Monthly Dean/Cas recs. I delved into my memories somewhat for some of these.

1)
No Stranger In Your DreamsAuthor:
parenthetical Characters/Pairings: Dean/Castiel, Sam
Rating: PG-13
Spoilers: Up to the end of S4
Warnings: Some graphic depictions of violence
Summary: Dean and Castiel have been meeting each other in secret, in dreams. Something follows them one night -- something with teeth. And now Dean won't wake up...
My Notes: Creative idea and the plotting in this is amazing. One of my all time favorite Dean/Cas fics.
2)
How Castiel Got His Wings BackAuthor:
jenniferlupin Characters/Pairings: Dean/Castiel, Sam
Rating: PG-13
Spoilers: Up to the end of S4
Summary: The next time Dean sees Castiel after he promises Dean to hold off the archangels, he’s got a new name and a new life. This is the story of how it took both a demon and the power of love to bring Dean and Castiel back together again.
My Notes: Resonates with emotion throughout. Another one of my all time favs.
3)
In The Land of the Emotionally Repressed, Dean Winchester Is KingAuthor:
zoemathemata Characters/Pairings: Dean/Castiel, Sam
Rating: R
Spoilers: S4
Summary: Dean does his best to cheer Castiel when Cas is disheartened by recent events and is left blind.
My Notes: Dean cheering up a depressed Cas? Yes plz! Plus there is a parrot! And Harry Potter! And of course, pie! Also, FURIES.
4)
Peanut Butter-Pumpkin Wedding CakeAuthor:
sparseparsley Characters/Pairings: Dean/Castiel, Sam, Anna, and lots of other cameos
Rating: NC-17
Spoilers: None
Summary: Dean is a waiter in a strip club to put his kid brother through school. Castiel is dragged to the club as a part of his sister Anna's bachelorette party. Dean and Cas hit it off, but Dean thinks Cas is the one marrying Anna.
My Notes: Another one of the awesome AUs to come out of the AU Fusion challenge. Super adorable. A series of misunderstandings in romantic comedy fashion.
5)
The Ghosts In The MachineAuthor:
evalens Characters/Pairings: Dean/Castiel, Sam, Gabriel, Bobby
Rating: NC-17
Spoilers: Up to 5x10
Summary: Dean gets visited by ghosts of Christmas past, present, and future. Sort of.
My Notes: Technically a Christmas fic, but only in the sense of it being a take off the
A Christmas Carol. It's like the greatest hits of Dean/Cas. Plus Gabriel! So of course there is snark and banter!
