    Summary

    Dean Winchester was twenty-six years old when a car accident killed his father and left him paralysed from the waist down. A year and a half later, Dean is in a wheelchair and lives in a care home in Kansas, where he spends his days waiting to die. It's only when Castiel Novak starts volunteering at the care home that Dean starts to wonder if a changed life always equals a ruined one.

    Summary

    Sam and Dean Winchester are hunters. Finding new supernatural cases, solving mysteries, helping innocents to survive—things most ordinary people can barely even imagine—are all part of their daily routine. Life is sometimes easy, sometimes tough, but almost always dangerous. When they get their new appointment in Nevada, they hit the road without thinking twice.
    The only thing is—it’s the fall of 1861, the Civil War has been ongoing for several months, and the enemy is nearly invincible. In a world without cell phones and cars, the only gear the Winchesters have is their black stagecoach and precious Colt gun. And a weird local preacher who is trying to help them.

    Summary

    The religious “vigilante” serial killer, Emmanuel Novak, known as the Morning Star Murderer, has been captured and has confessed to over fifty murders, though his actual victim count is projected to be more than Gary Ridgeway and Ted Bundy combined.

    When his family moves to Lawrence, Kansas, in an attempt to get a fresh start, they don’t know what to expect from the local residents; and though they aren’t surprised by the air of distrust, they are surprised to find out why.

    When the wayward, fearful Castiel Novak meets the loyal, trustful Dean Winchester, he never expects to fall in love with him.

    Summary

    Sergeant Dean Winchester has a job to do. Clear the streets of a little French town called Bayeux. It’s a show of presence, really. The enemy is gone. Perhaps it’s for the best since he’s never been one much for killing.
    It’s a job, though, and he gets by. There’s really not much more to it than that.
    ~
    Two years after returning from war, Lieutenant Castiel Novak is tired. Hungry, too, and he has this perpetual headache that has everything to do with the bottle of brandy on his shelf, and not a thing to do with anything else.
    His life is falling apart, but he has his kitty, Charlie, and he has himself. He gets by. What more could he need?
    But life is more than ‘getting by’ and maybe it takes a few catastrophes for them to see it. Maybe it takes a music box figurine on Castiel’s doorstep, or a desperate brother looking for answers.
    Maybe it takes a little bit of magic.

     

    Two soldiers, two strangers, separated by time, distance, and life between living, brought together by circumstances neither of them can control, and changing them both beyond measure.

    Summary

    A man named Cas wakes up in 2003 with no memories, but he's able to piece together a few things:

    Supernatural creatures exist, and most of them will hurt innocent civilians if he doesn't stop them; he has abilities that no human hunter should have, but he knows enough about human hunters to keep that to himself, and finally; he keeps running into another hunter named Dean Winchester, who must be as lonely as he is if he's willing to put up with those former facts long enough to help Cas unravel the mystery of who (or what) he really is.

    For his part, Dean's still (not) dealing with Sam's departure to Stanford, and figures distracting himself with a bit of mystery and intrigue is as harmless as it gets, right? Right.
