Since it’s fanfic writer appreciation day I thought I’d actually make a short post and share some of my favs with you all. PLEASE feel free to add to this post some of your fav supernatural fanfics with trans/non binary/genderqueer Supernatural characters! Yes, this is a very destiel heavy list as I tend to lean more towards destiel in my fanfic preferences. I highly appreciate fanfic recs so please send them my way.
Orange You Glad by @shiphitsthefan Rating: E Ship: Dean/Castiel Trans* Character: agender Castiel Summary: Dean hates farmers markets and everything that they stand for. However, following a conversation with a new friend, an aptly-timed epiphany, and some impromptu pie-sharing, Dean's definitely rethinking that opinion. My Comment: I live for agender!cas and boy does this deliver. It’s funny and cute and there’s sexual food sharing. Hide Your Tender Hands by @almaasi Rating: E Ship: Dean/Castiel trans* character: genderfluid Castiel Summary: Human AU. Castiel is Dean’s new masseur. Their relationship is meant to be all business, but somehow their first session ends with a cuddle, and their second session leads Castiel to confess he enjoys watching Dean nap a little too much. Their third... well, their third session is especially intimate. After more than a year apart, Dean and Castiel meet on a train, having been invited to the same Independence Day gathering. Just like before, Castiel goes everywhere with his pet cat. But outside of work, he dresses and acts very differently to the polo-shirted smooth-talker of the massage room. Dean can only guess at how this snarky, tattooed, gender-bending sweetheart can render him such a wreck, all over again. My Comment: This is one of the first fanfics I read that really portrayed Cas as non binary/genderqueer and OH BOY DID I LOVE IT. Well, I love all of almassi’s works but this one just holds a special place in my heart. This one I particularly love just because of how Dean and Cas come together. They’re so aware of their flaws and nearly self destruct everything so many times but eventually they get it all together and realise that someone imperfect is the perfect person to fit in their life.
A Princess By Any Other Name by @unforth-ninawaters Rating: E Ship: Dean/Castiel Trans* Character: Dean (it’s complicated) Additional Warnings: graphic depictions of violence. Seriously read the tags on this as there could be some triggering material. Summary: Everything about this mission smacks of trouble. It’s not surprising that King John has set up an arranged marriage for Princess Deanna now that she has come of age, but why is he sending her to meet her betrothed with such a minimal escort? And why Castiel, who isn’t exactly known for his loyalty to the crown? And why are they stopping at the mage city of Ilchester on the way? Castiel doesn’t know and he doesn’t care, as long as the answers don’t get him killed. My Comment: OH BOY. I sent so many messages to Unforth when I was reading this because IT IS SO GOOD. ALL THE DEAN WHUMP. I think i cried a stupid amount. Like she is so good at hitting me in every single one of my feels but this one just got me so much extra. Made Manifest by @schmerzerling Rating: M Ship: Dean/Original Male Characters (pre Dean/Castiel) Trans* Character: trans Dean Summary: Wherein Castiel defied God for Dean before Dean even knew his name. My Comment: I fucking cried ugly tears. So many ugly tears. This hit me in every one of my feels.
