AU Story – Hurt Sam (17) / Big Brother Dean (21) / Likeable John / Awesome Bobby – It's one of Dean's worst nightmares: his little brother trapped in a burning car.

Sam's organs start to shut down one by one after the trials and, instead of being in a coma, he is aware and in agony. Dean is trying to be there for his brother but that means he must watch helplessly from the sidelines. Basically, the extreme Sam whump that season 9 never gave us. Inspired by a prompt on LJ's Oh Sam Birthday Fix-it Fest.

Post-Red Meat. The hours hadn't been any kinder to his brother than they'd been to Sam. Dean looked sick. And not just the "my brother got shot and is bleeding on the floor in front of me" kind of sick. As they try to put each other back together, Sam learns something about his brother's past he never knew. There are more pieces to pick up than either of them realized.

S7, post-Born Again Identity. He'd been expecting Sam to crash for about a month. What he hadn't been expecting was Sam not crashing right away. What he should have been prepared for, but found himself completely surprised by, was the withdrawal and emotional fallout. The boys slowly pick up the pieces, and get some unexpected help along the way from friends: Tommy and Arla Pender.

[Stand Still and Breathe 'verse]: Twenty-one days. Twenty-one days since it all went to hell for Sam, Dean and Cas. And if all this was bad, it doesn't look like the worst is over yet. After a horrible twenty-second day, Sam's having a bad night too, and it's not bad just for him. (Gen, very ill Sam, references to a potentially fatal sickness).

After John's death, Dean makes the mistake of rushing into a hunt and Sam pays the price.
