Hello, so I don’t know if this is is okay as it’s maybe not about destiel per say, but I was wondering if any of you have any book recommendations that feel like destiel fics feel like?

I can’t explain it a lot better than this, but I feel like I can’t read normal books anymore as nothing scratches the surface of the great writers in our fandom that portray these two falling in love again and again… still, I think I should try to sprinkle something else in every once in a while.

So, book recs m/m where the characters feel a little like Cas/dean? Some long burns maybe?

The one I’ve personally felt has given me that sort of feel - and it’s a great book (with all the flaws and critics people have about it, which I do understand) on its own - is A Little Life.

Also - what books are out there that you are so sure used to be destiel fan fiction?? Because I could swear when heated rivalry came out I was so sure it had to be a destiel ff. Specifically, all you young hockey players out there, lol

Ok vagabonds is one of my favorite EVER fics, it’s a western au, slow burn, enemy to lovers type, I mean it’s very well known. Any recs for something with a similar dynamic, wether it’s western or not, I also really like the hurt/comfort. Much appreciated:)

So i‘m pretty new to destiel and i would love to read some fanfics. What do you consider the must-read fics to someone who is new to destiel. And what are your absolute favorites? I‘m open to everything but it must be completed. Thank you guys in advance!

So I’m Slavic myself, and I genuinely cannot believe it took me this long to connect the dots.
Today I randomly thought, “Wait… Misha is such a Slavic name.”
Cue me going down a rabbit hole and finding out:
Misha Collins’ birth name is Dmitri Tippens Krushnic.
He has Russian and other Eastern European ancestry.
He speaks Russian (not fluently, but honestly pretty well).
And now I’m sitting here wondering how I never questioned it. 😭 Like…Misha is one of the most recognizable Russian nicknames ever, and somehow my Slavic brain never made the connection.
It also suddenly explains why there’s such a massive Russian Supernatural fandom and why my TikTok FYP keeps showing me Russian Destiel edits. 😂 I always knew there were a ton of Russian fans, but now I’m wondering if Misha’s background has something to do with why he resonates so much there (or maybe I’m just making connections where there aren’t any lol).
Now I’m craving fics where Cas actually has some Russian influence because I feel like I’ve unlocked a new hyperfixation.
Does anyone have good destiel recs where Cas is Russian (or Russian-coded), speaks Russian, has Slavic family/cultural influences, or Misha’s background is incorporated in a believable way? Bonus points if Dean absolutely loses it every time Cas casually switches to Russian.
I’m open to canon-divergence, AUs, fluff, angst pretty much anything as long as it’s well written. (No ai please )And if the Russian is actually accurate instead of obvious Google Translate… even better. 😭

Does anyone have a favorite Dean/Castiel doujinshi/fan comic?

I’d love to hear which ones people like or think are worth checking out are!

I am at ep1 s14. From the look of it, it seems like >!Michael being in Dean suit- this is not going to be a short term thing, but continues for most part of season 14?

Please prepare me for this- there is no scope for any destial moments or Jack Dean + cas moments is it?

I am still going to watch all episodes but there's just this dull ache lol, want to be prepared!<

Edit- please ignore, I am at ep 3 and understood the Dean is back at the bunker, Michael not around anymore for now.

Looking for fics with the coolest alternative universes (i mean the basics like coffee shop and college is great but i like me a niche universe) my favourites ive read so far are “alaskan research station”, “hockey players” (WELL before heated rivalry) and “teen dad Dean to Sam” so any Destiel Fics matching those vibes would be great THANK U EVERYONE YOUR RECOMMENDATIONS ARE AS ALWAYS APPRECIATED
