I wasn't really sure if this had been asked before, and I checked the tags first, but I was wondering if there were any stories centered around Chuck's books since we know they were still being published online, and Dean getting curious and in the process finding out how many fans support him and Castiel being together. Perhaps one where he stumbles upon some Destiel fanfiction? The funnier the better!
We’ve gotten similar asks before and so we’re creating a new tag to help people find fics like this. Relevant tags: shipper!becky, chuck, meddling!gabriel. So…here we go: TFW and fandom/fanfic/conventions/etc.
A Judicious Application Of Free Will (features the books and an SPN convention)
Excerpts From Carver Edlund’s Magnum Opus (kind of…; Bones AU - Chuck writes and draws inspiration from Dean and Cas; not a big part of the story)
The Fourth Wall (THIS FIC; fanfic)
It’s The Great Destiel Shipper, Sam Winchester (unofficially recced here; fanfic)
Kingmaker Verse (unofficially recced a billion times; SPN convention and fangirl interactions; not a big part of the story)
Paradise Forgotten By Carver Edlund (meta-y; Chuck writes)
The Path We Choose/Defy Any and All Expectations (unofficially recced here; features the books)
This Thing Called Free Will (features the books; not a big part of the story; definitely not a light/fun story)
Unexpected Destinies (features the books; not a big part of the story)
The Winchester Revision (meta-y but NOT light/fun; Chuck writes)

Life in the Men of Letters bunker had settled into a normal routine, if you could call anything about two supernatural hunters, a prophet of the Lord and a fallen angel sharing a secret society underground bunker normal.

Things only get stranger when Charlie tells the boys that she has found them a case - there is a haunting on the set of the Supernatural movie set. Yes, Chuck’s books are being turned into a movie and Sam, Dean and Castiel are none too happy about their lives being twisted into a movie for entertainment.
