"Below Skyscrapers" by aesc, read by cath | Dean/Castiel, Sam/Jessica | AU | "Castiel, this is Detective Winchester," Bobby's saying, voice rough and real. It's a distraction, although a brief one, the angel glancing at him before studying Dean again with that same silent intensity. "He'll be on the Circle Murders too." | 3hrs. 33mins.

Qenayah, Cas mutters, hand sliding around Dean's cheek. The other hand lies flat against Dean's chest, over his heart, which starts to gallop again, but only a few steps before it calms. Be still, and he's heard stories about the true voices of angels, how they're like earthquakes and can shatter glass and eardrums. This is a quieter power, and irresistible, no way Dean can fight against it, not with his guts shredded. He probably is dying, and maybe Cas is the one who'll take him over to the one place no one's god or spirit can tell them about.

Wow. Seriously, wow. This story is set in a universe where the supernatural is known to everybody. Dean and Victor are cops and Dean's partnered with an angel to stop a demon from summoning something bad and ugly. Wow. I'm smitten!
