There's a Kind of Hush

Y'all know I seldom say never when it comes to sequels, but here I think I've reached the best place to leave this particular AU. So for those who might be interested in having the whole thing in one downloadable piece, I've put together an omnibus PDF.
Many thanks to beta extraordinaire [livejournal.com profile] jennytork, whose fault it is and always will be, and who supplied a couple of lines to get me unstuck when I needed it. ♥

Summary: Dean's deafness doesn't mean there isn't another shoe or three to drop every time he turns around. At least this time it holds off until after he and Lisa tie the knot, and at least this batch of shoes isn't all bad news.

The Silent Stars Go By

Merry Christmas-in-July, and a very happy early birthday to my dear [livejournal.com profile] jennytork, whose fault it is forever and always! :D

Summary: Dean's retired. You hear that, universe? RE-TI-RED. Can you keep the long-lost grandfathers and Knights of Hell out of his living room, huh? Is that too much to ask?! (Oh, who is he kidding, the universe is as deaf as he is....)

All Quiet on the Western Front

Picking up after Quiet on the Set, and inspired in part by a conversation with [livejournal.com profile] immortal_jedi....

Summary: After three days in Bizarro World, Dean's ticked off at Cas and very adamantly retired. Cas is determined to keep the angelic civil war away from Cicero, not even giving the news of it directly to Dean--but as matters escalate, Sam and Lisa must decide whether to tell Dean all they know and risk ruining his friendship with Cas.

Bit late for April Fools'...

... but still somewhat in the spirit of the silly season! For [livejournal.com profile] jennytork, whose fault it will always be, and for [livejournal.com profile] nong_pradu, who requested deaf!Dean in the latest [livejournal.com profile] hoodie_time comment-fic meme.

Summary: Cas sometimes has a strange definition of keeping people safe--like the time his buddy Balthazar sends the Winchesters and Braedens into a world where no one believes Dean's really deaf.

Silence Is Golden (PG)

Another step toward clearing out my WIP backlog, this one voted on by my flist. I suspect there's more to come in this AU, but I don't have a particular plotbunny for it... yet.

Summary: Being deaf is bad enough for a hunter. But when Dean wakes up unable to see after being snatched from a museum he was visiting with Ben, he'll stop at nothing to get his eyes, his freedom, and his son back. And he might just learn some valuable information along the way. His kidnappers won't know what hit them.

A/N: For [livejournal.com profile] jennytork, whose fault it still is, especially since part of the plot for this story fills a prompt she left eons ago on a [livejournal.com profile] hoodie_time comment-fic meme. The beginning overlaps somewhat with the end of Still, Still, Still.

Christmastide isn't over until Epiphany...

... so have a belated deaf!Dean Christmas extravaganza!

For [livejournal.com profile] jennytork, whose fault it is, and for [livejournal.com profile] eschatologies and [livejournal.com profile] riama82, who joined En in requesting deaf!Dean for the [livejournal.com profile] hoodie_time Holiday Wish List Party. The first two parts of this AU are here; this story picks up immediately after the end of “Like Silent Raindrops Fell.” This is also kind of a fill for a prompt I posted on the last hoodie_time comment-fic meme, though it’s morphed enough to fit better in this ’verse than in canon or even in its own AU. Some spoilers for Season 6, and a few lines of dialogue borrowed or paraphrased from “Exile on Main Street,” “The Third Man,” and “Weekend at Bobby’s” and from a moment that was in a Season 6 promo but didn’t make it into “Exile on Main Street” as aired.
Summary: Dean may be deaf, but that won’t stop him from surprising friend and foe alike this Christmastide once he and Sam find out that Bobby’s still under Crowley’s thumb.

Here's an SPN AU two-shot...

... or at least for now it's a two-shot--from the latest [livejournal.com profile] hoodie_time Autumn-themed comment-fic meme, based on prompts from [livejournal.com profile] jennytork; rated PG for mild language and too-heavy-for-tots angst. Mild spoilers for Season 6.

Prompt #1: The beating Lucifer gave Dean in Stull Cemetary has left Dean deaf. He doesn't even realise it until he comes out of his grief two days after everything happened, since Cas leant him his hearing for the last few moments before Dean drove away.

But now he's deaf and it's Halloween. I have this image of him sitting on the bed of his truck, handing out candy and wishing he could hear their voices and wishing Sam was here.

Prompt #2: A deafened Dean's first Thanksgiving.
