Summary
A collection of DGHDA ficlets, all based on prompts I've gotten on tumblr (protecticarus, hence the title).
All prompts are found at the beginning of each chapter and all chapters read as individual stories! All chapters are also now named to (hopefully) help you navigate them a little easier. So feel free to pick and choose and skip around or read in order, however you want!
Many thanks to everyone who has been prompting, reading and liking these so far!

Summary
”I’m talking about you, out there, with my parents.” Todd tried to get Dirk to understand.
”Did I do something wrong?” Dirk asked, now worried.
Todd blinked a few times. ”You really don’t know what I’m talking about, do you?” He finally asked.
”No?” Dirk replied.
”My parents think we’re a couple.” Todd explained.
”A couple…?”
”Dating, in a relationship, romantically involved!” Todd huffed in frustration.
Dirk looked genuinely surprised. ”They do?”
”Yes!” Todd exclaimed. ”And you’re confirming it for them!”
”I am?” Dirk asked.
”Yes! Obviously!” Said Todd.
OR
Based on a prompt I got on tumblr: "Dirk meets Todd's parents who just assume Dirk is his boyfriend, and for fun Dirk plays along while Todd is clueless."

Quentin’s breath got caught in his throat.
OR: Kady notices Q suffering and knows what he’s going through, a little too well even.

Summary
Cas is hit with what Dean calls a “fuck-or-die” spell. The Winchesters drive him back to the bunker at full speed, but he’s not going to make it – he needs help NOW. Dean passes the wheel to Sam, and hops into the Impala’s back seat. But there’s only so much pretending he and Castiel can do. If they’re going to fix this problem, they need to stop acting like they don’t want each other, and describe their desires. But quietly. Because poor Sam can only turn the radio up so loud.

One morning Emma gets ready to sneak off the Jolly, only to find that she cannot bring herself to leave.
Three cups of S3 canon divergence, one cup of introspection, one cup of softness, and a dash of frustration.
