Hey guys, I’ve got a couple more old favorites that I seem to have misplaced and could really using help tracking down.

1) Dean/Cas: H/C, human!Cas, sick!Cas, Castiel has a cold and Dean is taking care of him. Dean makes Cas a soup that his mother had made for him while he was sick; I think it had kidney beans and shell pasta, maybe. What I remember most is Dean telling Cas the story that his mom told: that every bean had it’s perfect shell that it would find. I think the author might have also included the recipe in an additional post.
FOUND! Thanks so much gilesbabe, link in comments.

2) Dean/Cas: This story featured Sam, who just learned that Dean and Cas were in a relationship and suspected that Dean was either possessed or under a spell or otherwise not himself. Dean has a shoebox of mementos, I think, that he shows to Cas and as he tells stories about his past, Sam realizes that he was wrong and what he’d first thought were instances of Dean being homophobic actually weren’t.

I hope someone is able to recognize these two. Thanks, guys!
