Supernatural really did the most by giving Dean a cowboy fetish that resulted in him having a crush on a male doctor only to then have an episode where Cas is dressed as a doctor, and one where he’s dressed as a cowboy.
I had the pleasure of claiming @destielpiebitch's incredible fic Paging Doctor Novak in this years DCBB! I've always loved a medical story of any variety, and I have a soft spot for nurse!Dean, so I was immediately drawn to this fic when I saw the claims gallery. It was such a delight to work with this author, and I feel truly honoured that I got to make the art for this incredible fic!
Go check it out here: LINK TO FIC
This fic also inspired me to make chapter headers for the first time! I made the stethoscope and clipboard in illustrator and added the watercolour-y background colours in photoshop.

Summary: Dean Winchester is many things — a nurse, an in-charge on the medical-surgical floor, and a big fan of the ladies. What he’s not is a commitment kind of guy, and he’s definitely not a night duty kind of guy. Things change when a hook-up-gone-wrong gets him lumped on night duty for an entire month, and to make matters worse, he’s been lumped on night duty with a brand new intern. As with all interns, Doctor Castiel Novak is cocky at best and dangerous at worst, but for some reason, and maybe it’s just the way his ass looks in those teal scrubs, Dean’s got a soft spot for the guy. Or a really hard one. Either way, it’s not long before Dean’s new roster is the least of his concerns; he wants that dorky doctor guy, and fuck, he wants him for real.
Wanna see his adventures with the Heart Pirates so damn bad. See him smiling and happy, not bloody and beaten 😭
See him party with his crew
Him gush and rambles about his coin collection, Sora comics, a medical journal he found at a bookstore or flea market; being the adorkable nerd and fanboy that we all know and love 😍❤️
