Title: Where the Shadows Lie
Author: JALover7
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: Sam+Dean gen
Spoilers: 7.23 “Survival of the Fittest”
Genre: angst, hurt/comfort
Disclaimer: Supernatural isn’t mine, but you already know that.
Summary: Coda to the season 7 finale, so major spoilers. In his quest to rescue Dean from Purgatory, Sam gets help from an unexpected source, and something that’s been missing for a long time comes back. Multiple chapters.

AN: Starts off with Sam angst, but Dean's in freakin' Purgatory, so you know he's gonna come out needing some TLC.
This idea came to me on my way to work the other day (luckily I take the train to work so I had some time to write it all down). Like most of the things I write, it came on quick and it came on strong. It begged to be written and I love what I have so far. I've read many good "Sam rescues Dean from Purgatory" fics, but I don't think anyone's done something quite like this yet.

(Chapter One: Don't Leave Me Here Alone)

Sam helps Dean and Cas with the aftermath of purgatory. A little time has passed and Sam had some time to figure out Dean. After a little breakfast date, Sam gets an idea on what to do with the two men who are to old and weak for hunting.

Authors note:

This is a sequel to my story remember, who we are. This is for all you nice readers on LiveJournal and Fanfiction.net who have chearleaded for it! This one took me a while to hatch out, but here we are! Of course, you need to read remember first to understand this fic. Remember is a coda to 7.23 that was written for the season 7 finale meme hosted by mad_server. This story is set three months after 7.23.

The things I wrote about the chubacabra are totally made up by me. The one dialog written in italics is spoken in Enochian. And I have no idea how long it takes to recover from malnutrition. My apologies if it's a little unrealistic.

And on a random note: I still have ideas for this trope. Ohmychuck, I didn't plan on writing a 7.23 coda at all, and now this might be turning into a verse! Maybe. If you reviewers think it's good enough to continue. My muse feels tired and empty right now.

Ps. the tags in this comm make this story seem much worse than it is!
