Tigerboy!Dean likes to sleep curled against Castiel, sharing body heart.
It made sense when they were in the jungle, shivering together in Dean's cave, but now they are back in London. Castiel has a fine house and servants to ensure that there are fires lit in all the rooms.
Dean doesn't need to slink into his bed at night, once the household has gone to sleep, but Castiel is glad he does.
He couldn't sleep without the sound of Dean's rumbling, happy purr.

Oh dear, that’s the cutest. I’m imagining Cas wearing glasses and every time Dean appears out of nowhere to pounce on something he’s studying, they get skewed as he jumps in surprise.
Yes! This is just everything I want.
I'm listening to the Tarzan soundtrack and now I can't stop thinking about tigerboy!Dean following Castiel around and imitating him. Then realizing Castiel is a hopeless hunter and trying to teach him how to pounce on things when Castiel is trying to catalog the birds and butterflies Dean is using for his practice.
profoundbondmates tigerboy!dean/explorer!cas verse (◕‿◕✿)
tigerboy!dean, I'm in love! I've had a shitty week and it's really cheered me up! Any chance of a cute little ficlet of dean trying to convince cas that he'd be his ideal mate?
"I can hunt."
Castiel smiled softly.
"That isn’t such a problem in London. The butcher and the grocer deal with that."
Dean wrinkled his nose, looking confused. It was obvious that he had no idea what Castiel was talking about.
"I am strong. I’m fierce."
"I know," Castiel said patiently. How could he explain to Dean that he didn’t need to be protected? He lived a comfortable life in a nice house, hundreds of miles removed from the life Dean lived here in the jungle. The traits that made him a good mate for another tigerboy wouldn’t be appropriate in London.
Dean huffed, obviously annoyed, then leaned forward, a wicked smile stretching on his lips.
"I make you happy," he said, so close now that he could nuzzle Castiel’s cheek. Castiel blushed because he couldn’t deny that. Dean did make him happy, however unpractical and inappropriate it might be.
In the end, wasn’t that the only thing that mattered in an ideal mate?
Does tiger!Dean make that adorable chuffing noise at Cas that tigers make when they greet those they care about? :3
You know he does!
He’s very fond of Castiel.
So are other people jealous of Cas' tiger!boy or does someone try and buy him from Cas as a specimen or is Cas asked to give talks when Dean starts going to parties and appearing in public?
There’s an awful lot of interest in Dean, of course. He’s almost unbelievable. People write into the newspapers that print reports of Castiel’s return, proclaiming that something such as Dean couldn’t be. Admittedly, the reproduction sketches of Dean don’t look very much like Dean. The journalists imagination has been allowed to run wild and Dean looks much more vicious with long, pointed fangs and wild, red eyes.
Castiel is persuaded to give a lecture tour by the general interest and misinformation that surrounds Dean. He wants people to understand just how wonderful Dean is, although Dean isn’t always on his best behavior at these lectures. More than once he’s fallen asleep and on one hair raising occasion he started grooming himself intimately on stage.
The lectures are sold out, such is the public’s desire to know more about this strange creature.
It isn’t long before Castiel is approached by people wanting to buy Dean. London Zoo offers to take him but they are at least polite when Castiel turns them down. Others, private individual, do not seem to understand that Dean is not for sale. Castiel could fund another ten expeditions at least if he did sell Dean, but he won’t. He loves Dean and Dean is not his property. He’s as much as person as Castiel, even if others haven’t understood that.
OH MY GOD WHAT YOU SAID ABOUT CAS TRYING TO DO DEAN AND SAMMY'S LANGUAGE AND DEAN LAUGHING AT HIM THAT IS THE CUTEST THING AND IM GRINNING LIKE AN IDIOT
Cas really wants to know what their language means. He quizzes Sam about it, but Sam can’t always be helpful. Some things just don’t translate well.
Castiel uses wax phonograph cylinders to record them speaking together. He ends up with quite the library, cataloging all the sounds they make. Sometimes, when he’s working alone, he plays them to himself and smiles, hearing his beloved family’s voices.
