Castiel is newly human and living in the bunker. Dean is just trying to be a supportive friend, but the closer he gets to the former angel, the harder it becomes to avoid what has always been simmering between them... S9 Destiel, canon up until the angels falling but branches off after that, slow burn (well, detailed and sluggish but let's call that slow burn). Multi-chapter.

PROMPT: Don't imagine Cas being kidnapped by a Djinn. Don't imagine Sam being the one who goes inside his head to save him and finding that Cas's dream world is living a normal life with Dean. Don't imagine them all hanging out and when Dean finally leaves them alone for five minutes Sam trying to explain to Cas that this isn't real and Cas saying "I know." (continues inside)

Dean and Cas talk over the years on their Instant Message accounts, Impala67 and Angel Wings. Over a period of five years they stay in contact, promising never to completely leave each other. But time changes everything.

This is not a story, I am writing enough of those, but a bunch of little scenes that pop into my head while writing...Pairings vary widely(Except Destiel. Pretty constant). One chapter has nothing to do with the next and it is mostly fluff. Save to see updates. It will be something to flip through if you're ever bored. Rated 'M' for Chapter 8. Smut alert.
