    Summary

    Dean Winchester’s been camp manager of a science research station on the Alaskan tundra for thirteen years. Dean likes his job; fixing the camp trucks, troubleshooting the generators, keeping clueless undergrads and NSF bigwigs from walking into grizzly bears or getting lost in snowstorms — it’s all in a day’s work. It keeps him pretty busy, and this year his brother Sam's visiting too, so he's even busier. So it’s really not any of Dean’s business when some weirdo antisocial ornithologist sets up a tent a few miles away, a dark-haired blue-eyed guy who’s doing a “very long-term" study on birds or wings or something, and who never, ever takes off his big lumpy backpack. But then the new guy starts dropping by camp for coffee and... well, he’s not officially part of camp; he's not Dean’s responsibility; he’s really not Dean’s problem at all, but when a strange blizzard comes sweeping in, Dean gets worried and goes to check. Thing is, Dean's spent years in the sweeping vistas of the Arctic. He knows all about the midnight sun and the northern lights, the ice caves and avalanches, the rough-and-ready Haul Road truckers and the even rougher-and-readier wild animals. But even so, what he finds is much more than he bargained for.

    Summary

    But the thing is, as he gets closer, he has to blink his eyes to make sure he’s seeing things right. Because that’s definitely Jimmy’s body slumped over against the trunk of one of the apple trees, but floating above him is- well, it’s a floating light, a sphere with a one-foot diameter, just hanging out at Dean’s chest level. Dean approaches it carefully with a furrowed brow and half-raised hackles.

    “Cas?” Dean prompts slowly. “Is that-”

    And the orb is glowing out sweet and white like it could easily be used to keep away the dark in a child’s nursery. It’s so welcoming. Like Dean could just reach out, out, and catch that gentleness in his hands without any sort of consequence.

    “Hello, Dean,” the orb hums.

    or the one where cas gets expelled from his vessel and he isn't as much of a dude as dean thought he was

    Summary

    MK began to wash the shampoo out of Red Son’s hair, using one hand to pour water out of the basin and the other to block the soap from slipping down into his eyes. It was a small act, but one that showed a careful attention to detail that MK rarely showed to anything at all. It was the sort of sweet gesture that told Red Son he was cared for by MK, that he was loved.

    “Oh.” He whispered. “I’m hallucinating you.”

    (Or, MK takes care of a very sick Red Son and tries to convince him that he’s not a hallucination. Canon compliant up to Season 3)

    Summary

    Centuries ago, Red Son and Sun Xiaotian were killed. One to the fear of the Samadhi Fire, another to a mistake of trust.

    But even though the Brotherhood now rules the Celestial Realm, Shadowpeach and IronBull still struggle to accept their painful pasts - and the children they lost.

    A task that will get much harder when two servants of the Lady Bone Demon seem painfully familiar...

    AKA

    Red Son and MK were both killed as infants, but then resurrected and raised (abused) as the chosen heirs of Lady Bone Demon.

    Even when their parents learn their true identities, rejoining their families after all the lies and trauma they've endured (along with LBD’s ongoing plans for them) isn't so easy a feat...

    🎉 FEATURING:

    -Severely Traumatized MK 😭

    -Very Co-Dependent/Protective Red 🔥

    -Shadowpeach STILL Needing Therapy... 🌙 ☀️

    -IronBull being Feral Parents for the WIN 🏆

    -Brotherhood being a Very Supportive Family 🥰

    -Mei being a Chaotic Hacker/Adopted Child of Azure and Peng 🐉

    -LBD having SO MANY evil plans ☠️
