This is a D/C micro-AU I wrote a while back for sycophantastic. Somehow we got on the topic of insomniac!fic, and this was the result. I realized it was a decent enough size, so I thought I'd post it to my journal. It's pretty short for an AU, though. Happy reading!


Title: Long Nights in Cold Months
Pairing: Dean/Cas (AU)
Rating: PG-13
Wordcount: 2200
Warnings/Spoilers: None
Summary: When you're an insomniac, you get used to the "what the hell are you doing up, man?" look. Dean just hopes the guy who's stocking the shelves will stop giving it to him long enough to help him find some damn pineapple.

My apologies for the exceedingly late posting, and for the quality of the finished product. Writing this was like pulling teeth, for reasons I can't quite figure out. You should go check out the artwork by amber1960 right over here. She's done quite a few lovely pieces and deserves your praise.

Beta thanks go to the fantastic sycophantastic and darkjediqueen, who both put up with a lot of stalling and whining from me every time this story didn't go the way I wanted it to.



Title: Scheherazade of the Super Eight
Author: pyrebi
Artist: amber1960
Pairing(s): Extremely mild Dean/Castiel.
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 17k
Warnings: Fairytale-style madness and unrealistically quick fixes, forced imprisonment, general malice, one bout of non-lethal violence, offscreen deaths.
Notes: Goes massively AU after mid-s6; loosely based on the frame tale of One Thousand and One Nights.

Summary: Dean doesn't know why angels keep recruiting him for impossible tasks. But they do, and now he's apparently the last chance heaven has--not only against Raphael, but against a dangerously unhinged Castiel. Oh yeah, and he has to do it all from the confines of a 10'x16' motel room that doesn't even exist.
