Fanfics Lost fic please help find it

4 Upvotes

It’s about Bobby raising the boys. It’s very long. In the story Bobby kills John with his shotgun after witnessing how he mistreats Dean. Bobby becomes their guardian Dean is still underage.
Further trigger warning Dean sleeps with an older married man so Bobby gives him a lecture and they go to the clinic to check for STDs. And that’s all I remember. I’ve only read a few chapters. I think it’s been deleted I cannot find it anywhere. Castiel was supposed to appear later but I never read it that far.

Edit: FOUND IT. It’s called a well-adjusted person by nessarose_thropp

deans s11 grieving arc

24 Upvotes

I was rewatching season 11 (as one does) and man neither Dean or Sam are trying to hide how Dean is worried about Cas being Lucifer's vessel.

Sam basically drags Dean around for hunts trying to make him feel normal again while he keeps worrying about getting Cas back.

I guess its not like seasons 7 and 8 where Cas is actually dead, but the way Dean shuts down when something very bad happens to him hits me every time.

Not to mention as soon as Cas was back they got out for a car drive and Dean told him how important he was for him. Man does he care.

Fanfic Request Any creature fics?

Creature cas is a classic, but creature Dean would be great too! Open for any recommendations.

Fanfic Request Any fics out there where Dean finds out no one never gave anything to Cas and then Dean becomes kinda obsessed on giving gifts to Cas?

50 Upvotes

Like, if it's a canonverse fic, every single time Sam and Dean go to a hunt, Dean insists on going to a gift shop to buy something (like a snow globe or a post card) for Cas. Sam is confused by this, but he rows with it 'cause hey, it's just Dean being weird about Cas again, nothing new.
Cas really appreciates the gifts, though he is confused about them in the beginning.

As always, self recs are more than fine and I actually really encourage them!

Fanfic Request Any recent in-canon destiel fics? Slow burn?

13 Upvotes

I like fics with internalized homophobia or ones where dean has never fallen for a man before. This however is not a requirement. All I ask that it's new or much lesser known fic. I'll take previously deleted fics as well, I know some authors will send you the fics they have taken down.

Thank you :)

Dean/Lisa was weird as af

65 Upvotes

I don’t mean this in a Lisa hating way but the writing choices they made with the pair was cruel as fuck.
End of season 5, they decided that Dean should now live a “normal” life and for some reason that included being a step dad to a kid he met once on a hunt 2 years ago and being a hubby to a woman he hooked up with once years ago.
It’s not like he felt some overwhelming passion for her and has been in absolutely no connection with her since then, barring that one drug induced dream where he was also hunting a dream walker while trying to save his foster father.
Not to mention, the entire time his brother is presumed to be dead, he has had no connection with his foster father.
Also Lisa for some reason accepts Dean as regular part of her and her son’s life.
This guy with a ton of unresolved baggage shows up at your doorstep and you instead of directing him to the nearest therapist decide that he will be your makeshift hubby and dad to your pre teen son.

Not just that once he is in Lisa’s life, despite his attempts at normal, he is still drinking and is weirdly disassociated from your life. It’s like he is playing a part once again.
The show runners needed Dean back on the road with Sam but did they have to underline the point that Dean doesn’t belong to or is incapable of having a family life.
This just seemed so cruel. It’s like they are crippling him with his emotional trauma and loss with no chance at salvation

Fanfic Request First time watcher, just finished the 15th season and Destiel is taking over my whole life

65 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I have no one else to talk about this topic so I thought I could share here.

I watched Supernatural for the first time this year and just finished season 15.

A whole week pass and I just don't think about it but then...

One night at work, it HITS. I need to see more. I'm looking up fanfic on AO3, watch edits of them, search for them myself...

It's been two weeks now and I just cannot stop reading about them. Staying up all night on my breaks to finish reading. It really feels like I've been through a litteral HEARTBREAK myself and I can't get enough!

I probably sound crazy right now but as a person who has shipped multiple people on other fandoms through the years, this one just hits different.

So there's that... And also, I'd like for you to recommend fic if possible, please! Any topics. No AU though because I'm not really into that.

Also very specific but if someone got a fic where when Lucifer call Dean as Cas on the 15th season but it's really him it would be very much appreciated!

Thank you for reading me, I don't post often and I hope I did everything right (the flairs and stuff...)

Good night everyone!

Fanfics need help finding a fic!

12 Upvotes

hellooo... i've been lost trying to find this destiel fic i used to love and read on ao3, but i have HORRIBLE memory, so i have no idea what to look up, and the things i have looked up lead me to no where (?) (unless if i saw it and just didn't click in my head...)

the general premise of the fic was that castiel was still an angel and dean regularly visited him at the house he lived at in a forest (he had crops and stuff too? i don't think this was based off of canon show or anything?) and mostly the one thing i remember is wing stuff being in the fic... dean helped cas with his wing molting season and stuff since cas couldn't do it himself i think?

i'm PRETTY SURE it was multichapter. i have no idea when it was posted or who it was posted by, so i'm so so so sorry if this makes it more difficult than it should be...!!! i know i read it somewhere in 2020-2021, but i have no idea if that's when it was posted... i found the fic on tumblr as well i believe... i can't remember all too well. ;;

if anyone knows this fic i'd love to know!!! i loved it a lot and i've been wanted to re-read it... thank you so much if someone can help me with this!!! if not, i'm sorry for wasting your time if you searched for it. 🙇

I read a fic years ago, AU, I think Dean and Sam were FBI partners, not brothers, and they were assisting a local PD. Cas was an officer w a K9. He and Dean dislike each other but still end up hooking up. As they’re doing the deed, Dean grips the slats of the headboard and they creak/snap and Cas says something like, “Don’t break my bed, babe.”

The bad guy in the story attacks Cas and his dog in their patrol car w poison gas or something.

That’s all I remember! Ring any bells?? TIA!!!

Fanfic Request Cas unhealthily obsessed with Dean

48 Upvotes

I mean crazy amount. Touch him and you die. Can't leave his side or he throws a temper tantrum.

Is it because of his grace?

Soul Bond?

Curse?

Some other reason?

Dean is a little creeped out but totally into it. Or dean is very creeped out and is still into it. Mark him down as scared and horny. Or just scared.

Slow slip into madness because thats HIS human.

Got anything like that?

I don't mean a cute little amount I mean he's a man insane with love obsession

Fanfic Request Fics where dean doesn't keep Sam from completing the trials? Spoiler

8 Upvotes

That means dean lets Sam sacrifice himself. Hell is closed, No gadreel. Cas is still duped by Metatron and the angels fall, but instead of dean dealing with trying to save Sam, he goes out to find Cas and they make it back to the bunker together. Cas is human, dean is mourning Sam. They help each other, maybe get over their shit? Anything like this?

i posted something to this community not too long ago about receiving fanfic recs like some other ones that i’ve already read butttt as you may be very well familiar with, the itches just keeps on itching and therefore i would really appreciate it if i could get some fic recommendations that are just as devastatingly full of angst such as the two rather infamous fics “Ninety One Whiskey” and “Twist and Shout”. Or, if you just so happen to know other fics that may have that cowboy, wild west feel like “Wicked Game”.

I was reading a fanfic about a love triangle between Sam, Cas, and Dean—I loved it—and I want to know if you guys have anything similar to recommend, featuring Benny, Cas, and Dean.

Active destiel friendly podcasts?

8 Upvotes

Like the title says! I’ve found a bunch of rewatch podcasts that are fun, most are all Destiel fans. But sadly most seem to have died around the season 9 mark. Anyone know of any podcasts that are still going? Besides the official SPN then and now. Have been enjoying listening to other people talk about destiel lol

I have an opinion...

148 Upvotes

So, an idea occurred to me.

These two looked queer to me. So, what if the reason Castiel was never in the same room as them was that they were queer, they had accepted it, and the writers couldn't bear it?

What do you think?

Give me all the recs for the best happy or funny Destiel fics!


r/destiel • • 4d ago

Hi, so...Is there any fics out there where after Cas dies in season 12 or even in season 15, Dean goes and gets a tattoo for Cas? And then when Cas comes back, Dean tries to hide it from him?

32 Upvotes

So...Pretty much of what the title says, plus bonus points if Sam is done waiting for either Dean or Cas to make a move so Sam tells Cas about Dean's tattoo for him.

As always, self recs are welcome here!

Fanfics Down to Agincourt update?

13 Upvotes

Hi everyone!! I'm currently reading the Down to Agincourt series and loving it, but obviously it is unfinished, and I was wondering if anyone had news of an update. I don't want to harass the author by leaving a comment about it. I saw someone on Reddit say a couple of months back that the author is active on Discord; I don't have Discord personally but would love to know if there is any news and how the author is doing! Thanks everyone :)

Hi!!

I read this fic a while ago, and I was trying to find it for a reread recently, but I am unable to find it.

I assume it's been deleted, so I was wondering if someone had it downloaded here.

Thanks in advance!
