Summary
Canon-divergent from 12.08
After Sam and Dean are arrested, Castiel is left alone and scrambling to find them. He knows they’re locked away in a government facility, and he’s still able to hear their prayers, but no matter how he tries Castiel can’t seem to track them. He chases leads and even attempts to hunt on his own, but Mary is AWOL, Crowley refuses to help, and Castiel’s options are running out.
Weeks pass, Castiel’s hope dwindles, and through it all Dean prays, keeping them connected. His voice is comforting, frustrating, and occasionally annoying, but in his solitude Castiel comes to cherish it. But then one day, without warning, Dean stops praying, and Castiel is forced to confront some uncomfortable truths about his feelings.

Summary
"Cas," Dean says, frowning down at his bare toes, "you, uh—you've been through a lot in the past twenty-four hours, okay? We don't have to talk about this. About any of it. I—"
"I'm saying that I want to try it again."
Dean snaps his head up. "You what now?"
"My solution," Cas says carefully, "is that instead of showing each other violence, we show each other... the opposite."
“The opposite,” Dean says. “Like…”
“Sex.”
Dean sucks in a breath. "Oh," he squeaks out.

Summary
Four months after the Croatoan virus wiped out most of the world's population, Dean's sole objective is to meet his brother at their agreed-upon rendezvous point in Idaho. But when he encounters a mysterious, blue-eyed man in a barn, Dean's plans begin to change. The end of the world is no time for romance, yet there's something about Cas he can't resist. The problem is, Cas has a secret—and it just might prove more deadly than the Croats.

Summary
“I think,” Cas grits out, “that the spell requires me to say the truth. I’ve been trying to suppress it with my grace, but it’s… not working.”
“Got it,” Dean says, nodding, because he can work with this. “Yeah. Sure. So give me some truths. Some stupid little ones.”
Cas narrows his eyes. “Such as?”
“Like, I dunno, what’s your favorite color?”
Cas’s face somehow goes stonier. “Green,” he ekes out.
Dean clears his throat. Blinks a few times. “Oh.”
________Or: when Dean and Cas investigate a group of high school students getting mysteriously ill, Cas gets hit with a truth spell.
