Epilogue by Jayne L
MA, Complete, Dean/Cas & Dean/2014!Cas/Cas, >27,000, Bottom!Cas
- Bobby is here, swearing somewhere above and behind him; and Dean is here, talking about 2014 like it's a foreign country; and Sam is here, and is not Lucifer. Which means--
Cas is no longer when he was. Lucifer sent him back.
Coda to 'The End'.

Face to Face with the Skies by quiddative
M, Complete, Dean/Cas, >42,000, Warning: [underage]
- (Set right after 4.22) Castiel was not killed by Raphael on the night of Lucifer’s release. Instead, he’s sent to the year 1996 and encounters the Winchesters. Unable to return to the present, Castiel resigns himself to traveling with them on their hunts across the states.
Meanwhile in the year 2008, Dean has barely gotten used to being back in the land of the living when he gets the biggest shock of his life; the man he fell in love with when he was eighteen has seemingly come back from the grave as well, claiming to be an angel of the Lord. The thing is, he doesn’t have a clue who Dean is.

I Have Stood Here Once Before by stangerine88
M, Complete, Sam/Cas, >48,000
- Centuries into the future, the world has ended. Neither Heaven or Hell have come out victorious as the last human soul is wiped from the war-savaged Earth. In a fit of desperate rebellion, Castiel goes back to the start, back to November 2nd, 2005 to prove once and for all that people make their own destinies. Only fate's a fickle bitch when you try to pull one over on her and Castiel finds himself in a time in which Sam Winchester is a far cry from the hardened hunter of his memory.
Already plagued by waking visions, Sam finds himself left with this mysterious angel as his only ally. Forming a delicate, somewhat awkward friendship, Sam and Castiel set out to find the Colt and to stop Azazel from freeing Lilith and starting the Apocalypse. Dodging Heaven, Hell and two over-protective Winchesters, the alliance formed through necessity slowly becomes something not even Sam could have seen coming.
Everything comes to head, in a graveyard in Wyoming where Dean, Sam, John and Castiel make their final stand.
Miserere by KatZen
T, Complete, >2,900
- When Dean comes to, he knows he's fucked.
He's not where he's supposed to be, which means somebody's probably taken him. He's hoping to God that it's just one of the less savory characters he ended up in a...business transaction with last night, taking things a little too far.
He's just hoping to God that whatever it is, it's human.

Strangers by Myurra-K
T, Complete, Sam/Cas, >2,000
