Summary
They were at a bar, and Castiel was restless.
Cas had made a deal, but he was struggling to remember what it had been for. And over the past weeks and months, the feeling was becoming less and less temporary.
Maybe it was time to stop thinking, and just work this goddamned, inconsequential case like it would be his last.
(Or, the fic wherein Cas has had enough of keeping everything in).

Summary
“Hey Cas?” Dean’s words bob like drowning apples in his throat.
“Yes, Dean?”
Dean tensely holds the back of his neck like he could hold his own identity together with nothing more than skin, bone and cartilage. “Shit,” he forces himself to exhale. “How do you know you’re you?”

Summary
Featuring angelic crash courses, fluff and angst and emotions alike, Dean dealing with what he is inside, and a heaping pile of what I hope is sufficiently descriptive writing (all wrapped up in a winding, suspenseful plot):
Dean Winchester has always prided himself on his humanity. On being who he is, and not living on the same side of the line as the supernatural beings he'd been raised to hunt.
But what options remain when it's revealed that what he'd known himself to be was never the truth?
Dean's faith in who - and what - he is will be tested by new truths and shadowed by new strengths, and challenges he's never faced will stir and come to light (just in time for him to face them head on).
Will he find it within himself to fight and win?
Or is balance not in the cards for a being with power he's never before had to comprehend?
Author's note: This story is NOT DEAD. Just on a slow posting schedule due to health reasons. :')

Summary
“You don’t know what you’re talking about, Sam,” Dean said at last, his voice shuttered. “I’m a lot of things that the holy rollers don’t like, but I am not that. There’s nothing wrong with people being like that, but I am not one of them. You got that?” He exhaled through his teeth. “I’m—”
He stopped, when he realized that his next words weren’t his, they were John’s.
////
Dean looks at the version of him from HunterCorp and he sees somebody else. But then he realizes that some of the things he’s got buried within his stained, bruised mind aren’t skeletons in the world of his doppelganger’s glass closet. They’re alive and well; in a way that some parts of our Dean can never be.
Or, the fic wherein HunterCorp Dean is comfortably bisexual, and we, via Sam and Cas and a little HunterCorp Dean backstory, acknowledge the depth and complexity of canon Dean’s emotions (and why he doesn’t trust himself with who he is).

Summary
And smooth as sweet vermouth // Though, honey, it may seem impossible // That's the gospel truth
-/-/-/-/-
When the end is all but nigh, we see Castiel summon a crossroads demon with a photograph of himself in a familiar cowboy hat, a candid taken recognizably on the case in Dodge City soon after his first return from the Empty. It was maintained carefully, and Cas had had it on him, even though he hadn’t know he’d be needing it.
But what is the story of that picture?
And what did it mean to Dean Winchester: the only person who could’ve taken it?

Summary
The universe where I use HunterCorp!Dean from 15x13 as an excuse to make Dean think long and hard about his identity and sexuality. Rife with meta, character study, and emotional dissection.

Summary
InkOfEmrys's seraph!Dean universe: wherein Dean finds out he was always a species of angel, and is reborn with angelic grace.
Angel things! Emotions! Plot, so much plot, but arguably just as much feel-good self indulgence.
Dumping ground for main series works, and shoot-off oneshots/in-universe fics. Order/connection specified in work summaries.

Summary
“You’re distracting.”
“Huh,” Wilson manages. His hands tense on his folded arms. “Is it my dazzling good looks?”
“You’re an anomaly,” he replies immediately in a snarl.
“I’m- I’m so sorry, I’ll try to avoid 'being an anomaly' next time.”
What happens when two best friends love each other to the point of hating each other? They try to date and sulk about it.
