Something to fight for

Something to fight for by anyrei || @anyreiart Rating: Teen and Up Word count: 13K

When Cas goes to an apocalyptic parallel world to find an ingredient for a spell to cure Sam Winchester from a curse, he finds a little girl is the only survivor in a world dominated by demons. Saving her will start the journey of his own true happiness.

If you want a Dadstiel story, but not with the usual suspects, this is the place to be. It's also a big plus if you are a fan of post-apocalyptic tales, because the descriptions and the whole vibe of the story will plunge you right into that eerie world.

When he finds the girl, Castiel is immediately drawn to her child-like innocence that does not belong in that cruel place, and, being the amazing angel that he is, he goes out of his way to make sure she stays safe, promising himself to bring her along when he returns home.

There is a certain melancholic feeling throughout the story that makes your heart ache, but then you read about Cas teaching Kira something new, you read how sweet and caring he is, and it just mends everything. Of course, not everything can work smoothly, but that just makes it all the more fun to read. Naturally, a happy ending is ensured. A very happy ending for Cas, Dean, Kira, and Lady Giraffy.

Author: @adunaphel-the-quiet Artist: anyrei @anyreiart

Rating: Mature Archive warnings: Graphic Depictions of Violence Length: 18,100 words Tags:  Mermaid AU, Deaf Castiel, Mutual Pining, Soulmates, John Winchester's A+ Parenting Relationships: Dean/Castiel, Gabriel/Kali, Cain/Colette, Sam/Jess, Benny/Andrea, Garth/Bess, Arthur/Meg, Charlie/Dorothy

Summary:  

Every mer is born with a soul song: a song only they can hear.

A song so powerful that it vibrates deep within, with every heartbeat, every thought and every fiber of the mer’s being.

When two soul songs resonate with each other, they form a profound bond that ties the two souls together for life.

This is how they find their soulmate.

Which is why Dean finds himself swimming south for the fifth day in a row to take part in the annual mating festival.

Excerpt: 

Still deep in thought over Gabriel’s words, Castiel does not pay attention to where he is swimming until his chin makes contact with an obstacle in his path.

Looking up, he surprisingly notices that said obstacle is a broad chest that belongs to an even broader mer. 

Catapulting himself back in shock, Castiel raises his eyes to find an unknown face looking down at him with unexpectedly kind dark eyes. The man's face erupts into a bright grin, but Castiel cannot make out what he is saying, as he bumps right backwards into another person. 

Trying to extract himself from this new situation, he makes eye contact with the second stranger he so ungracefully encountered on this day, and all he can see is: green. 

The stranger’s eyes are the most enticing green Castiel has ever seen. 

He feels the stranger’s chest rumble with an upcoming response to his clumsiness, but he is not willing to wait for the unavoidable blow he is going to receive, so he frantically extracts himself and swims away as fast as he can manage in the crowd, ignoring raised fists and shouted insults of the people he bumps into on his flight.

“Aww, you scared him, brotha,” Benny says before erupting into roaring laughter as he and Dean look after the fleeing stranger.

Summary:  Sam believes the Profound Bond between Dean and Cas is the same as The Law of Entanglement.

Therefore, he believes, when the two particles, his brother’s soul and Castiel’s grace, became entangled, they remained joined even when separated by vast distances. If he’s right, even with Cas gone, the bond is still connecting them, and it’s slowly killing Dean.

Unbeknownst to Sam, others believe it as well.

Now, with everything on the line, the bond will be put to the test in ways universal laws have never considered. Will their Profound bond hold or will the fates win in the end.

Congratulations on posting @anyreiart and @queerwolfsstuff. This is such a great fic, and I feel lucky that I got to read it first, as your beta. 💙💚

Masterpost for Touched With Grace

Summary: 

The first touch between soulmates leaves a mark on their skin. Dean has resigned himself into accepting that maybe he and Sam just don’t have soulmates, which tracks with how much Heaven has intervened in their lives and supposed destinies. When the angels fall, and Cas becomes human, Dean discovers just how wrong he was.

After Dean touches Cas’s shoulder and a soulmark appears, he realizes the handprint he has carried on his own shoulder since Cas raised him from Perdition is actually a soulmark. Castiel, the angel of Thursday, a seraph that sacrificed his life, his place in Heaven, who gave everything for the cause, for a couple of “mud monkeys,” is actually Dean Winchester’s soulmate. After years of repressing, hiding certain feelings that, deep down, Dean wanted to experience differently, or even for the first time… He’s finally going to get that chance, in the arms of a former angel.

Summary: Dean Winchester leads an ordinary life in a quiet little town in the US. The most exciting thing that ever happens to him is when he gets to work on a beautiful classic car… That is until a strange man in a blue box crash lands next to him and his whole world turns upside down, in more ways than one.

Dean learns that he’s in danger from someone he thought he could trust, and the only person who can save him is the man in the blue box - The Doctor/Castiel - who also happens to be the most attractive man Dean has ever seen.

Can The Doctor save him, and what will the future hold for them once Dean doesn’t need him anymore?

I had so much fun writing my @cdrcrossoverbang fic - a fusion of Doctor Who and Destiel - and I’m delighted to be finally posting it.

I was so happy to get my first choice of art for this bang, especially as it meant working with my dear friend @anyreiart. Thank you so much for the awesome art, and for being so supportive and helpful in developing the story. 💙💚

Thanks too to my wonderful friends @eyesofatragedy67 and @queerwolfsstuff for the beta’ing, suggestions, and encouragement. 💚💙

[colorlessjay]

hello! may be a weird request but do you have any fanfic recommendations?

BUCKLE THE FUCK UP

OH DO I HAVE SOME RECS FOR YA'LL

Mind you, 90% are based on personal preference and fics I think about way too often than I should. A lot of them influenced the way I make characters interact

Some of them might not be your taste and that's cool!

First off, Gotta promote the fics that people wrote inspired by my art (I am truly honored)

Time Cast A Spell On You by bethefirstwhoeverdid

Cabin of Feathers by Featherpie (Izupie)

Return To The Past by faeryn

NOW FOR MY COLLECTION

Just any fic written by everandanon

I swear to you, all of their fics are worth a read. They are frustrating (In a good way for me) but the worldbuilding, comedy, dialogue, and character interactions always have me physically getting up and laughing. At one point during Quarentantion, I had to stop reading to rant to my friends about it because it made me feel so much that I went to 3 different friends about it. With Interest actually made my heart physically hurt at certain points. Expectations had me on a roller coaster ride But if you think their fics are a little overwhelming, I recommend reading Casicorn. It's the first ever fic I read from them and it solidified my love for this author. I swear I am on my hands and KNEES waiting for them to finish their newest fic

Where All My Journeys End - (a Twist and Shout alt universe) by Say_It_In_Enochian

Did reading Twist and Shout devastate you? Did it emotionally hurt your heart and make you wish there was something to make the pain lighter? READ THIS FUCKING FIC NOW I got so fucking lucky when I found it immediately after reading T&S and when I tell you the JOURNEY this fic took me? It healed my soul The struggles, the history, the relationships, the LONG fight to get to their happy ending I am FLOORED this doesn't have 1000 Kudos!

The Ed Sheeran Effect by tricia_16

It made me laugh. That's it. It's sweet and funny and really fun and just feels very campy, like it could've been a decent movie I would rewatch on days I just feel like feeling good Am I a sucker for HighSchool/College AU fics? Yes do I fucking care? No

The Best Years of Our Lives, My Ass by ireallyhatecornnuts (CharleyFoxtrot)

I. fucking. love. this. fic The story alone was so interesting but it was the DIALOGUE that hooked me in. I swear I think about this fic in the middle of drawing and go "Damn, good times" like it's a long lost friend

Slide Away by Castielslostwings

It's the TENSION that got me. I can't explain to you how much I just love their hate-pining for each other Read it, love it, in my digital bookshelf

Sleep Without You by turningthepages

Hilarious. The density is so high it could float. I swear to god I've read this fic at least three times and think about it once a week I remember reading it and cackling so much that I woke up my mom

Should've Just Asked by Annie D (scaramouche)

I wish this fic had a follow-up that was just Dean's perspective because I would LOVE to read more of it. The situation is so absurd and I binged it all in one day (I'm a very slow reader)

Pinfall by crowleyo

I'm gonna say it. I'm so actually angry this fic doesn't get enough attention. It is so so SO well-written and heart-wrenching. Am I still a sucker for highschool sweethearts? YES! I OPENLY ADMIT THIS! But COME ON

Of fuming and partaking and so on by zation

This fic and literally any fic from Zation. I absolutely love the way this author writes. It's so funny and self-aware and the dialogue and scenarios always keep me entertained and laughing They have such a large catalog of fics that I'm pretty sure I have at least 15 saved on my phone

Mr. Blue Sky by anyrei, queerwolf79

This fic specifically and literally ANYTHING from these two. I swear, a lot of their fics are certified bangers. Mr. Blue Sky is probably a personal favorite of mine cause I actually teared up

Love Me More by Saiorse_Irvyne

I'm not the biggest fan of A/B/O stuff, but MAN this has me feeling things. When a fic makes me feel strong emotions, I just gotta recommend it

Lock and Key by tricia_16

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH it's THAT good

Kind Of A Forever Deal by komodobits

It's FUN. It's FUNNY. It's so fucking campy and cute and the progression of their relationship was just AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

It's Always the End of the World Somewhere by Annie D (scaramouche)

I can sit here and recommend Annie D's fics all DAY, but I'm recommending this one specifically because of this: “Get a room, assholes,” someone mutters. “Hey!” Crowley whirls on the offender. “I could set on you on fire!” And that's one of many fantastic quotes

Cinderwings by bendingsignpost

One of the first fics I've ever read from this fandom, and I recommend it to ANYONE regardless of whether they know Destiel or not. The story is so fucking captivating it makes me want to eat my foot it's so GOOD

--------------

Do I have a type when it comes to fanfics? Yes

But I like gravitating towards funny dialogue and silly shenanigans. I thrive off of fun fics that sometimes take themselves seriously, but still pull me back and make me laugh

If a fic can make me feel such a strong emotion that I PHYSICALLY have to get up? Then fuck yeah it's going in my archives

I would recommend some of the darker fics I have, but this is for fun

Coming soon for the @destielaureversebb: “Where the Oakhearts roam” 

Author: SakuraKitty @wolfiepyxie Artist: anyrei @anyreiart

Rating: Mature Archive warnings: No archive warnings apply Length: 50,000 words Tags:  Viking Dean Winchester, Oakhearts, Magic, Acquaintances to Lovers, Slow Burn, Dean Winchester Has Trust Issues Relationships: Dean/Castiel

Summary:  

Injured and separated from his clan, Dean stumbles upon a man living in isolation by the name of Castiel, whose only company are creatures named the Oakhearts.

Certain that trusting Castiel will be his downfall, Dean goes about his recovery days being constantly on guard and vigilant of the man he barely knows who has taken him in. And with each passing day he gains more questions than he does answers. Who is Castiel? Why has he secluded himself away from other people? And furthermore, why does he cause such confusing feelings within Dean?

Excerpt: 

The man before him certainly had the build of a warrior with broad, strong shoulders and powerful thighs that filled out the man’s breeches in ways that Dean was not accustomed to seeing. Or rather, he was not accustomed to noticing such things. The man in question, though not appearing to bear the crest of any known clan, was so akin to many Norsemen he knew and yet not simultaneously. And as Dean finally looked at the man’s face he, surprisingly, found himself lost in the most intense pair of blue eyes he had ever seen. They were the deepest of blue, much like the ocean that had been Dean’s home for quite some time before they made ground here.

It was more difficult than expected to break whatever trance the man’s eyes seemed to put him in, but Dean managed as he continued to assess him. The sword at his hip further proved that the man was a warrior but many, even those who were not warriors, still carried a weapon on their person to defend themselves with. So the fact that the man has a sword does not make him a warrior, it would be his prowess in battle that would make him one.

“Who are you?” Dean demanded as he pointed the blade of his ax at the stranger. If he can’t kill him and if the man has no intention of doing the same to him then the least he could do was get some answers.

“I am Castiel,” the man, Castiel, said as he continued to maintain a respectable distance. “My apologies if I startled you. I saw you lying here and grew concerned that you may be injured or worse,” he said and it was odd because he did sound truly concerned for Dean.

Summary:  Sam believes the Profound Bond between Dean and Cas is the same as The Law of Entanglement. 

Therefore, he believes, when two particles, his brother’s soul and Castiel’s grace, become entangled, they remain joined even when separated by vast distances. If he’s right, even with Cas gone, the bond is still connecting them, and it’s slowly killing Dean. 

Unbeknownst to Sam, others believe it as well. 

Now, with everything on the line, the bond will be put to the test in ways universal laws have never considered. Will their Profound bond hold or will the fates win in the end.

Excerpt:

“I cannot handle their pain any longer.” The thoughts coming to her are loud in her mind.

“We are almost done with everything you have set out to do. Should we stop?”

“No, but we need to hurry. If he continues as he has been, he will only have one future left. We are running out of time.” She reaches out with her mind to share what her young companion can see.

“What of your declaration of being hands-off Jack? The plan itself stays within those guidelines. Well, mostly. Do you want to change your decision now?” She questions.

“I cannot let him die before he even has a chance at life, Amara. Plus, technically, it falls under fixing Chuck’s messes. He was the one who brought them into existence.” She smiles, picturing his serious face so much like his seraph father.

“I believe your dads would call that ‘splitting hairs’, would he not?” Fondness appears in her thoughts as she teases.

“The issue is, I’m not even sure he will last long enough to make it to the barn.” Knowing what is coming for someone she was once so connected to sobers her.

“Then I believe we will need to up our deadline, nephew. Are you sure this is what you want?”

“Yes. It’s the way it should have been had it not been for Lucifer. It is what my father had seen, and honestly, I miss them.” His sadness making its way through their connection.

“Then let’s finish this!”

121 so far, that number will increase within the next couple of months.

2. What's your total word count?

Holy shit, and that's not including the word count of unpublished works or the original novel I'm currently editing!

3. What fandoms do you write for?

Actively: Supernatural; Good Omens; Our Flag Means Death; Red, White, and Royal Blue, (MAYBE DEAD BOY DETECTIVES BACK OFF)

Past: South Park; High School Musical; Beauty and the Beast; Harry Potter; Blades of Glory; and Glee.

4. Top 5 fics by kudos:

Top 5 in general (this includes co-written fics):

In a Mirror, Darkly (written with @anyreiart) - 3,068

Red, White, and Royal Blue Balls - 2,365

Playing with Fire (written with @anyreiart) - 1,748

That Wasn’t Supposed to Fucking Happen! (written with @anyrei) - 1,387

The Heart of Ophelia (written with @anyreiart) - 1,357

Top 5 Solo Fics:

Red, White, and Royal Blue Balls - 2,365

La Rose Cachée - 1,146

Twenty After Four - 390

You Know I’m No Good - 326

And Walk Yourself to the Laundromat - 318

5. Do you respond to comments?

UGH, not as much as I should, and I used to be really good about responding to all comments, but presently my inbox on Ao3 has 4402 “unread” comments and I just… I can’t, it’s too overwhelming at this point with working two jobs. But I read and genuinely appreciate every single comment, even if I can’t reply to every single one!

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

Ah. That’s a toss up between Nothing’s Gonna Change My World and Through the Rift Series. In my opinion, the former, but I’m sure Any would beg to differ.

7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Oooh, fun! Ummmm. Most of them have happy endings (both literally and figuratively). I guess the “happiest” ending goes to the crack fic I wrote for Any’s birthday seven years ago. Crack in the Fourth Wall

8. Do you get hate on fics?

Oh, you betcha. The first time we got a shitty comment on a joint fic, Any said, “We’ve made it!” Thankfully, when a certain newsletter was dismantled, the anti-destiel harassment died down. I/We still get the occasional “concrit” comment from readers who think it’s an okay thing to give unsolicited writing advice, and I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: Constructive criticism cannot exist in already posted fanfiction world, you aren’t being constructive or critiquing, you’re literally filing a complaint, leaving a bad review. So either embrace the fact you’re a shitty 1-star Yelp review Karen, or stop leaving concrit.

9. Do you write smut?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

10. Craziest crossover?

I actually don’t write crossovers, but keep your eyes peeled! I recently participated in the CasDean Reverse Crossover Bang, and in a little over a week, I’ll be posting my Harry Potter crossover fic featuring art by the amazing @rezal-art!

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Not technically, or in a way that could be proven, but a very popular fic very much felt like a rip off of one of mine and Any’s fics, one that a well known author (a friend of the author of aforementioned rip off) made it a point to tell potential readers to not read the ending of because said author didn’t like the polyamory of it all.

Even funnier, that same author shortly after wrote their own poly fic. So, I guess personal preferences used to justify telling people to not read someone’s fic can sometimes beget a change of heart if it gets you more comments/readers.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

Yes! Any and I have had a couple of our fics translated into Chinese, Russian, and Spanish! And we are here for anyone who wishes to translate any of our fics, just let us know and send us a link, and we will include it in the notes!

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. At this point, I prefer to not write alone. Any needs to stop allowing it to happen.

14. All-time favorite ship?

Okay, so… technically, it’s Destiel. It’s the only pairing that survived the end of its series. Dean Winchester and Castiel are my two favorite archetypes of characters and their specific dynamic transcends canon bad endings and any type of universe.

15. What's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

I don’t have any! The last time I posted a WIP, it took me a couple years to finish, so I promised myself I would only post completed fics from now on.

16. What are your writing strengths?

Comedic scenarios and dialogue. I like the funnies and the speakings.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

DESCRIPTIONS. I fucking hate it, okay? Why can’t you all just know what’s in my damn head? I also have a toxic, codependent relationship with commas and sentence fragments.

18. Thoughts on dialogue in another language?

A little mixed. So, barring it being like… Latin, or a more archaic language that you use an unreliable online translator for or a language you speak, I believe for believable dialogue, you should have a friend or someone who can confirm/verify that the language is written correctly, otherwise, I vote you write, “they spoke in x language,” and interpret in the narrative. And no writing an accent in dialogue for characters where English is a second language phonetically! Like, authentic structure of a sentence, rhythm, or word choice is fine, but let’s not be offensive folks.

19. First fandom you ever wrote in?

Harry Potter over twenty years ago now. I’m an old.

20. Favorite fic you've written?

Oooh, that’s fun. Ummmm. For co-written, it’s a toss up between Five Dimensions, or Dean’s Crusade: A Dance with Self Discovery with @anyreiart or Heaven on htraE with @eyesofatragedy67 and for solo it’s a toss up between I Wish for This and La Rose Cachée

Summary While en route to an off world colony, Dean Winchester crashes on what he believes is a deserted planet. When he meets the planet’s only other human inhabitant, he’s never been so glad to be proved wrong.

A love story that’s out of this world. Excerpt As they walk to the lake Dean feels a growing sense of anticipation, and the air around them seems to be charged with electricity. He’s pretty sure that has nothing to do with the planet’s atmosphere, and everything to do with the sexual tension between him and Cas.

They fall into a similar pattern to that of the previous day, with Dean watching Cas as he removes his clothes before undressing himself. This time he doesn’t wait for a prompt from Cas though; his hands are already unbuttoning his jeans as Cas dives into the water.

Cas breaks through the surface and turns to watch him undress, and he slows his movements to give Cas more of a show. He slides his clothes sensually over his skin, giving Cas tantalising glimpses of what’s underneath before revealing it fully. It doesn’t matter that Cas has seen it before; a fact that becomes blindingly obvious from Cas’s reaction.

His gorgeous blue eyes are so dilated with desire they're almost black, and his hands - that were resting lightly on the bank by the lake - are gripping onto the ground so tightly his knuckles are turning white.

Dean decides to stop teasing Cas and quickly pulls his boxers off, then jumps into the lake.

Cas swims straight over to him, a wry expression on his face. “Were you struggling to take your clothes off?”

Dean grins and runs his tongue over his teeth. “Oh no, I was just taking my time. But if you thought I was struggling, why didn���t you offer to help?”

Cas drifts closer as he considers his answer. “Because I was enjoying the show too much.”

Dean moves into Cas's personal space, until he can brush their noses together. “Well then,” he murmurs softly.

“Well then,” Cas repeats, his voice barely more than a whisper.

Time seems to stand still then, as neither of them move for a few seconds. Their breaths are mingling, and Dean can feel his heart rate speeding up. The water’s having an effect on his senses again, and he swears he can feel Cas’s heartbeat too, even though they’re not touching.

They gaze into each other’s eyes silently waiting for something to happen… and then it does. They both lean in at the same time, brushing their lips together softly at first, before surging forward to turn their gentle kiss into a passionate push and pull between them.

Cas immediately takes control; pulling Dean closer until he can wrap his arms around him, his tongue seeking entrance between Dean’s lips. Dean parts them willingly, and he instantly loves the feel of Cas’s tongue exploring his mouth.
