Summary
The first thing you needed to know was that Dean was a fire elemental, which basically meant he was able to call, you know, fire. Sounded pretty cool on the surface, except his powers’d manifested earlier than most. Problem with that was, preschoolers weren’t really able to control their feelings, and unfortunately elements were linked to emotions. To say that Dean was forced to learn control would’ve been an understatement. He structured his whole world to maintain it.
The second factor of importance was that on your 18th birthday you woke up with your soulmate’s name lit up behind your closed eyelids. A flash of brilliant red cursive and then it was gone. The why didn’t really matter much, the results spoke for themselves: The morning of Dean's eighteenth birthday he came to with startling clarity as the name Castiel Novak blazed in handwritten script inside his eyelids. Everyone in school knew Cas Novak. Typical bad boy incubus. Way more than Dean could handle, not that it mattered. Because even if Cas wanted him, which he doubted, Dean was too dangerous to let himself get close to anyone.

Summary
Dean, Benny, Charlie, Garth, and Cas are old college buddies. In their thirties now, they meet up once a year to shed their adult responsibilities for a week. This year it's Garth's turn to choose where they go and he's still as obsessed with horror and weird shit as he was back in college. He ends up picking a supposedly deserted hotel in the friggin' mountains. The place is creepy as hell and as night falls, two things become increasingly apparent. One: the place isn’t as deserted as they first thought, and two: Dean’s college stalker is back from the dead.

Summary
Dean Winchester has been alone for a long, long time.
When he and Castiel happen to find each other - a couple of survivors in a world that’s been all but wiped clean - Dean’s looking for his brother; Castiel is looking for something to look for. They stick together, because neither of them much wants to be alone. They hate each other at first, of course. Dean hates Castiel for being weird and quiet and ironic and antagonistic and proud. Castiel hates Dean for being blunt and reckless and coarse, for drinking, for refusing to talk about how he feels and just pretending everything is fine. Most of all, they hate themselves and each other just for being alive. What right do they have to be alive? No one else seems to be.
But against his own will, Dean starts to notice things about Castiel that he likes. Starts to hope that Castiel might like him, too. And together, they start to fight for a world where they're both alive - and that's a good thing.

Summary
Dean's life didn't start out great. With his mom dying and his father taking him and Sam on wild goose chase after wilder goose chase to track down her killer until Sam couldn't take it anymore and ran off, it pretty much sucked. But now he has Cas. And Cas is great--perfect, even--definitely the best thing that's ever happened to him, even if he isn't quite human. He's been living so long in domestic bliss that he completely forgot to be worried about waiting for the other shoe to drop. Which is, of course, when his giant of a brother strolls back into his life sending Dean into a panic that he and Cas will have to uproot their perfect apple pie life if Sam finds out Cas' big secret.
