This is an AU that begins during 4x16 'On the Head of a Pin' - opening dialogue is borrowed from that episode.

Getting to Yes
Art by chaosraven
Fic by rivkat
Sam/Castiel
Castiel is covetous of Sam, but thinks his feelings are purely possessive and asexual. He's an angel and therefore above all that earthly desire shenanigans (or so he assumes). Despite that, he wants Sam's fidelity which Sam would be okay with... if sex were part of the agreement. Sam suggests they experiment with what kind of sexy times Cas might be okay to compromise with. It turns out that Castiel is not as immune from those kinds of things as he originally thought. I'm not looking for any kind of d/s scene, but I would like Cas being toppy and Sam being pliant.

Not only did that idiot angel kill Meg, he also tore a hole in Purgatory, and since she doesn’t exactly have anything better to do at the moment, Meg decides to repair it. It’s a long trip across Purgatory, and when she arrives at the home stretch Meg is less than thrilled to find a goody-two-shoes angel on pretty much the same mission.



This layer of Purgatory is home to the souls of all the dead children who couldn’t get into Heaven, which says a little something about the kind of kids they are. To reach their final destination Meg and Anna must navigate an abandoned, booby-trapped amusement park designed to terrify them. Though a first they decide it’s every woman for herself, they soon realize they’ll need to work together to survive.

Family is supposed to mean something. To Gabriel’s family, it seems to mean war amongst his brothers and sisters. Unable to watch his family tear each other apart, Gabriel had fled to earth. There he had found his friend, Loki. Just when Gabriel had thought things might have been looking up for him, Loki was attacked and fatally wounded. His last request had been that Gabriel take his place amongst the Norse Pantheon. Suddenly, Gabriel had found himself as the new Loki, had six new children and people making offerings to him everywhere he looked. On the bright side, it provided one hell of a cover for him from his brothers that had been searching for him. The hardest part now though, would be explaining all of this to his mate, Sam Winchester.

This power was something Sam always had, something he’d honed over the years. It wasn’t even that bad, being able to see people’s future with a simple touch, but it certainly didn’t make relationships very easy. So paying for sex just to feel that connection with someone? It was kind of like Sam’s right. If only someone had warned him just how things would change after hooking up with Dean.

Crash

Fic by bunnymaccool
Jensen/Jared
AU - He doesn’t like to think back on the entire experience much. Not more than to, say, acknowledge that the one thing that irrevocably changed his life around for the better was the same thing that nearly killed his best friend in the entire world. It’s an impossible trade off. If that night had never happened, he would never have known the truth or have within his grasp this completely amazing love he’d only ever dreamt of finding. Really, though … he’s digressing … it doesn’t start here. It starts with an argument. And a rainstorm.

The Ghost
Art by ladytiferet
Fic by hunters_retreat
Jared/Jensen
Thirty years ago, humanity was changed. The magic they scoffed at as nothing more than fairy tales and children's illusions was real and the barrier that separated them from that and the world of the fae came crashing down. In the wake of that phenomena, new government agencies were created to deal with the problems of magic in the modern world. Humans relied on the men and women of the DMI to protect them from the abuses of magic. But when Agent Padalecki finds himself in the middle of a murder investigation with a civilian on his scene, he realizes it's not just any civilian. The intruder is the Ghost, a fae that even the high Seelie court fear. Faced with a murder investigation and a possible connection to a string of killings, Agent Padalecki must find a way to work with the Ghost to stop a killer before he can do the unthinkable; start a war between humanity and fae.

Jared/Jensen
Jensen is a brilliant if under-appreciated scientist. His lab is a little rundown but Jensen knows that he's close to a scientific breakthrough that's going to cement his place in history--if only he could spend a little less time drooling over his gorgeous (but straight) research partner and got a little more sleep.

Live to Cheer

High school. School spirit. Cheerleading means everything to Jensen Ackles, it's who he is. It doesn't mean anything to Jared Padalecki, not to begin with. Sometimes a simple little bet is all it takes to change everything.

Fool Hearted Man

Jensen/Jeff
Jeff was certain people really didn’t ‘fall in love’. He’d been there, done that and all it led to was hurt. Casual was definitely the way to go.

Jensen was just as sure that falling in love was the easy part, it was staying there that took some skill. He wanted nothing more than a chance to show Jeff just how capable the heart was.


The Long Seduction

Jared/Jensen, Jared/OFC, [SPOILER FOR THE STORY]
Jensen Ackles is the ruthless high-stakes litigator at the top of his game; Jared Padalecki, the ambitious but inexperienced lawyer personally recruited by Jensen; and Jeff Morgan, the billionaire businessman and target of a massive multi-million dollar lawsuit led by Jensen. All three stand to gain or lose more than their reputations in the cut-throat world of high-stakes litigation. But when you’re willing to do anything to win, nothing is clear cut and no one is squeaky clean. Loosely based on season one of the TV show Damages.

Jared/Jensen
Tartarus is not the first circus Jensen's worked, but it's certainly the creepiest. After months without work, Jensen's not really in the place to be picky, so he takes the contortionist job he's offered and rolls with it. The people aren't bad at least, and the ringleader, Jared, is as hot as he is mysterious. Jensen won't complain about a job that feeds him and gets him laid regularly, and it's not like curses are real, anyway.

When Jared met Jensen Ackles for the first time, he laughed off any ideas he had about Jensen's dancing. After all, what does a street dancer know about ballet? But when Jared's teacher tells him that his dancing is nothing special, Jared may just have to eat his words, and acknowledge that the street dancer may have been right.

Jensen is a big shot movie star, Jared a skateboarding champion. They met once, under less than stellar circumstances. Now Jensen needs Jared to teach him how to look passionate and not face plant while on a skateboard or strangle himself while holding a kite. Considering that Jared hates Jensen, this seems to be a fun mission right from the beginning. And Jensen's social awkwardness that Jared takes as typical diva behavior isn't really helping either.

Jared/Jensen, Danneel/Sophia
Jared thought he had the rest of his life planned out, he thought that college would be a smooth transition and he wouldn't have to deal with the drama of high school life anymore. What he didn't expect for his senior year was for his high school sweetheart, Jensen, to break up with him right before prom.

Now, bitter and looking for a new start, Jared and his best friend Chad, (who means well but is really just a douche) start college at Texas Tropes University with hopes for something better than what Jared left behind.

He was right, up until a chance encounter with a wounded runaway turned his quiet little life into a not-so-quiet little life that would need patience, trust, love and a little bit of ingenuity to keep it safe when the man's mysterious past caught up with them both.

Jared always thought he'd die a hero's death, in recompense for his mediocre life. Well, he doesn't. Far from it. But from that point on, things start looking up. Becoming a reaper is the best thing to ever happen to Jared, and getting paired with the surly and coffee-addicted Jensen? Totally awesome, even if Jensen has been doing the job for far too long. Yeah, an afterlife as a reaper is pretty sweet. There's just one thing- don't ever mention the "D" word.

Jared/Jensen
Jared acknowledges that the decision to keep his relationship with Jensen from straying into anything more than friendship was a bad one. So terrible, he refers to it in his head as the Worst Decision Ever. Supernatural is more important than their feelings for one another, at least that’s what Jared keeps telling himself whenever he and Jensen come to close to crossing the line. But circumstances begin to change on an otherwise ordinary day of filming. It begins with a game of hide-and-seek through an unusual maze and ends with Jared making an unexpected offer that leads him into a whole new world—literally—and shows him exactly what he’s been missing.
