Title: Crusaders 2: Trial by Ordeal
Pairing(s): Gen with background het (Dean of Winchester/Joanna de Harvelle, John of Winchester/Mary mac Duibne)
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 22,542 plus notes (or ~21k plus notes and "Then")
Warnings: non-graphic descriptions of Viking torture/violence and pagan gods' appetites, references to attempted non-con, crass comments by Brother Asce, archaic language and gratuitous Anglo-Saxon; whumped!Samuel, perma-whumped!John
Summary: Post-"Abandon All Hope," Gabriel and Castiel went back in time and used the Second Crusade as cover to help Dean of Winchester and Brother Samuel of Rievaulx find their father and use the Colt to kill Azazel in January of 1148. But back in England, with the rebel angels gone back to the future and the Colt gone with them, it looks like all Hell is out for revenge on Dean and Samuel. Is the monk accusing Samuel of lying about his Angel Air-shortened travel times really possessed? When saintly Abbot Aelred sends Samuel, alone and unarmed, to drive demons off a grange built over a ghost town, will Dean arrive in time to save his life? Meanwhile in Winchester, has Mary's ghost gone vengeful, or is there something worse at work? Will a permanently injured John drive himself into the ground to save her spirit and the lives of his former servants? Will any of the men live long enough for Dean to marry Joanna? And what do a Viking curse, a Roman nymph, a place called Cold Oak, and the name Zelda Rubenstein have to do with anything?

Title: Slingshot
Pairing(s): Gen
Rating: T
Word Count: 10,461
Warnings: Language
Summary: The Winchesters and witches are never a good mix. They've pissed off a powerful she-witch and she's sent them back in time. Funny, hopefully!

Title: A Dreadful Symmetry
Pairing(s): Dean/Castiel, Adam/Michael, Brief Anna/Balthazar, Past Castiel/Balthazar
Rating: NC-17
Word Count: 37,229
Warnings: Attempted suicide, sexual assault, homophobia, explicit sex
Summary: After a failed suicide attempt, prompted by his father’s death and a love affair gone sour, Castiel Novak is persuaded to visit the prisoners of Newgate prison by his pious older brother Michael in the hopes of lifting his depression. Castiel finds himself drawn to one of the inmates, the enigmatic Dean Winchester, committed for fraud. Dean appears equally fascinated with Castiel and soon confides in Castiel that he has had contact with the dead. Castiel is at first skeptical but unexplained events prompt him to rethink his stance on the Supernatural. However, the Governor of Newgate prison warns Castiel that no good can come from his association with Dean.
Is Dean all he seems or is the Castiel the victim of an elaborate con?

Title: Shine A Light
Pairing(s): Destiel (mildly), Sam/Anna (very, very slightly)
Rating: PG-13 (ish)
Word Count: 10 015
Warnings: A few curse words here and there, perhaps?
Summary: Slightly AU where the boys are not (yet) hunters and both John and Mary are still alive. The story takes place in 1975 when The Rolling Stones is touring in USA. Sam and Dean are going to the concert but they have just two days to make it from Kansas to Memphis, Tennessee where the concert will be played. The journey goes less than smoothly but they get to meet some awesome people (like Castiel) on the road.
Also the members of The Rolling Stones make small voice over roles as themselves and there is one OMC in the story, too: a radio DJ.
5
Title: The Crown and the Lance
Pairing(s): Dean/Castiel, background Sam/Jess, (major spoiler Lucifer/Michael)
Rating: NC-17
Word Count: 37K
Warnings: Torture, explicit sex scenes, homophobia, alcoholism, language
Summary: War has passed and peace is upon the Kingdom of Salvation. Jousts are now common affairs, which Sir Dean of Winchester competes in to earn prizes for his ailing county. Yet when Dean is bested by an unknown competitor and saves Prince Castiel from a failed assassination attempt his life is torn apart as he is forced to confront old nightmares and memories. A medieval AU rife with assassins, treachery and emotionally crippled princes and knights.

Will Sam still be the sensitive one, or will he be forever changed? Will Dean still be the protector, or will his ability to hold his family together be all in vain?
