"Sam tells him in the driest dirthole of their freakshow of a summer, Gila Bend, AZ. "Where solar panels outnumber people." Hilarious. It's 105 and sunny, clashing with Sam's general idea of a werewolf case so hard he just wants to let that monster stay out here if it so wishes, let it burn down to embers under this desert fireball."

Sixteen-year-old Sam Wesson is too jaded to feel anything other than hate for his world, but Dean Winchester changes his mind. They both come from a place that only survivors understand, where Sam's bruises give him strength and the yawning gap in Dean's heart is the force that drives him forward. Together, they may just find hope again. [High school AU]

The morning after, Sam has something important to tell, but Dean can be a little difficult when he is afraid. Ticklish spots and kisses are exploited.

Sam and Dean spend their fifth Christmas as a couple in Sioux Falls. Sam has a revelation, Dean receives a gift, and New Year's resolutions are made. (Timestamp, eight months after my other story, Paper birds)

In which Sam doesn't die when Jake stabs him in the back in All Hell Breaks Loose 1- but he doesn't quite survive it either. "It's PVS. Persistent vegetative state.

But he knows better."

Sam and Dean Winchester are well-known amongst the people working in the local childcare system. They are notoriously troubled with a load of psychological issues that makes arranging their foster care its own kind of hellish task. With no living relatives left, they have little hope to ever make it out of the grinder. Then they meet Jody Mills.

Dean!sperm and Sam!sperm meet due to a mix-up. It's a match made in heaven.
