Summary
Reliving one of his worst moments, Dean Winchester is trapped in a nightmare, one that feels very real. In this nightmare, Dean tries desperately to rewrite the ending, to fix what happened, but no matter how hard he tries, it ends the same way. The love of his life gone, taken, right in front of his eyes, leaving behind a heartbroken man, one who wished he had plucked up the courage to tell him how he felt. But, through the darkness in his dreams, a voice, a familiar voice, calls to him, pulling him from this nightmare. Maybe he had re-written the ending after all

Summary
A New God that doesn't answer to prayers. A dead fallen angel. A grieving ultimate killer. His brother trying to fix things. What happens once the narrative ends and you're left with both freedom and free will?
A story where Castiel is saved, of course, and the Winchesters find a new purpose in a world that doesn't need them every day. Where is God now?
(story still a WIP!)

Summary
After the Empty took Castiel, Dean pushed everything he felt inside a Very Secret, Very Closed Box in his head and swallowed the key. The Box had been intact and hermetic for two years in its corner of Dean’s mind, and because of that, Dean had been able to stay sane and focused. More or less.
But now, with Cas back, with every day they didn’t talk about what's between them, the Box is starting to leak.Castiel isn't complaining, far from it: He has a roof over his head, good shower pressure and food. He’s so grateful he’s afraid. Because he believed to have all those things once before, human and lost and confused, only to have the rug pulled under his feet.
And there’s the fact that, the last time he died, he carved his heart out for Dean to take, and the hunter hasn’t said anything about it.
Maybe that’s as good an answer as he’s going to get. -

After Chuck falls and Jack becomes the new God, Jack makes a deal with the Empty to open Heaven’s gates and free all of the fallen angels, including Castiel. Castiel then faces a difficult decision: stay in Heaven as a restored angel with his wings, or return to Earth as a human man with a soul.
After making his choice, Castiel steps into his new life with real purpose. He chooses Dean and returns to Earth as a man, his Grace replaced by a human soul. Together, they face the everyday ups and downs of mortal life. This is a look at the world after Chuck - a glimpse into what life might have been like for Castiel and the Winchesters after gaining true free will.

Summary
He shouldn't have been surprised that what he actually wanted paled in comparison to the entertainment he could offer to some ancient force who saw humans more as dollar store toys than things with agency. He shouldn't have been surprised when the broiling-black cleft of the Empty split open into a plain stone staircase leading upwards into the unknown, and he shouldn't have been surprised when the Empty split the face that didn't belong to It into a smile that didn't fit It.
"Don't look back, not even for a second," It said, "and you can have him back."

Or, in a world where the Empty is gay superhell, Cas gets to be Eurydice. Inspired by and title from "Talk" by Hozier. -

Summary
Dean wondered whether he would get bored with Heaven eventually. The endless cycle of family cookouts, roadhouse game nights and long drives into the sunset was easy happiness he was more than willing to settle for. And sure, Heaven wasn’t perfect, but there was peace; and after all the apocalypses prevented, Dean was just tired.
But then the real Jack returns and Dean's hard-earned peace is swept away by the chaos of a new war against the false god. Midst the fighting across all planes of existence, from Heaven to Hell, all Winchesters need to learn hard lessons about the family they want, and the family they need.
All the while Dean desperately tries to get his truth out, because he is pretty sure the silence is killing him all over again.Series

Summary
In the end, the Empty steals only his soul, while the rest of Castiel is thrown through some unimportant crack in the universe. Now stuck in an alternate 2003, he stares at Dean who isn't his Dean, and finds it within himself to accept that he's human, and because he's human, that he has the chance to be brave.
or: Cas takes something he thought he could never have, even if it's for one night only
