The Consequences of Falling by Pandarus (NC-17)
We've got the Impala revved up and ready to go, Metallica in the tape deck, and a certain angel in the backseat. This month we're bringing Castiel front and centre for a set of recs that will reflect some of my very favourite Dean/Castiel pieces, as well as some gen stories. Also, with the Season 5 premiere coming up fast, I'm open to the flood of new fic that's sure to follow new episodes. So hop in - we're (hell)bound for an exciting month!

Why this must be read: Here's the author's summary: A story in fifteen parts, in which the angel Castiel finds himself put in an untenable position, and consequentially loses his grace. In which he goes on a roadtrip with a demon, discovers the delights of tequila and french fries and pie, plays a starring role in a virgin sacrifice, is deflowered by his favourite Winchester, and then gets some very unpleasant news indeed.
You need more convincing? Okay, it's got a great Ruby voice. Even if she's not your favourite character, you might like her here. She's got spirit, and her roadtrip with Castiel is worth the price of admission. There's a lot of humour, a tremendous dose of angst, and a lot of insight into the angel's character. It's absolutely one of my favourite stories featuring Dean/Castiel, and I can't give it a high enough recommendation.
Ruby lets the window roll all the way down before she leans across and looks Castiel up and down. Her expression is distinctly wary, but with an edge of incredulous hilarity lifting her brows and twisting her mouth. "Jesus, you fucked Dean."
Castiel has been frowning since the moment he recognised her, but at this exclamation his scowl deepens even further and he crosses his arms in front of his chest. "What?" he says, and that isn't at all what he had intended to say to this creature, but she has startled him and momentarily derailed his busy train of thought. He stops trying to think of ways to kill her, now that he is mortal and unarmed, and simply stares instead. "What are you talking about?"
"You're human," she says, looking at him narrowly. He flinches. "They busted you down to earth, didn't they?" He looks away, pressing his lips together tightly. "Had to be something major. You totally fucked Dean, and now you're on the run." She frowns. "Without him?"
Castiel is baffled and offended in equal measure. "I am not on the run. The host know where I am." He considers again the assertion that he has had some kind of carnal involvement with one of the humans and tries to understand what can possibly have brought her to such a conclusion. "You are not making any sense." His mind skips on to more important matters. "How did you locate me?"
She shakes her head."This, believe it or not, is serendipity. Pure coincidence."
"I do not believe in coincidence," says Castiel. The sun is dipping down towards the horizon, painting the sky with garish streaks of crimson and pink and lavender. It is starting to grow cold. Castiel's feet hurt, and he is thirsty, and his body has been sweating and making his clothes dirty. He would really, really like to get into the warm car and go to sleep. If only it wasn't being driven by a demon.
