Summary
Though Ronan could not be called well-behaved, he was at his most serious and restrained when he felt like God was watching. What a thrill it was, then, to have him panting and hard in the chapel, where God or anyone else might see.
"You do get off on this," Adam said, barely a whisper. "That's hot, Ronan."
The specifics of desire had never brought Adam much trouble, whether it was girls, boys, whatever. But he was discovering that the ways in which he wanted Ronan often filled him with an unfamiliar shame. He'd found that he did not simply want Ronan in ways that seemed tender or loving. He also wanted him in ways that scared him, that would probably scare Ronan.
or: The summer before he leaves for college, Adam starts going to Mass. Ronan avoids an old ghost. They discover a shared interest.

Summary
"I like it," Adam said. He threaded his hand through Ronan's hair. Once he had a good grip, he tugged.
Ronan lurched in Adam's lap, eyes closing as his head tipped back. "Fuck."
He watched Ronan's face pinken, nearly as pink as his mouth. Adam could only think of Ronan's clothes coming off, the rest of his body turning that same shade. A grin spread across his face.
"I really like it," he said.
or: After stopping the apocalypse, Ronan and Adam spend the night in Boston. Adam discovers that Ronan's hair grew while he slept. They make up for lost time.

Summary
It was simple. Ronan didn't like Adam living somewhere that wasn't the Barns, or St. Agnes, or Ronan's car or Ronan's bed. Homes that were within Ronan's reach, in one way or another.
Adam had looked two-toned all summer, studying glossy Harvard brochures and less glossy tuition and fee statements, oscillating between pre-disappointed and anticipatory. Suspended in something—in what, Ronan hadn't really known.
"I'm trying to be less pessimistic," Adam had said repeatedly. Something about embarking on a new chapter of his life.
He never smiled as he said it, and it always sounded like a lie, the kind that charmed Ronan in its familiar cynicism. Ronan felt like he was more honest in his fear of what came next. That was very different from speaking it aloud.
--
or: Ronan helps Adam move into his dorm.

Summary
“Okay,” Dean says, shoulders squaring like they’re going into some sort of battle. “So you’d—make the cut.”
“Yes.”
“And then the grace would come out of me.”
“Correct.”
Dean nods. He goes to one knee, then the next, kneeling in front of Castiel. Digging a pocket knife out of his front jeans pocket, Dean opens it up and flips it around handle-first, holding it out at the same time that he tilts his head for ear to meet shoulder, his neck bared.
Castiel’s mind suddenly goes very blank, with a ringing in his ears.
“Well?” Dean asks, his voice only slightly shaking. “You waitin’ for a written invitation?”
-----After the possession, some of Michael's grace is still in Dean. Castiel offers to help him out.

Summary
It's unfair, it's cruel, he wants to complain but instead he huffs and reaches up to undo the collar of his shirt for a bit more breathing room.
"Come back here," he whispers, voice wrecked. He can't even be sulky about it when it's all just his beloved's usual gentle attentiveness toward him.
