Dean's Not Fine

The Other Guys, Part 1 A Supernatural story by Milisa  @440MXS_wife The #SPNWishList fic and art challenge is rolling again! Thanks to Milisa, once again, you, the reader, become the star in an angsty, romantic tale of the AU!Winchesters, misunderstandings and life in the bunker. Enjoy!  -- Jennie GIF from SPN Canon GIFs on Tumblr You spent the weekend at Jody’s catching up with Donna, Charlie, Jody, and Eileen on a “Girls Only Weekend” in Sioux Falls. Facials and manicures were done, and the girls helped you put some golden highlights in your light chestnut hair.  “I’m telling ya, girlie, if this doesn’t turn Dean's head, nothing will,” Donna remarked. “Oh come on, Donna, let’s get real, shall we? I’d have to change a hell of a lot more than my hair for Dean to notice me," you stated. "Besides, he's so wrapped up in the current crisis with Chuck, I doubt he sees anything but that.” You added, softly: “Let alone realize if something about me had changed.”  You clea...

Normal Sucks A Supernatural story by Mich  @raiahome You've read Mich's  Tales from Baby ... now check out her second #SPNWishList masterpiece! Mich responded to the prompt: "Baby breaks down, from her POV."  In which Dean is pro-poutine. And anti-Canadian bacon. As I've said many times, no one speaks for this cranky old steel broad like Mich does. Enjoy. -- Jennie Baby tried to decide if she’d ever been more miserable in her life. Sure, she’d been possessed, T-boned by a semi, flipped on her roof by a demon cloud, and crashed through a big sign, but that was all part of the job. She was saving people and hunting things, so there was a certain satisfaction in it. Then there were the many months she spent hiding in a barn when those Leviathan dicks were hunting Sam and Dean. It had been necessary… and boring as hell. But she had attained a comforting level of zen at the time, so… silver lining, right? But this? This was just pathetic. First th...

Fathers and Son Reunion, or Three Men and a Nephilim A Supernatural poem by Doris  @doris_helmick Our first verse for the #SPNWishList fic and art challenge! Doris responded to the prompt: "Fathers and son reunion."  Enjoy! -- Jennie Fathers and sons, not always an easy alliance. Sometimes created in easy, joyful acceptance. But sometimes, it’s in realms where evil, trust often breaks, And families bear the bonds that love, in hardship, makes. Among Hunters, the innocent must be protected. Proof obtained, and a Nephilim child’s not rejected. Two men, one broken angel, an orphan without hope. A son, an innocent indeed, trust gained, love will cope. Time moves, training begins, laughter, a part of learning. Cases solved, fam’ly formed, Jack’s grace is slowly burning. The love of his fathers, Sam, Dean, and Cas: Jack does crave. Nephilim, thought so deadly, now holds a heart so brave. But Chuck, self-proclaimed writer of all men’s destiny, Has his secr...

Thirsty A Supernatural story by Niki  @SPNHellcat A new entry in the second wave of the #SPNWishList fic and art challenge! Niki responded to what I thought was the toughest prompt of all: "How did the Vampchesters ending come to be?" Imagine taking something so... inconceivable... and making sense of it. And then making the story so utterly chilling. When Niki said she would take this on, I was beyond excited. When I saw the results, I understood why. Enjoy. -- Jennie Sam woke with a start – pushing himself off the grungy floor to a half-sitting position. It was the light that pried his eyes open. And the smell. What was the smell? He looked around, confused to find himself in an old jail cell. Words were scrawled on the walls, and flecks of peeling paint littered the floor. There was no furniture. The only other thing in the room was her. He saw a woman face-down in the corner, and he immediately leaped to her side. He saw a pool of blood underneath her fa...

Can't Let Go A Supernatural story by Ariana  @arianaspn61497 A new entry in the second wave of the #SPNWishList fic and art challenge! Ariana is on a roll, responding to the prompt: "Dean worrying about leaving Sam and going to Purgatory."  Dean is  trying, but he's still programmed to look out for Sammy, no matter the cost. There are some beautiful turns of phrase in this story as we watch him struggle with that impulse. Plus, some bonus Cas feels. Enjoy!  -- Jennie Dean stares at Cas while his thoughts spin around in his head.  Can he really leave this Earth with Sam in trouble at the hands of Chuck?  Cas is right -- it is really important to get the ingredients for the spell. But for his whole life, Dean has gone after Sam.   His first memories are of his brother. The little baby who cooed and smiled at him. Sam would reach out his chubby fingers to wrap them around Dean’s finger.  The first time Sammy cooed at...

Sam and Chuck's Rubber Band A Supernatural story by Ariana  @arianaspn61497 One more entry in the #SPNWishList fic and art challenge! One wasn't enough for Ariana! She  responded to the prompt: "Sam and Chuck's wounds (and their link)." This story even dips a toe into the strange, cosmic relationship between Chuck and Amara. If you ask me, it's the key to everything. Enjoy!  -- Jennie GIF by Canon SPN GIFs on Tumblr Sam sits up in bed, his body covered in sweat, with a pounding headache.  He has not been sleeping well at all lately. He keeps having horrible nightmares. In them, Sam is killing Dean or Dean is killing Sam.  It is the very thing neither brother has ever wanted. They have fought against it for so long.  Could it be Sam’s depressed brain going over the worst scenarios as the world falls apart around them? Sam gets up and walks to his sink, splashing cold water on his face. He looks in the mirror at the bags under his eye...

Crowley Revisited A Supernatural story by Ariana  @arianaspn61497 Our latest entry in the #SPNWishList fic and art challenge! Ariana responded to the prompt: "Crowley meets Jack in the Empty." This is a great answer to a "What if?" kind of question... both characters sound so very authentic. When I got to the end, I felt like a kid listening to a bedtime story. You will definitely be left wanting more! -- Jennie Jack is so confused.  He saw Chuck snap his fingers and felt pain, then there was just darkness. Jack was prepared to die, because he knew Dean couldn’t get over Mary’s death. He understood why Dean wanted him dead, but he didn’t understand why Dean didn’t kill him. It all happened so fast when Chuck arrived. Something had been going on between the Winchesters and Chuck that Jack didn’t understand. Castiel was there too, and he tried to protect Jack. Now Jack was alone in what he assumed was the Empty. The entity there had wanted to take hi...

Don't You Cry No More A Supernatural story by Jennie  @DeanIsntFine The story that started with a (very) random tweet. Thank you, Season 15 Script Bot . Dedicated to Melissa , who never lets us forget that Dean Winchester matters. Here's one imagined ending to his epic journey. -- Jennie DEAN comes over, he hands DEAN a number of toy soldiers on a bed. — SEASON 15 SCRIPT (@spn_bot) November 25, 2019 The peace talks were progressing around the bunker's map table. Dean, sidelined like a weary general after a long and brutal campaign, watched the proceedings from a darkened corner of the war room. Chuck and Jack faced off across a chess board, while the negotiations' true players huddled at the far end of the table. Amara. Rowena. Cas. And Billie, who it turned out had always held all the cards. The uneasy truce was holding, and crucial details were being hammered out. Chuck and Jack, adversaries for now on the checkered field of the game board, eyed ...
