FIC PROMO: Blessed Be The Norm
Ships: Dean/Cas, Sam/Eileen
After The Tribulation, those that remain are desperate to keep their homes free from the mere mention of monsters, mutants or deviants. As a city guard, Dean Winchester is one of the first lines of defence protecting the populace from the unnatural. But Dean’s life is one of secrets, from the demon-killing knife in his pocket to the fact that his own brother is psychic, a lesser-known kind of deviants. Then there's his brother’s psychic friend, Meg, the illegal stash of coffee he’s hoarded and his suspiciously detailed knowledge of what goes bump in the night. His crush on his superior, Cas, isn’t ideal but compared to everything else is the least of his worries.
In Cas, at least, he finds an unlikely ally and an even more unexpected one when Sam and Meg are exposed. The four of them must contend with demons, monsters and each other as they face life on the Fringes, struggling to make it from one day to the next, searching desperately for somewhere to make a home. But Cas has secrets of his own that could blow apart the fragile bonds that hold them all, to say nothing of the growing feelings between him and Dean.
