Summary:
Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose have been best friends since that day in the sixth grade when Roman jumped into an uneven fight on Dean's side. For Dean, the warm, close-knit Reigns clan is everything a family should be. Everything his own wasn't.

Now, Roman and his family are facing difficult times in the wake of patriarch Joseph Reigns's sudden, fatal heart attack, and Dean is right by Roman's side when he comes home to Cincinnati for the first Christmas without Pop. When Dean learns a secret about his own family that Joe had kept for years, Roman's there for him to lean on in turn.

In helping each other deal, they also come to realize that somewhere along the line they've become more than best friends.

Warnings: None
Characters: Roman Reigns, Dean Ambrose, various OCs and cameos
Pairings: Roman Reigns/Dean Ambrose

When I Started: I started thinking about Unconventional Courtship in February 2015, though I knew I write too slowly to get in on that year's round of the fest.  TBH, I also knew that the fic would be the longest thing I'd ever finished, and kind of psyched myself out about it, so didn't start committing actual words until October 2015.
How I Finished My Shit: WIP!BB's deadlines (and the promise of shiny art if I didn't flake out and let myself drop out!) were good for keeping myself from abandoning it to write quicker things, especially when I'd written all the big emotional scenes and had to go back to do all the less immediately exciting bits to tie them together.
