Summary
“Those things will kill you,” Baz growled after him, but the door had already closed. Not that it mattered, since what Baz really meant was “I’ll kill you” and Dev certainly knew that already given the particular video shop patron he’d just dumped in Baz’s lap. The one and only (unfairly attractive) customer Baz had demanded he never be made to serve at all.
Not because this customer was a heathen who never rewound, or a meathead who only rented terrible movies, though Baz was nearly certain after several weeks of careful monitoring that he was both of these things. The actual problem was the way this boy’s broad shoulders looked in the uniform (a slightly too small white dress shirt with a green bowtie) he wore to his job working at the Safeway down at the other end of the Watford Retail Park. Maybe his adorable freckles were part of it, too. And that little hollow right above his shirt collar where his jaw met his throat. And the way his arse looked in his cheap polyester work trousers. And—
Okay no, actually, the problem was that Baz was completely gay.

Summary
Six months after Cas was swallowed by the Empty, Dean, Sam and Jack find a spell to pull an angel from the Empty, but the last ingredient is missing. Determined to save Cas, Dean travels back to 2009 to get the missing ingredient from the only person who can give it to him: Castiel, fresh from having pulled Dean from hell.
(Inspired by the tumblr post about what would be the most insane combination of Dean and Cas to meet. My answer was post-confession Dean and season 4 Cas)

Summary
Brittle and battle-worn, Cas looks at him over coffee one morning and says, "I need to go," and Dean instantly knows that he's not coming back.
He's not really sure how he knows it, but he does. It settles into the pit of his stomach, curling hot and tight like something he instinctively wants to tear out with his bare hands. He takes a breath, and it gets stuck in his throat, hitching there. It hurts, hurts, hurts when he finally exhales.
"Yeah," Dean says, "of course you do," and he nods jerkily as he looks down at his phone. He doesn't say goodbye. He doesn't look up from the screen when Cas gets up and leaves the room. He doesn't finish his coffee, or move for a long time.
By nightfall, Cas is gone.

Summary
“How the fuck do you know my name?” Dean hisses.
The man doesn’t look scared. He is watching Dean like there is nothing else worth watching, lips a little parted, eyes a little soft. And blue. Real blue, like the ocean on a postcard.
The ice spreading down Dean’s spine makes him shiver.
“I suppose you could say I’m your guardian angel,” the man murmurs. His breath fogs pale between them. All of him is unnaturally warm, like Dean’s touching somebody with the sun sewn up beneath their skin. “I have known you, Dean Winchester, for a very long time.”
*
Dean meets an angel who says he's from the future. It all gets a lot more complicated from there.

Summary
In his final year of college, Dean Winchester’s got a lot of decisions to make: what he’s going to do with his life, where he’s going to do it, and most importantly, which girl he’s going to do... right now. And later tonight. And the next night. And the next—
When new transfer student Castiel Novak shows up first in his class, and then his friend group, Dean can’t help but see it as an infiltration. Something is up with Castiel, and he’s going to find out what. More accurately, he’s going to enlist his best and longest suffering hacker friend, Charlie Bradbury, to do it for him.
Not a single one of Dean’s suspicions has anything to do with the fact that upon their first meeting, Castiel insults his shoes, his general existence, and his masculinity by— looking at him like that.

Summary
Before he knows it, he and Lance have overstayed their welcome at the afterparty bar, too, and Lance says, “I’d invite you up to my room, but I’m pretty sure Hunk is passed out right now,” and before Keith can second-guess it, he says, “I have beer in mine, if you still want to catch up.”
Which is weird. Since when do he and Lance catch up? Keith has no idea. He also has no idea what they’ve been talking about, other than anything and everything that’s not Shiro and the fact that he’s marrying someone who isn’t—
Fuck.
--
Or: After Allura's death and Shiro's wedding, Keith and Lance inadvertently teach each other how to love again.- Language:

Summary
Lance’s posture has gone from somewhat respectable to bad to worse, and his attention span is slowly but surely reaching its breaking point, when the door in the back of the room slides open.
Blue and gray and black. Long, dark hair. A familiar set of eyes. The same faded scar carved along his cheek.
Lance jerks upright, nearly jumping out of his chair.
“I’m filling in for Kolivan.”
The words strike right through Lance’s sternum. And he didn’t even have his defenses up. He didn’t have time to prepare.
Although somewhere deep down, he knows that no time in the world could’ve prepared him for seeing Keith again.
or: Being stuck with his ex at a diplomatic conference for a solid month is super cool and very fun. Because Lance is over him. Obviously. He so is.

Summary
He’d had hope, after those talks, that when the sting of Olympic loss had faded he and Auguste would be able to salvage something of their old friendship. This doesn’t seem likely now. Sorry I gave you a concussion when I checked you is one thing; sorry I beat you out for the gold medal and then had your little brother wear it while I fucked him is another.

Summary
“Have you considered the possibility that Neil has chosen you, but believes you have not chosen him?” Renee says. "Have you ever explicitly told him what you want?”
“Neil knows what I want,” Andrew snaps. This is not Andrew’s fault.
“How do you know?”
Because Neil always knows. He is as fluent in Andrew’s micro-expressions as he is in German and French. He knows which head tilts mean “go on” and which ones mean “shut up.” Without ever asking, he learned what it meant to see Andrew wearing double layers of long sleeves, or taking multiple showers in a day, and learned to hand Andrew the car keys.
That has always been the most terrifying thing about Neil — his patience to wait, watch, listen, learn. The prospect that if Neil were given enough time, there would be no part of Andrew that was just Andrew’s anymore.
“He has to know,” Andrew says.
“Does he?” Renee says. “Have you ever known Neil to assume that he is wanted?”
Five times Neil tells someone that he and Andrew aren’t dating, and one time Andrew uses his words to set the record straight.

Summary
Merlin understood why he could not sensibly stay the night in Arthur’s bed—it was too big, too pleasant to not remind him of his place. He felt awkward facing the broad expanse of Arthur’s back where he’d rolled away once the heat of the moment had passed, knowing beyond a shadow of doubt that Arthur expected him gone by morning.
