Some time between Dean bleeding out on a makeshift hook in a barn in Ohio and Sam roasting marshmallows on his funeral pyre, Dean was brought back to life. By Castiel. Again. Dean agreed to it if only to give Jack time to work out the glitches up top. So, now Dean’s back in the land of the living and things are ... actually good, for once. Or, as good as they can be when demons are attacking Earth, Dean’s failing to get over why he died in the first place, and Cas is suddenly, inexplicably taking every opportunity to casually tell Dean that he loves him.

This story is saved in my brain as “the one where Cas constantly tells Dean that he loves him and poor Dean gradually loses his mind”!

Yeah, Dean is having a hard time in this story. There are demons on Earth keeping him busy, annoying brothers who love to tease him at every opportunity and of course a certain blue-eyed angel who walks through the bunker and nonchalantly confesses his feelings to Dean over coffee every other day and Dean is supposed to be normal about this??

This fic is a wonderfully realistic depiction about the development of our two favorite idiot’s relationship. Because let’s be honest here, they just love to make everything unnecessarily complicated. Why simply fall into each other’s arms and have a happy ending right away if you can make it messy, awkward and also kind of hilarious (at least for the readers) instead? 

So if you’re in the mood for that sort of story, please don’t hesitate to dive right in!
