Summary
Dean lives in a house with a white picket fence and has a day job as a mechanic. He’s out of hunting and, he finally gets to settle down with Cas.
Suddenly, he comes to the violent realization that none of this is real— it’s all a dream, manufactured by a djinn. He gets out and reality comes crashing down on him— he’s still in the life, he’s not in a relationship with Cas. And there’s his problem: how does he lose something he never had?
Now, he’s trying to navigate his non-romantic relationship with Cas, which is more strained than it’s been in a long time. It’s hard enough on its own, even without Sam and Jack insisting that Cas is in love with him too, and that they could have been in the same djinn dream.
Dean does what Winchesters do best: throwing himself into the job and not talking. But that doesn’t keep the lines between him and Cas from blurring. They blur and they blur and they blur and they blur, and who’s to say what’s really real?

Summary
Playing in Nashville is always an experience. Playing in Nashville during playoffs is even worse. Playing in Nashville during the Western Conference Championship so they can get to the Stanley Cup Finals is Hell.
Dean, Castiel, and the rest of the Cavs hockey team take on the Warblers and deal with the deafening taunts that Nashville hockey specializes in.
A special timestamp gift for ThursdaysFallenAngel... and because I really wanted to piss Dean off with the amazing chants that Nashville hockey fans love to yell.

Summary
In one universe, Dean Winchester is pushing thirty. He’s just danced at his little brother’s wedding, he likes his job at the garage, and he goes on the occasional hunt with friends and family. He’s also desperately lonely for someone to share his life with. One day, he finds a mysterious package outside his door. It contains a news clipping about an urban legend that just might be real, and a book by Professor Castiel Novak, who happens to specialize in that same urban legend.
In another universe, Castiel Novak’s roadside motel is slowly dying, its business hollowed out by the interstate system. Dean Winchester, the man who asked him to run away together years ago, is only a painful regret these days. Until the day a mysterious letter Castiel doesn’t remember writing brings Dean back to his doorstep.
Out there in the multiverse, a man and an angel look for each other in all the wrong places. In the meantime, they might as well help a few other versions of themselves figure things out.

Summary
On his first day of college, Dean feels like a fish out of water. After years of working his ass off with several jobs at once to fund his brother’s studies, his family and friends have decided to pay him back.
That’s how he finds himself panicking in the lecture hall. Thankfully, a fellow student distracts him. She promptly becomes a good friend, and Dean has no idea how badly he will need her.
The moment he lays eyes on his physics professor, Dean is lost. Castiel Novak seems like the man of his dreams. And when the professor’s son appears from under the podium, several lives take an unsuspected turn.

Summary
Thanks to a twist of fate (or cosmic joke?), Dean Wincester is now co-owner of Motel California, a barely-hanging-on spot in the middle of nowhere. It all started when Chuck thrust the papers at him, yelling, “It’s yours!” Sure, the place was a dump and his confidence was shot after 15 years behind bar, but maybe, just maybe, he could turn the motel into, well, something?
Turns out redemption runs right through the local oddballs in the neighborhood. There’s Charlie, the relentless firecracker—ready to brighten his mood no matter how grumpy he gets; Kelly, the cleaner with her pint-sized philosopher of a kid; Billie and Mort who run the diner down the road, where the food’s greasy enough to give you a heart attack; Bobby and Rufus, the record store sages who preach classic rock like it’s gospel; and Claire, the perpetually grumpy shopworker who terrifies Dean more than prison ever did. Then there’s the enigmatic Castiel—piercing blue eyes, arriving every month like clockwork, alone yet never lonely.
Dean’s finding that maybe there’s a place for him in this world after all. And Castiel? Well, he might be Dean’s shot at something real—if Dean can finally figure out who he was and who he might still become.
