Summary:  Ace!Cas and Dean start dating, only to find out later that Cas may be more demisexual than asexual after all. Sex and fluff.

Review: Okay, what I loved about this fic is the understanding and patience between Dean and Cas; there’s nothing I like to see more than a healthy relationship where they actually talk about everything. 

Talking some more about relationships; I loved all of them. The relationships that Dean and Cas have with their respective brothers are amazing and very well written. Besides that, Dean and Cas are very cute and extremely domestic but that just adds to the pile of fluff, right? 

In the end, I had a really good feeling when I finished this fic, and also liked that you kind of get educated on asexuality and demisexuality. Yay for knowledge!

Summary: Two orders of coffee, one black, one Irish, and one green tea latte. Add steam, please, and hold the diabetes. The name's Winchester and Novak.

Review: The summary of this fic is really fun to read back once you've read it, because it finally made more sense to me!

I have a bit of mixed feelings about this one, but the ending made it totally worth it. Sometimes I found it a little bit too angsty, but that's probably because I'm literally incapable of handling angst. So it's probably not that bad.

As I said, I liked the ending and I also liked that fact that Sam was very present. I feel like it doesn't happen that much that Sam is that involved.

6. A fic with a one word title

Summary: Dean Winchester—his name is a sigh that melts on your tongue as you breathe it out. Each letter a pleasure to wrap your lips around. The kind of name you look for excuses to say out loud just to hear the way it lingers in the air, walls whispering Dean! Dean! Dean! long after you’ve stopped speaking.

Review: Me reaction to this fic is, in short: !!!!!

The only thing I didn't love was that Castiel seemed really... young. I know he's 17 in this fic, but sometimes he acted like he was younger than that. Anyway.

You gotta love some lifeguard!Dean, right? This was highly enjoyable and so. Cute. I almost have no words.  Can I just say that Dean giving Castiel a swimming lesson is fantastic to read. 

All in all: super worth to read this, and very, very cute.

24. A Harry Potter AU

Summary: Dean, Flying Instructor extraordinaire at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, has fallen head over heels for Castiel Novak, the criminally gorgeous Herbology professor. It’s definitely the most hideous man crush to ever grace the hallowed castle, and for Merlin's sake Dean hopes that he'll be able to bloody do something about it one of these days.

Review: Do you know what's so fun about the reading challenge? It gives me an excellent excuse to read more fics like these! Because Hogwarts AU's are literally one of my favourite things in fics, mainly because Harry Potter is life. Sorry to all the non-Potter fans.

So, here we have a story about two pining professors and everything that goes along with that. There's a misunderstanding, the almost awkward (but nonetheless adorable) interactions they have, and the moment where you're flailing your arms around because of the cuteness. There's also smut, so that's a nice bonus.

Let me also add that the swapping of house scarves is completely precious and is something I need.

A Good Day

Summary: Dean and Cas have never really got on, until the day that Dean finds Cas having a panic attack and comforts him.

Review: I am in love with punk!Cas. What I liked about this one, was that he wasn’t all tough. His social anxiety also made him more relatable for me, personally. I - luckily - don’t have any major panick attacks, but I could still understand him.

Now I made it look like this is a very angsty fic. Which it is absolutely not. Dean is really sweet about Cas’s anxiety and that just makes it really fluffy. He really tries to help Cas.

Summary: When Cas is placed in a dance class for his fitness requirement at college, his goal is to get out unscathed. However, his plans are thwarted when he meets the ridiculously attractive professor, Dean Winchester.

Review:Looking for some good ol' fluff with a lot of flirting? Then this is the fic for you. It had quite a lot of sexual tension and that ending was just so cute. You'll really like this.

Funny Peculiar

Rating: M

Summary: Castiel holds the mic to his mouth and says, in a rough, sly voice that hits all of Dean's buttons and then some, 'I look like a fucking nerd, don't I.'  It's such a bald statement of fact, it gets a laugh. Castiel's lips curve upwards, and without quite meaning to, Dean leans forward to listen. 'I mean that literally, by way: I look like a fucking nerd, like a nerd who fucks. What! Don't laugh at that, you judgemental prick,' he says, grinning so there's no sting in it as he points the mic at a chuckling guy in the front row, 'you think a guy in sweater vest can't get some cock if he wants it? I'll have you know, I had one whole boyfriend in high school. Yeah. I was hot property. You wanna talk about band geeks getting it on in high school, forget that American Pie flute insertion bullshit; ask a fucking gay hornist where he gets his embouchure.'

Review: Well, this one was a bit dfferent. But in the good way, you know? I'd never heard of a stand-up comedy au before and actually that's too bad, cause I really liked it. It was funny and original, and the smut at the end topped it off!

Summary: Dean finds out his coworker Castiel is going to be alone for Christmas, and in a fit of slight intoxication, he invites him to spend Christmas with his family. But when they get there, his family thinks they’re boyfriends.

Review: Aw, that was really sweet. Dean's family had a lot of Christmas tradition and it made this fic very Christmas-festive. I thought it would be a little more like a typical rom-com, but it turned out to be just really fluffy.
