    "The kitchen smells like cinnamon and glue."

    COMPLETED.
     
    --

    Suptober2025:
    A story about the "There will be peace when you are done" part they all deserved (us too), but without all that dying business.

    Join as we follow along for a month in Dean and Cas's life set five years post canon, where they're in an established relationship at the start of the story, and we'll be peeking into their past, how they came here, and what happened in the past five years. 

    What can we expect? Family-feels, softness, retirement, happiness and joy, smut, adventure, angst, and we'll see what happens with each day's prompt. A happy ending is guaranteed, but the boys have to get there.

    Summary

    They did it, they ended Chuck's storyline. They finally had free will. Everything Dean had hoped for, for so long.

    Well, almost.

    It weighed on him to know that his every move was overlooked by some cosmic force, but even more that it was controlled and calculated. He spent nights awake questioning his choices but even more his feelings. What were the points of those feelings in God's plan? Watching him suffer? Coming up with theories after theories, going to some dark places he tried so hard to deny. But no more.

    or

    Dean has been in love with Cas for years and Jack brings him back from the Empty.

    Summary

    Castiel comes back, human, and suddenly the world feels different. Dean calls him Castiel at first for fun, to mask the weight of everything, but it doesn’t stay a joke. With every repetition, it becomes something else—tender, binding.

    OR
    A story about finding each other, quiet mornings, stumbling into domesticity, farmer’s markets, paint stains and coffee rings, maybe one last case, and the raw intimacy of learning each other without walls. In small rituals, they discover what it means to live without blood and fear, and to love without it.

    Or
    A quiet love story about humanity, healing, and the way a name can mean everything.

    or
    they get together, kiss, and have filthy sex, too.

    --
    "The first time Dean says his full name, it startles him, deep, hits him like a thunderbolt. His eyes widen before he can stop it, and the word strokes something ancient in him, as old as the last wisps of his grace holding his skin together, and yet, embarrassingly human. It lands somewhere deep in his chest, somewhere to the top of his lungs, igniting him like a dropped match in dry grass. And something—heat or want maybe—flickers to life.
    Dean doesn't look away. Then he says it again, slower."

    Summary

    After Chuck falls and Jack becomes the new God, Jack makes a deal with the Empty to open Heaven’s gates and free all of the fallen angels, including Castiel. Castiel then faces a difficult decision: stay in Heaven as a restored angel with his wings, or return to Earth as a human man with a soul.

    After making his choice, Castiel steps into his new life with real purpose. He chooses Dean and returns to Earth as a man, his Grace replaced by a human soul. Together, they face the everyday ups and downs of mortal life. This is a look at the world after Chuck - a glimpse into what life might have been like for Castiel and the Winchesters after gaining true free will.

    Summary

    The word slips out because he’s half asleep and they’re arguing over the last dregs of coffee in the pot.

    “Make your own, honeybun,” Dean mutters into his mug, hand clamped around the plastic handle of the carafe that he holds above his head.

    Cas asks, in a voice like a man who’s discovered a new breed of skittish animal, “Did you just call me a ‘honeybun?’”

    Uh. Roll back the footage and double-check—yeah, he did.

    Summary

    Dean saves Castiel from the Empty, but that fixes nothing.

    You do not walk into the void with a human soul and emerge unaltered.

    You do not walk into the void with a human soul, period.

    But Dean did. Worse, Dean did it for Castiel. To rescue him. Out of friendship, fraternity. Out of love. Just—not the right kind.

    Perhaps it's wrong of him, perhaps it's unfair and petty and all-too-human, but.

    Castiel resents him for it.

    Summary

    After Jack has absorbed Chuck's powers, Dean asks him for help. Dean risks his neck to get into the Empty and rescue Castiel. Dean's been haunted by Cas's death and unable to move on. He's able to get Cas back, the trouble is that there's a lot that's still unsaid between them. On the other hand, there's a lot that has been said between them that they are also having trouble processing. It's causing friction between them as they navigate their new circumstances together. The two are struggling to get on the same page and to understand one another. To make matters worse, Sam keeps sticking his nose where it doesn't belong and it's really starting to grate on Dean's nerves. What does he have to do to make Sam understand this is serious, and seriously personal too!? He's going to get that moose to take him seriously one way or another.

    Summary

    This isn’t the first time he’s been in the bunker with just Sam and Dean, but last time there was room for improvement. It hadn’t at all seemed likely at first that he’d be able to show Dean he could be worthwhile, but there was at least scope for it, and in the end it had come true, at least temporarily. Now, he’s already pulled out all the stops within his ability – nearly died over and over – he has nothing more to give Dean.
    And for all the unfathomability of his powers now, they don’t reach the one place that matters.


    After he gets Chuck's powers, Jack decides to go back to the bunker rather than trying to rule heaven alone. He's not having a good time.

    Summary

    Chuck has been defeated, and Dean and Sam are finally free. Freedom is all Dean wanted, or so he thought, but life has felt like a chore lately. Might have something to do with the fact that Cas is up in Heaven and hasn’t so much as stopped by to say hello since Jack busted him out of the Empty.

    Everything changes when sinkholes begin to appear all over the globe and the air is awash with whispers of a strange, powerful entity. It turns out that in rearranging the afterlife, Jack and Cas have woken something that should never have been woken. And, according to a book of prophecy in the Men of Letters library, it’s up to Dean and Cas to sort it out… together.

    Should be fine, right?

    Eventually, Michael makes it out of the Empty. The how doesn't really matter. He's more focused on what happens afterwards.

    Summary

    Castiel and his garrison are given a mission: saving the Righteous Man from Hell. He never imagined touching this soul would break something in him, turning him from an emotionless soldier to something that wants and craves and feels.

    Years later, once he’s saved, he’s allowed to touch this soul again.

    Summary

    “It's coming on Christmas
    They're cutting down trees
    They're putting up reindeer
    And singing songs of joy and peace
    Oh, I wish I had a river
    I could skate away on…”

    Summary

    They get Cas back. Dean doesn’t intend to let him go ever again. More important: he’s going to tell him how he feels and set straight a couple of records. If his brother lets him talk. If Cas listens to him.

    Yeah. Easier said than done.

    Dean manages to tell what he has on his heart somehow and now, all he and Cas have to do, is to enjoy their upgraded relationship.

    Summary

    Now God is defeated and Heaven has a new guideline, Castiel is working dutifully among the other angels. Too dutifully for Metatron's opinion. Castiel isn’t any angel! He can't fall into line like this, fading from Earth, from Dean’s existence, as if he never existed. It's not an admissible end for his story. He needs to come back to his senses.

    Fortunately, Metatron has the perfect idea to make him realize he can’t give up his life on Earth so easily...

    Summary

    They defeated God, they are free, but everyone is dead. It doesn’t feel like a win.

    Dean is grieving many people, and he finds himself thinking about his daughter again. He failed her, like he failed everyone else, but maybe... maybe he can find a way to fix this.

    No one else needs him here anyway.
