Does anyone have a fic rec for TFW baby proofing the bunker?

Any baby and any ship except w*nicest is good just thinking about those motherfuckers trying to figure out how to secure the bunker for the use of a 1 year old who knows how to open doors

Summary:

Castiel loves his son, Jack, more than anything in the world. He works hard to provide for him and give him a loving home. But one morning, he wakes up feeling like he can’t breathe. 

or

A dadstiel story with a dash of Destiel thrown between where Cas deals with the uncertainty of the isolation and a father's love during the time of a pandemic. 

Promo

The kitchen cooking scene was quite fun with all the fiddly details.

Jack giving the world's cutest puppy eyes. Cas has his hands full for sure.

Some obligatory pie making!

Had honestly too much fun with these ones. Grab a cup of tea and snuggle up to read this fluffy fic. Thanks again to our hosts at the Dadstiel Mini Bang!

[vaicomcas]

It snowed overnight and I was reminded of this lovely Dadstiel fic by @heaven-ecologist. The snow in heaven and all the other wonderous nature of heaven that Castiel restored, and the angelic rite-of-passage that Castiel gets to share with his child.

Hi, hope this is okay to send! Given your interest in dadstiel and jack I thought you might like to see my 4k post 15x19 jack character study where he struggles with having become god and learns (with Cas’s help) that maybe this is one burden he doesn’t have to accept. (Big fan of your jack writing btw, genuinely blown away by how good the characterisation was in your 15x11 and 15x15 fics in particular!)

hi!! this is absolutely okay to send, and I adored your fic. I love devastating character studies in general and the stream of consciousness style of this one was sooooo good. and the reunion?? and cas feeling guilty?? my HEART. it hurt in such a good way. thank you for sending it <3

and thank you so much!! I love writing jack, I’m happy his voice came through in those missing scenes :)

#asks #fic recs #I also have a post 15x19 fic about jack learning to be god… total opposite take on it than yours but I wrote it two years ago lol #and I feel differently about things now yk #it’s not my best but I’m still proud of some of the dadstiel scenes in it so if you want to check it out it’s called just like starting over #on my ao3

Rec list of November

I still don't have time or headspace to write, but I settled a little into my new job so now I have more time to read! Get cozy and enjoy some fanfiction with me, as the night and the cold slowly take over my part of the world. I also finished a couple of weeks ago Neil Gaiman's The Ocean at the End of the Lane, and I LOVED it! Disturbingly beautiful, it's not scary even though it describes horrible mystical happenstance. I strongly recommend it.

Supernatural

Unveil the Splendours of Your Heart: 60k+ words of homeless Dean being comforted by the sight of Castiel, a billboard male model. Riveting. And the art is really engaging, too. Written for the DCRB 2023 by @thefandomsinhalor (Dean x Castiel)

Castiel’s 12 Days of Christmas: a little holiday spirit (kind of…) send to us by @mrswhozeewhatsis (No pairing)

The Race: As a way to amuse the gods, families have to run literally for their lives and the souls of their loved ones. And Dean needs to save his baby brother. An interesting universe created by @posingasme on AO3 (Sam x Castiel)

Taking back its leaves: The end of Dean's life seen by Sam. Since it was written in 2008, this future fic by Zooey_Glass reads like a AU ending. (No pairing)

Moonlight on the Water, Sunlight in the Sky: That time Castiel met Emma in Purgatory... a dadstiel story by @nickelkeep on A03. (Castiel & Emma, Castiel x Dean)

Original work

The Orphanage: an original work in short scenes about Diego the white medium by @verobatto on AO3. (No pairing)

Destiel Fic Recs

Time for another installment of River reads too much! Get your freshly minted fic recs.

Camp chitaqua by teen_dean @urne-buriall (Teen, 38k)

This fic is pure cuteness and joy, with some soft pining. Dean is ramping up for another year of summer camp. A mixture of training and fun for hunter kids, Dean pours himself into supporting kids going through traumas like the ones he survived. But the introduction of a mysterious and seriously hot new counselor (and his adorable son) throws Dean a curveball. 

This one has some great "Dean with kids" vibes and some great Dadstiel. It had me smiling and outright laughing at times. Plus we love a messy disaster Dean in this house. 

Bitch Better Have my Money (Series), by duckyboos @duckyboos-blog (5 works, Explicit, 254k words, another installment may be coming) 

Okay I am late to the party on these, so a lot if people have gotten to meet the mobster murder husbands, but I have to recommend this series anyway (with the caveat to mind the tags because things do get gory). 

Dean and Cas are such reluctantly horny for each other disasters in this fic and I basically devoured the entire thing in an embarrassingly bloodthirsty manner. The fic is loosely a Bad Girls AU where Dean, Sam and Charlie accidentally steal from Cas (a seriously bad crime boss), but neither seems to be able to resist the pull of the other. Dean finds himself being pulled into Cas' world and what he finds there opens up entirely new possibilities.

Take the long way home by dothraki_shieldmaiden @dothwrites (Explicit, 95k)

If you want a soft, healing fic that will in turn destroy you and leave you with a soft peace, this is the fic for you. 

Dean has retired and is restoring an old house, hoping that someday it will be a home. Cas is newly human and on the road, trying to prove to himself he's worthy. Sam and Jack are off on a road trip. In other words, things are fractured. But with quiet determination, maybe they can restore more than the house. 

Oh this one hurts so good. I, unfortunately, downloaded it for a plane and had to pretend to be normal in public while Doth broke me apart and put me back together. But the story is so good and the landing is smooth. 

Lazy ass rising by Fellshish @fellshish (Teen, 7.5 k)

Fells continues to perfect the art of making you laugh your ass off only to slip in a line so devastating and vulnerable, you feel your entire chest crack. 

Cas is back. Kind of. He needs a vessel to shack up in while Jack rebuilds his and Dean is willing to oblige. More than willing. Maybe a little too willing but there's no time to unpack that. 

Little does Dean know that Cas has nefarious plans to pamper Dean and feed him vegetables and make him nap. The horror!

It's about the time and space to be and the caretaker finally learning to accept tenderness and care himself. It's soft and sweet and hilarious all at once.

The Angel of Emetgis V by KaylieMalinza @kayliemalinza (T, 28k)

It's so many of my favorite things. Angel lore, science fiction, trueform!Cas and smart and competent Dean. This fic is so incredibly entertaining and the worldbuilding is amazing. 

After making a deal to save his brother, Dean is stationed on the Emetgis V, a broken down space station and vestige of a great migration of humans from the failing Earth. Years ago, it's said angels appeared and saved humanity by powering ships that took them to safety. But that's the thing of myth and legend. That is until Dean is doing routine maintenance outside the ship and he fines a glowing sentient orb of light.

PS, yes I did a list of trueform fics and neglected to mention this one yesterday. Nonny, come read this one!

More Than Kisses by FriendofCarlotta @friendofcarlotta (Explicit, 29k)

I'm admittedly a sucker for an epistolary romance, and this one hits just right. In an attempt to avoid repeating 11th grade, Dean agrees to join a pen pal extracurricular program. Things get off to a rocky start, but Dean and his pen pal, Cas, soon find themselves confiding in one another. Over the years, they become a constant in each other’s lives. But the status quo is threatened when Cas gets a new opportunity.

This fic is all about the emotional intimacy. Dean and Cas are both so lonely at times and the way they connect in letters is beautiful to watch. There’s a vulnerability but also a safety to writing letters and FriendofCarlotta really digs into that. There's something soft about this fic that makes it a comfort read.

Huckleberry by valleydean (emmbrancsxx0) @valleydean (General Audiences, 14k words(

You know how sometimes you read something that is so clearly a love letter to the subject matter that you kinda just want to bask in it? Yeah, that's this fic. Resident fandom cowboy enthusiast ValleyDean explores what would happen if Dean and Cas were sent to Tombstone and Cas had to use Doc Holliday as a vessel.

There are layers of pining as Dean and Cas compete with Doc and Wyatt for biggest dumbasses (affectionate). It's funny, entertaining and surprisingly poignant with some lines that will make you want to stare at the ceiling when you should be sleeping. 

You're My Dream Come True by Redamber79 (Explicit, 29k)

If you are looking for some fluffy, filthy smut with a side if heart melting friends to lovers sweetness, this is the fic for you. Dean and Cas are roommates and have been dancing around their mutual attraction for years because they are both idiots (affectionate). But when Cas shares a silly meme, he accidentally catapults them into new territory.

This one is very smutty so mind the tags, but it's their established feelings that set it apart. This Dean and Cas are just so far gone for each other and cocooned it the sweetest (yet dirtiest) little bubble. It's a true delight. 

Research Methods by TatteredBurningWings (angelshotgun) (Explicit, 8k words)

A smutty and hilarious romp in which Dean comes up with increasingly ridiculous reasons to hook up with Cas. This one is a whole lot of fun, particularly as Dean’s excuses for totally platonic bro sex with his bro Cas get more outlandish.

Basically, if you love a good the rituals are intricate fic, this is definitely what you are looking for.

[autisticandroids]

gonna post some links to some fics i've added to my fic rec list recently that i really liked:

things that probably will not happen in season twelve and hymnal:

similar fics by authors who seem to know each other. both about the bunker family in season twelve and cas and mary's places in it. hymnal also has some cas and anna flashback stuff which i personally really liked

sometimes a kind of singing

late seasons gen tfw fic. angsty and miserable and really really well done, especially the jack elements

dadstiel missing scenes

what it says on the tin. very sad cas and jack stuff that i liked a lot and thought was very well written

he ain't heavy, he's my brother

a cheerful one for once! season nine casefic but imagine tfw liked and cared about each other and had to solve problems creatively. this is what supernatural could have been

the wrong game with the wrong chips

horny endverse misery in the best way possible

[hawkland]

Greetings besties and beloveds! Next month, on May 18, I’ll be celebrating quite a personal milestone: my 50th birthday! (Yes, I am an old dinosaur. And yes, I share a birthday with Jack Kline, and I love that!)

I’ve spent over half my life active in media & music fandom and thought this would be a good excuse to hold a combination birthday/follower/content creator celebration, as I’ve also recently passed 700 followers for this ridiculous little blog. Getting into SPN after all these years has certainly been quite an experience, so now I want to do something to help share, promote and encourage more love from and within this wonderful community.

This event will run from May 18 - May 22. All forms of fannish creative content are welcome: art, fic, graphics, vids, poetry, rec lists on a theme…I’ll share it all! You do not have to follow me to participate. I’d just ask you to follow these rules:

Please @ me or use the tag #hawkland50th to make sure I see it so I can reblog it.

No w*ncest or underage content.

NSFW is okay if contained in an offsite link (ie, a Twitter link for art, an AO3 link for fic).

Content featuring (or even crossed over with) one of my other/past fandoms would be awesome, too! If we crossed paths first thanks to Law & Order SVU, Gorillaz, The Good Place, The A-Team, The Police or Foo Fighters fandom please feel free to participate as well and I’d love to see it!

Themes/prompts: 

I want to keep this fairly open-ended and up for interpretation/as you will. Those of you who follow me know my favorite SPN things are Cas, Destiel, dadstiel, and angelnatural. So really, anything celebrating those things would be awesome! I’m always especially tickled when someone is inspired by my own fannish works, so if you feel inspired to create a “remix” or companion piece to any of my own fic or artwork, I’d be completely over the moon. 

As someone who was a tremendous fan of Taylor Hawkins and given I’m still working through a lot of emotions from his recent passing, I’d also love to see some content inspired by his music and spirit. To that end I’ve put together a Spotify playlist of some of my favorite songs featuring Taylor, from both his solo projects and the Foo Fighters. If they may perhaps inspire an edit or serve as a fic prompt, that would be incredible. You can listen to the playlist here. 

I’ve also put a few color palettes I like as inspiration for art or graphics edits, which you can find below the cut. Use any of them for any day of this celebration!

I can’t wait to see what you come up with, and thank you for your friendships, encouragement and inspiration!

Color palettes (if you work in traditional media like I do, don’t worry about exact matches or anything, just use the general feels if any of them inspire you!)

[and-stir-the-stars]

the struggle of finding a good cas & jack fic without dean in it 😭 castiel stans are truly the oppressed ones in this fandom

we truly are :(

However, there's a dadstiel event coming up in December, so there'll be new fics, some probably without Dean in them, coming soon.

And I have two no-Dean (or Sam) dadstiel ficlets that I wrote on ao3 if you want to check them out: (x) (y)

And I don't seem to have very many Cas and Jack fics saved in my bookmarks on ao3 (I haven't been in the mood to read any fics for the last few months, unfortunately), but one that I absolutely adored was of Jack asking Cas about Meg Masters that allowed Cas to properly grieve her death. (x) (again, no Dean or Sam in this one, though he and Sam are both mentioned, mostly in a negative light if I remember correctly)

And I haven't read them yet but here are two relatively short dadstiel (without Dean) ficlets by @angelfishofthelord that are on my to-read list: (x) (y).

#i wanna write a fic for the dadstiel event but i just. i don't know what #i haven't been able to write at all and i hate it #anyway #thanks for the ask!! #it's gotten progressively harder for me to consume ANY content with dean in it so i feel ya #i'd tell you god's name if you asked #life is so hard when you hate the main character of the tv show you blog about. #dadstiel #fic recs #spn fic recs
