🥰 A fic that gives you warm fuzzy feelings

fic recs ask game

[outpastthemoat]

tonight i’m thinking about september 13, 2005, about how it was my first year of college and my roommate and i couldn’t agree about anything but we both watched that first episode on her tv.  about how i would program the tv with a built-in vhs player to record episodes every week.  about how “scarecrow” was the first episode that made the hair on the back of my neck stand up.  about how i lost track of supernatural after the second season finale when i moved to an apartment without a tv but never forgot about those brothers and their ghosts.

about how in 2011 i bought a house and got a streaming netflix subscription, about how i watched twin peaks all the way through and then, remembering that show i used to love so long ago, started watching supernatural again from the beginning.  about how season three was the first season to really get a tight grip on my emotions, watching dean waiting to die, watching sam grieving for dean.  about how an angel walked into a barn and i gasped out loud as lights popped and flashed.  about how i gobbled up episodes like candy, one after another, it was all i wanted to do.  about how i hit season seven and saw dean’s depression and realized why it struck me so hard, about why i felt so connected to him.  getting to the end of season seven and logging onto tumblr for the first time.

thinking about that summer hiatus spent reading purgatory fic, so much of it that i still have a tag just for those, about watching supernatural live with the friends i’d made and liveblogging until my dash was nothing but episode codas and fix-it fics and episode screencaps.  thinking about caitlin odom’s supernatural-themed cd of songs, and how i listened to that until my cd wore out.  about the moment dean walked up and hugged cas in purgatory, and how tumblr was screaming it for days.  about 8x7 and 8x8, and all the way through that incredible season, those bless jeremy carver meme posts and everyone was actually starting to look at where dean and cas’s story was going, and starting to wonder, what if it really is going to happen......getting to “goodbye stranger” and SCREAMING AT THE TV because that was it, that was THE moment for me, the PEAK OF EVERYTHING, and then the season eight finale, watching angels falling out of the sky.  

about the summer hiatus, the incredible volume of amazing fic.  the summer of pie without plot, drowning in all the human-cas fic, and starting season nine and watching dean stare at cas through a window in the gas n sip.  i’m thinking about the fanzines and art books, the collaborative works, beta reading friends’ fics, screaming at each other here on tumblr about all the possibilities.  i’m thinking about deans1911′s “how the war was won,” and waiting frantically for more updates.  about all the hours i spent writing meta.  about learning more and more about myself with each episode analysis, about writing, about stories. 

tonight i’m thinking about how castiel’s story is a pygmalion story, and how i have always loved that kind of story best; stories about how people teach each other, and how they fall in love with their own creation but must eventually see all of who that person is in order to truly love them.  i’m thinking about “all things shining” and how the magic of that story took my breath away.  about all the dcbb fics i read, and how happy i was to finally participate.  about how much i wanted castiel’s name carved next to sam and dean’s, and how it finally was.  

i wouldn’t be myself without the friends i made through supernatural, or without the lessons i learned from it, and i will always treasure the years it has been a part of my life.  love you, spn.

hi! firstly just wanted to say two of your “fic rec tags” in your google doc syllabus don’t work for me for some reason? “fic rec tag” and “rec list tag”... weirdly the masterposts do.

This is a compilation of my absolute favorite DeanCas fics of all time, they are fics I have and will read over, and over, and over again. They are the crème de la crème, the cream of the crop, the golden ticket of DeanCas fanfiction, my friends. 

Please enjoy.

-organized from lowest word count - highest 

♦ put your hands on my waist by: casfallsinlove (2,182 ♦ M)

Summary: Dean is sitting at the window seat in their dark bedroom, the one that opens onto the fire escape. He must be cold. He's wearing nothing but boxers, miles and miles of lovely bare skin exposed to the cool breeze drifting in. If he is, he doesn't seem to care. 

♦ okay_cupid by: orange_crushed (4,591 ♦ T)

Summary: "The dating thing?" Dean frowns. "Online dating is for weirdos. Robots. Dudes hanging out in their basements."

"You hang out in your basement."

"I have an air hockey table down there,” Dean says, icily.

♦ Love Lab by: youaresunlight (5,385 ♦ M)

Summary: When Dean sees the flyer for a research study offering $75 to participants, he doesn’t think twice before signing him and Cas up. The problem, of course, is that it’s a romantic couples study and while Cas is his roommate and best friend, they are very much not in a relationship.

♦ No Strings by: lastknownwriter  (6,201 ♦ T) 

Summary: Casual sex, no strings attached; it seemed like the perfect offer…

♦ Going Postal by: captainbarnes (6,771 ♦ NR)

♦ the earth around me by: casfallsinlove (7,419 ♦ M)

Summary: “I’m running away,” Dean blurts and fuck, it feels good to say that out loud.Cas blinks at him over a box of cod liver oil. He plants it unceremoniously on the floor and pulls off his creased Walgreens apron.“I’m coming with you.”Okay then.

(In which Dean and Cas run away together and learn how to be free.)

♦ Something Unexpected by:cloudyjenn (7,671 ♦ NC-17)

Summary: Mr. Novak is Dean’s principal. Dean would like him to be more.

Summary: Dr. Winchester hears an off hand comment from one of his students and find himself browsing a website dedicated to rating university professors. He’s not surprised by his rating — but is a little miffed to see the department chair has an even better one. Clearly, something needs to be done about this.

♦ Today, your barista ‘verse by: orange_crushed (13,601 ♦ T)

Summary: "Is that-"

"My number," says Dean, because he's a fucking champion, he's cool, he's collected, he's Captain Smooth of the USS Smoothtania, that's right. He is definitely not leaning against the counter for moral support. Cas doesn' looked seduced or impressed, though. He does not look like a dude who just met Captain Smooth and wants to ride the loveboat. He looks puzzled.

♦ It's Always the End of the World Somewhere by: scaramouche (21,126 ♦ E)

Summary: The status quo is this: Dean is the popular captain of the football team, and Castiel is the off-kilter nobody who doesn’t so much as breathe the same air as Dean. Then senior year happens and the status quo is shot to smithereens.

♦ Shortskirts 'verse by: twentysomething (22,377 ♦ E)

His surprise husband, Castiel, is a little weird but likable despite that, and Dean figures they’ll go back to Boston, get a quiet annulment, and go their separate ways.

Six weeks later, he’s still married to one of the strangest, most genuine and definitely most dangerously lov-- likable guys he's ever known. Dean doesn't know why or really even how it’s happening, but it’s getting harder and harder to remember that he has divorce papers to file.

Wherein Dean makes a hefty living as a tattoo artist who owns the space next to Gabriel's cafe. Sam attends the local university. When Gabe's cousin comes to live with him while starting grad school at Sam's university, Dean thinks for sure that all his negative karma's coming to bite him in the ass because Cas clearly has a thing for Sam. No one would ever choose him over Sam. That's just logic.

Summary: Dean runs a laundromat. The punk kids come to him for all their clothing repair needs.

That includes their bad boy ringleader, Castiel.

A collection of ficlets.

♦ Your Heart Makes by: schmerzerling (51,884 ♦ M) 

Summary: Castiel is directionless, depressed, and working in one of the worst possible places to be so—Disneyland Park. Seeing hundreds of excited people every day, trying to smile for the customers, and dealing with the fact that his infuriating brother Gabriel is so readily capable of every park job he throws himself into makes Castiel feel like he could barely manage to keep his head above the foot of water in the “It’s a Small World” canal that he oversees. 

All of that changes when the universe sees fit to put him in a Disneyesque love story opposite the handsome animator in the window on Main Street who doesn’t care about Castiel’s lethargic lack of idealism—so long as he can make caustic Cas come to appreciate every attraction in the park. But life isn’t a Disney fairy tale, and even though an easy out and a happy ending are what Castiel seeks, he’ll begin to wonder if the happiest ending isn’t really an ending at all. 

♦ Thunder & Angels by: pm_lo (54,263 ♦ E)

Summary: Castiel’s family owns the shoddily-regulated coal mine where John Winchester works, so Dean storms Cas’s mansion, demanding answers from the drugged-out trust-fund kid. In exchange for his help repairing the mine, Cas demands Dean live with him for three months and give Cas a shot at seducing him by allowing him one kiss a day.

♦ Grotesque by: lastknownwriter (58,314 ♦ E)

Summary: Deep in the heart of the bayou, a winged creature has paid a long and lonely penance for a tragedy history has forgotten. A fateful storm and a soldier pure of heart are about to change his world. A Dean/Castiel Beauty and the Beast AU.

*fic removed by author. please contact author for PDF.  

♦ Highwaymen. by: orange_crushed (66,389 ♦ M)

Summary: Dean closes his eyes. He is under a blanket in his memories, fabric pulled up under his chin and his face pressed near to hers on the pillow. His father is asleep, snoring slightly, hands loose and expression happy, curled around her on the other side. She's speaking in whispers. He knows that she was already pregnant then, that Sam was on his way into their lives, even though he'd had no idea what exactly that meant at the time. He can almost see her face still, warm and orange in the light of her lumoscircling their heads like a firefly, but every now and then she blurs in his vision, like a lost thread of consciousness, something half-remembered. Bit by bit, he's losing her.

♦ Past, Present by: lastknownwriter (83,867 ♦ E)

Summary: When bar owner Dean Winchester meets Castiel Novak, he is only trying to be friendly to the lonely professor; he never expects to fall in love. When a tragic accident inadvertently erases the life they’ve built together, will they be able to find each other again? Or will Dean be left with the memory of a love he couldn’t save and a heart hardened by a simple twist of fate? 

*fic removed by author. please contact author for PDF. 

♦ Freefall by: lastknownwriter (128,542 ♦ E)

Summary: The most exciting kindergarten teacher Dean Winchester’s life ever gets is when he plays mechanic in his uncle Bobby’s shop on the weekends.That is until a birthday party goes tequila-nova and he trips into a one-night stand with an incredibly hot firefighter named Castiel. Dean’s life gets a lot more exciting after that.

*fic removed by author. please contact author for PDF.

♦ For All You Young Hockey Players Out There, Pay Attention  by: thursdaysfallenangel (143,594 ♦ E) 

Summary: Dean Winchester knows two things about hockey, two things his dad made sure he knew. One, hockey is a guy’s sport, and two, hockey is family. Hockey meant Sam and Bobby and Benny and Victor and Gabriel and hell, his entire team. So when Victor gets traded, Russian-star-turned-new teammate Castiel Krushnic becomes a threat. As much as Dean hates him for that, the longer he sticks around, the more he begins to threaten that first rule too. Dean’s been taught his whole life that those who play hockey should not be captivated by deep accented voices and the way a guy handles his stick, so how the hell is he supposed to justify what he’s starting to think about Cas? All Dean wanted at the beginning of the season was to win, and now all he wants to do is figure out how he feels about Cas and how to deal with it without ruining his career and tearing his family apart.

Supernatural recs [Dean/Casiel]

Supernatural recs - Part 1 Dean & Casiel

The Girlfriend Experience by rageprufrock, NC-17, 15393 words While it's not like Dean hasn't had a couple of truly regrettable hit-and-runs in his sexual history, this is probably the saddest fucking thing that has ever happened to him. Clearly everyone must have read this already because it's so amazing it literally calls to you. But if somehow you have not then please for the love of god go read it now because it's great. Dean and Cas were amazing, in-character but also changed enough to adapt to the situation. Sam was written excellently as well, he was just fun really but a fun voice of reason which is normally needed when it comes to Cas and Dean getting together. This fic was just hot and steamy and beautiful. Two idiots coming together and Sam the cheering squad, just wanting his big brother to man up and get with Cas. "Burgers also cost money," Castiel says in between bites, mopping ketchup off his face. "Which I don't have and do not know how to obtain." Dean snorts. "Great, we're your sugar daddies — that is shit sad, Cas." "Oh, Jesus," Sam mutters, like he just cannot believe his brother is talking about this in front of his prom date. "What's a sugar daddy?" Cas asks, and looking hopeful, he opens his mouth again. Dean cuts in, saying: "No more burgers for you. And you don't need to know about sugar daddies."

Easy Now, With My Heart by mcpadalackles, NC-17, 49663 recs Dean Winchester is a kindergarten teacher. Castiel Milton is a writer slash works-in-a-coffee-shop. He also happens to be the extremely hot one-night stand that Dean never intended to see again other than in his own fantasies (he’s classy like that). But suddenly Cas is everywhere and Dean is convinced that Fate is out to get him. And maybe they do this thing backwards, but that doesn’t have to mean they can’t make it in the end, right? This is amazing, and awesome and I just could not stop reading. Hell, Dean and Castiel in this was both kind of insane and really co-dependent - but to be fair that is realatively in character - and half the time they were looking it felt like waiting for two trains to crash but it was still so good. They're not making life easy for each other but you could feel the want and the need and the love and it was as engaging as hell. Turns out though, he was totally right. Castiel does love the place, or at least he pretends to for Dean's sake. They start off with more beer, but that quickly escalates to shots (and the dude's fucking lethal at shots—it takes at least half a dozen before he declares that he's 'starting to feel something') and then they end up nursing two of Ellen's finest whiskeys and laughing hysterically about… well, he forgets but it sure was funny at the time. Castiel's shirt is open at the neck now, his blue tie a lost cause, and Dean's pretty sure he doesn't look much better himself. And then, suddenly, and he's really not sure how it happened or who initiated it, but suddenly they're pressed together in their corner booth and they're kissing. Like full on desperate tongue and teeth action, and it tastes like booze and bar nuts but is so fucking good, and if Dean had any doubts before he certainly doesn't now. Castiel presses into him hard, forcing him to lean backwards in his seat and he has to grab the table to stop himself from toppling over.

F**k You! by deans1911, R, 24459 words Castiel Novak, the general manager of a failing restaurant, and Dean Winchester, his stubborn head chef, hate each other’s guts. It’s up to celebrity Chef Balthazar Roche to keep them from running Garrison 16 into the ground and killing one another in the process. So, okay, this is probably one of my favourite AU's I've read. It's a really nice fleshed out universe, the characters are great and it's real. In the sense that it got it sad moments, and its bad, but it also has it happy and silly and hot. And it all evens out really well. You do sort of want to bang Cas and Dean's heads together half the time but honestly that was probably part of the fun. Dean is grinning like an idiot, if for no other reason than the stunningly ridiculous visual he now has of Cas shaking his ass for money. He lets Cas turn his hand over and run his thumb over the stitches through the plastic bag. There’s that crease between Cas’s eyebrows that means he’s about to say something that’s going to make them both uncomfortable. “For what it’s worth, I actually do think of you as my boyfriend,” he mutters, voice gone rough and soft in a way that instantly has Dean’s stomach flip-flopping. When he peeks up at Dean from under the messy fringe of his bangs, flattened to his forehead from sea water, Dean wants to kiss him senseless or run screaming--he isn’t sure which is the better option.

The First Year by cloudyjenn, PG-13, 7730 words When Castiel leaves after Lucifer's defeat, all he asks is that Dean wait for him. So that's exactly what Dean does. Ohh this fic, it breaks my heart and then after that comes back round to jump on it. Which is weird because it is not exactly that angsty or even that depressing, I think it's more the idea of the fic and the message behind it. And what it said about Dean and his life and how damn hard he loves. It's gorgeous and everything is worth it in the end. "Do you want to get out of here?" Amber asked a moment later. "I can't," Dean said without thought. "I'm waiting."

The (Mostly Accidental) Courtship of Dean Winchester by tuesday, PG-13, 11171 words Angelic marriage rites were never intended to go quite like this. When are wedding/bonding fics not fun? The answer is they're always fun. I really enjoyed Dean's voice in this, I mean it is essentially a Dean that is happy which is not exactly in-character but his character in this fic was still great and engaging. Cas was great too but clearly I was pretty drawn to Dean in this. I'm more of a fun and engaging then angstful and depressing kind of fic gal. And this fitted the brief pretty well. "What the hell?" Dean had said, and, "Where have you been?" and, like Cas was the boy blocking his calls and Dean was three steps away from turning stalker, God help him, "Why didn't you answer me the first three times?" "I was busy," Castiel said. And really, Dean should have asked this first, but, "Why are you naked?"

*The Way the War was Won by deans1911, R, 37258 words Dean and Cas are buddy cops faking a marriage for the benefits and tax breaks. Except for the part where Dean’s sort of actually in love with his partner and doesn’t realize it yet. Aww cute and sweet and long. I like that we sort of skip the angsty section of their relationship and skip straight to the finally getting their shit together part. Like there's still some angst, but not enough to hurt and it is such a well written story just even though we're just hearing about their history you still feel like you know their whole story. Fun and amazing read, I loved it. “Are you actually gay or just Cas-sexual?” she quips, grinning. Dean wants to shoot her, but he doubts that Cas would approve of brain matter on their new carpet. Sam needs to upgrade. Ruby is officially a demon. “Not really any of your business,” he mutters. Ruby purrs beside him and wraps her arms around her knees. ”Oh, I don’t know, Dean. I just think it’s really fucked up of you to try to keep him from seeing people if you’re never actually going to seal the deal.” Low blow. This bitch is way too observant for her own good. Probably why she’s CIA. ”Whatever,” he snarls, but she struck a chord and he knows it.

So Glad We Made It by Annie D (scaramouche), PG-13, 16421 words At twelve years old, Dean makes a friend, who becomes his best friend, who will eventually become the love of his life. Really sweet and engaging fic, and it pretty perfectly catches that feeling of being scared of taking that step because who knows what happens when you do? When Dean does take that step it works out pretty awesome, with the right amount of angst and confusion along the way. Really good take on Dean, and while Castiel didn't always act or do what I expected that is probably more in character than him suddenly swooning and falling all over Dean. But all in all they were both great and fun and the fic was just a really good read. Later, without fail, Cas plucks Dean out from the mess and drags him to the Impala outside. (On loan from Dad, because Cas’ solemn oath to behave actually means something in their house.) Dean only stirs awake when he finds himself being tucked into bed, Cas a dark shadow hovering over him. Dean catches Cas’ arms, holds him there. He squints up at Cas, who is watching him, patient as a statue. “Always you,” Dean says stupidly. “Of course, Dean,” Cas replies, though he can’t have any idea what Dean’s talking about.

I noticed your link for "Don't Panic" isn't working. I was so sad when deans1911 deleted their fics. But I do have a copy of "Don't Panic" and "The Way the War Was Won" if you're interested.

Yeah, they were such a great author :tesslucetram just mentioned, you now know who to contact for copies!)

[my fic rec]

[ofherlionheart]

s, n, p?

i love that u asked this in not alphabetical order lol 💛

S. link your favorite author

adlkjlkdfjldkf impossible Q. i’m lame and only very recently was enlightened to the practice of checking out an author’s other works if you liked one thing they wrote? and i still havent done that often. so imma avoid this question by shouting out some of my fave fics. like, i reread them all the time. in no particular order:

the bad boy boogie series by lanyon

of the nature of the wound by decinq (@spockothy)

asunder by rageprufrock

a beginner’s guide to communing with the dead by suspiciousflashlight (@huntingthehaggis)

dreameater by glassedplanets

also the way the war was won by deans1911 but that was removed from ao3 ages ago

stilinski & associates series by ebjameston

hope is the thing with feathers by ShanaStoryteller (@shanastoryteller)

play it again by metisket (@metisket)

N. do you write smut?

no, not rly? i also usually scroll past those scenes when reading fic too, lol. not b/c i’m against it to any degree, it just rarely does anything for me. that said i recently wrote a sex scene for the sun inside companion that might never see the light of day but it wasn’t like. a ~sexy~ boink u know? it was a self-discovery/discovery of body boink.

P. do you write exclusively fanfic?

nope! also write original stuff and screenplays. last fews years tho, i’ve been most consistent abt fic, b/c again, was working out of a space where i was feeling v down abt my ability to be creative in a way that other people could resonate with/relate to/understand. getting positive responses to my fic has done wonders for my confidence/recovering to a degree that idk if i could ever properly express

send me a letter to ask me a Q abt fics :)

Hello there, sorry for bothering you, I'm in a quest for deancas fanfiction at the moment, I wanted to re-read some of deans1911 stories and I found out he had taken them down, which makes me really sad because he was such a talented writer ffff Saw another ask you answered and you said you had his stories saved, do you by any chance have Where My Demons Hide or At the Bottom? Thank you!

I agree with the fact that he is an awesome writer, but sadly I don’t have those fics you’re looking for. BUT, here I have a bunch of great people who can help you!

Let’s try. Do some of you have these fics??

Where my Demons Hide

At the Bottom

one-red-box replied to your post “For your anon - there was chris's one college au, occam's razor, with bobby raising all three boys. Taken down obv, but didn't you save most of his?”

If you search for deans1911 on spn story finder, there is a download link for four of his stories, and I think one of them is Occam's Razor.

OMG I FOUND IT!!!

Four of deans1911's fics that are now deleted from ao3. I haven't read Law of Occam's Razor or Fuck You, but Don't Panic and The Way the War Was Won are fantastic.
