I can't recall ever reading a fic where Dean was abstinent-until-marriage. But I have a similar thought to other fic tropes. I can't recall as to the specificity, but I've had that thought: "Why?"
Who was the real power? The Captain? or Tenille?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I've only finished one. But I've started two. Most of the Dean/Cas marriage-fic I don't get, but abstinence? Dean? Why?

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
Yuck. Too much S. Meyer influence.

Cas wanted it that way, and Dean loved him so much that he was happy to oblige. And of course there's the classic Cas-caught-more-often-than-he-pitched-so-he's-bride fic. Thank you, kitty_alex. That will live on in infamy forever.
Man, I sure prefer lust-addled Dean, or confused-as-to-his-worth Dean, or this-means-nothing-let's-do-it-again Dean. If he says the L-word within the first six months, I'm not entirely sure who you're writing about.
Exempt: accidental angel marriages. That shit cracks my ass up.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Dammit, my Stephanie Meyer snark was already done.

Has Dean ever even said the L word to Sam? It just doesn't seem like it would roll off of his tongue. I had a margarita with dinner. Shit, I don't know how Dean drinks so much. All I want to do now is go to sleep.

::whines:: I hate those! They're up there with Gabriel or whomever playing matchmaker. "You're now married, fall in love already/I ship you, now fall in love already".
I really liked how in Bodies From The Tracks, they were both "WTF?!" and "Let's do it again" and "Okay, again just to not be awkward" and tried so hard to not make a big deal out of it. That, the "LUST MUST HAVE NAO, yeah, it's just casual, uh huh" is so much more hotly potent to me than the "I'm in love but trying not to make a big deal out of it".

Oh. Matchmaker!Sam is a love of mine. But Gabriel has little to no place in my D/C. Accidental bonding is a subset of sex pollen for me, and I loves me some of that. I love the idea of forcing something repressed out into the open and especially Dean dealing with the sudden intimacy. Because the good ones make it clear it isn't just physical, no matter how much he wants to pretend.
I don't mind him being in love…I just think having him say it is so rarely earned.

Because books.
Less than twenty minutes to SHOW and I have four children in my living room playing a board game.
OUT, foul beasts!
I mean, "Dear children! It's time to toddle home now!"

Can't you at least relocate them to the kitchen or a bedroom or, you know, the basement?
