#asexual!cas

Dean finds out his crush is asexual, one fine Monday in a group chat — when everyone's wishing Castiel a >>> happy ace week. And it's not the most ideal setting, but at least now he has a timeframe to figure out his next move within.

(Figure out how to ask the most beautiful, awesomest dork on campus out. During Ace Week — because it's memorable that way, that's why. Basically, look into those unbelievably blue eyes, and somehow manage the words, "Please go out with me, Cas. Please." (but less lame, hopefully) without spontaneously combusting.

Easy.

Sure, he wants to flee already, but easy. Stupid, glorious eyes, laugh, voice — nope. No drifting away, Winchester. Easy.

He's got this.)

The shitshow that was the ‘Den of Iniquity’

Day four of the December Destiel prompts by @jellydeans and @galaxycastiel

Day four promt: sledding

post-cannon story

Dean grins as Cas, sighing, rests his head on Dean's shoulder. Dean couldn't believe it when Cas told him he had never been sledding before. Dean couldn't unerstand such a thing. Even he, who grew up constantly traveling and cutting off vamp heads, had gone sledding every winter he could. So he had arranged to take Cas sledding at the hill down the street from the bunker. He had even bought a new bright yellow and white sled that had a few little scattered bunches of bees on it. The sled was in the back of the impala now.

"You ready Cas?" Dean remarks as he notices Cas looking down the steep hill cautiously. "Uh well Dean its so steep... What if I can't stop at the bottom?" Dean smiles. "Then you jump clear of the sled while shouting 'Zoinks!' and then we'll laugh about it while watching the video later." Deans laughs to himself but stops as he sees Cas's face. He's... Scared? Dean walks over to him, leaving the sled next to Baby. "Cas? Hey its ok..." He holds Cas in a hug. A thought strikes him as Cas holds onto him tight;y."Hey Cas you know what I'm going to do?" Cas looks up at him, his face still scared. "I'm gonna ride with you and we'll go down together the first time." Cas's mouth twitches into a smile. "That sounds fun Dean but its still scary..." Dean kisses Cas lightly and smiles into Cas's face, pressing their foreheads together. "Hey... Do you you trust me?" Cas takes a deep breath and smiles. "Of course I do, Dean. After all," Cas can't hold in a laugh. "We DO have a more profound bond." Dean picks Cas up and spins around quickly, falling in the snow still holding him. Both laugh as a snowball fight quickly insues.

After a few minutes Dean offers his hand out to help Cas up. The two walk over to the sled and Dean picks it up, brushing the snow off of the top. "You ready Cas?" Cas nods solemly and Dean sits down on the sled, motioning for Cas to sit in front of him. Cas sits down, snuggleing back in to Dean. Dean shoves his foot out, sending them quickly down the hill swiftly, snow flying out from the sides of them. Cas yells and Dean starts to laugh uncontrolably. At the bottom of the hill Dean stops the sled with his gloved hand and looks down at Cas. His nuckles are white from griping the sides of the sled but he's laughing happily. Dean shoves some snow down Cas's coat colar and sprints up the hill, sled in hand. They went down a dozen or more times, Cas slowly becoming more used to it and Dean doing crazy poses while going down.

Dean Winchester is one of the finest circuit riders of his generation, right after his legendary father. He's got the life he loves, with the exception of one thing - one person: his biggest sponsor, Castiel Milton. Despite being a ranch owner, Milton is only interested in one thing, and that's making money, even at the expense of animals past their prime. At least, that's what Dean's animosity has been lead to believe. However, coming face to face with his misunderstanding makes him reevaluate a lot of things, including his feelings for Castiel.

Castiel is a grim reaper – and a very experienced one at that. He has negotiated thousands of deals to keep the balance of souls, acquiring years of life energy from mortals who have too many years in their life span, and has passed it onto those who have less. But even Castiel isn’t prepared when he accidentally convinces a mortal called Dean Winchester to give him his soul, and with it, a complete control of his life.

Dean Winchester has everything. He’s got a great house, a steady job, a beautiful car, a loyal best friend, and (most importantly) an abundance of great advice. He wants nothing more than for everybody else in his life to know what it feels like to be as happy as he is. After successfully seeing his brother Sam married off to Eileen Leahy, Dean turns his attention to his newest friend: Charlie Bradbury. Despite his best friend Cas’s apprehensions, Dean does his best to improve her life. Thing is, none of his attempts at matchmaking seem to work. In fact, Dean’s carefully laid plans for Charlie (and for himself) quickly start to fall apart. Why is Charlie so oblivious? And why is Dean so upset when Cas’s ex returns to town? Dean’s got a lot to learn about his family and friends, but mostly, he’s got a lot to learn about himself. (A modern-day Emma AU.)

Dean didn't think that his life as a detective could get much worse after Castiel was promoted to lieutenant. Castiel was a stickler for the rules, had no sense of humour, and never seemed to give Dean a break, even though they used to be partners. But then, despite all of their questionable history, the two are asked to go undercover on a case in the wealthy suburbs of California. . . as a married couple.

Dean Winchester met Castiel Novak on an unseasonably hot Portland Tuesday afternoon, as they both stood in line for soup dumplings at 10th and Alder. Dean had been staring at his phone, reading over his lesson plan for the afternoon, when something solid bumped into him.

“I’m so sorry,” a voice like gravel under his tires said, and Dean turned to find a gorgeous set of blue eyes staring at him. He did not miss the solid once-over blue eyes gave him, and smiled invitingly in return.

“Guess you’ll have to make it up to me,” he grinned, hoping this guy batted for the same team he did, “and give me your phone number.”

Blue eyes’ entire posture changed. He visibly relaxed, cocking one hip as his crossed his arms and raised an eyebrow. “And if I say no?” he asked teasingly.

“Then I’ll spend the rest of my life mourning ‘the one who got away’,” Dean informed him. “It’ll be sad and everyone will feel bad for me. I’ll spend the rest of my life thinking, what if? What if I had gotten that beautiful man’s phone number? I guess I’ll never know.” Dean pulled a pathetic hang dog expression.

“I didn’t say I wouldn’t give it to you,” Blue Eyes said, mirth obvious in his voice. He held out his hand. “Cas Novak.”

“Dean Winchester,” Dean said, happily taking Cas’s hand. “Now, how about those digits?”
