Summary
As a phlebotomist with the Red Cross, Castiel has donors, not patients, and given donation protocols spacing appointments out, it typically takes a year to call someone a regular. Castiel bonds with his coworkers instead, and he stays over with his best friend and godson almost as often as he goes home. There's little exciting in the day-to-day, but routine is no hardship.
A new part of that routine comes in the form of a talkative if nervous man named Dean, whose pulse races every time Castiel takes it. Dean often flushes and looks uncomfortable, although he covers it up with jokes, teasing, and a ready smile. It makes his consistent, fortnightly platelet donations all the more admirable, but for some reason, Dean only looks even more nervous whenever Castiel brings that up.

Summary
AU after the first X-Men movie. While traveling through Canada on Xavier's tip, Logan comes across a strange mutant caged in a freak show. He can get him out, but actually saving him will be a longer process, and may take an entire family of mutants. And they all might just insist on saving Logan along the way, too.
Features bigotry, multiple scenes of "spot the comics guest star", lots of road trips, and gratuitous amounts of Canada.

THIS.
This beauty of a fic, while specifically a Dean-focused character study, will emotionally wring you with feelings for all 3 of TFW in less than 10k words, a feat I will forever love this for.

An absolutely fantastic tale and delight to read!
This is absolutely worth a read, and multiple re-reads even (which I intend to do).

Bookmarker's Notes
A lovely, soft pre-Hobbit series A.R. where Thorin and Bilbo meet quite differently without the quest for Erebor to bring them together ('a severe misunderstanding' is a pretty accurate and hilarious description of how it goes down XD)
