Dean/Castiel
From Super-wiki
Dean: Don't normally see you off leash. Where's your boss?
Uriel: Castiel? Oh he's, he's not here. You see he has this weakness, he likes you.
Castiel stares intently at Dean in silence
Dean: Cas, the last time someone gave me that look-I got laid.
Dean/Castiel slash fanfiction pairs the characters Dean Winchester and Castiel in a romantic or sexual relationship.
Brief Overview
From Castiel's first appearance in 4.01 Lazarus Rising, fandom saw the on-screen intensity between Dean Winchester and Castiel and took it further. It soon became a very popular pairing, with the first Dean/Castiel LiveJournal community appearing on 19th September 2008, the day after "Lazarus Rising" first aired, and growing to over 1000 members within the first four months. In March 2010 the community had 3196 members.
The pairing soon became an OTP and this has led to occasional Shipping wars with people for whom Sam/Dean is their OTP
Int he tradition of fandom making "mashup" pairing names, Dean/Castiel is sometimes referred to as Destiel or Dastiel.
Following fans mentioning fanfic and Dean/Castiel Slash, Misha Collins has mentioned Slash at a number of conventions - eg: at the Salute to Supernatural Vancouver 2009 where he said he'd heard about "Dean/Castiel/Pie fic" and at Collectormania London 2009 he said he had read some slash fanfic but "stopped at the part where Cas choked... on someone's cock" Source.
