    Summary

    KIM — He closes the door to the Kineema with barely-restrained force, indifferent despite the biting, billowing wind, which ruffles his hair and creates waves across his orange bomber jacket. If Harry were an artist, this is what he would paint: his stoic, petty, breathtaking partner, glaring at him behind two walls of writhing glass, just because Harry was stupid enough to ask if he was okay.
    EMPATHY [Godly: Success] — He is who he is, just like you are who you are.
    SHIVERS — NOT FOR LONG.

    March, '52. Harry is mostly sober, entirely Kim's partner, and desperate to solve the stabbing of two children from an RCM outreach program by a mysterious killer from the past. But one year after their exposure to the pale emitter, the extreme, all-engulfing madness that made him into the Human Can-Opener, made him who he is, has completely abandoned him.

    Meanwhile, Kim discovers he is no longer alone in his head.

    Cas thinks it's absolutely fucking ridiculous that Dean couldn't stay alive for more than five minutes, so he drags his ass back to Earth. Also, he's pretty done with Sam Winchester as a whole person.

    Summary

    Dean's sixteen when he meets John's well-to-do boss, Castiel Novak, and he's quick to develop a crush during a time where he's only begun to discover his preferences. He dates the beautiful Lisa and practically raises his younger brother Sam, because it's what John expects. But Castiel appears to see Dean in a way no one else does, and despite him knowing there's no way anything can happen between them, he relishes in the idea that Castiel cares at all for his well-being.

    Between mounting pressures from a teenage Sam that no longer wants a caretaker, John's nudging for Dean to follow a career path he doesn't want, and a mysterious check for the exact amount of one semester at the school Dean had been eyeing, Dean finds himself reconnecting with Castiel.

    And Castiel has a very interesting proposition for him.

    Summary

    The heart is a funny thing. Some say it loves, and others say that it is just a muscle, keeping you alive for some minuscule amount of time. For Cas Shurley, the heart was a defective reminder that each day was maybe going to be his last. For years he had been in and out of hospitals. For years he had viewed time as something trickling down the drain. Then Sam Winchester died. He died, and Cas got to live. And in what universe was that fair? But he accepted the gift, and told himself that he would live. Each beat of Sam’s heart in his chest was an anthem, a siren song beckoning him back to life.

    This new heart though, wanted him to do more than just live. This heart had a story to tell. It would wake him up in the night, and visit him with cold drafts and a sense of purpose that would propel him out of bed. But before he could truly live and act on the demands of his new heart, he would have to get out of the hospital, and he would have to meet the Winchester family. And though he didn’t know it, he would especially have to meet Dean, Sam’s brother. And meeting him would remind him of just how much more there was to life than just the living.

    Written for the 2015 DCBB.
