Warnings: Graphic Violence, Explicit Sexual Content
Summery: Dean and Castiel hadn’t known each other until the Earth fell apart. Until California fell into the ocean, the volcanoes took out Washington - everyone fled towards the Midwest to weather the earthquakes. Until the ozone was so fucked that daring to be outside without head-to-toe coverage would instantly bubble your flesh into second-degree burns.
It wasn’t simple global warning nor the burst pipelines and gas mains contaminating their water, the ice caps ice cubes. No, mother nature wasn’t fucking around anymore: she slammed down the self-destruct button.
Cas and Dean hadn’t even liked each other until they realized their broken pieces fit perfectly in a broken world. They were damaged beyond repair, but the other filled in those gaps.
In the real world, they never would have made sense: Dean had been an FBI agent, he’d been armed with intel before everything came crashing down. Castiel was a a hired bodyguard for those with enough cash, who weren’t afraid to get their hands dirty.
That was all in another life that went up in smoke.
And right now, Cas was currently pinning him against a wall with his hand down Dean’s pants. They had to make the most of the end, you know?

When he and Castiel happen to find each other - a couple of survivors in a world that’s been all but wiped clean - Dean’s looking for his brother; Castiel is looking for something to look for. They stick together, because neither of them much wants to be alone.
They hate each other at first, of course. Dean hates Castiel for being weird and quiet and ironic and antagonistic and proud. Castiel hates Dean for being blunt and reckless and coarse, for drinking, for refusing to talk about how he feels and just pretending everything is fine. Most of all, they hate themselves and each other just for being alive. What right do they have to be alive? No one else seems to be.
But against his own will, Dean starts to notice things about Castiel that he likes. Starts to hope that Castiel might like him, too. And together, they start to fight for a world where they’re both alive - and that’s a good thing.

Many years later, the city is divided into three rough zones: the Topzone, where the very wealthy live in the sunlight; the Midzone, where those of the less-well-off population live amid the flying traffic, the smog and their coffee addictions; and the Groundzone, what’s left at close to ground level—dim, grimy and occasionally very wet.
Sam and Dean Winchester are drug investigators in the LAPD. During a bust, Dean is saved by Castiel, one of the mysterious Angels, the elite fighting unit of the LA City Council. When Castiel insists on taking Dean to Paradise because he says they have work for him, Dean has little choice but to go along.
But when a new drug, “Elysium”, hits the scene, people all over the city start dying. The brothers and Castiel must work out where the drug is coming from and stop its spread before it’s too late.
Loosely based on Supernatural season four, with shades of The Fifth Element and a touch of Magicians.

Called to claim the only soldier to refuse the honor of Valhalla, intrigue paints his otherwise colorless eternity. Castiel journeys with Dean to find Sam, who’s been lost to the winds for years. With nothing but a clue-filled journal and an oath to ascend upon ‘mission accomplished,’ Dean embarks on this last harrowing quest, experiencing adventure beyond his wildest fantasy and heart’s desire along the way.
