we shall meet but we shall miss him by

calamitycrow
Author's notes/summary: PG-13. Dean and John, Stanford-era gen.

Reccer’s notes:

rei17 says: It has cold!sick!Dean and John, who is not an ass, but a father. Both are missing Sam in a way that's really bittersweet and aching and they totally don't talk about it, because they're Winchesters. Except they totally do, because they're family. A really beautiful one-shot.

Swing Low by

sevenfists
Author's notes/summary: What's dead should stay dead. Post-AHBL. PG-13, gen.

Reccer’s notes:

maypoles says: Dean starts dying ahead of schedule and Sam doesn't deal very well. Sick!Dean and crazy!protective!!Sam. I lovelovelove this fic and the idea behind it. The lengths the brothers will go to for each other is illustrated starkly here - it's one of the reasons why we love their relationship, but there's also something dangerous about it. An unsettling and chilling read, but an AWESOME one.

Something Golden (Conversations from the End) by

tru_faith_lost
Author’s notes/summary: In the end, Dean and Sam take on Hell together, and when it falls, they climb out together, worse for wear, but whole, which is more than can be said for the rest of the world. The landscape's marred, sepia-toned with black clouds above, no sun, no moon, winter, or spring, just the endless road and red-lightning overhead. But it's all theirs... R, Sam/Dean.

Reccer’s notes:

maypoles says: This fic totally belongs in my post-apocalyptic rec post from awhile ago, but I just discovered it! Written for

spn_j2_bigbang a few years ago, it’s obviously very well-thought out and it shows. It’s very well-executed in turn, resulting in a thought-provoking, multilayered story. I especially appreciated Sam and Dean’s relationship here, how the complex weight of their shared history didn’t fall to the wayside the way I feel like it does in some Sam/Dean fics. A haunting and beautiful fic.

Howl by

twotiming
Author’s notes/summary: "Did it get you? Dean!" Sam's voice sounds low and distant, after the sharp crack of the gunshot and the thud of a body hitting the warehouse floor. Something clatters to the floor and suddenly Sam's dinnerplate hands are on his shoulders, pulling up him and dammit, that floor was pretty comfortable, at least moreso than the shrieking pain in his shoulder. No spoilers. Hard R, Sam/Dean.

Reccer’s notes: An anon says: Dean gets bitten by a werewolf! There’s much desperation, though the fic as a whole is brilliantly understated. What I like the most about this is how there’s this underlying feeling that Sam and Dean have been through everything, and they can just maybe get through this too.
