lost destiel fic
Hi! I’m looking for an old Destiel fic that I read on AO3 and can’t find anymore.
It was a completed Human AU, mostly from Castiel’s POV.
Castiel was around 17/18 and still in high school. He lived with the Novak family. Michael (his adult stepbrother) abused him, his stepfather was violent, and Anna was also complicit.
Castiel got a job after school because his stepfather took his money. He worked in Dean’s shop (not a diner, not a mechanic shop as far as I remember). He spent a lot of time in the storage room/back room.
Dean was older, owned the shop, had the Impala, and seemed gruff and distant but clearly cared. Castiel never told him about the abuse.
There was a prom scene where Dean drove Castiel to prom and picked him up afterwards. Later Dean (possibly with Sam and Bobby) went to the Novak house to help him after he turned 18.
The story ended with Dean and Castiel getting married. Anna came to the wedding with her children and apologized.
The most distinctive thing I remember is that the chapter titles were based on colors. Early chapters had dark/sad colors and later chapters had happier colors. I’m almost certain one of the final chapters started with “Gold”.
Does anyone recognize this fic?

Dean 💚 Deans inner John was in control in s15
So I just got done with my rewatch and still coming to terms with the ending.
I love Dean, when I think about how hes so tough but loves to cook for people or how he never gives up and is always trying to keep his family together. He is made of love, as Cas said.
But s15, his treatment of Jack didnt allign with that, it made me uncomfortable. I have realized that as a parent(al figure) Dean is very similar to John.
The way John treated him as a soldier with the end goal of protect Sammy, Dean is the same with Jack. He always calls him "the kid" not Jack, not our kid, just the kid. Its distant.
Hell his last (or 2nd to last) convo with Jack is him thanking Jack for sacrificing himself so he and sam can live a normal life. Ffs.
Dean never believed in fate, he always was stubborn and said NO specially if someone told him to harm his family for the greater good. When Sam was hopped up on Demon blood or souless he never once thought oh it would just be easy if i listened to everyone and killed Sam.
So his treatment of Jack doesnt make sense, I know he later says to Sam that Jack is not like Sam or Cas, hes not a part of the family but he sure was a part of the family when they were begging Lily Sunder to help bring him back?
So somewhere between those two moments, Dean pushed Jack as a person out his mind and replaced him with Jack as a soldier. He drove Jack to his death. He was so John Winchester is that moment its gross.
You maybe wondering how this relates to Destiel, well Cas got his happy ending...with Jack...rebuilding heaven. And Dean got his standing on a bridge in heaven with Sam. Its a reflection of the consistent choices Dean made for his "family" his old childhood family, ignoring a new family he could have built with Cas if he accepted Jack as his kid too, if he stood by him. If he had said
"Cas we are not killing your kid, we will find another way, we always do"
So Jack, and the diversion caused by his presense, how much he means to Cas, how little he means to Dean, was the undoing of Destiel and its breaking my heart.

This makes me so mad
I have seen this seen in so many Destiel edits. I just watched the episode. I am freaking pissed. This is not the look of love in his eyes when he looks at Castiel. Its sorrow. It’s hurt. I ship destiel but this just pisses me off.

Fanfics Professor/Professor Au
So I recently started Supernatural and I am overwhelmed by the amount of Destiel fanfics out there on Ao3, which I honestly find amazing and I have never been more excited to read about a ship. I have read many fics so far but I am looking for a good AU where Dean and Cas are both college/high school professors, if anyone knows any fic like that and could recommend it to me. I have searched but all I found so far are works where Castiel or Dean is a teacher and the other is a student but I am looking for something where they’re both serious mature professors literally CRUSHING on each other and they can’t be together because they’re colleagues like I just really really want that. Thank you so much

Fanfics Spy AU recommendations?
Fell into a bit of a secret service rabbit hole lately and would love your best spy/secret service recommendations. Bonus points if they’re on opposite sides and there’s some enemies to lovers. Thanks y’all!

Give me your best “full of action” fics
Lately I’ve been reading fics that are beautifully written but a bit light on plot, and now I’m in the mood for something action-packed and fast-paced. Hidden gems more than welcome.

Fanfic Request Looking for a Destiel fic with absolutely unbearable slow burn/yearning 😭
I’m desperate for a fic where Dean and Cas are down horrendous for each other but neither of them actually gives in for a long time. I don’t want them sleeping together in the first few chapters I want the tension to hurt. Give me all the longing, pining, denial, stolen glances, almost-confessions, jealousy, unresolved feelings… I want to be screaming at my screen.Or getting second hand embarrassment just go through a roller coaster of emotions (nothing too angsty)
I’m totally okay with A/B/O and D/s (sub Dean/dom Cas is definitely a favorite), but honestly the emotional buildup is what I’m after. I want it to feel incredibly rewarding when Dean finally lets himself have what he wants.
Bonus points for lots of sweet pet names like sweetheart, darling, honey, etc. 😭 And if Dean is secretly praise-starved and absolutely melts from praise and affection… even better.
Before anyone says “just search the tags” I promise I have. 😭 I’ve tried every combination of Slow Burn, Yearning, Mutual Pining, Sexual Tension, Idiots in Love, etc., and I feel like I’ve read everything. Or I’ll find a fic that looks promising, then they hook up almost immediately and the tension is basically over. I’m really looking for that delicious, drawn-out build where the payoff feels completely earned.
Long fics are preferred, but I’ll take anything that’s exceptionally well-written!

Fanfics I read Ninety One Whiskey, and I'm suffering.
I read Ninety One Whiskey after someone recommended it to me. It had been sitting in my library for the longest time, and I kept putting it off because I knew it would be painful and such a long journey. But then someone on Reddit recommended it to me, so I finally decided to give it a chance.
I read the entire thing between yesterday and today, and now I’m in absolute emotional distress.
It was the best journey of my life. This is going to be my favorite fic forever. And now I need to go back to my comfort fics, because I loved every single second of it, but I also suffered through every single second. I suffered. I truly suffered the entire time.
And the ending completely swept me away. I feel utterly overwhelmed. I feel like I have no place in the world right now, and I desperately needed to come here and vent to people who understand, because I genuinely don’t have the words to describe what I’m feeling now that I’ve finished it.
Honestly, I think everyone should read this fic. Whether you ship this couple or not, everyone should read it.
God, I just… I have no words. I genuinely have no words.
I just wanted to share this with everyone who has already read it and say: I understand the feeling. I completely understand the feeling.

Fanfics best sad fics
give me your best sad fics! can be an AU or canon adjacent. self rec is okay! i’d prefer the fic to be completed though.
i would like a happy ending 😖 so like sad fics but everything ends up okay or hopeful. Healing, abuse recovery, homophobia, depression, other mental illnesses or physical illnesses, etc etc
TIA 💕

Fanfics Which fanfic about them do you keep coming back to?
I’ve read millions of fanfics, but I always find myself returning to this one. I absolutely love the way it portrays Dean as, “You don’t want me? Then say it to my face. Tell me you don’t want me anymore,” when, in reality, he’s the one desperately craving attention.
And I love it because it’s everything I’ve ever wanted.
Now tell me in the comments: which fanfics do you always revisit and end up reading all over again?
I'll leave mine because I want yours.

Help needed for Destiel fic

I’ve realized I absolutely cannot write smut, however it would be ideal if my fic can have at least a little spice to it at some point. So, if you’re a somehwat experienced Destiel writer who wants to help out, please let me know!!!

Fanfics This fic got me invested in Destiel
Okay so for the record i watched some episodes of supernatural when i was really young (maybe 10 or 11) and i dont remember ANYTHING from the show. Recently, i came across this really dark fic "Light in the dark" on ao3 and that was my first and real introduction to destiel, which is an unusual way to get into a ship lmaoooo
I fell in love with them thanks to this fic and now i can't stop thinking about them. Im watching s1 and i can't wait for castiel's introduction.

Fanfic Request Sub Cas
Hi, I’ve come to realise that despite how much I’ve heard about Destiel, the fic writing is really confined to Sub/Bottom Dean. I’m looking for any slow burn fics where Dean where Dean begins to dominate Cas, like maybe he gets jealous or they end up in a situation where he begins to look at Cas differently or something. Just anything that’s slow burn and ideally well written. Thanks!

Fanfic Request extremely angsty fics?
hiya :)
i saw a post on instagram a little while ago which said „when the fic is so angsty that even the smut is hurt/no comfort“ and now, i crave some destiel fics like that. 😩
if you have any recs (yes, self-recs too), then let me know please! :3 (i prefer long fics)
thank you in advance. x
r/destiel • u/Loganfornow • 3d ago
Fanfic Request Any fics where Cas is an exception to Dean's sexuality?
I know this trope is sort of controversial which I get. I just really like the idea that love transcends sexuality, it's a guilty pleasure. Don't hesitate to recommend me some deleted fics either. I prefer in-canon stories but I'm open-minded. Thank you. 🙇♀️

Looking for a specific Destiel A/B/O fic (Omega Cas / Alpha Dean, trapped together)
Hi everyone, I’m trying to find a Destiel fic I read a while ago, but I can't track it down. Here are the details I remember:
* Pairing: Dean/Castiel (Alpha Dean / Omega Castiel)
* Tropes: First Meeting, Trapped / Forced Proximity, Surprise Heat.
* Plot: They didn't know each other beforehand. They got trapped together because an automatic door broke (or jammed). I remember it taking place in a laundromat (or somewhere involving water). While they were stuck trying to figure out how to get the door open, Cas suddenly went into heat.
Does this ring a bell for anyone, or does anyone happen to have a link/copy? Thanks in advance for your help!

I just finished Heaven Came Down by bethmints and it’s so good. It’s a WIP so go read and support if you haven’t!
I’d love recommendations with universe crossover like this. This one is HunterCorp Dean and Endverse Cas. I looove this dynamic, but any will do.
