Summary
After all the angels fell (Supernatural Season 8 finale) and an inconclusive NASA investigation into the global meteor shower, a secret US task force came to the conclusion that angels walk among us. The task force determined they are powerful and therefore dangerous, a threat to the United States. Thus was born the American Council on Angel Affairs. Kept secret for four years, unknown even to the president, the ACAA devoted all their resources to finding out precisely how to control angels. They succeed, though not without casualties.
In the aftermath of the 2017 U.S. Presidential inauguration, after running on an anti-immigrant, anti-angel platform and winning the presidency, the new president has now made it law that all angels in human vessels must display their wings at all times or risk public execution. The public is rewarded handsomely for turning in suspected angels, and they do so love a bloody execution.
Although he'd successfully hidden again for years, Gabriel is captured, imprisoned, and sentenced to death. His only hope is Castiel, who would need to risk his own capture, along with two hunters, one of whom would like nothing more than to see Gabriel dead.

Summary
With Mary dead and Jack missing, Castiel goes in search of God. But what Chuck claims will help instead tears Castiel apart, leaving him feeling more broken and useless than ever. As he tries to put the pieces of himself back together with help from Sam and Dean, he comes to realize that memory is a double-edged sword, and blessings can look and act a lot like curses. Reclaiming all of his lost pieces is going to take more than courage. It will force him to admit truths he’s avoided for far too long, and ask for the one thing he’s certain he can’t have.

Summary
When Jack opens a rift to leave the apocalypse world, he, Sam, Dean, Cas, and Gabriel think they’ve returned to their own universe to plan their fight against Michael.

Summary
When Dean takes the brunt of a spell intended to evict Castiel from his vessel, his mind fractures and it falls to Cas and Sam to put him back together—not knowing how many pieces of Dean there are, or which part will come out next. Will it be the innocent child who remembers that angels are watching over him? The Hell-tortured adult who believes he’s not worthy of rescue? The angry hunter who has been betrayed one too many times? Or the lover who no longer has a reason to hold back?

Summary
Dean swallowed drily again, feeling his tongue heavy and weird inside his mouth, but he still managed to say, “Seriously, Cas, I... I need this. I really do. And you’re the only one who can do it. You’re the only one I trust to do this.” The hunter’s voice sounded far too hoarse, still lacking the confidence he wished to convey, and he licked his lips, looking down, focusing his gaze on a particular spot on the sheets. He fiddled with a loose thread he found there, feeling that difficulty to sit still for too long making itself known once more. He cleared his throat, and tried again, “And this is the easiest way, too. It just solves everything. You can check the damage Michael did. You can try to dig up some memories, to see if I can remember how I got this scar. And you can make sure that... that he’s really gone.” His voice did fail this time, throat feeling dry and tight, and he swallowed again to try and fix that, but it did very little to help.
The slightest hint of a feeble, empty smile tugged the corner of Dean's mouth upward, words coming out far too low and weak when he added, “Three birds, one stone, right?”
As if this really were that simple.
Set during 14x03, "The Scar".

Summary
By the time he hits thirty-three, Dean's given up on the apple pie life, accepting that a serious relationship isn't in the cards for him. But when he meets Cas everything falls into place. Now he’s happily married, hopelessly in love, and they’re about to buy their first home together. It almost feels too good to be true.
It turns out it is. His world comes crashing down when he wakes to find that he’s been a subject in a virtual reality simulation gone wrong. All the years he thought he spent with Cas were actually experienced in less than a week. And when he gets out, Cas is nowhere to be found and nobody has heard of him. Ignoring the possibility that Cas may not be real, Dean sets out to find him and convince him that it’s worth giving Dean — and their relationship — a shot in the real world.

Summary
Freedom is just one adjustment after the next.
~~~
Cas hums again. "I think you already have. It's been months since everything settled. All that's left to do is...get used to it, and perhaps—" His voice stalls out, uncharacteristically, and his gaze roams Dean's face with intensity. When he speaks next, his tone is a little raw. "Perhaps what one does with peace is...whatever they want."
"What if I don't even know what that is?" Dean grumbles, arching an eyebrow in challenge. "'Cause I know damn well you don't just mean good food and a good bed and time in Baby, not simple wants like that. You mean—ya know, the big things, the wants we didn't get to have before."
"Yes," Cas agrees. "If you're not sure, figure it out."
"Easier said than done."

Summary
To tie up the loose ends of a hunt, Dean is forced to go undercover and visit Brock Pleasure Ranch, a horrifying establishment that markets its inhabitants to people with ‘monstrous’ tastes.
It should have been a simple thing, to persuade a mer to give him a few scales for a spell. All part of the usual Winchester byline: saving people, hunting things.
But Castiel is far less of a ‘thing’ than Dean expected. He might not be human, but he’s definitely a person.
And that means he needs saving, too.

Summary
To the average person, Dean Winchester's life looks perfect. He tells himself he's lucky, that he has everything he ever dreamed of, and that every relationship has its ups and downs.
Castiel Novak keeps to himself, career-driven, surrounding himself with his books and his work and actively refusing to become involved with anyone who might split his focus. He's lonely, but he can't have everything. Can he?
When a chance encounter brings the two men together, their lives begin to change in ways neither could anticipate as they embark on a friendship that could lead to so much more.
