a trio of lyrical fic recs (gen, Dean/Sam, and a dash of Dean/OMC)

These are three stories – two new and one new to me – that I’ve read recently that are lyrically written. Beauuuutiful stuff.

Title: A Hole In The World
Author: honeylocusttree
Tags: hell/post-hell issues, hospitalization (psychiatric), mental illness, PTSD
Characters: Dean, OFC
Genre/pairing: Gen
Rating: PG
Word-count: 4000+
Spoilers: Season 4
Warnings: Tense shifts, weirdness.
Summary: S4 AU of post-Hell Dean, traumatized to the point of non-functionality.
Reccer’s comments: honeylocusttree is a fairly new writer in this fandom, and I’m so glad we have her. Her writing is dark and inventive and crisp. This particular fic features one of the best OCs I’ve read recently - her POV is so cool, very surreal. A thought-provoking piece.

Title: be with me when the horses run until they forget they are horses
Author: micalaux
Tags: dub-con, prostitution
Genre/pairing: Dean/OMC, Sam/Dean. Pre-series.
Rating: R
Word-count: 4,060
Warnings: dubious consent
Summary: Dean will do anything to make sure that Sam has what he needs.
Reccer’s comments: Vibrantly written, this is a gorgeous, achy look at the trope of hooker!Dean.

Title: if they send the wolves, I’ll join the wolves
Author: paxlux @ huntersarchives
Tags: blood-loss, psychological issues, self harm, substance abuse (alcohol)
Genre/pairing: Sam/Dean
Rating: R
Word-count: 4,094
Spoilers: AU after Season 5.
Summary: Like all good fairy tales, there are rules.
Reccer’s comments: A story about the extreme lengths Dean and Sam will go to for each other. The concept behind this one is horrific but also beautiful. I love the quiet vibe it has going on. It’s almost spell-like; it kept me completely transfixed.
