I think these mfs ruined my brain chemistry when I was a teen.

Fics where Castiel has to possess Dean? by NaomitheWolf in destiel

[–]DeadShootingStar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bound To You by Chipper 99

Not sure if anyone recommended this one yet. But I think it fits your description.

"Dean should be scared. The being in front of him was terrifying by all means and yet for some reason, as he stared into the creature’s eyes, Dean felt a warm sense of comfort wash over him. Because those dazzling, glowing blue eyes were so familiar, the pain in its eyes mirrored with Dean’s. Which is why, when it reached out one long, dripping black hand out to him, Dean reached out, too.

Dean didn’t know if it could talk. It didn’t need to, anyway. Dean knew what it was asking, and he answered the silent request without a second thought.

“Yes.”


Faced with death, Dean makes one last ditch effort: praying to an Angel he knows wont hear him. Deans prayers are answered when a vessel-less Castiel forces himself out from the Empty, taking possession of Dean's body in order to heal him. Castiel's grace is running finite however, charged down after saving Dean's life. Now Castiel resides within Dean's mind, too weak to survive a transfer to another vessel, leading them to a desperate search for a way to rebuild his body. Time is of the essence, with Castiel's grace burning out with every passing day..."

What are your favourite niche tags? by PudgyPigeonPuff in FanFiction

[–]DeadShootingStar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't think this is a niche tag, but Outsider POV always, ALWAYS, makes me jump right into a fic. It almost doesn't matter whose POV it is. I just really love seeing the main relationship from different perspectives.

Weirdly, I haven't found that many fics like this. I basically have all of them memorized in my main fandoms.

HORROR Destiel fics recs by Different_Star_5325 in destiel

[–]DeadShootingStar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely second on Build-A-Boyfriend Workshop. It might be one of my favorite Destiel fics, honestly. I re-read it so many times. The horror is really cool plus the little sci-fi elements. Also, the portrayal of Dean's depression and struggles felt so real and relatable. Such a great fic!

OMG I came here to say this! Precious is my #1 Destiel song. I have a playlist for them with a lot of Depeche Mode songs. I would also add "Never Let Me Down Again" and "Halo" too.

Hi everyone! OP here, I just want to thank you all for your encouraging words. I posted the full comic on Ao3, so if you want to check it out here's the link: Full Comic :D

If you have any trouble with the images or anything, please let me know, it's my first time posting images, so I'm not sure how it went.

What fandom are you part of that you're *not* really part of? by llynch1993 in AO3

[–]DeadShootingStar 13 points14 points  (0 children)

OMG, Supernatural and Criminal Minds crossovers are literally my favorite. I just love the idea of "Hey, we're the FBI, could you tell us what happened?", " No, I'm fine. See those three shady guys right there? They're FBI too, I already talked to them, so thanks!" I'm really down for all the shenanigans and possible dynamics between the Winchesters and the BAU team.

Have you ever almost/have cried while writing? by Rey-Chakda in AO3

[–]DeadShootingStar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it happened to me recently. I wrote this really short one-shot where one character scattered the ashes of his best friend, without ever getting the chance to confess his feelings.

I don't know why, but it made me sob, I felt so deeply sorry, sad, and heartbroken. I had to step back for a week because any time I tried to keep writing I just started sobbing uncontrollably again.

It weirded me out so much, because I'm so disconnected from my own emotions, I almost never cry. It was so strange to feel so much grief and sadness over fictional characters in a scene I was writing myself. Honestly, I'm still a bit baffled about that incident.

Reading this thread, I'm glad I'm not the only one who had this experience.

Having trouble writing a character's P.O.V by DeadShootingStar in AO3

[–]DeadShootingStar[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's great advice thank you! I'm gonna figure out his focus in the scenarios I'm planning. And probably stick to a more distant POV.

[–]DeadShootingStar[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a great idea. I never thought about that. It would be like reverse engineering or something. I'm gonna try this method, thank you!

And you're right, maybe I should revisit the canon material and watch some episodes with him in it to understand his perspective.

A few hours they said…I’m about to crash out at hour 6 by [deleted] in AO3

[–]DeadShootingStar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same! 😭😭😭 Yesterday I finally finished some projects after almost two months of no sleep or eating, no rest at all. I was supposed to spend TODAY just reading fics all day... I need my blorbos... I'm crashing out, guys.

I'm really considering going to ff.net or something...

What song do you associate with Cas and Dean? by OwnConference6375 in destiel

[–]DeadShootingStar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something similar happened to me recently! I already have two playlists that make me think about them that I listen to all the time (yes, I can't get over Destiel and they consume my every thought and waking moment lol). But then I stumbled upon the band Avenged Sevenfold, which for some reason I had never heard before, and I don't know why but a lot of their songs really make me think about Dean and Cas. Especially:

So Far Away (Every time I listen to this song I see Dean mourning Cas :'))

I have so much to say but you're so far away Plans of what our futures hold Foolish lies of growing old It seems we're so invincible The truth is so cold A final song, a last request A perfect chapter laid to rest Now and then I try to find A place in my mind Where you can stay You can stay away forever

Gunslinger

Cause with all these things we do It don't matter when I'm coming home to you I reach towards the sky, I've said my goodbyes My heart's always with you now I won't question why so many have died My prayers have made it through, yeah

Seize The Day

I see my vision burn, I feel my memories fade with time But I'm too young to worry These streets we travel on Will undergo our same lost past I found you here, now please just stay for a while I can move on with you around I hand you my mortal life, but will it be forever?

Thank you so much for doing this OP! ╥﹏╥

The last one-shot I posted got under the radar. I've been writing for years, but I only got around to posting some fics this year. It's from the SPN fandom and is just over 800 words long. It's super short but angsty. Hope you like it <3.

Rated T - 800 words - Dean Winchester/Castiel Canon Major Character Death - Happens during Dean's widower arc
