In about a month's time I'll be getting ready to announce the next round of the bang, which will be a regular (non-reverse) angels and demons mini + big bang. So stay tuned for details, once I've had the chance to plot out the schedule and make preparations.

SPN Angels & Demons Reverse Bang 2024 Art Masterpost: The Fool's Journey

This year the Angels & Demons Bang (@spnangelsanddemons-rb ) was a Reverse Bang, meaning the artists would go first and authors would choose what art to write from. Since last year I had an amazing time as an author and, since then, I've started sharing fanart, I decided it would be a good idea to join this reverse bang.

Due to the artistic nudity of the piece I submitted, the drawing on tumblr will be censored. You can find the uncensored version on my Pillowfort. My favorite spn angel is (surprise, surprise) Gadreel, so the piece was all about him.

The drawing was chosen by @ladyknightskye, who wrote an amazing fic for it which you can find at this link.

I'd like to thank @hawkland for organizing this and giving us a change to love our fave characters.

The post is quite long, so I am going to add a read more.

Art Masterpost: The Mortal Angel and The Devil's Prisoner Story by: AvalonSilver (@avalonsilver) Art by: sidewinder (@hawkland)

Welcome to my second collaboration for the Angels & Demons Reverse Bang (@spnangelsanddemons-rb)!

I am always and forever weak for Endverse fic and art, so I knew I had to do something featuring (my beloved) endverse!Cas for this bang. In contemplating topics and possibilities not typically explored, though, I started thinking about endverse!Cas and Lucifer!Sam and what their dynamic might be like in some kind of AU or divergence from "The End." What if Cas survived the battle at the sanitarium and found himself alone against Lucifer? Or, what if Lucifer resurrected him to continue to torment his fallen brother? Those were just a couple of the possibilities I had in mind when I did my submission piece (which I finished in basically a 2-day fever dream of inspiration. OK, that beard Misha was sporting for a few months helped, too...)

I'm glad that AvalonSilver decided to run with the piece and give us this story, which might be the first endverse Sastiel I've come across in my reading adventures in this fandom! Do check it out here (and I'll be back next week with some more for this event...)

Title: The Mortal Angel and The Devil's Prisoner Author: AvalonSilver (@avalonsilver) Artist: sidewinder (@hawkland) Rating: Teen Warnings: n/a Tags: Angst, Tragedy, Imprisoned Castiel, Hallucinations, Rescue Word count: 7,736 Featured characters: Endverse Castiel, Endverse Sam Winchester, Endverse Lucifer Featured relationships: Castiel/Sam Winchester, Castiel & Sam Winchester

Summary: In the apocalyptic version of 2014 that Zachariah once sent Dean to, Lucifer has resurrected an angel. Following his return from the dead, Castiel now lives as Lucifer’s prisoner.

Fortunately, hope grows within Castiel despite his captivity. He decides to save Sam following a worrying message from the younger Winchester.

Dean is dead, but Castiel can't let go of the chance to free Sam from the suffocating chains of possession.

It’s a wild plan to challenge an all-powerful Archangel. Cas is comparatively weaker in power, but he believes it's a risk worth taking.

Title: To Play The Part Author: QuicksilverCastiel (@michaelmilligan) Artist: bakh_meliorism (@bakh-meliorism) Rating: Teen Warnings: n/a Tags: Joseph and his family are side characters, This is a horror story in a way, But also one about friendship, And trust and hope, No relationship here my girl is a virgin, And like fourteen Word count: 22,816 Featured characters: Mary Mother of Jesus | Maryam bint Imran, Joseph of Nazareth, Raphael (Supernatural), Michael (Supernatural), Featured relationships: n/a

Summary: Mary has been living in The Temple for as long as she can remember. Then, suddenly, she is forced to live with a man she doesn't know, and who is old enough to be her grandfather. Things only get worse when an angel appears to her to announce that she is pregnant with a future king of the people

Title: The Angel Next Door (and the Zombie Squirrel) Author: FriendofCarlotta (@friendofcarlotta) Artist: jollyrolls (@jollyrolls) Rating: Explicit Warnings: No archive warnings apply Tags: Modern AU, Angel Cas, Fluff and Crack, Romantic Comedy, Dead Squirrel (or is it?) Word count: 9,264 Featured characters: Dean Winchester, Castiel, Sam Winchester Featured relationships: Castiel/Dean Winchester Summary: Dean’s life is fine. He might get a little lonely sometimes, but that’s to be expected when you’re a single guy in your forties. But then a new neighbor moves in next door — an extremely hot, blue-eyed neighbor who seems to be some kind of magnet for bizarre and miraculous events. (Listen, that squirrel was dead. Dean’s sure of it.)

Will Dean solve the mystery of the man next door?
