And flee, he did. The ship was called Impala, its purpose mysterious enough for its mechanic-cum-captain to take one look at the offered credits and nod.

 Or,

On their eighteenth anniversary, Dean and Castiel retrace their steps.

Summary: 

“Come here,” Dean said, before he could talk himself out of it. Before he could convince himself Cas wouldn’t want to. “Quarantine with me.” Cas’s breath hitched. “What?”

Or after only a couple dates, Dean and Cas decide to quarantine together. Because gays be like

Author Notes: I wrote this fic in April, thinking by the time it posted quarantine would be a funny anecdote. WELL LOOK AT US NOW.

It’s that time of year again! See below the cut for our list of authors and artists and what day they’re posting! Posting begins October 1 and ends October 10. Thanks for a great writing year in the middle of such a weird actual year.

Between blaming himself for being broken and shielding possible partners from inevitable disappointment, he hasn’t had time to be intimate with anyone in a long time.

It turns out hooking up isn’t a thing he’s good at, either. Instead, an angel takes him out for burgers.

Summary: Cas isn’t terribly invested in dating, but when Dean Winchester shows interest, Cas has difficulty turning him down. In the end, Cas agrees to a date only because he knows there won’t be a second one - after all, since when has anyone wanted to date someone who wasn’t interested in sex? (A tale about navigating this world as an asexual individual.)

Author Notes: I wrote this envisioning Cas as demi like me, though he hasn’t yet come to understand his asexuality as being of the demi variety just yet. That being said, it can be read in any number of ways - though there is definitely no sexual content. I hope you all enjoy it!
