    Summary

    At thirty-six, Dean Winchester is the Captain of Lawrence Fire Station 24 — respected, decorated, and trusted with lives when everything is burning down. He runs his crew with precision, authority, and gallows humor, the kind of man you want beside you when the smoke gets thick. He has the house. The career. The scars to prove he earned both.

    What he doesn’t have is anyone waiting for him when the sirens go quiet.

    Dean tries to explain why Castiel doesn’t fit into his life — too quiet, too gentle, too different from anyone he’s ever dated.

    Sam, who’s heard every version of this argument before, gently points out the truth Dean keeps avoiding: maybe the problem isn’t Castiel’s differences — maybe it’s that Dean has spent his whole life choosing what’s safe instead of what he actually needs.

    And maybe what he needs is someone entirely unfamiliar… even if that scares him.

    **

    "You've been dating the same type of person your whole life, and where has it gotten you? Alone in a house that's too quiet. You always go for what's easy, what's familiar. But maybe what you need isn't easy. Maybe what you need is different. Maybe what you need is a nerdy beekeeper who talks about feelings."

    Summary

    Castiel Allen is a social failure. But his grandmama, Lady Celeste Novak, is determined to establish him in society so that he can embark on a political career. After a spectacular disaster at the event of the Season, Lady Celeste decides to take charge.

    “I know that you have many good qualities Castiel, but we are both aware that those good qualities seldom show themselves in company...”

    Castiel is silent now, one scone still remaining untouched on his plate, his tea growing cold.

    Celeste sits up a little straighter and smooths the silk skirts over her knees. “And so I have made a decision.” She pins Castiel with her gaze, like a collector might pin a butterfly. “I will select an omega bride for you.”

    His gaze whips up from the hearthrug and his mouth falls open.

    “You will marry,” she says, her jaw set firmly against any protestations. “ And then you can finally take up your place as my heir.”

    Summary

    Dean Winchester travels across the Old West with his brother, bounty hunting for money. He’s learned not to think too hard about it—he doesn’t believe in absolution, just movin’ forward.

    Summary

    Sam's getting married. Which is great. Genuinely, really great. Dean is happy for him.

    Dean is also, as a direct consequence of this engagement, standing in a church parking lot for the first time since he was four years old, which is less great.

    But it's just his luck that he meets a man with dark hair and blue eyes who owns a '68 Fairlane 500 with a 428 Cobra Jet under the hood that nobody's looked after properly in eighteen months.

    It's also just his luck that the man is a Catholic priest.

    Dean is thirty years old and should know better. However, he does not, apparently, know better.

    Dean offers to fix the car.
