Title: Under The Midnight Sun

Author: Northern Sparrow

Length: 224,527 words

Pairings: Dean/Castiel (minor Sam/Ruby)

Warnings: Canon-Typical Violence, Hypothermia

Summary: Dean Winchester’s been camp manager of a science research station on the Alaskan tundra for thirteen years. Dean likes his job; fixing the camp trucks, troubleshooting the snow machines, keeping clueless undergrads and NSF bigwigs from walking into grizzly bears or getting lost in snowstorms — it’s all in a day’s work. So it’s really not any of Dean’s business when some weirdo antisocial ornithologist sets up a tent a few miles away, a dark-haired blue-eyed guy who’s doing a “very long-term” study on birds or wings or something, and who never, ever takes off his big lumpy backpack. But then the new guy starts dropping by camp for coffee and… well, he’s not officially part of camp; he’s not Dean’s responsibility; he’s really not Dean’s problem at all, but when a blizzard comes rolling in, Dean gets worried and goes to check. Thing is, Dean’s spent years in the sweeping vistas of the Arctic. He knows all about the midnight sun and the northern lights, the ice caves and avalanches, the rough-and-ready Haul Road truckers and the even rougher-and-readier wild animals. But even so, what he finds is much more than he bargained for.

Title: About Five Times The Distance

Author: cuddlemonsterdean

Artist: carolinasacco

Rating: Explicit

Length: 46k

Pairings: Dean/Castiel (Sam/Eileen, Mary/AU!Bobby (mentioned))

Warnings: Canon-level violence, PTSD, Anxiety, Flashbacks and Nightmares

It’s been months since Michael unexpectedly let Dean go, but he’s still dealing with the mental and physical repercussions, some of which have turned out to be permanent. He’s had to adjust how to deal with hunts and that he likely won’t ever be at a 100% again. On the upside, he and Cas are close now in a way that he’d never dared hope for, have made it clear how they feel for each other. Dean’s greedy for every bit of affection they share, helplessly wanting more but unsure if Cas wants the same. Dean’s family got him back and he’s got them, but they’re all dealing with their own respective issues and hang-ups, and when they – Cas, Dean, Sam, Eileen, and Jack – embark on a case of missing homeless people in San Diego, it all comes bubbling to the surface.

This case fic follows Dean and Cas as they develop their relationship and establish intimacy, and while there’s angst, the story is focused on healing and closeness, and there’s a happy ending.

Thankful — a Kinda Like Family, Kinda Like Love timestamp

For those of you who follow my Destiel fic Kinda Like Family, Kinda Like Love, here is a preview of the first timestamp. 😊 Posting soon on AO3!

Dean Milton is a thankful man. He’s thankful for his beautiful twin boys, Jamie and Robbie. He’s thankful for his awesome job as a Kindergarten teacher and his even more awesome coworkers, many of whom he counts as friends. He’s thankful for his huge, incredibly supportive and tight-knit family. And of course, he’s thankful for his husband Cas, the love of his life, who stuck by him while he figured out his sexuality and his Daddy issues.

What he’s not thankful for is that his beloved husband has discovered cooking magazines. And television shows. And websites. Because now his husband is fretting over having the “perfect” Thanksgiving, which they’re hosting for the first time.

Summary:

In the years following his mother’s death in a house fire, Dean Winchester begins to develop OCD as a way to cope with the loss. After more than a decade without a diagnosis, his symptoms grow more severe. And after the sudden death of John Winchester, Dean is left to cope by himself and Sam is forced to quit his undergrad in order to care for him. Ashamed of his shut-in life, and guilty that his little brother has become his caretaker at the expense of everything else, Dean seeks out therapy, and five years later, is holding down a full time job, can freely visit his favorite coffee shop to get a daily dose of Castiel, the (hot) hippie owner, and Sam is now free to return to school.

Sam Winchester would do anything for his brother, but he is more than thrilled to finally be returning to school, even if he is a 23 year-old sophomore. It also helps that a certain smart mouthed TA is helping him get back into the groove. Of course, getting a good read on Gabriel is just about as easy as advanced Chemistry, and he’s not so great at that, either. As the semester goes on, he gets the distinct impression that his orderly life is about to get messy.

Ch. 01 :  Sam and Dean begin their new routine. It’s a bumpy road.   

Ch. 02 :  Sam attends his first classes and makes some unexpected friends.

Ch. 03 :  Dean and Castiel accidentally surprise each other.   

Ch. 04 : Sam has his first night out at a neon party and has an unexpectedly exciting encounter.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! HAVE A NEW CHAPTER OF TRICKS FOR YOUR TREAT!

Ch. 05

Dean calls a joint meeting with Jody and Donna. Then he calls Castiel.

Together, they embark on a sea voyage around the Greek islands. There’s surprises on the horizon, though…
