“The connection seems to be quite good tonight, doesn’t it,” (click for better quality)
I’m so happy the lovely tiamatv allowed me to draw this fanart for her fic! I adore It’s The End of the World (As We Know It) and highly recommend you go read it immediately. I think about it at least once a week and am astonished at how underrated it is in the fandom. So go go go and let’s scream about it together! Bonus point if you see what I did with the wave in the background.
(Tag list in the comments-tell me if you want to be added/removed)
Special thanks to @castielsprostate and @denimshortsdean for their advice on this!

You know what? I truly, totally lucked out with my @deancasreversebang collabs this year! Two fantastic partners and two very delightful stories <3
From an artistic POV, one was more of a "faces & expressions" practice for me, while this one was definitely an anatomy challenge. Or an excuse to draw some angel cake? ... xD Anyway, here's my initial "Hockey Players gone Figure Skating" prompt:
I was SO excited when the amazing tiamatv claimed my art!! We already worked together once before and her way of storytelling made me so very happy, giddy and emotional <3
Tia put a ton of research and heart into writing my prompt, and I ended up learning much more about hockey and figure skating than I anticipated when I said, "I have no clue about hockey OR figure skating so don't worry about it, I'd just love an emotional journey!" - Tia managed to do it all, and with an insane word count for the short time she had on top. So the least I could do was provide one more "anatomy practice" :D
I'm actually a bit salty that this month has been so busy that I couldn't draw one more art piece - the story certainly would've deserved it. Well, maybe it'll call me back later :)
Thank you dear Tia for claiming my art and for the very emotional journey, thank you dear DCRB mods; and once Tia has pressed the 'release' button, please go read OPEN SKATE !

[ID: I absolutely love this fic because I actually sleep with a weighted blanket and when my kids are sick, they love their own. I even have one in the car. It’s light but enough to feel it.
This is just so fluffy and romantic all thanks to our favorite redhead introducing weighted blankets which helps so much. It’s been shown to even help babies but blankets aren’t great for them.
Anyway, they’re so cute and that scene where Dean opens his eyes all slow and gentle with “hey”, just broke me. My husband and I do that periodically and it just means more snuggles and sleep. lol.
Poor Castiel thinking he couldn’t have Dean which I understand since Dean has said so much he is straight or implied it rather often. Ugh.
This was done so well. Thank you both!
Followed by 27 red hearts emojis and one lip 😘 emoji]

Gauged
Author: tiamatv Artist: leafzelindor (@leafzelindor)
Rating: Explicit
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Featured characters: Castiel, Claire Novak, Dean Winchester, Emma (Slice Girls)
Featured relationships: Dean/Castiel, minor Kaia/Claire, past Castiel/Amelia, past Dean/Lydia
Length: 29,157 words
Tags: AU - Modern Setting, Tattoo Artist Castiel, Castiel is Claire's Parent, Single Parent Castiel, Single Parent Dean Winchester, Dean is Emma's Parent, Meet-Cute, Fluff and Smut
Summary: The girl waves at Castiel, her bangles tinkling cheerfully. “Did you really let Claire get her eyebrow pierced?”
Castiel blinks and glances at his daughter. He’d assume that would be obvious, since she's still wearing her current favorite—a yellow-gold sixteen-gauge curved bar, with tiny cone-shaped spikes on either end. “Yes?” he finally answers. What a lot of fuss about a tiny piercing.
“Well, so what if she wanted a tattoo?” Emma presses. “Like. Just a little one. You wouldn’t have her sneak around and go to some scratcher, would you? You’d take her yourself and stuff. Since you know people in the industry. That'd be the right thing to do, yeah?”
Castiel’s eyebrows rise. Claire smiles, smug and pleased with herself.
“Um. That’s… I don’t…” he flounders.
“What the hell. Kiddo, I told you ‘no,’ so now you’re tryin’ to get your friends’ parents to tell you 'Yes?'” a warm, deep voice growls over Castiel’s shoulder. “What’s the matter with you?”
(In which tattoo artist Castiel meets the man of his dreams at his teenage daughter's school night.)

Variance
Author: Tiamatv Artist: Sketcheun (@sketcheun) No Major Archive Warnings Tags: Alternate Universe - Creatures and Monsters; Monsters Are Known, Lawyer Castiel, Werecat Dean, Baker Dean, Misunderstandings, Contracts, Self-Worth Issues, Alternate Werecreature Lore, Sweet Dean Winchester
Summary: Castiel might work with kitsune, demons, fae and incubi, but he’s content to be just what he is: reliable, responsible, and wholly human (well, with a few paltry drops of angel blood, or so his workplace pre-screening informed him). Some might say he’s boring.
(Everyone says he’s boring.)
Saying “Yes” when the cute bakery owner asks him out on a date—for no apparent reason other than that Castiel is there—isn’t reliable or responsible. It’s impulsive.
Letting the cute bakery owner seduce Castiel in the back seat of his ’67Chevy Impala is definitely impulsive.
Preview: The next morning, Castiel’s still so dazed that he almost misses Amy’s cheerful greeting of “Hi, Mr. Novak!” from the firm’s lobby reception desk. In fact, he almost forgets to greet her, and only the awareness that he should, that there’s something that he’s missed in his routine, jars his attention from the memory of Dean’s warmth, the way he guided Castiel back to his car with a hand on the small of Castiel’s back.
“Gathering nixies?” Amy asks when he pauses in his stride across the lobby, and he realizes from the bemusement in her expression that she must have called his name more than once.
“Don’t even joke about that,” Castiel warns. “You know that—”
“I know, I know,” she giggles. “I’m sorry. I couldn’t help it! The fact that one of your clients cursed his wife with nixies and then tried to claim that the cost of paying the summoner should be included as part of their settlement…”
Yes, there’s a reason why Castiel so rarely handles divorce cases anymore. “Don’t remind me,” he sighs. “How's Jacob?"
One of Amy’s three tails swishes proudly behind her, her smile back at him wide and showing only a hint of canine, even with as broad as her grin is. Amy’s very good at keeping the sharpness of her teeth softened behind her lips. "He's good! Hardly ever gets stuck in his little fox form anymore. Not like that day in court when you were representing us, huh?" she laughs.
The resilience of parents never fails to amaze him. Because frankly, on that day, Castiel was so stressed that he almost wished he had the ability to escape into another form while under stress.
Well, no, that’s not true at all. If Castiel had been born hengeyoukai, like Amy and Jacob Pond, he wouldn’t be himself, and if he’d been infected by lycovirus, he couldn’t be a lawyer.
(When he does occasionally misplace his tongue, he certainly has no excuse as cute as ‘I can’t talk because I just involuntarily turned into a small, nonverbal fox.’ He can just imagine what Judge Monroe would have to say about that.)
POSTING BETWEEN APRIL 23rd AND MAY 6th, 2023!

*ADDITONAL ARTWORK BELOW THE CUT FOR SPOILER REASONS*
"Mutualism"
This is my art masterpost for this year's @dadstielminibang brought to you by our fantastic mods @hawkland, @haus-seeblick & @tsujiharu! I was lucky enough to claim one of the most amazing concepts a.k.a. an artist's wet (ha!) dream by the super talented tiamatv: Merman!Dean and Cecaelia!Cas! 😍
TIA, WE DID IT! or should I say, we're FINished? 😏😂 (Many more fishy puns and ocean lingo can be found in the fic itself - and let me just say, I never thought it was possible to execute this SO flawlessly. Tia's knowledge of everything undersea literally blew me away and makes for such a witty and hilarious reading experience, all while keeping our boys perfectly in character. I salute you, my friend! 🥰)
I had such a great time getting to know Tia, making her write ocean smut xD and figuring out a) the look of the fishy boys and b) my very first mini animation. Unfortunately I can only post the gif in low quality on Tumblr, but you'll find a better looking one in the fic ☺️
There's also an additional last minute artwork that you'll find below the cut. It's a tiny spoiler for the last chapter, so proceed at your own risk!
Have fun reading "Mutualism" here 🧜🏻♂️🐙

Destiel fic recs
Another round of brainrot. I hope they never fix what's wrong with me.
Beggars Would Ride by Tiamatv (Explicit, 118k)
You had me at Aladdin AU. When Dean Winchester is caught stealing, he's given one chance for freedom. Go into the Cave of Wonders, grab the amulet, and get out. Things don't go as planned. Now he's got a moody ancient genie to contend with. But maybe he can use up two of his wishes and then grant the genie his wish: to be free. What could go wrong?
This fic is an absolutely delight. I laughed so hard, especially at the fun ways Tiamatv played with the SPN canon and the Disney movies. But beyond the humor is some really fantastic world building and a beautiful story about finding your way when you feel trapped by life.
Genie Cas is very cute and grumpy and sassy, and it's fun to watch him start to care. And Dean has so much heart it will make you ache. Sam and Jess are disgustingly cute but both are also whip smart and fun. And Jo (Jess’ sister in this) is the knife girl of my dreams.
This one is hard to put down.
Tourbillon Dreams by kayliemalinza @kayliemalinza (Mature, 40k)
Dean uses Bobby's life insurance proceeds to buy a hoarders house stuffed to the brim with cursed and haunted objects. But when he finds a clock that also happens to be an angel, things take an unexpected turn.
It sounds cracky and there is some delightful humor, but this fic packs a beautiful emotional punch. Dean is in his peak caretaking, competency mode and Clockstiel is adorable and entranced with Dean in a way that is just immensely readable.
There is something starkly gorgeous about the way Dean and Cas are physically so different and yet they find each other in meaningful and beautiful ways.
Love Is a Meat Loaf Song by followyourenergy @followyourenergy (Explicit, 68k)
A reimagining of canon where Dean is never saved and becomes a demon. He's bored waiting for the apocalypse when he happens upon a certain blue eyed seraph and they decide to work together.
This fic has all the delightful sassiness you expect of Demon!Dean and especially when he spends time with his frenemy, Meg. It also has just absolutely amazing angel lore and a deep dive into Cas and his trauma. All of this is wrapped up in a soft love story about two beings finding each other and seeing each other and breaking down each other's walls.
It's the entire package of funny, sincere and romantic.
Where there is Darkness by quiettewandering @wanderingcas (Explicit, 91k)
I may have popped this on at some point when it was a WIP but I have to renew my recommendation if so. Dean and Sam are lighthouse keepers, but Dean keeps driving off the third member of their team until Cas shows up. But will they be able to overcome their past to carve out happiness?
This Dean and Cas are so delicious. I am deeply fond of them both. They are fighting against so much baggage and yet they find in each other something so special. Sammy is also perfectly oblivious in the best way. It's hard to explain what makes this fic special except that it is so engrossing, you will be slamming next chapter
Valley of God by ValleyDean @valleydean (Mature, 145k)
I know. I KNOW. The MCD tag is daunting in a fic like this but I promise that while it is accurate, then ending is softer than you think and it's really the way it should end.
So there are a few things about this fic that make it absolutely delicious. First, it really delves into Cas’ trauma in a really gorgeous way. We don’t have enough fics that look at his angel trauma (we can't for me tbh) and this one uses a religious cult situation to delve into it. Second, Dean and Cas in this fic are just so messy and delightful. Dean wants to believe that Cas is good so badly. Cas wants to protect Dean the same way. It's crunchy. Finally, the atmosphere is amazing. It's creepy. It gets under your skin.
Is it dark? Absolutely. But it's also amazing.
The Darkest Sunshine by StarlightOfFandoms @starlightoffandoms (Explicit, 35k)
If murder husbands is your thing, this one is a delight of a fic. Dean Winchester is the Righteous Man serial killer, a notorious murderer who goes after monsters (in human form). People who are guilty of abhorrent crimes. But when he goes after Cas, a professor believed to have murdered several students, he discovers an innocent man being framed. Together with Cas and his team, Dean decides to find the real killer. He just has to pretend to be Cas’ boyfriend until they succeed.
The fake dating trope in a murder husbands fic was a total delight. So was the fact that Dean doesn't work alone and has a full support system to go after the worst of the worst. It's an intriguing concept done really well. Dean in this fic is an interesting blend of sociopathic tendencies, a strong sense of justice, and a willingness to do anything for those he is loyal to. Cas is intrigued by Dean and accepts him as he is. It's a really great combination.
A Weed In Any Other Place by VioletHaze @scones-and-texting-and-murder (Explicit, 63k)
On the other end of the spectrum is this fluffy rom com. There is some angst, but most of it is soft, sweet falling in love along with supportive friends and family.
Cas is a writer. Well, Cas had a book published and now he's desperately trying to write his second while convincing himself the first was probably just a fluke. Writers block is a bitch. That is until his car breaks down and he ends up at a little shop called Winchester and Son. By some weird trick of fate, it's exactly what he needs. He has the most productive day in years sitting in their waiting room. So he comes back, and keeps coming back. The extremely cute mechanic with green eyes doesn't hurt.
Cas is a disaster at social situations in a relatable way. Dean is struggling to put away some bad lessons from his dad so that he can find what he wants instead of what his father pushed on him. Both have a lovely support system. Charlie, in particular, makes me deeply fond in this fic.
i like your shoelaces (thanks! i stole them from the president) by you-cant-spell-subtext-without (ayreisha) @you-cant-spell-subtext-without (Explicit, WIP, 33k so far)
My lovely Tumblr wife is back at it, writing the most delightfully chaotic fic based on Misha's prompt awhile back for President Cas and Fast Food Janitorial Staff Dean Winchester. It's a Cinderella story and in equal parts hilarious and adorable. Also it is a Dean-saster/Cas-tastrophe pairing which is always fun plus there's a 2 person love triangle situation.
Dean's stuck in a miserable job with his only escape being his love of How I Met Your Mother and the Tumblr blog he devotes to the fandom. But when a handsome man walks in one night after hours, things heat up. Too bad the man in question is actually the President.
It's a romp and a love letter to fandom.

Mutualism
Author: tiamatv Artist: xfancyfranart (@xfancyfranart) Rating: Explicit Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Featured characters: Dean, Castiel, Sam, Bobby, Rufus, Jack Featured relationships: Dean/Castiel, past Dean/Lisa, minor Bobby/Rufus Length: 30,000 words Tags: Alternate Universe - Underwater Creatures; Merman Dean; Cecaelia Castiel; Cultural Differences; Meet-Cute; Neighbors; They're Legs, Not Tentacles; Alternate Biology
Summary: Dean's a mer-dude (shut up, Sam, that's totally a word) who lives on the edge of the reef, far away from the mer-colony. He's not lonely: the hunting's better, he doesn't end up confused by anyone else's echolocating song, and he's got the cutest little clutch of clownfish as watch-fish for his ledge.
And he's got Cas. Who might not be a mer, but he's something even better: a cecaelia, with eight clever octopus legs and an obsession with making sure that Dean gets to try all the treats the reef can offer.
(Dean pays him back by teaching him to kiss. Cas never fails to collect.)
Bobby claims that cecaelias don't mate. That they don't bond. That they don't form families. But that old sand dollar can mind his own business: Cas and Dean are just having a good time and clouding up the water together, after all.
Right?

Cretaceous
Cretaceous by tiamatv Rating: Mature Word Count: 30k
Dean chuckles and pauses in his walk to lean against the edge of the walkway, stretching out his bad thigh. "Well, aren't you the brave little nugget," he tells her. She tips her head at him. Most of the others have brown feathers scattered with a little cream or black, some mottled patterns showing through from the skin underneath. In the misty, dewy early morning, this one looks like she might have a hint of green in her plumage. She opens her mouth soundlessly in his direction, long tail flicking from side to side and making snake-trail patterns in the sand of the enclosure. Even from up here, Dean can see the tiny curved daggers of her teeth. Her tongue is purple, which… okay, that is some weird shit. "Uh huh," he says, grinning. "I get it, you're a scary murder chicken. I'm real lucky I'm all the way up here. Mmhmm." "Dean," a voice says from behind him, breaking the stillness of the morning. "Are you conversing with a velociraptor?" (A Jurassic Park AU)
Yup, that’s right, I’m back with another Jurassic Park AU. If it’s got dinosaurs and Dean and Cas? I’m in. Maybe you think it can’t be possible to get a lot of different ideas going here, but once again, this fandom defies the odds.
This story stands out because it is set before the events that happen in the movie ever occur, with Cas as one of the main scientists figuring out how to bring back dinosaurs, and Dean the guy brought in to keep things running as smooth as possible as the park gets on its feet.
He isn’t expecting to see the blue-eyed, dark-haired guy who he thought was named Steve… when they hooked up for a perfect one-night stand many years ago. This story is really cute, and interestingly enough, no one gets eaten by any dinosaurs, even though there are plenty of them in the story. Dean and Cas are both really well written, and all the side characters are perfectly in character too. Don’t miss this one!

Handfasted
Author: tiamatv
Artist: anyrei
Primary Ship: Dean/Castiel
Other Ships: N/A
Length: 28,000
Warnings: N/A
Tags: AU- Royalty, Arranged Marriage, Temporary Marriage, Prince Castiel, Prince Dean Winchester, Strangers to Lovers, Internalized Homophobia, Cultural Differences, Misunderstandings, Rope Bondage, Pining
Posting Date: November 9, 2024
Summary Dean Winchester never wanted to wear a crown. He had no idea that he even could. It wasn't until the Campbell royals all got themselves assassinated by demons that he and Sam found out that King Samuel was actually their grandfather, and well, shit.
But Dean was a soldier before he was anything else. So maybe that's why he'll do anything to stop this awful demon war--anything. Even try to make an alliance with the angels.
They think they're gonna scare him off by telling him he's gotta be magically married--okay, okay, handfasted, but call it what it is--to some snooty noble angel for a whole year? They think Dean's gonna back out because the angels want him to be handfasted not to a proper princess, oh no, but to a prince?
Bring it on. Excerpt Gods and goddesses. Dean hasn’t even kissed the guy. Is he supposed to? The thought makes his whole face tingle–the thought of pressing his lips to that rich, pink mouth–but… that’s not what this is about, is it? Right?
“Look, I know you're not… I know this wasn't your choice,” Dean says, low. “Mine either, not really, I just… Lemme do this, okay? Pretty sure I can make it feel good for you.”
Shit, Dean's babbling, but what the fuck else is he supposed to do? He’s been thinking about how to fulfill the handfasting magic without everything going wrong for a while. Too long.
‘Consummation,’ right? Seed going into… somewhere? Yeah.
Castiel doesn't stop him, his hands falling back to hang loose by his side when Dean carefully untangles their fingers and then undoes the buttons of the placket of Castiel’s snowy white, coarse linen breeches, one by one. He does say something in that low gravel of his language, but none of them are the few words of Enochian that Dean understands. Dean just hopes he's not commenting on how Dean's hands are shaking.
His little sigh against the side of Dean's face as Dean starts nudging his breeches downwards with his fingertips, a warm, sweet, shaky puff on Dean’s cheek, sure doesn't sound like he's mad about it, though. His halo is glowing soft and bright, brighter than the lantern lit in the corner of the room, not that angry lightning flash that Dean’s gotten way too used to in the past week.
That does make Dean feel better. A little.
“You doing okay?” Dean says, pulling back and running a hand over the jut and arch of Castiel's hip, under the linen. And then doing it again, ‘cause. Huh. It's weird to feel those hard, firm planes, the jut of bone, rather than softness and curves. Weird, but not bad. He’s not wearing smallclothes under the stupid sacred pants–neither is Dean–but unlike Dean, Castiel hasn’t got any hair on his legs or his belly to catch on the rough woven cloth.
Cas nods and voices a low Enochian affirmative that Dean recognizes. Well, at least there's that.
But the quizzical look on Cas's face, the lilt of his voice, says volumes when Dean carefully pushes him down to sitting on the bed and then gets slowly down on his knees on the rug, shuffling his way forward between those spread thighs–shit, it's gotta be obvious to him by now what Dean's up to, right?
Because sure, Dean was in the Campbell army a long time, he’s heard some things about the kind of activities that men can do with other men… but like hell is Dean going to be sticking his bits into someone who can barely understand what he's saying.
He's not thinking about how hard–no, nope, difficult, difficult–it was to shimmy those breeches down and off Castiel's thighs, because well, fuck, the dude might be a prince of the angels, but he’s juicy like a game chicken, and–
Nope, nope, nope.
So here Dean is, down on his knees, staring face-level at another guy's floppy dick, surrounded by the same thick, dark curls that Castiel has on his head but nowhere else on his body, smelling of incense and linen and… something musky and heavy. Not sweat, something darker than that, sharper, and…
And Dean’s mouth is fucking watering. It's watering. And he can feel the heat on his cheeks. On his neck. Spreading into the line of this stupid, scrubby, itchy linen tunic. Twitching in his breeches.
Gods of sea and stars. Is this the handfasting magic? What if it is?
But what if it isn’t?

This is just mostly a handy little post for me but I asked people to rec me some destiel AU best friends to lovers fics and this is what I got:
Recs from ltleflrt:
okay, cupid. by orange_crushed On Air by wincechesters Just Turn Around and Go by @porcupine-girl Version 2.0 by Elizabeth1985 aka @cocklesheadboop Ignore the Butterflies: Best Friend Advice from Dean Winchester by impatient14 A Match Made (and Misunderstood) by surlybobbies More Views. More Money. by herbivoredinosaur Remember When by VioletHaze aka @scones-and-texting-and-murder When In Vegas by Dmsilvis & TobytheWise
Recs from doctorprofessorsong
One of my favorite fics of all time is Evangelist by @valleydean. It's really enemies to friends to lovers but the enemies part becomes friends pretty quickly because they are deeply obsessed with each other. One of the classics if you haven't read it is To Build a Home. Childhood friends who broke up and find themselves back in each other’s life. It is very angsty but they have a lifelong friendship so you get a lot of childhood and teenage friendship moments. If I may self recommend, I just wrote Can't Fight the Moonlight in which they are in this post canon partnership and both want to add sexual intimacy but the partnership is soft so you get some really fun platonic intimacy. It's not AU, obviously, but may have something of what you want. Seraph by @dothraki-shieldmaiden is a superhero au where they are friends and roommates to lovers. It has great world building. More than Kisses by @friendofcarlotta is a friends to lovers epistolary romance. Dean and Cas are pen pals and they share an absolutely gorgeous emotional intimacy. Tiamatv has a few that fit the bill. I'm gonna mention Marchen because I love the world built in that one. Dean Winchester is a prince locked in a tower. Feel free to also skim my fic recs. @riversrecs
Recs by castiellesbian:
tiamatv's "It's the End of the World (As We Know It)" is a friends to enemies to lovers if that counts? They were childhood best friends in that one "A Midterms Night's Dream" by Englandwouldfall is an au where they're roommates (oh my god they were rommates). "In Some Sacred Place" by schmerzerling is a good one where they're friends throughout most of the fic, but it's kind of depressing overall

Art Masterpost for @cdrcrossoverbang.
If you like the Altered Carbon, you're gonna love this.
@tiamatv and I are very disorganised partners, but all the best shit comes outta chaos... right?
Everyone tells Dean that he's a hero of the Protectorate. He's enough of one that when his sleeve--his body--died in the final battle of the Envoy Wars, General Michael himself found Dean's stack and brought him home. He got his soldier ass slotted into a brand spankin' new sleeve, cloned fresh just for him. (And the faces Sam makes when Dean says he's been 'rehymenated?' Fuckin' amazing.)
Life is--should be--good.
Except Dean can't remember most of the war that got him his commendation for valor. He sees butterflies that aren't there. He dreams of a woman with serious blue eyes and stern, beautiful mouth, standing in a field surrounded by lifeless sleeves, all with Dean's face.
It's fine, though. It's fine.
Except one Envoy survived the wars, and they're running around in the body of a NeoChristian named James Novak. Well, Dean and his squad know just how to handle Envoys and sleeve thieves. He's got this.
Right?

Variance
TITLE: Variance AUTHOR: Tiamatv ARTIST: Sketcheun (@crispr-cas)
LINK TO FIC || LINK TO ART
PAIRINGS: Castiel/Dean Winchester MAJOR ARCHIVE WARNINGS: N/A TAGS: Alternate Universe - Creatures & Monsters; Lawyer Castiel; Baker Dean Winchester; Dating; Contracts; Misunderstandings; Self-Worth Issues; Strangers to Lovers; Fluff and Smut; Top/Bottom Versatile Castiel/Dean Winchester
SUMMARY: Castiel might work with kitsune, demons, fae and incubi, but he’s content to be just what he is: reliable, responsible, and wholly human (well, with a few paltry drops of angel blood, or so his workplace pre-screening informed him).
Some might say he’s boring. Saying “Yes” when the cute bakery owner asks him out on a date—for no apparent reason other than that Castiel is there—isn’t reliable or responsible. It’s impulsive.
Letting the cute bakery owner seduce Castiel in the back seat of his ’67 Chevy Impala is definitely impulsive.
