Summary
This story was loosely inspired by my parents getting COVID-19 at the same time I was doing a Supernatural rewatch. Frankly, I thought S15E20 was a trash way to end fifteen years of character development of Dean Winchester and I abhor it. I've also always wanted to do some hurt/comfort so...voila. Vampires have COVID, someone gets sick, and Destiel becomes a real thing we can all have.

Summary
“Shit!” He hissed, pouring the whiskey over the wounds. Once they were clean enough, Dean grabbed a towel from the rack next to the shower and pressed it gingerly against his shoulder. It had been a close fight, closer than Dean usually liked but these days he didn’t care much. Every hunt he survived gave him a perfect excuse to drink himself into oblivion or climb into bed with a stranger; Every mile he drove took him closer to the one he wouldn’t.

Summary
After the Empty took Castiel, Dean pushed everything he felt inside a Very Secret, Very Closed Box in his head and swallowed the key. The Box had been intact and hermetic for two years in its corner of Dean’s mind, and because of that, Dean had been able to stay sane and focused. More or less.
But now, with Cas back, with every day they didn’t talk about what's between them, the Box is starting to leak.Castiel isn't complaining, far from it: He has a roof over his head, good shower pressure and food. He’s so grateful he’s afraid. Because he believed to have all those things once before, human and lost and confused, only to have the rug pulled under his feet.
And there’s the fact that, the last time he died, he carved his heart out for Dean to take, and the hunter hasn’t said anything about it.
Maybe that’s as good an answer as he’s going to get. -

Summary
A week after Jack left, he brought Castiel back from the Empty — whole, alive, and standing in front of Dean like nothing had changed, though everything had. Dean’s grateful. Of course he is. But now that Cas is here, really here, Dean is left face-to-face with everything unsaid between them. He knows what Cas confessed before dying, and worse — he knows damn well what he feels in return. But saying it out loud? That’s another story entirely, because there's something broken inside of him.
Dean asks Cas for something no one’s ever asked of him before: to go back in time, to the moment something broke, and stop it from happening. Stop the moment that taught Dean to be afraid of what he wanted most. Stop the moment Dean got broken.
Stop John Winchester.

Summary
"Jack dropped into the kitchen on a Thursday. Six months after Castiel died."
"One of the last pieces of Castiel stood in front of him, wide-eyed, and Dean felt nothing but shame."
--
"It happened on a Sunday — that Dean did laugh at, but who knows if that's because he was going through withdrawals and felt like he was going to die, or because God decided to rest again on the seventh day — when Dean woke to a faceful of hair."
"May 18th, they decided. The day Jack was born again."
---
Castiel's been dead for six months, and Dean's not coping well. How could he? Jack shows up with an idea that would change everything - not that Dean minds - and Dean goes along with it. Everything, yet nothing, changes, Castiel is still dead, and now there's a baby in Dean's arms. -

Summary
I hated the s15 finale, and all fix-it fics I found were too short (aka, they did in fact end), so I needed to add my own take to the multitudes ♥
Taking off from when Jack leaves, we see the repercussions of Cas' death, Dean's spiraling, and Sam and Eileen starting a new project. Of course, we will get Cas back (eventually)! And after figuring their shit out (Jack also has a few words to say,), we get to see their lives. Just all of them. Being happy. Imagine that. (alternating povs)

Summary
Now that Chuck is gone and Cas is back, they can finally just live their lives. Dean is still trying to figure out what that means for him and if he can trust Cas to stay this time. He’s also trying to figure out where Cas is getting the random assortment of objects he keeps pulling out of his sleeve. He always seems to have exactly what Dean needs. Or maybe the truth is that Cas is exactly what Dean needs.
--------------------------------
Cas flicks his hand in a motion that Dean finds familiar, the same one that always produces his angel blade. But instead of the silvery-white gleam of his signature weapon, a little book of matches falls into his palm. He hands it off to Dean. It’s from a strip club in St. Louis, judging by the mirrored silhouettes of two curvaceous women and the address printed on it.
“Got something to tell me?” Dean chuckles.
“Yes. I agree you’re getting too old for digging up graves. Although I assume you were asking where I got the matches. I’m not going to tell you.”
Dean gapes at him. “What? Why?”
“Because the expression on your face is hilarious,” Cas says, and saunters off toward the car.
