Saturday: Specialty Recs (Castiel Takes Over Hell)
Public Enemy #1

"Listen," Sam says patiently. "If someone has to rule Hell, shouldn't it at least be someone we like?"
While hilarious and fun to read, this story also packs an emotional punch that stayed with me after I'd finished reading. Dean and Castiel show their feelings for each other through gruff understatement, stubbornness and self-sacrifice, and the end result is a warm, funny and real story that I re-read regularly. Plus, Sam and Castiel talking about the pros and cons of different management styles to try out in hell? Best thing ever!
Right of Conquest

Lucifer takes a personal interest in Castiel, Dean takes a personal interest in Castiel, Castiel feels his faith wavering, and a white horse waits to run.
An interesting and original plot, plus an awesome take on the four riders of the apocalypse. I loved Dean's point of view in this one the best, but the way it's structured (first half in Castiel's POV, Dean's in the second half) works incredibly well. The themes of good and evil and free will make this a story that you can really sink your teeth into.
Better The Devil

Sam and Dean saved the world by doing something crazy, clever, and with such a slim chance of success it counted as suicidal.
I love Dean's faith in Castiel in this story, and how intricately the plot comes together as Dean struggles to understand why Castiel has done what he's done. All the side characters bring something special as well, and Sam is pretty damn awesome. All in all, I think this might be my favorite season five Dean/Castiel fic.
