Fic: Zenith (Supernatural)

[anactoria]

Title: Zenith
Author: anactoria
Artist: kuwlshadow
Fandom/Genre: SPN, canon-divergent AU, hurt/comfort
Pairing(s): Dean/Cas
Rating: NC-17
Word Count: 33,000
Warnings: Nothing you wouldn’t find in canon.
Summary: AU from 9.06 (“Heaven Can’t Wait”). Still relatively new to humanity, Castiel struggles with both Dean’s confusing behaviour and the loss of his angelic faculties. When a pissed-off witch restores his ability to see the supernatural, the curse seems like a blessing. He can help his friends again – and when Dean’s lies blow up in his face and Sam is once again left hovering between life and death, Cas is happy to be useful. But his abilities keep getting stronger, and they might just be more than a human brain can handle.
Notes: My entry for the deancasbigbang 2015. Phew!
Many thanks to my betas, aerynsun5, amberdreams, and rons_pigwidgeon for all their help. And many, many thanks to the amazing kuwlshadow, who stepped in to pinch-hit when my original artist was forced to drop out, like a DCBB fairy godmother. Please go check out the art masterpost here!

The notion of what it means for an angel to 'see' beings has always entranced me

YES, me too! And I'm really glad it worked for you here. Thanks for reading, bb! ♥
