Summary
They're doing that thing again, where Cas is staring at Dean with the intensity of a dog trying to remind his owner that it's past dinner time. Dean's staring right back like the first one to blink is buying the next round. Sam's aware there's a conversation going on that he isn't privy to — and he's used to it, by this point — but it's still rude.
"So, as I was saying," Sam tries to interrupt the resounding silence, "if we can just figure out a — "
"Sure," Dean says, and Sam stutters to a halt, because sure what? "I mean, yeah. Yes. Dude, you don't even have to ask."

Summary
After uncovering a salacious scandal with a stableboy, Dean Winchester’s father declares he must marry or be sent to an asylum. Dean has always been a good son and heir, but the thought of a loveless marriage is too much; he runs away to hide as a servant in Novak Abbey, a mysterious noble house on the outskirts of the remote town of Udolpho. Hidden behind the crumbling walls, Dean tends to a reclusive family that—according to the spooked locals—are burdened by a dark, unknown curse.
The handsome, intense Lord Castiel Shurley, nephew to the cruel Earl, evokes in Dean a magnetic attraction he struggles to deny. But, between Dean’s hidden identity and a curse that may be far more than local legend, the path to happiness seems dim and twisted. Deep in the woods, Dean must untangle truths from tall tales. He will have to risk far more than his reputation to find the love he deserves—and to survive the inhabitants of Novak Abbey.

Summary
Dean Winchester is sure of three things:
1) Professor Novak, who teaches his Chemistry 20B class, is hot.
2) Sam doesn’t want to ever go back into the hunting world.
3) He’s experiencing gaps in his memory and…well…nothing else really makes sense.In other words, not everything is as it seems.

Summary
(A description of the series was long coming, I think. Mainly for the sake of new readers)
It started as one fix-it fic (as 15X20 doesn't exist in my book). But, as the ideas started springing up, it has become the rather ambitious attempt to make a Supernatural Season 16. Although there's a main arc, the stories are pretty self contained for the most part and feature different situations, including monsters of the week and 'fillers'.
I hope I piqued your curiosity and you give the series a shot. Enjoy the read. :)

Summary
Castiel Novak receives a rather alarming text message from an unknown number, and what started as a simple misdial quickly turns into the greatest friendship Castiel has ever known. But Dean has many secrets, dangerous truths about the life he lives, and would like to tell Castiel exactly none of them.
A (slightly) AU, (mostly) text fic, S3 fix-it romance (of sorts).

Summary
A thousand years ago the Lightbringer duped the Shield into creating the Twisted Gate. Every seventy-five years or so, the gate opens yet again and spews more monsters into the world. The next onslaught is coming and Dean is ready to help defend his little town of Whitehill. More hunters are always needed and when Cas Novak decides that Whitehill is as good a place as any to make a stand, he’s welcomed, and especially by Dean.
But Cas Novak is keeping unimaginable secrets - he wants to shut the gate. What sort of being could have the power to do that? And why are Sam and Dean Winchester crucial to his plan?

Summary
This was what Dean did, spouted off statements that made absolutely no sense except to his own mind. And then he would grin and wait for Castiel to respond. He had initially thought that this was a demonic tick developed over forty years in hell. But it hadn't disappeared with the rest of the demonic attributes. Dean continued to be incomprehensible.
OR the 5 times Dean said he needed Cas and the 1 time Cas realized what that meant.

Summary
"When his eyes first open, there is nothing but darkness. Not the velvety, deep black of night, but the steely, thin murk of nothingness. Of cold.
Of death. Of Death.
Somehow, it feels like coming home."
Dean dies to become Death, but then - things go horribly wrong. Welcome to Supernatural - Season 17 (because Season 16 belongs to the fandom).

Summary
“Come, now,” he heard Cas rasp. It wasn’t coming from the phone anymore, but from right outside the door.
Dean lowered the phone and took a hesitant step forward, his bare foot sinking into the damp, rotting carpet. “Cas, what’s wrong? I don’t … You’re not making any sense.”
“I have something for you,” Cas said, and this time it came as a whisper in a language Dean didn’t know, yet somehow understood.
Dean froze in his tracks, his hand hovering just over the doorknob. He wanted so desperately for it to be Cas on the other side of this door, but he knew deep down that something was horribly, horrifically wrong.
The rise of a new, hands-off God has unintended consequences, and the promise of free will reaches further than anyone intended. In the absence of the one who'd locked them away, and beneath the cracked and abused surface of the Midwest, an Old God stirs. Here, death is not the peace you're looking for, and there's one person left to save.
Or: family don't end in blood, and neither does Dean Winchester.

Summary
“Can I draw your plants?”
“Can you...” Castiel drags his eyes away from the myriad of intersecting geometric patterns etched across the man’s arms. “What?”
The man holds up his notebook. “Can I draw your plants? I won’t get in the way.” He offers his free hand with an irresistible grin. “I’m Dean.”
And that’s how it starts.

It's the late 1990s, and Duluth, Minnesota is an economic shipwreck. Summertime, however, makes its inhabitants forget about its winters. There's promise and excitement in the warm, humid air and the lights twinkle as a backdrop to the lake, as Duluth transforms into a laid-back beach town for a few months.
Dean, a deckhand on the ore boats, is taking a summer off for the first time in years. He hasn't seen his friends in ages and is eager to join them for another wild summer.
One night, he sees the aurora borealis hovering above the dark waters of the lake.
Or at least, that's what he thinks he sees.
A love story about accidental friendships, eternity, and life lived on the edge of the water.

Summary
Castiel is an Oneiroi, or at least he used to be. Confined to a desk for the last two hundred years, he's suddenly yanked from his quasi-retirement for a new assignment, Dean Winchester. The only problem is, he can't bring himself to do what he's commanded to do, befriending the young boy instead. It's only by accident that he finds out that Dean is a part of some larger plot, one that could mean the end of the world.
