Summary
The stars had always held a fascination for Dean - many times in their youth, Dean would take his brother Sammy out to a place far removed from the lights of civilization, and they would spend hours staring up at them. When Sam left for Stanford, Dean worked as a mechanic in their foster dad Bobby's garage to help pay for his education. But now, with Sammy close to graduation and Bobby wanting to retire and turn the shop over to him, Dean finds himself attending community college at the ripe old age of twenty-eight. And as part of his business degree, he gets to study the stars he's always loved looking at.
Castiel is a Navy man in a long line of Navy men, serving as a Gunner's Mate in his ship's armory. He's approaching the end of his six-year enlistment and while he's good at his job, he has no desire to make a career of it like his father and siblings have - but has no idea what else to do with his life. What he DOES have are college tuition benefits, so takes an Astronomy course at a local community college on his way to figuring out his destiny.
What neither of them were expecting to find was each other.

“It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on…”[If you read this anywhere but Ao3, you've been duped! Had! Swindled! This beast is free on Ao3. Also fuck AI]

[podfic] worms on a string by Flowerparrish Pods (Flowerparrish) for nickelkeep

Summary
[Audio Length: 15:55]
Eliot knows he’s in for it the second he sees the rainbow-colored packages, so when Parker starts hiding worms-on-a-string in all conceivable (and some not-so-conceivable) places, he can’t say he didn’t know what was coming.
The “LOVE <3” notes are a surprise, though.
Filled for the Tumblr prompt: “Why do you need five hundred worms-on-a-string?”

Summary
Castiel Novak and Dean Winchester have virtually nothing in common: they’re both from different countries (Cas would argue that Canada and the US aren’t that different but Dean begs to differ), they come from wildly different types of families, and where Castiel excelled at school Dean failed. When it comes to their social skills they’re also diametrically opposed: Dean is outgoing, funny and easy-going; Castiel is more of an introvert who likes books and still has to see any Star Wars movie.
In real life though, Castiel Novak and Dean Winchester are both professional soccer players with the same position in concurrent teams.
It would be complicated enough as it is, but Dean and Cas have also been a couple for several years, hiding their relationship from the public and homophobia in the world of soccer while living in Europe away from their families.
Can they make it through another season without cracking?

Summary
Because Meg is a demon, she only uses TikTok for stupid memes, so it's her fault that they end up playing some TikTok game where they all point at one another in turn while some stupid, synthy dance-house song plays in the background and whoever is pointed at when “the boom comes” has to call their crush and confess their feelings.
