Summary
Castiel Novak's a writer who's waiting for his big break. His last book didn't sell, so now he's doing work for hire, ghostwriting the next in a series of ridiculous horror novels about two hot brothers who hunt monsters together. It’s pretty popular, and the fans are desperate for the next instalment — which is a problem, because the guy who usually writes them just up and vanished a couple of months ago. He left behind a signed contract and the outline for the next two stories, so the publisher’s been looking for someone else who could pick up where Chuck left off. And that's Cas.
So he heads to a cafe to get the words out ... and that's where he meets Dean, a smartass wannabe comedian who's working on his stand-up set. Cas is straight, obviously, but there's something about this guy that he's fascinated with. The two of them strike up a friendship ... and soon the world Cas is writing and the world he's living in begin to get mixed up.
Sometimes you're writing what you know without even realizing it ...

Summary
Dean Winchester lives two lives. To deal with the trauma of watching his mother perish in a house fire, Dean Winchester was signed up for experimental Djinn Dream Therapy (DDT) in which he was given a therapeutic serum that was supposed to help him heal through dreaming. Now in his late 20s, Dean is still a guinea pig. The perfect guinea pig and the world's most ideal patient.
In the dreams, he gets back everything he lost... and everything he could possibly want. The maker of DDT is preparing for something big and Dean is first on the list for the new therapy and it may just give him his dream life.
In theory, Castiel knows that DDT is supposed to be for healing from trauma but Cas has watched his best friend get deeper and deeper over the years. He wants to tear down the entire industry but one thing is holding him back. The way Dean looks at Cas and the barely there touches Dean has to yank himself back from right before and right after DDT has Cas feeling guilty because he gets a little more of Dean in those moments than he'll ever be able to have in the half life he lives.

Summary
“This isn’t how I was expecting my evening to go, huh?”
“No, I’m sure it wasn’t,” Cas replies.
Dean’s eyes drink him in. Dean doesn’t bother to hide it. “What are you doing here? Haven't seen you ‘round in a while.” The last of his words have a sarcastic blade to them in a way that they never would have before Hell, and he’s still getting used to the metallic tang in his mouth.
Cas’s eyes narrow. “I suppose I had a… hunch that you may be in need of company.”
or the one where s10 cas time travels back to give comfort to dean right after he was gripped tight and raised from perdition

Summary
Dean is a novice in the dom/sub world asked by his employer as a desperate last resort to be a sub for his recluse of a brother, Castiel. Castiel is a diagnosed OCD suffering from PTSD and agoraphobia, mysophobia, and dystychiphobia. Needless to say—he’s a mess who hasn’t stepped out of his home in literally seven years. The only times Gabriel can see traces of the way his brother used to be is when he feels in control—specifically when he has control over a sub. However, due to his idiosyncrasies and paranoia, keeping a sub around has been impossible. Enter Dean, who’s not a very traditional submissive, to try his hand at subbing for the hermit.
