as bad. - Dean/Castiel, AU after S6, set several years later.
Rating: R
Further Notes: Written for dc_dystopia. This isn’t the fic I had in mind when I signed up. At all. That idea died on me soon after, but then I happened upon the lines quoted at the end, and, uhm. This came to mind. Also, shut up, that song’s from the THG soundtrack, which totally cancels out the fact that it’s Taylor friggin’ Swift. Ahem.
Song the title is taken from: Taylor Swift (feat. The Civil Wars) - Safe and Sound
Word Count: 7927

Take a great, compelling, haunting story to begin with and have it illustrated by two of the most talented artists in our fandom… I don’t think I need to mention that the end result is fantastic, right?

Title: Lay Your Weary Head To Rest

Rating: NC17
Word Count: 35242
Warnings: male/male sex, hurt/comfort, kidfic, tiny mention of rape in Hell, angst
Spoilers: AU from 5.14 but some things happened the same, just not the final battle.

Summary: In the final battle of Armageddon, Dean is severely injured. As he suffers through pain and multiple surgeries and the possibility of permanent disability, Castiel is granted a reward by Heaven that Dean struggles with understanding, Sam makes a decision that throws Dean for a loop, and a ten year old boy finds out his father is the man he always wished it was, but nothing like he expected. Somehow these four take something very broken and dysfunctional and make it into a family.

Gorgeous, compelling story showing Dean (and Cas) struggling to understand what a relationship with the other would entail.

Title: New Heaven Over a Brand New Sky
Author: sullymygoodname
Characters/Pairings: Dean/Cas, Sam/Jess
Rating: Mature (for language mostly)
Length: 16,300 words
Spoilers/Warnings: None, aside from a general understanding of the characters. Total AU (non-supernatural-y universe).
Summary: Reconnecting, as Sam has insisted on calling it, with the brother you haven’t seen or spoken to in almost four years is somewhat of a… It’s awkward as fuck, is what it is.

This was such a great read, I found myself engulfed in this AU world so very quickly! I loved how Sullymygoodname took the time to let us see a glimpse of the relationship between Dean and Cas before Sam arrived in town and then how she tackled all the sensitive issues throughout the narration. And I absolutely adored her characterization of Jess ♥

cautionzombies:

It’s a last-ditch effort and Dean knows it. He hasn’t seen his keys in over a week, and his brother (and insufferable roommate) is getting annoyed at having to let Dean in at three in the morning from his shift at the Roadhouse. He’s glad to have had a spare set of car keys, but man, he really wants his originals back—that AC/DC bottle opener was a gift from Sam when Dean turned twenty-one and it’s practically a family heirloom.

Not two hours after he leaves the note on the elevator, there’s a knock on the door. Glancing at the clock, Dean sees it’s just after four—not yet time for Sam to be home, and Dean isn’t expecting any visitors. When he looks through the peephole, he has to bite his tongue. It’s Gorgeous Guy, a tenant Dean sees maybe twice a week, usually in passing or in the mail room. Once Dean even gave him a jump when his car—a goddamn beautiful 1971 Corvette Stingray—stalled in front of the building sometime in the evening. Dean likes Gorgeous Guy for no real reason other than the sheer fuckability of his features—tousled dark hair, shocking blue eyes, mouth made of sin. Even his skin looks all butter-soft and gold-toned.
