Summary
“Satoru?” The word rings, fuzzy in his ears as it whines like tinnitus, familiar and heart stopping.
‘I’m dead.’ He can’t even hear his own thoughts over the loudness of the world, staggering where he stands, eyes still fixated on the sky, on the sun. ‘I’m dead, I died, I felt my heart stop, this can’t be, it can’t-’
“Hey,” it comes again, a little more urgent than before, a little closer, another hammer to his ears and all the noise shrieking behind his eyes. He recoils hard enough to go stumbling as a hand reaches for him, covered in flesh rather than empty bone, tan and recognizable. Unbelievable.
There’s something wet trickling from his nose. Bile stings on the back of his tongue. The words dissolve into the rest of the white noise as he stares up at the blue of the sky, and tries to remember if he’d ever had a hallucination as bright as this.
‘I have to be dead,’ he thinks. Somehow, he isn’t.
Or: Gojo Satoru goes back in time. He makes a couple of changes for the better.

Suguru brings that curse to his lips, swallows down the remains of his best friend, his one and only. He doesn't know if it's Satoru's soul or just a mindless curse he's ingesting, but still, he can't part with it.

Summary
Names had a peculiar sort of power. Naming something formed its nature, in a way. There had been no angel of the eastern gate before the Almighty spoke the name “Aziraphale;” a fallen angel had not become a creeping serpent until he heard the name “Crawly.”
But nature also informed the connotations of a name. The thousands of cheated merchants, scandalized priests and scathingly-reviewed poets who had uttered the name “Crowley!” in anger throughout the years had given the name its dark and bitter taste.
Anthonys, however, remained relentlessly ordinary. Anthonys were greengrocers, maths teachers, nervous and lovestruck young men who wore glasses and could hardly speak to the objects of their affections.
If “Crowley” was ninety percent pure cacao, “Anthony” was at best milk chocolate.

Sometimes, Aziraphale would wonder just what Crowley’s pupils would do if he were to— oh, but that was dangerous ground.

Summary
Crowley raises one dark eyebrow at him. “You sound as though you’ve got something in mind already, angel.”
His eyes are golden in the sunlight, and his red hair is plaited loosely down his back. It sends Aziraphale back to 1186, to that spring wedding in a sprawling field of eagerly blooming jonquils. He thinks of how beautiful Crowley looked there in all his sunrise colors.
Aziraphale reaches out to touch a rogue curl that escaped the plait. He can feel Crowley holding his breath.
“I suppose I do,” Aziraphale admits quietly.

Summary
Dean is three years sober when Cas comes back into town.
~~~
For a moment, they just stare at each other. Dean, once again, has to swallow the urge to offer to swallow something else. It's very hard to resist the gut-wrenching pull of want that hooks in his chest whenever he looks at Cas. And to think, he used to have him, used to be able to act on that want.
God, he's so fucking stupid.
Well, there's no point in kicking himself three years later for shit he can't change. He'll just sit right here and pretend that his fingers aren't twitching with the urge to reach out and touch. He can't do that anymore, and it's his own damn fault.
"Three years ago," Cas prompts.
Dean huffs a weak laugh. "Yeah. Eventful."

Summary
Dean doesn’t know what to do. Dean wants to say stay with me, stay with me and never leave. Dean wants to apologize. Dean wants to set his mouth at the hollow of Cas’s throat as gently as he’s ever done anything, feel the beat of Cas’s heart beneath his lips. Dean is so lonely, and he’s missed him so much.
*
A year and a half after Cas is saved from the Empty, Dean is living out his days alone on a piece of farmland in rural Kansas. One day, Cas shows up on his porch.

Summary
Dean Winchester, the Crown Prince of Lawrence, is going to die. He has killed many dragons in his lifetime, but the final Prince of Hell, Alastair, has managed to capture him. The human prince has resigned himself to death in Alastair's cave, to the rest of his short life being filled with blood and agony.
One day, however, another dragon appears.
Dragon Castiel only wants to end the War on Syphon, the bloody conflict between dragons and humans that has been going on for centuries. He has lost many of his friends and brothers to said war, and he hopes that he will finally be accepted by his fellow dragons if he manages to end it. He rescues Dean Winchester simply because he knows that the only way to stop the war is to work with the other side. Dean Winchester is a legendary warrior, even among dragons, and Castiel hopes to help him kill the final Prince of Hell.
He does not, however, account for how attractive Dean is. Nor how much Dean makes him smile. With time running out and the death tally rising higher and higher, there is absolutely no time to fall in love with the enemy.
At least, that's what Castiel keeps telling himself.

Summary
Castiel once spends three days reading greedily across an entire reference shelf in the library. He reads the volumes from right to left, Kevin from left to right. Sam grins at them both. Dean mutters something about nerd multiplication and continues to play something on his phone. But he’s also the one who leaves cups of coffee at their elbows.
(Kevin gives up first, and declares Castiel the winner. Castiel wasn’t aware that it was a contest, and somehow that makes it more satisfying.)

Summary
As starting pitcher for the Kansas City Royals and at the top of his game, Dean Winchester is making headlines. His curveball sends batters back to the dugout before they know what hits them, but if you ask Dean, the real secret to his success isn’t in the pitches he throws but in the man standing behind the plate, his catcher, Castiel Novak.
While in college and training for the big leagues, Dean never expected that a chance encounter with a one-night-stand would end up changing the course of his career, but Cas has never stopped surprising him. They’re the perfect match, both on and off the field, facing down everything from shitty fathers to the MLB draft. Everything they do, they do it together. So when Dean takes the mound with twenty-seven outs and a perfect game on the horizon, he knows Cas is in it with him.
Baseball is a language of love, and for Dean Winchester and Castiel Novak, it always has been.

Summary
Castiel is not a very good witch.
He's just not.
He struggles with potions, illusions, divination - everything that makes a witch respectable, and his familiar - Dean - definitely deserves better than him.
When Dean falls under a curse that seems to affect his shape-shifting abilities, Castiel and Dean begin to run out of money, and Castiel decides the best thing they can do is go after a rare Moonflower to help get themselves back on their feet.
The journey could be dangerous, especially considering Castiel's less-than-ideal abilities and Dean's curse, but with a little luck, it will all be worth it in the end.- Language:

Summary
Stede knows from experience, from a sword piercing his side for far too long, how it feels when your skin starts trying to heal around a blade, when you know you’re going to have to tear it open again, when its only crime was just wanting to save you.
And maybe Stede isn’t some nightmare pirate, and maybe he’s not the vision that Blackbeard inspires, and maybe he’s not scary. Maybe he’s not made of smoke, with glowing eyes; maybe he’s not a hero, or a villain, or anyone but some poor shit who thinks he knows what he’s doing when nobody really ever knows.
But he knows two things: he knows that he will kill for Ed; and he knows that this man knows that, too.

Summary
Dean is fragile—like the silence that has made home in his throat. Sometimes, in the dead of the night, when it’s just him and his cold, dark and empty room, Dean would reach up and feel his own face—a baseless need to make sure he hasn’t turned into mist or whatever. It’s not that Dean’s lost his voice or anything—he can feel it down in his throat, though it’s rattling in his chest, stuck and unmoving. Every time he tries to speak, the weight of each word presses down on his chest until he feels his ribs ache, like he’s having compressions done on him and his bones are starting to cave under the pressure. There’s something vaguely familiar about this feeling—an urge to make himself as small as he can until he sinks into the walls. Everything around him feels out of place, and a size bigger—the bunker, his room, his own skin—with too many empty spaces like an ill-fitting suit. He could pull a few words out of his throat if he pushes hard enough, but Dean’s so goddamn exhausted.
But, even when he feels like a shadow of who he used to be, Cas is still the one thing that makes him feel more alive than his own burdened beating heart.
***
After Michael, Dean stops talking.
