Summary: Dean loves his job at Bobby’s auto shop, and he kinda has a crush on the cute accountant Castiel. One day he finds this sweet little note under the windshield wiper. It’s cute and sweet, and Dean is flattered. He just doesn’t know who put it there…

For the delightfully fluffy @the-fluffstiel-bang I got rescued by the sweet and amazing @twinone1221 . Not only did she rescue me, she even made an extra piece of art! I’m so stoked to finally share this with you all!

HIJACK THIS FLUFFFFFFFFF

[golby-moon]

made a thing for @the-fluffstiel-bang out of a claims gallery that may or may have not been written by one person

uh oh forced to draw furniture guys but thankfully nothing exploded too much. realized early on that I really messed up the scaling and stuff when I initially had the table further back in a way that made it seem like it was pushed right up against the kitchen counter and stove and very nearly was too lazy to fix that but alas. really went crazy with the disaster of a title that was originally going to be syrup before I decided to make it look like the words themselves are pancakes and idk how they got so decorated with everything except syrup but yeah that's a thing

decided I wanted to draw store shelves apparently and promptly spent way too much time making the boxes and generic names because that was obviously the most important thing to add. these don't look much like supermarket colors but let's ignore that because it was either this or like boring white so I took my pick

for anyone who's curious (which is exactly no one) here's all the knockoff brand designs I came up with, most of which are based on irl brands but remastered because I think I'm funny

(I'm not)

added another last minute art piece that I somehow got done before posting day let's goo. naturally I had to feature Dean and Cas cooking since it's such a major part of the theme, featuring Dean overly enthusiastically showing Cas what to do while Cas internally combusts. idk why I forced myself to draw furniture and people embracing, let alone at such a wonky angle but here we are ig. also don't look at the table and tiles and such too much the perspective was weird okay

this fic this is made for is called "Pancakes" by tickette for the fluffstiel bang

Several more months, an ill-conceived bet, a chaotic (and almost thoroughly unhelpful) group chat, a sexuality crisis, and almost the end of Sam’s sanity, apparently. Oh, and also a kitten!

Relationship: Castiel/Dean Winchester

Tags: Modern AU, Roadside Attractions, Fluff and Smut, Low Angst, Misunderstandings

Summary: Sam and Dean Winchester spent their childhood chasing Bigfoot and mermaid sightings with their cryptid-obsessed father. The legacy of that childhood is Winchester’s Weird Museum, a roadside attraction dedicated to all things mysterious, strange and unexplainable.

One day, Dean and Sam get news that a famous travel magazine wants to write an article about their museum. The article could be a game changer for them. But on the day the writer is supposed to visit, a series of misunderstandings has Sam giving a tour to the wrong person — and Dean accidentally seducing a hot, blue-eyed travel writer.

After all that, will Winchester’s Weird Museum get its magazine article? And does Dean stand a chance of seeing Castiel Novak again?

ART MASTERPOST - WHERE THE HEART IS by Redamber79

Have you ever made something embarrassing while being drunk? Well, Dean did. Actually more than one. But it seems like it turns out good for him... Too much jello shots, a wrong (or right?) address and finding home in someone. If you want to know more about Dean's shenanigans, you should read Where the Heart Is by Redamber79.

This is such a funny and lovely fic with all the fluff your heart desires. I can't recommend it enough.

Summary: Dean and Cas have settled into a cozy domestic life at the bunker, savoring every precious moment together in the rare lulls between hunts. Yet, beneath the surface, Cas is tormented by the fear that his waning powers will spell the end of their relationship as he knows it. Meanwhile, Dean desperately clings to the facade of being 'just friends,' convincing himself that he's content with the status quo.

When a case goes wrong in Sioux Falls, Jody gives Dean the nudge he needs to finally confront the truth of his feelings. With newfound determination, Dean resolves to bare his soul to Cas, consequences be damned—if only Cas would stop interrupting him.
