I'm not sure about the first one, but for the second one, I think you're looking for swing_set13's au masterlists. You can find them here (http://swing-set13au.livejournal.com/). :) You have to join her community to see them.

Would you by any chance have a link to the Worthless!Verse you mentioned?

Thank you!

An Exercise In 'Worthless' :http://archiveofourown.org/works/535676

At the bottom of the page the author links to a tumblr account with more drabbles in this verse.

This is wonderful! Thank you so much! I'm always amazed at how fast & thoroughly responses are made on spnstoryfinders. Love this place!

Thanks again!

Ok, there were enjoyable Cas/Dean tat stories:

Imprint (http://archiveofourown.org/works/130691) by melonbutterfly
- They have this ritual - before Castiel gets a new one, they recapitulate his old tattoos.

Adventures in Ink (http://archiveofourown.org/works/763810) by driverpicksthemusic
- He may never get to experience having wings again, but they would always be part of him, and maybe it was time he showed that.



Sorry I couldn't do more. Turns out as much as I love tat fics and Destiel (the Worthless verse is the best), apparently most of the ones I have saved are gen, weird pairings, or wincest.

Thank you for such quick replies... love the tat ones and thank you for the masterlist, I've been searching for that for quite a while! Orange_8_hands would you be able to give me the other tat links apart from the Wincest ones? Thanks guys, you're all so beautiful!

Sure.

Shells of a Long-Ago Lifetime (Faces That Once Were Mine Mix) (http://archiveofourown.org/works/386232#main)by freneticfloetry
- He tells Sam's story on his skin, in ink so it won't wash away.
- gen, preseries AU; the original of this story is really good too and this story has a link for it but this story focuses on the tats and works as a stand-alone

Roadhouse Ink (http://epicycles.livejournal.com/185961.html) by epicycles
- AU. After an injury, Dean retires from hunting to become a tattoo artist, slipping anti-possession symbols into all the art. One day two djinn -- the supposed Trickster and his younger brother -- turn up on Dean's doorstep, needing his help and offering a wish in return.
- gen; has Cas and Gabriel; I could see this working as pre-slash Gabe/Dean (which is not my preferred ship so if I'm seeing it...however author wrote it and it reads as gen)

self-rec: The Definition of Claire (http://archiveofourown.org/works/309480) by orange_8_hands

Ink til I'm Human (http://archiveofourown.org/works/919121) by templecat
No one expected this would be how he copes, least of all Castiel himself. But Dean seems to like it.

The Devil you know (http://archiveofourown.org/works/887657/chapters/1711516) Snarky Monkey
Castiel works at Purgatory Drop, a local tattoo parlor run by his good friend Balthazar. Unfortunately, for the last two years he's also worked alongside the attractive Dean Winchester.

Of course I second? Third? An Excercise in Worthless.

Of course there's the Tattoo Tag (http://archiveofourown.org/works?utf8=%E2%9C%93&work_search%5Bsort_column%5D=revised_at&work_search%5Bother_tag_names%5D=&work_search%5Bquery%5D=tattoo&work_search%5Blanguage_id%5D=1&work_search%5Bcomplete%5D=0&work_search%5Bcomplete%5D=1&commit=Sort+and+Filter&tag_id=Castiel%2FDean+Winchester) filtered through Cas/Dean in AO3 but those three are my favorites.
