Things haven't really been the same since Cas screwed up in season 6 and his relationship with Dean was completely destroyed. I still read fic, but it didn't really help because the situation was so dire and, let's face it, it was depressing - and season 7 didn't make things any better. But after that finale...things are starting to look up; They're getting back together.



So, in honor of Dean and Castiel rediscovering their love (in Purgatory of all places) I will resume my recs:

What really did the trick was JIB8 (here).

As a hunter Mary is determined to protect her sons from the evil she has run from her whole life - the same evil that took John. But Dean also trusts his protection to the angel in a trench coat he talks to in his dreams. Through years of tribulation and uncertainty, the Winchesters (plus a corgi that might be magic and an angel that may not be real) must fight monsters, demons, and even fate itself to survive as a family.

Purgatory is nothing, a swirling void of darkness, danger and death. When Dean closes his eyes, exhausted from the never ending struggle to stay alive with an angel who has checked out, he is viscerally aware of Castiel beside him, staring aimlessly into the night that never ends. But when he opens his eyes to sunlight pouring in through a window, a soft bed under him, a life he doesn’t remember with a family he shouldn’t have, and memories of Purgatory clawing at his mind, he begins to wonder just how much more life will try and take from him. Good things don’t just happen… do they?

Resigning myself to colorectal surgery, I bought Two and a Half Men on iTunes and finally started combining the list of unread Destiel bookmarks from Firefox and Safari! If I'm going to be bed-ridden for MONTHS, I might as well give myself something to do...

~*~

This medication has been a god-send! I started it the day Supernatural came back for the second half of Season 13! Unfortunately, I only went back to work for a few weeks before the stress and anxiety of the last two years caught up with me, causing sever episodes of vertigo. I'm scared to go back!

In my abundance of spare time I watched a lot of Netflix and Hulu, waiting for the constant dizziness to pass. After two months, I decided if I was going to feel dizzy anyway, why not read some Destiel? (like I'd wanted to the entire time).

I've always been a strong believer in watching new Supernatural episodes the second it airs, which I eventually let slide to the day it airs when work interfered. I've just been so busy that I haven't been able to completely immerse myself in the show for a very, very long time. Now I only miss it by choice if I'm seeing a "midnight" movie with my brother, which still allows me the opportunity to be fully involved, commercial free on my DVR!

Funny how getting into Supernatural again has me back reading fic like a bad addiction! As far as they've come, canon Dean and Cas just isn't enough! All my bookmarks are from Season 5, and I wasn't able find much of anything from the last few seasons on LiveJournal. I have no idea how to used Tumblr, so I went to the source: Archive of Our Own.

I started off going through the latest fics without much satisfaction before filtering out completed explicit fics. I'd been thinking for a while of making my way through all of them, starting with the very first stories published, bookmarking everything and weeding them out as I went.

Well, that didn't last long. I've been re-watching from Season 9 with my mom so she can catch up. She watched this finale. I wanted to take a week off catch-up, exhausted by the show itself. That only lasted a few days, but I've been enjoying Dean as he was and trying not to think about what he did...

It's the only thing keeping me going. I've chosen to ignore the finale completely and just indulge in fanfiction for the summer. I don't wanna think about...I have theories. Which are also keeping me going. Knowing there are ways to fix this but...for now: fic. And I'm diving in head first!



Since the Season 13 finale, I've gone through quite a few fics and have more than enough to rec. So I'm adding them here now! I love them all and I can't wait to re-read them with the same ferocity and desperation as I do all the rest.

Tags don't bother me now, since they are "established" as far as I'm concerned, and I love that there are still "first time" fics. I've always held my faves in high regard and that definitely hasn't changed. My standards may have even been raised. I forgot how many crappy pics it takes to find one that blows your mind, touches your heart...and makes your toes curl.

"Okay, definitely some mojo on this ring. This is not cool."

Preen | NC-17 | AU | established | by boxparade
Dean wakes up hard with a hand on his cock, but he cottons on quick enough to keep on pretending he’s asleep. He knows Cas has a thing for this, waking him up with soft, sure touches and peppered kisses, in the early morning hours when everything is warm and softly lit.

Castiel always wonders why Dean is going to the bathroom to "take care of business". After an explanation from Sam, he realizes the joys of masturbation.

Sam frowned in annoyance. “Wait. You want me to read this in the car while you and Cas do it, don’t you.”

Dean grinned. “Well, it doesn’t have to be the car.”

Pressure Makes It Wetter |  NC-17 | established | by iDiru
Mid-coitus, Castiel has to pee. Dean does not give two shits. Castiel is unamused.
_______________________________________________________________

A kiss. Four lips, a couple of seconds. It's a strange request, but not really that much to ask. He's kissed guys before, it's not about that, and if Cas thinks it'll help . . . He nods. "Yeah, okay."

Stay | NC-17 | 9.03 | first time | by maraudersgirl47
Cas looked up at Dean seated above him. He could feel that prickle beginning behind the backs of his eyes, one of those new weaknesses that he had developed start to tug at him, as Dean’s words ran through him colder than any blade.

Dean goes to sleep in a motel room in Texarkana, and he wakes up 17 years old, in his childhood bedroom in Lawrence, Kansas, 1996. He has no idea how he got there, why his parents are still alive, why his brother is an adorable freshman with no memory of his adult life, and why the only ally he has in this place is the angel he left behind in Purgatory – somehow also 17 years old. They have to get out, that's the important thing. Only, falling in love with his angel wasn't a part of the plan....

Truly | NC-17 | first time | by Zen
For the past week, Dean hadn’t been able to keep his hands off his dick. He’d been horny all the time, and no matter how many times he jerked off, how many random women he hooked up with, it didn’t get better. He didn’t remember it being this bad even when he was a teenager.

Cursed object fuck or die trope, Dean Winchester's self worth issues, and the love and devotion of Castiel.

The Choices I've Made (2/2) | NC-17 | 9.03 | first time | by Lopsided_Whiskey_Grin
"You can't stay." Words that defined a choice Dean never thought he'd have to make. Words that defined a choice Cas made for him.
_______________________________________________________________

Castiel's first time.
_______________________________________________________________

All Dean has to do is track down a decent porno for Cas to watch, help him find his sensitive spots, then hang back and let him do his thing. Easy-peasy. No homo. ...Absolutely no homo at all.

It's Different | NC-17 | 8.22 | first time | by CoffeeDrip
Dean shows Castiel the difference between having sex and making love the night before he is locked in Heaven for eternity.
_______________________________________________________________

When Dean wakes up female, he and Sam struggle to find a cause. To find a solution, Dean has to expand his horizons: new ride, new bodily functions, and a whole new awareness of angels.

Desperation | NC-17 | first time | by xxenjoy
"Six times," Dean grits out, and Sam just continues to look at him, waiting. Fine, if he wants to know, he can damn well know. "I've jerked off six times since I woke up, and it won't fucking go down."

Number One: Dean would definitely never appear on a soap opera.
Number Two: Dean Winchester did not wear makeup.
And Number Three: He was not gay!
God, Cas, whoever was listening - Please get them the hell out of here.

Movie Night | NC-17 | s.9 | by xxenjoy
Movie night was every Wednesday night, providing they weren't on a case and Dean wasn't going to break with tradition just because Sam wasn't home. They usually grabbed a few beers, maybe a pizza and sat around in the makeshift living room they'd put together in one of the spare bedrooms watching anything either of the brothers thought Cas needed to see. Tonight was Labyrinth and both of them were already slightly tipsy when Cas leaned back against his chest.

A Room of His Own (Or Not) | NC-17 | s.9 | first time | by Valinde
Dean took a deep breath and reassessed the situation. He was in bed with a guy, sure, and technically they were snuggling, but it was Cas. The guy had absolutely no reference on what was appropriate physical contact between two dudes sharing a bed in the... normal, completely unsexy, no-funny-business, way.

We Can Watch the White Doves Go | NC-17 | 10.03 | first time | by xylodemon
"Wait," Dean says, just as the door snicks closed. It comes out as barely whisper; he clears his throat and tries again, a little louder this time. "Cas, I -- wait."

Can't Fight This Feeling Anymore (6/6) | NC-17 | 8.23 | first time | by Lyekka
Attempting to help Castiel embrace his newfound humanity, Dean embarks on a mission to finally get his friend laid. Plot derails quickly and some shenanigans and awkward sexual tension ensue.

No Better Love | NC-17 | 12.10 | established | by bluefallenfandomwallflowers
It takes him over another edge, fingers reaching for Dean’s face, the perfect lilt of his cheekbones and the swoop of his lips, blood red from Cas’ own, from what he needs and gives because there is no better love and no love will ever compare to this.

Their Strange Chemistry | NC-17 | 8.08 | first time | by sonofabitch_awesome
Something has to give here. They’ve been approaching this thing from both sides too closely for five and a half years now. Six and a half, Dean corrects himself. And he can’t let go of this man. He can’t handle another period of time where Cas is dead from ancient shapeshifting monsters, or lost in his own mind to amnesia or straight up insanity, or running away from him every single day “to keep him safe” (fuck Dean’s safety, it’s not like danger is anything new for him), or kept a literal world away. Or teetering on the verge of a major breakdown now, apparently.

So, in the end, he has no eloquent argument for why he should give in or not.

In the end, everything boils down to Fuck it.

Hot Like Ice | NC-17 | first time | by reluctant
"I… I can't feel my toes. Or my fingertips. Is that bad?"

Dean swore under his breath. "Uh, it ain't great, buddy. Can you move 'em?"

Cas furrowed his brow in concentration. "I don't know. It burns. Why does cold burn?"

"It just does, Cas." He picked up Cas' hand, and his fingers felt like ice. He peered at Cas' face, and caught a tinge of blue on his lips. "Shit. OK, Cas, we might be gettin' into territory where you think about usin' some grace. Not on me, I always run a little hot, but you're lookin' like you're gettin' hypothermia."

"I don't think I can," Cas said slowly. "There's so little left, and I'm so cold..."

"Shit." Dean scrubbed his hand over his face, then came to a decision. "Take off your clothes."

Fight or Feed | NC-17 | s.10 | by reluctant
"Okay," Dean finally blurted out without quite meaning to, and Cas looked at him questioningly. "Okay -- yeah. If you think you can help me figure out how to -- how to fight the Mark, without feedin' it -- yeah, okay. I'll try it."

Dean and Cas hit the bar, and absolutely nothing goes according to plan.
