Title: It’s a Dog’s Life
Genre: SPN Gen
Rating: R (see warnings)
Warnings: Swearing and one M/M dub con scene (Brady and an OMC), canon character death
Word count: 20700
Written for  spn_gen_bigbang 2013
Summary: Set in 2005. After finishing the voodoo job in New Orleans, Dean’s supposed to contact John to get new instructions for his next hunt, but instead decides to detour to Stanford to check up on Sam.  On arriving in Palo Alto, Dean stumbles on a case. Unluckily, he is cursed by the witch when he ganks her and is turned into a dog.
Being adopted by Sam and Jess seems like a stroke of good fortune, but as all hunters know, there is no such thing as blind luck.

Author’s note and acknowledgements: A massive thank you to my super-talented artist odysseaia for making me such lovely, lovely pictures!  They are perfect in every way, and I was so lucky she chose my story!  Go over to her ART MASTERPOST and tell her how gorgeous these illustrations are.
Equally I need to thank my two awesome betas - adrenalineshots and reapertownusa .  Ladies, you are stars.  You helped me get this tale into shape, and any errors, cockups etc are now all my responsibility (dammit!).  Like my total failure to find out why this effing text won't all show in the same font and the same size like the HTML seems to be saying it should.  Gah!!!
Finally, a humungous thank you to reapertownusa for putting this Big Bang together.  Folk who administer/mod these communities and set up the fun challenges like this one are all heroes in my view.  You will be rewarded in your version of Heaven, babe (though we have to hope the Winchesters will have had time to tidy things up there before we have to sample its delights!).

Throwback Thursday: Dean H/C Highlights from 3x14 "Long Distance Call"

[kalliel]

Welcome back to Throwback Thursdays! I've had a request for 3x14, "Long Distance Call", wherein Sam and Dean are increasingly desperately trying to find a way to wrangle Dean out of Hell's increasingly inevitable grasp. It is, again, not an episode that comes up a whole lot on rewatch; but I think the episode gets a bad rap for being "bad" because it's a MotW episode that just happens to be placed at the end of the season--having just rewatched it, I can tell you that actually, it's an awesome episode! And not even just because there are not one, but TWO great shots of bloodied!bondage wrists in it. (Alas they are Sam's wrists, do I didn't include them here, but trust me, worth the rewatch for that alone. Also, Sam's hair.)

3x14 Dean H/C highlights include:

sweaty!Dean, bruised!face!Dean, daddy issues, panicked!Dean, insomnia!Dean, Dean falling back on blind faith, probably the longest fight scene this show has ever had (excepting possibly Sam vs. shapeshifter!Dean in 1x06), concerned!pre-Hell Dean, Dean having a guilty phone conversation with John, Sam and Dean sharing a moment of tense solidarity in a motel room. I think Dean/hope is probably one of the most tragic ships to ever ship--and that's saying a lot in this fandom.

In Milan, Ohio, people are receiving calls from their dearly departed. Dean gets a call from his father:

To put this scene in perspective, I think it's generative to note that the first time Dean calls John, in 1x09 "Home," it's because he and Sam have returned to the original site of hell and trauma, their home in Lawrence. When Dean receives his call in 3x14, he's about a month out from the eternal trauma of Hell itself.

Um, ouch.

( Winchesters/Communication UST -- Well they or won't they? )

Enjoy! Pull up a chair, drop a line… and if you've got an episode you'd like to throw back to, don't hesitate to ask! <3

A Brief Encouter of the H/C Kind (1/1), NC-17, Dean Winchester/John Sheppard

[sasha-dragon.livejournal.com]

Title: A Brief Encounter of the H/C Kind
Word Count: 10530   (Let’s not talk about it)
Rating: NC-17
Summary: Dean wakes up battered and bleeding in a cell, but he’s not alone.  Colonel John Sheppard of SGA 1 is there as well, the two of them are being pursued by the most heinous force in the universe - H/C writing Fan Girls. Just how far will John go to ease Dean’s pain?
Pairing: Dean Winchester/John Sheppard
Disclaimer: I promise I own neither shows nor men in this story, although if there is a rental option I wouldn’t mind a long-term lease on Dean, and I’d happily rent John for a few months as well.
Warnings: None, except for my usual Dean and punctuation abuse (thank you bigj52, for sorting out the punctuation.  I’m afraid Dean’s on his own). Also this is a loose sequel to my fic Damn H/C Writers. You don’t have to read it for this to make sense but it will help understand the insanity a little *G*.
Notes: As always my eternal thanks go to my unflinching beta bigj52 (unflinching because she sorts out this mess before you guys see it), a woman to whom statues really should be erected. I wrote this particular tale as a birthday present for wings128, and I hope one day she forgives me for it being late and she also forgives me for mangling the character of her beloved John Sheppard.  As always feedback is cuddled and feed lots of chocolate *G*.
