    Summary

    Dean prayed often. He was never exactly sure what it was he was praying to, or for. But there was something about the act that comforted him. Up until now, his prayers went unheard and unanswered. Until a certain angel visits him, aiding in his time of need.

    Summary

    There was an odd sort of symmetry to it. This is how their story began: Dean climbing out of a coffin. This is how their story would end: Castiel being put into one.

    Summary

    Cas loosened his tie.

    Damn, I wonder if he’d wrap that tie around my—NONONO. SOMETHING ELSE. Ghouls, yeah, ghouls are fucking gross, think about ghouls. How many ghoul cases have we worked?

    Dean forced himself to count each ghoul he could remember, hoping that Cas hadn’t been able to read anything.

    “Dean, are you alright?” Cas asked, and Dean damn near jumped out of his skin.

    “Yeah,” he said, as nonchalantly as he could. “Why?”

    ~~~~~

    Or, 4 times Dean prays to Castiel, +1 time they talk about it

    Summary

    It’s strange how five little words can change your life forever.

    “I’m in love with Dean.”

    The words aren’t even directed at anyone… rather just said vaguely into the air.

    ...

    Big romantic gestures had never been his thing. But he knows, as much as Dean hates to admit it… he loves chick-flicks. He wants someone who will be over the top just because they love him. Maybe that’s why Sam hadn’t just told Cass to abandon the whole idea.

    Cass and Dean are already sitting in the kitchen when he wakes up and Dean is half surprised that Dean hasn’t already started bar hopping for women. When he whispers his concerns to Cass, the angel just whispers back: “I asked him to stay.”

    Sam is still standing there awestruck when Dean’s teeth make a loud clank.

    “Cass, did you forget a cinnamon stick or something in here.”

    Sam glances across at Cass who nervously leans against the table, analysing Dean’s every move. He assumes Cass is waiting till Dean is done with the pie to talk to him about his feelings.

    “Cass what the hell is this?” Dean’s voice is a combination of breathy, hopeful and terrified.

    Sam whips his gaze around to find Dean holding a silver ring coated in half-chewed pie.

    Summary

    Dean prayed often after Castiel died. Always unanswered, always through pain and tears. Until one day, Dean prays one last time.

    Summary

    “Right,” Dean says. He nods to himself and tries to believe that Cas means it when he says he’s going to stay. “Right, and Jack, he brought you back?”

    Cas smiles softly. “Yes, it took him time to figure out how to use his powers in a way that he could reach me, but he succeeded. We had our own reunion and discussion before he brought me here.” He looks back at Dean. “You have, apparently, been quite the talk of Heaven.”

    Dean frowns and finally pulls away. He would be worried, maybe is a little bit, because when do they ever really catch a fucking break, but Cas is looking at him with something so fragile in his eyes. Something light and hopeful and sad all at the same time.

    “What’d I do now?”

    Cas looks at him like his heart is breaking. “You prayed my name to every angel in Heaven for six days straight.”

    or the one where dean grieves in his own way until jack swings a little power to give dean another shot at that love confession

    Summary

    “I want you.” Dean’s voice is quiet, breaking with anticipation and anxiety all at once. “If you want me.”

    Castiel nods, takes a step back, and pushes his own shirt, unbuttoned and wrinkled, off his shoulders. “This is disobedience—this is me disobeying another God. This is me betraying Heaven and falling all over for you again, isn’t it?”

    “I don’t know. But this is me telling you that the thing you wanted, you had all along. You had me all along.” For a moment, Dean feels like he can’t breathe, the creeping reality that maybe Castiel will leave him again sinking through him. Maybe this time it won’t be the Empty crawling over Castiel and dragging him away, maybe this time Castiel will be taken forever by a furious God.

    [In a dark barn in Ohio, a dying Dean Winchester prays to Castiel to save him. But Castiel - saved from the Empty from new God Jack Kline - is under orders not to interfere with humanity. Castiel disobeys, heals Dean in a slow recovery that leaves Dean craving more than just Castiel's grace. Part 1 of a series about saving TFW 2.0 from the fates given to them by the finale].

    Summary

    At first, Dean prayed to Cas because he was the only one who answered. Then he prayed to Cas because he was the only angel he'd actually want showing up. And now he's on his knees, looking up at him and asking, "what do you think, Cas? Should I start praying?"

    -

    Dean accidentally gave Cas a prayer kink.

    Summary

    In the darkest depths of the ocean, sealed into the ma'lak box with Chuck trapped behind the Mark, Castiel loses the battle against God's rage. When Sam and Dean find Castiel on a dark patch of highway— the Mark missing and his grace weak— he cannot speak.

    It rains. It rains and it rains and it rains. It is a Great Flood.

    In order to stop God, save the world, and resolve the issues simmering between them for years, Castiel and Dean need to communicate.

    Perhaps they should build an ark instead.

    Summary

    Sam finds himself stuck in a hole in the ground with a broken leg and accumulating blood loss. He has no way to call for help as his cellphone is either dead, broken or there’s no service (I haven’t decided, it works whichever way is chosen). He does think about praying to Castiel but decides not to because he’s just “the boy with the demon blood”. Castiel ends up saving him anyway and reassures him that he’s not forsaken.

    Summary

    “This is the best part,” Dean says, pointing to the movie. Cas, comes as an afterthought, a voiceless projection of Dean’s subconscious to Castiel’s prayer line. Castiel reaches for him, touching his sleeve.
    “Are you aware that you’re doing that?” he murmurs. Dean shifts over minutely, promptly not paying attention to The Best Part. His eyelashes cast shadows on his cheekbones, and Castiel should be used to seeing him up close, but he never really gets used to it.
    “Doing what?”
    “Praying.”

    Summary

    Prayers were a run-of-the-mill affair for angels.
    Most angels, well, the ones who actually took the time to listen in, could even pick out out a few of their regular devotees.
    Castiel was one of the angels who actually enjoyed tuning in, especially when it came to the eldest Winchester's invocations. This time, however, Castiel was not prepared for the sight he was met with when he answered Dean's desperate prayer.

    Summary

    Three weeks ago, Dean woke up in a pine box. He thought dealing with the nightmares was going to be the most difficult part of his new life after Hell, but at least they were something he could understand. Something he could deal with. Something he deserved.

    Then he began having agonizing visions of crucifixion. Wounds appeared on his body out of nowhere. Wounds that refused to heal and coated his skin with the sickly sweet smell of roses.

    Stigmata are said to be the marks of saints, but Dean is not a saint and the wounds are only the beginning.

     

    Here are some companion character playlists:

    Sam

    Enjoy!

     

    Update 9/11/2024: Chapter 7 of the sequel is posted.

    Summary

    Cas is gone and he’s never coming back. The Empty said it would take him forever, and forever is endless, like the Cas-shaped hole in Dean’s life. There’s no getting him back. No way for him to hear those three words Dean never said. Dean knows this, the same way he knows that Cas’ death was his fault.
    And then suddenly, forever isn’t as endless as he thought it was. And maybe— just maybe— he can get Cas back.

    Summary

    Canon-divergent from 12.08

    After Sam and Dean are arrested, Castiel is left alone and scrambling to find them. He knows they’re locked away in a government facility, and he’s still able to hear their prayers, but no matter how he tries Castiel can’t seem to track them. He chases leads and even attempts to hunt on his own, but Mary is AWOL, Crowley refuses to help, and Castiel’s options are running out.

    Weeks pass, Castiel’s hope dwindles, and through it all Dean prays, keeping them connected. His voice is comforting, frustrating, and occasionally annoying, but in his solitude Castiel comes to cherish it. But then one day, without warning, Dean stops praying, and Castiel is forced to confront some uncomfortable truths about his feelings.
