The GED reveal was in the first ep of S5, when he's giving his hoorah speech in Bobby's hospital room.
I would love some good wee!Chester or teen!Chester fic that doesn't overly sentimentalize them, and definitely more that addresses Dean *outside* of his role as Sam's brother.
There's one fic where it's strictly Dean's ... answers to an essay question? Or possibly something his teacher makes him write as a consequence, and it's so excellent. Every possible aspect of teen!Dean is there, including his cleverness. I'll have to look for the link.
I'll have to look for the link.
Yes, please ::grabby hands::
I can't find it! Maybe Plei or Perkins or Bev knows.
I can dwell in Dean as Sam's brother forever. Those years seem impossible for me, so I love reading about them.
A GED and a go get 'em attitude. That's our boy.
I think of him as unhealthily primarily obsessed with Sam that whole time, so for fic to reflect it...what have I tagged recently?
Sam and Dean in detention, by apocalypsos was just read today. This one's cute and John-centric, but all about the boys.
I've tagged precious little of the stuff. My main consumption of it was before I started tagging.
Just read the John-centric one and this line made me guffaw. The principal when talking to John thinking:
Good Lord, it's genetic.
Adorable.
Holy crap, the notes in the detention one! Bwah! That's the kind of stuff I absolutely melt over.
And the champion for season 3?
Sam: Yeah, because I've been following you around my entire life. I mean, I've been looking up to you since I was four, Dean. Studying you, trying to be just like my big brother.So, yeah, I know you. Better than anyone else in the entire world. And this is exactly how you act when you're terrified. And, I mean, I can't blame you. It's just...
Dean: What?
Sam: It's just, I wish you would drop the show and be my brother again, 'cause... just 'cause.

So far we have 1 John quote, 1 Dean quote, and 1 Sam quote. Who'd'a thunk it?
Perhaps we'll end up with Bobby & Castiel quotes for S4 & S5.
Aw, I like that kind of symmetry.

Chuck: I am the prophet Chuck!
vs

Alastair: Don't you recognize me? Oh, I forgot -- I'm wearing a pediatrician.
