    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

    “It’ll go fine.” Howie advised. “I don’t like the idea of you being there alone,” he joked with a small little smile. “But it’ll be okay.”

    “I’m not alone.” Maddie teased with a matching smile of her own.

    “You’re right.” Howie conceded. “You have our scary baby girl to hold everyone off.”

    Maddie snorted. “I meant -.”

    “I know what you meant.” Howie sobered. “I like the idea of him being there even less.”

    Maddie’s stomach jolted. “Do you think I made a mistake?” She asked cautiously. “Should I have told him not to come?”

    Howie waved a hand to the side. “Nah,” he shrugged. “We both know Buck’s going to Buck.”

    --

    Or, realizing that the family that you need has been beside you all along.

    Summary

    When Eddie was seven years old his mother had taught him about God.

    "He loves us, Edmundo. He loves all," she tells him, tucking his blanket to his chin, "Everything you see around you is His love."

    Now, Buck grins at him from across the table and Eddie thinks this is the closest he's ever been to understanding how his mother viewed the world. As a manifestation of love. A higher power.

    Summary

    Eddie can’t move. Like this, Buck is illuminated by the sunlight streaming through the window; dust motes shimmering around his head, his hair haloed in gold. Beautiful, Eddie thinks. And to his surprise, he doesn’t feel any sort of guilt about doing so.

    Except — he should. Because Buck is dating Tommy, and he’s happy, and Eddie would rather go to his grave repressed and miserable than ever take away from Buck’s happiness.

    Or: Eddie starts to untangle his complicated feelings about himself, and Buck. Mainly Buck.
