Everyday life in the Pack
A short, unbeta read story that will be posted on Ao3 too. It belongs in the Packrunners’verse and takes place when they’re all living together before Sam goes to college.
Dean’s sitting in Marlon’s armchair with his laptop perched on his thighs, writing a report that needs to be mailed to Bartholomew by tonight. Luci’s on the couch, feet rested on the living room table, Raphael’s legs on his lap, his own laptop perched on Raff’s shins. Raff’s lying on the couch reading a book on corporate leadership that Dean probably should read too once he’s done. Sam’s on the other armchair, reading, occasionally jotting stuff down in a notebook. He’d contacted his college to get the names of his professors then emailed them to get a list of what books to buy. He hasn't even started college yet and he's already read several of the books. 'I need to know that I understand the material, Dean. And what questions to ask if I don't.' He's been cooped up in the library with Dick a great part of the summer, studying. Dean's stupidly proud of the big dork.
Dick's out of state visiting friends now and Dean hates it. He’s spent a lot of time with Dick lately and they’ve developed a strong rapport. Dean only has to say a few words in a sentence and Dick gets what he’s talking about and vice versa. They’ve talked a lot about Sam since Dean’s struggling with letting go. Sam’s a big boy now. He doesn’t need Dean and he shouldn’t need Dean and Dean fucking hates letting go of the parental role he’d mantled when he was little more than a kit himself. It doesn’t help that Sam’s been in a bad mood around him, specifically, lately. Maybe he’s just overbearing and overprotective? Dean tries to leave his little brother alone. Give him space. That’s probably what’s wrong anyway. Dean being needy and clingy.
But right now all is well. Those at home gathered in the same room just for the company, but each doing their own thing. It makes Dean feel good. Not even Sam is being a pissbaby. Maybe he’s just nervous about going to college and Dean’s just overthinking, taking things personally when it’s got nothing to do with him?
They hear the door open and close, some rustling of clothes then footsteps. Out in the hallway, there’s a galloping sound and a long meow as the cat comes to greet the home-comer. That identifies Marlon even before they can hear him coo and chirp his own greeting since the cat only greets him that way. More footsteps and the sound of his office door opening when he goes to leave his briefcase in there, then, an indignant meow, silence, and a deep sigh.
A minute ticks by before Marlon’s on the move again. This time his footsteps are heavier, almost dragging. He comes to a stop in the doorway, smelling tired. 
“Wow, Sir. You look amazing today. You practically sparkle,” Sam jokes.
Dean looks up and sniggers. Marlon’s covered in glitter. A neat little pile of it still perched on top of his head. The cat winds around his legs―it too all glittery―and his shoulders are slumping in defeat. He gives Sam a tired look. “I suppose today was the day Gabe left for Asia?”
“Yes, it is,” Luci answers with a smirk.
“Of course it is,” Marlon mutters. “Lovely. Well then. I'll try to get the glitter off of Dolus so he doesn’t swallow it all while washing himself,” he announces and turns to leave, ignoring the sniggers behind him.
Dean goes back to working on his report then frowns. He’d been in Marlon’s office after Gabe left and hadn’t been dosed with glitter.
He looks up to see Luci typing on his computer with a small but notably smug smirk gracing his lips.
Suddenly, Dean knows why Luci was named ‘Gets Away With It’ on Gabe’s phone...

AU from Season 12 onwards. The British Men of Letters win in the USA,  and slowly manage to establish their bases and authority over the whole   country. They also capture Sam Winchester and keep him prisoner for   eleven months, experimenting on him regularly before wiping his memories  so that he has no idea what has been done to him. Even after   Dean rescues him and they begin planning to get revenge once and for   all, the niggling doubt at the back of Sam’s head remains – what did   they do to him? Why won’t his anxiety get better? And what is it that   he’s missing?

The Melancholy Waters Lie
Author(s): anyrei & mugglerock Artist: Hitori Alouette Rating: Explicit Length: ~90k Pairing(s): Castiel/Dean Winchester; (Jessica Moore/Sam Winchester) Warnings: Minor character death, Attempted Rape/Noncon, Drowning
Merifi had always been the guardians, the angels of the sea. The balance in their world, the light to the sirens’ darkness. As with time and   industrial growth, humans became aggressive, dangerous, uncaring in   their endeavor to put all life in the sea at risk. Unable to combat it,  the merifi and many other creatures went into hiding within their   kingdoms.
That was, until the fateful period in which humans  created such mass destruction, pollution, and chaos; the earth warmed  and the sea levels rose.
Humans who survived were forced to reside  in Teloah; the City of Death, and the sea was returned to its rightful inhabitants. Despite the shift, merifi of the Kingdom of Basgim were instructed by their King to never venture to the surface. But Castiel,   the youngest of the King’s three sons, had never been good at listening.
Fascinated by humans and the things they created, Castiel too often found himself   nearing the surface in curiosity, but never drawing too close, never   interfering in the affairs of humans on ships. That was, until a fateful night during a terrible storm, when a handsome human was flung from  the  safety of his ship.
It wasn’t like saving one human could possibly change his life. Right?

Welcome to the Glass City.

Lieutenant Colonel   Castiel Novak is the shining star of the Glass City’s Academy, mere   weeks away from graduating and being titled Commander of his own ship,   his own crew.
Castiel is very good at obeying.
Until he meets a man with green eyes, a cocky smile, and no barcode.

Not Without You
Author: jscribbles Artist: bees-are-awesome Rating: Explicit Length: 57,000 Pairings: Dean/Castiel (a little of Castiel/Hannah, a non-con Meg/Castiel) Warnings: various non-con   situations, dub-con situations, cruel and unusual punishment, graphic   depictions of assault and violence, humans put in solitary confinement,   forced ejaculation, drugs and substance abuse, use of barbiturates,   imprisonment, mentions of forced breeding, torture, sexual situations,   eugenics, emotional and physical abuse by authority figures
There’s   a virus spreading across the globe, rendering 80% of men infertile. In  a  rush to contain the spread of the virus as a viral hotspot arises in   South Dakota, the government implements forced fertility testing for  all  men, and a mandatory breeding program. The borders close, all   communication both interstate and across borders is shut down, and a   state of national emergency is put in place. The fertile   twenty-percenters are being redistributed to breed with society’s elite   women—moguls, celebrities, geniuses, CEOs. The eight-percenters are   being sent to work on farms or sent back to their regular jobs,   distributed via lottery. Dean and Castiel are not one of the lucky ones.
Victims   to cruel medical procedures, routine sexual assault, and other   atrocities under The Facility’s authority, Dean and Castiel quickly find   comfort in each other. They—especially Dean—scheme and plot their   escape with the help of Dean’s laywer brother, Sam, who is states over   but somehow instrumental in their plan. They find strength and love in  each other, but how long will they live in a facility that executes   rebels, and how long will they last when Naomi discovers that separating   them makes them weaker?

I Dreamed A Dream
Author: MidnightSilver Beta: wendibird Artist: Angel Rating: Gen Length: ~21,000 words Pairings: none Warnings: Canon level violence, some gore, angst, despair, child death - minor characters,
Six beings stand alone as the world crumbles and gasps it dying breath  -  a world of death from sickness and starvation; a world where  monsters   walk the day without fear; where the living wait for death  only to find  Death is no comfort.
Above this world sits the  Archangel who was  its architect. Below it waits the Vessel who could  not let go - who  laughed as it burned. And somewhere unknown is a man  lost to his family.  He fights, though his strength is almost gone. The  one who was looking  for him is broken - his hope destroyed. And the  last Angel is not  enough. He was never meant to stand alone.
This world is nightmare - but when you are alone in the terror of the night who can lead the way to salvation?

The risks are great, but he’ll do anything to save Sam. No matter what it costs.
