This is just mostly a handy little post for me but I asked people to rec me some destiel AU best friends to lovers fics and this is what I got:

Recs from ltleflrt:

okay, cupid. by orange_crushed On Air by wincechesters Just Turn Around and Go by @porcupine-girl Version 2.0 by Elizabeth1985 aka @cocklesheadboop Ignore the Butterflies: Best Friend Advice from Dean Winchester by impatient14 A Match Made (and Misunderstood) by surlybobbies More Views. More Money. by herbivoredinosaur Remember When by VioletHaze aka @scones-and-texting-and-murder When In Vegas by Dmsilvis & TobytheWise

Recs from doctorprofessorsong

One of my favorite fics of all time is Evangelist by @valleydean. It's really enemies to friends to lovers but the enemies part becomes friends pretty quickly because they are deeply obsessed with each other. One of the classics if you haven't read it is To Build a Home. Childhood friends who broke up and find themselves back in each other’s life. It is very angsty but they have a lifelong friendship so you get a lot of childhood and teenage friendship moments. If I may self recommend, I just wrote Can't Fight the Moonlight in which they are in this post canon partnership and both want to add sexual intimacy but the partnership is soft so you get some really fun platonic intimacy. It's not AU, obviously, but may have something of what you want. Seraph by @dothraki-shieldmaiden is a superhero au where they are friends and roommates to lovers. It has great world building. More than Kisses by @friendofcarlotta is a friends to lovers epistolary romance. Dean and Cas are pen pals and they share an absolutely gorgeous emotional intimacy. Tiamatv has a few that fit the bill. I'm gonna mention Marchen because I love the world built in that one. Dean Winchester is a prince locked in a tower. Feel free to also skim my fic recs. @riversrecs

Recs by castiellesbian:

tiamatv's "It's the End of the World (As We Know It)" is a friends to enemies to lovers if that counts? They were childhood best friends in that one "A Midterms Night's Dream" by Englandwouldfall is an au where they're roommates (oh my god they were rommates). "In Some Sacred Place" by schmerzerling is a good one where they're friends throughout most of the fic, but it's kind of depressing overall

Recs by butch--dean:

spirit of the west by teen-dean (everyone should read this 90's horse girl dean au where he befriends cas, a local veterinarian) I carry your heart (I carry it in my heart) by unicornpoe (I am a sucker for all "cas using dean as a vessel" fics) Après by imogenbynight (surely everyone has read this? dean and cas in paris what more can you ask for) under the midnight sun by northernsparrow (dean is the caretaker of a research station in the arctic and cas is a mysterious bird researcher) (I also rec you can keep holding on by this author but be warned that it is very grief-driven - but it is an in-depth study of the way they care for each other) though the course may change by imogenbynight (fake dating AU at a couple's retreat - another one that everyone has probably read but is so worth mentioning in case you haven't) there's no cell service in the afterlife by screamsintothesun (cas gets back from the empty and his phone blows up with dean's voicemails & texts) Gold in the Edges of Our Vision by SewingNatural (dean and cas eat peaches together on a hot summer evening. The writing style on this one is really really lovely) these are just a few from my bookmarks but also there is a really good rec list here & here (this one has a link to a specific friends to lovers list here) that I refer to often when looking for new fics/authors to dig through!!

Human Cas - Part 8

Let Me Give the World to You - zerostumbleine33   Ao3

Set S8 AU.  When Cas wakes up in the bunker human, he doesn’t have a lot of memories past getting out of purgatory, only told by the Winchesters that they were more concerned with keeping him alive than whatever had happened.  But he gets clues they do actually know what has happened and it had something to do with heaven.  Meanwhile, he and Dean are growing closer as Cas is getting used to being a human.  But the secrets will cause problems.

@lightmyways​ asked:

from gabriel to raleigh + gabriel hears raleigh get in the shower, so gabriel takes the opportunity to calmly undress and join him. he quietly steps in behind the other male, moving in and wrapping his arms around raleigh's middle, slowly mouthing at the blonde's shoulder blade, the curve of his neck, and just beneath his ear - not saying a single word.

Skin burning hot from the water, the blonde eases back onto the larger man, arm moving back, cupping the nape of Gabriel’s neck. It had been a long, strenuous day at work, and the intimate attention was more than welcomed. 

A groan escapes, eyes slide closed. “How’d you know I needed this?”

#lightmyways #;; nsfw-ish

word prompt meme + [ run ] adam running their fingers through clyde's hair, maybe after clyde's had a particularly taxing day at work?

Leaning back into the work seat, Clyde had yet again brought work home with him. He had promised the other that he would stop doing it, but when deadlines and such seemed to be piling higher and higher, due to a clinical error by his assistant, he was left with quite the stack of papers that he just had to get through. Apparently, his partner had mixed up the dates of their vacation, so all the case work had been assigned to him, and there was nothing that he could do. Giving a sigh as he felt the other approach, running their fingers through his head, he immediately grinned as he looked up at the other, knowing that he was definitely not doing what he was supposed to do. “I know you said no work from home... but this is kinda my busy season...” Maybe that were true just to justify why he was hunched over his desk still, looking at the time flashing clear past midnight. “Maybe I can take a break and go to bed.” The man looked up at the other and did his best to put on a good face. “How was your day, babe?”

nsfw prompt meme + [ kiss + soft ] gabriel pulling oliver into a tender kiss.

For what seemed like hours of love making, tossing around in the sheets, and endless passionate making out, Oliver still seemed to have enough energy to be awake and simply stare at his formidable lover. The writer seemed to have a way with words just as much as he had a way in the bedroom, telling him sweet nothings over and over as the morning light seemed to begin to grow on the horizon. Humming a bit, he felt the other pull him into a kiss, finding himself blushing as the other was continuing to press his lips against his, a simple whimper left his lips as he felt completely at peace with the other wrapping his arms around him.

protective prompts + “get some rest.” + luca to mason, running a hand through mason's hair and gently kissing his forehead.

Looking at the other, staring deep into his eyes, he knew what he was getting himself into every time he was falling asleep in the other’s arms. Finding each other wasn’t as simple as he had liked, nearly bringing the other’s daughter back from nearly life-threatening injuries, and doing his best to console the father at the time. But that relationship seemed to continue and change as time went on, keeping their contact to the point where they started seeing each other and now sleeping together almost ever night that Mason had a night off. And that night was definitely a bit more rough than usual, given that he was still worked up about a lot that he saw. Nodding at the other, his deeper breaths and the kiss against his forehead was exactly what he needed, “Okay...” Mason replied, leveling out his breaths before scooting his way closer to the other. “Thank you...”

kink meme + jamie placing a collar with a chain around finn's neck.

@lightmyways

“Are you sure about this, Jamie?” Finn gasped when the collar was clipped in place, feeling the strength immediately leave his body. It was an expensive piece of gear: a collar capable of returning Finn to his human speed and strength, but Finn had promised Jamie he would wear it. “Or am I supposed to call you Sir?” He added, giving a quick tug of the chain to test his strength against the much taller man. “I’ve never been great with remembering the rules.

“... The chain is a nice touch.” Finn had a habit of disappearing off into crowds whenever Jamie turned his back; he briefly wondered if the chain was in response to that. “Is this... My outfit for tonight?”

♣️ you ready for this?!?

♥ send one for my muse's reaction! ♥

♣ – A spinning hug

There was a startled noise that emitted from the ghost as he was lifted into a sudden hug and spun around. Colors radiating his surprise at the sudden hold he found himself in, flashing in a wide array of hues that reflexed the emotions coursing through his being. Mostly consisting of surprise and confusion at the sudden event.

Especially from a complete...stranger??

"Uhhh, I'd like to be put down now...oh geeze..."

The room was spinning now from the little twirl. Not wanting to find out if his new found abilities included upchucking. Could a specter even upchuck? Well, he didn't want to find out regardless.

Lights

The lights just there twinkle different

They light up all my heart and soul

I feel better

When I see their lights are on

The lights right here are dimming

They barely light my way

I feel without

When I know my lights won’t come on

I am sitting here in this dark hole

Staring at their lights just there

Hoping that it will be enough

To help me feel better

Until the light in my heart comes on again

Epic Length Fics - Part 6

I'm about to go on holiday, so I've cued up some longer fics to get me through the plane ride.

Don't Tell Sammy – MurderousQueen   Ao3

Set S9.  A haunted apartment building that caters to the queer community has Dean approaching Cas, asking him to pretend to be his boyfriend for the hunt.  The one thing he asks is that Sam doesn’t know because he’d tease Dean.  While living together Dean lets his walls down and lets Cas see more of the Real Dean than anyone has seen before.  If you want a happy ending, I recommend skipping the final chapter and reading one of the alternate endings, I liked the first alternate ending.

Word Count: 242k                            Graphic Sexual Acts

Kiss Me in the Bread Aisle – eemwrites   Ao3

Set S6ish AU.  Angels are dicks but at least that apocalypse is over, now its just ordinary hunts for the Winchesters, until Dean meets a random angel in a trenchcoat in a supermarket one day.  An angel he accidentally uses as a model for a fake boyfriend when being pestered by his friends.  When he finds out the angel – Castiel – needs help escaping from heaven, he has a well warded place for him to hide, in return he just needs Cas to pretend to be his boyfriend for a while.  And then Dean starts having dreams about Cas and an alternate way he got out of hell. (This is canon verse, but with timelines so changed that its almost an AU)

Word Count: 114k                            Graphic Sexual Acts

He Thought He Knew Him – lightmyway   Ao3

Set S2 AU.  Dean has a one night stand with FBI agent Cas Novak that turns into more.  But when Cas’ cases start intersecting with hunts he may learn more about Dean than he expected and its going to change everyone’s world.

Word Count: 280k                            Graphic Sexual Acts

Oath of Redemption – JadedQuill   Ao3

Set S7 AU.  A newly human Castiel was spit out much closer to the Winchesters hideaway and they were quickly reunited after his supposed death via Leviathan.  Now while he is fighting his guilt over the things he has done since the apocalypse, Cas has started sharing dreams with Dean, something that is going to lead to their relationship changing and a new case.

Word Count: 138k                            Non-Graphic Sex

Cas, You Had A Baby? - allthebeautifulthings9828   Ao3

Set S6ish AU.  Tasked by heaven to raise a new baby angel, Cas and several other angels escape, not wanting these babies to be brought up the same as they were.  Dean is 100% on board to help out.

@lightmyways asked: “i see you. i know you feel so invisible all the time, but you’re not. not to me.” + jackson to johnny.

The blonde looks over his shoulder as if Jackson is speaking to someone else, before his attention turns back to the other man. “Don’t feel invisible, I’m very much seen because I make myself seen.” He takes a long swallow of beer, placing the bottle down on the bar top. “Or was that your way of hitting on me?”
