Got recs?

You can make your own rec post at any time, or submit any recs you may have to be posted by a mod in a monthly post like this one. Find out how HERE. (If a month is skipped for this, that's because there were no recs received that month. Sometimes we receive tons of recs per month, sometimes less.) Send us your faves, pretty please. <333

Reccer: anonymous

Title: Hurt
Author: LeoArcana @ AO3

Genre/pairing: Castiel/Dean for future chapters
Rating: PG-13
Word-count: n/a
Spoilers: n/a
Warnings: n/a
Summary: Ezekiel said Cas had to go. He didn't say where or that Dean had to be happy about it and Dean certainly wasn't happy, if the amount of alcohol he was drinking was anything to go by. At first it had been just because Cas was gone, but now it seemed to be the only thing to alleviate the physical pain. He's not sure what's wrong, but, Dean being Dean, he tries to keep it to himself. Until it lands him in the ER, where the situation goes from bad to worse.

Reccer’s comments: I haven't seen season 9 yet and I am pretending it will be just like this. The mystery pulls you in and I just love how protective everyone is of Dean, of course.

Summary: When Dean goes missing on a hunt in New Orleans, John picks Sam up from Stanford to help look for him. (Pilot AU)
Reccer: anonymous
Reccer’s comments: It's a pilot!AU, wherein Dean goes missing and John goes to get Sam from Stanford. I have never seen this one recced here, why not I really don't know because it's gorgeous. So much hurt!Dean (with a generous side-order of hurt!Sam too, but mainly Dean), and traumatised!Dean, and protectiveness and... yeah, I could keep going for a while. The link is to the first fic in the verse, but if you go to the author's journal there is a load of tag-fics and they have just started posting a new multi-chapter in the verse, which gets updated on Sundays.

Recs: Dean Winchester's heart. AU: Episode "Faith" 1x12

[likiel.livejournal.com]

Two recs under the theme of Dean's heart, metaphorically and literally speaking. Alternative Universe following episode 1x12 "Faith.


Title: In Reverse
Author: Sodakey
Tags: Heart-Condition, illness, Hospitalization, pain
Characters: Dean Winchester, Sam Winchester, OCs, John Winchester (Flash-Back)
Genre/pairing: None
Rating: T
Word-count: 148.382
Spoilers: Season one, Episode "Faith"
Warnings: Hurt!Sam in some parts.
Summary: After Faith, a job has the boys looking for missing hikers in Wyoming. While Sam worries it’s connected to what happened to Dean ten years ago, Dean wonders if Sam would be better off back in the world of normal.

Reccer’s comments: I think most of our fandom know this one, but if you don't go, run read it. There is no word to describe the author's incredible work here. Hurt!Dean, Overprotective-yet-oblivious!Sam, a bunch of Sam's old college friends who don't like Dean at all, and a vulnerable!Dean who is still the BAMF that we know and love. A Must Read if I ever know one.

Title: Heart To Heart
Author: wave_obscura
Tags: Heart-Condition, Heart stroke, illness, Drugs reactions, Hospitalization, pain, heart condition, panic attack.
Characters: Dean Winchester, Sam Winchester, Bobby Singer
Genre/pairing: None
Rating: R
Word-count: 30.375
Spoilers: Season two, Episode "Faith"
Warnings: Disturbing scenes.
Summary: After the electrocution, Dean suffers some very painful permanent damage. Crappy circumstances leave the boys broke and desperate; Sam does what he’s gotta do to take care of his brother.
Reccer’s comments: Oh Dear God. This fic left me... breathless and seriously disturbed. It's a mix of horror, despair and love. Sam's desperation to save Dean and Dean's horrible, horrible symptoms... God, apart from "In Reverse" by Sodakey, I cannot imagine a better aftermath of the episode "Faith". One of the best Hurt!Dean I have ever read. it's also worth-shivering the way Sam loves Dean in this fic. The way he keep doing bad, bad things to save his brother. Superb work.
