Summary
After burnout father John Winchester is killed in a freak car accident when Dean is 19, the boys’ lives take an entirely different turn than they could have. Sammy gets to finish school properly without learning to fire a gun before he can work the TV remote, Bobby gets to see the two of them grow up into a stable, normal life, and Dean - well. Dean gets to experience first-hand the utterly mundane boredom that comes with average small town life. That is, until a man with eyes like an angel decides to walk into town and throw most of what Dean Winchester thinks he knows about life straight out of the window. IN THE PROCESS OF REWRITING THIS - PLEASE BEAR WITH ME.

Summary

Summary
“If you don’t want me to go with you...then don’t go, Dean,” the ex-angel finishes with a note of casualness in his voice, as if the decision is simple.
Unfortunately, Dean Winchester is nothing if not stubborn.
He sucks on his teeth for a moment, roughly picks up his duffel, and slings it over his shoulder as he storms past Cas in the doorway with a bite of, “Go get in the damn car,”.
(TLDR: Cas is rescued from the empty, human. Dean wants to stop hunting because he loves Cas, but can't figure out how to let himself; however, he doesn't want Cas to hunt either, because he loves him. Conflict, angstiness, and love ensues.)

Summary
“We’re supposed to be out of the life, Cas,” Dean says. “And Sam just brought it home. So, what, now we’re just gonna raise the kid? Hope that we’re better parents than our dads were so he doesn’t grow up wanting to destroy the world?”
“He’ll just be a baby,” Cas murmurs. “Can’t we give this child the benefit of the doubt? A chance, at least, to make his own choices?”
Dean shakes his head. “The whole thing just scares me. I don’t know how to protect you guys. What if something happens to Sam, or to Claire, or to you?”
“Nothing will happen to us,” Cas promises. “Have some faith.”

Summary
“Don’t worry,” Wade tells him. Summer in the city is blissful, but none of that elation is displayed in the dismal gray sky or the frantic traffic below them. “I’m sure that one day, somebody’ll come to punish me for all the things I’ve done in my life. I just don’t recognize anybody who can.”
Peter reaches forward. Wraps his fingers around his arm. Holds him to hold him. “But I don’t want your punishment.”
He wants his health. He wants his happiness. He wants him.
“I want your recovery. And I don’t-” His grip tightens. “I don’t know how to help you.”
Wade takes his hand and presses it against his heart.
“This,” He admits, a smile ghosting across his lips. “This is how.”
After Doctor Strange’s spell and month after month of starved depression, the last thing Peter needs is Deadpool settling down in Queens with a beyond-the-grave mission from Tony Stark to “find and protect the kid”. Hoping to distract him from finding his identity, he develops an alliance with the mercenary. Then a friendship. Then a crush. With lines getting crossed and connections growing deeper, by the time Peter realizes he's fallen in love, it's far too late to back out.
