    Tuesday: Real Person Fiction
    29 Days
    ashtraythief | NC-17 | Jared/Jensen | Warnings: vampires, werewolves, graphic depiction of violence, minor character death, blood drinking, derogatory language towards vampires and werewolves, dubious consent of the fuck-or-die nature, knotting.

    Summary: Twenty-Nine days stuck in ninety square feet would have been bad enough in itself, but that was before Jensen realized he had to share the cell with a werewolf. Despite being natural enemies, he and Jared have to find a way to work together to escape a group of hunters.

    Reccer's notes: Who knew someone could write a story about a vampire and a werewolf and make it simultaneously suspenseful, sexy, hilarous, intense, violent, and sweet? A truely great piece of work.

    Tuesday: Real Person Fiction
    Keeping Company
    tabaqui | Adult | No warnings
    Jared is a photographer of the rich, wanna-be-famous, and privileged of New York. Jensen seems to date a lot of them. A not-what-you-were-expecting kinda escort fic.
    Reccer's notes: A great read! Clever, hot, and laugh-out-loud funny.


    Stranded in Motion
    tebtosca | NC-17 | Permanent injury (amputation), PTSD, panic attacks, flashbacks to war
    After a roadside bombing leaves his life in tatters, Private Jared Padalecki finds hope for a new future in a Texas hospital.
    Reccer's notes: Gorgeous art, gorgeous story. Sweet and lovely and heart-wrenching.

    Friday- Arts, Vids, Misc.
    Climbing Mountains Lying Down
    badbastion | PG | clothed men kissing.
    urtain!art: Castiel loves his practical, comfortable pajamas almost as much as he loves Sam. Small Sam/Cas ficlet also.
    Beautiful use of light and shadow conveys a peaceful moment.

    Tracking Aeroplanes
    graphicinmotion (AKA Loki or secretlytodream) | PG for Show level violence | Spoilers through 10.23
    Summary from author's notes: "So, at first I just wanted to make a general season finale video but somewhere along the way it turned into some kind of promo video for Jared's "Always keep fighting" campaign haha
    Seriously though, together they're stronger than apart, no man is an island, so whatever you're going through that seems too hard or impossible to bear, just share it with somebody and ask for help."
    Watching this made me realize why season 10 felt so much like earlier seasons that we all know and love; a return to what is at the core of the show.

    Shut up Dean, It's Good for You
    cassiopeia7 | G |
    Long-suffering Sam presenting rabbit-friendly takeout to a skeptical bunny!Dean.
    I have to admit, I'm partial to all versions of bunny!Dean, but to me, it's Sam's face that really makes this piece. His body looks so relaxed... it tickles me that Dean had to be be a bunny for Sam to be able to experience that.

    Sleepy Sammy
    sammycolt24 | PG | Partial sleeping nudity.
    Dean thinks Sam is just so cute when he's sleeping, but Sam is too out of it to believe him..
    The texture in this drawing gives it a very palpable feel. You could almost reach in and run your fingers through Sam's hair, or feel the fever burning off his skin.

    Ain't no Saint
    becc_j | G | Spoiler for 10.23.
    Black and white digital painting, Dean with prop from 10.23.
    Perfectly captures the spirit of Dean in 10.23.

    Laugh, I Nearly Died
    alethiometry | G |
    Digital manipulationof photos, shattered Sam and Jess.
    Beautiful portraits of Sam and Jess, and the turorial that accompanies the entry really shows how much work and attention to detail went into creating them.

    Never Too Heavy
    yuriookino | G |
    In About a Boy Sam is de-aged as well, Dean finds himself in a even more insane situation as his younger self tries to keep Sam safe when he's so little.
    Deans. Face.

    In a Fix
    afattribble | NC-17| This fic is rated NC-17 for explicit sexual content and moderate violence that I consider on par with the show.
    Dean Smith is a 'fixer' for hire. He has kept his real name a secret from the hunter community for years in order to protect a younger brother that doesn't even know he exists. Unfortunately, that lasts until he's blackmailed into taking a job with the Moore family, who give him a week in their estate to break up their daughter's engagement to some no-name law student.
    It was impossible to stop reading this. A fabulous AU Sam and Dean reunion fic. Great writing and excellent characterizations.

    Sex Tape
    ash_carpenter | NC17| Sam/Dean
    Summary. Sam and Dean make a sex tape! They're not as good at it as Dean seems to think.
    The anti-kink series is a fandom classic, and this installment has the same delicious mix of hysterically funny and ridiculously hot that only Sam and Dean could pull off.

    The Princess and the Memory Foam
    blackrabbit42 | R| Sam/Dean
    Summary. She has one job... to give Dean a good night's sleep. But when she learns that the sweet embrace of her memory foam isn't enough, the Mattress has a few other tricks up her sleeve.
    The author manages to create a memorable character out of a mattress, who then provides a unique and heartwarming perspective on her owners, Sam and Dean.

    Sun in My Mouth
    cydsa | NC-17 | Warnings: Language, sibling incest, demons, angels, magic, sexual situations, Bottom!Dean
    Summary: Three years after Sam loses his brother to Hell, he discovers that Dean has been sent topside. Sam has made some compromises to find Dean. Just how far he’s gone, just how much he’s done, well, Dean is probably going to be pissed. Once Sam gets Dean back, he isn’t planning on losing him again. No matter what he has to do. Never again.
    A beautiful representation of the boys' relationship and an amazing and original alternative resolution to the Mark of Cain problem. A really great read.

    Friday- Art, Vids, Misc. Big Bang Edition
    Art for Mind, Body, Soul
    sammycolt24 | R | warnings for chair!sex with some naughty bits showing
    Line drawing illustration for a/b/o fic. Jared/Jensen
    These line drawings are so sensual, it seems like you could reach out and slide your hand under the curve of Jared's back, or trace your fingers down his upturned throat.

    Art for Life Is....
    paperbackwriter | G |
    Line drawing illustration and animated banner for Jensen/Jared/Misha.
    The artist conveyed so much feeling into the objects she chose to illustrate, and the animation will knock your heart for a loop. Also.. Hand. Drawn. Text.


    Art for Astantine
    necrora | PG | boy kissing and nude (?) aliens.
    Digital art, Sci-fi
    The art itself is beautiful, but I love, love love the alien design sheets.


    Art for The Song of the Ravens
    amberdreams | PG | boy kissing
    Digital pencil sketches for destiel story. Celtic themes.
    This is the kind of artist every author hopes for. Not only is her work imaginative and stunning, but there's so much of it!


    Art for Between Darkness and Light
    chomaisky | G | Dark themes
    Digital drawing for sam/dean horror story based on The Crow .
    It's amazing how many shivers this artist produced with so few colors. You look at this art and you have no doubt what the story will be like in mood and tone.


    Art for The Debts You'll Never Pay
    dun | G | Anatomically correct depiction of human heart
    Traditional drawing and digitally colored illustrations for castiel/claire story.
    Even if this pairing is not your cup of tea, please check out the art. The drawings are imaginative and powerful, just an incredible amount of talent here. This is the second big bang entry by this artist, please take a moment to scroll through her journal and see the first as well. Both are just amazing!


    Art for Deja Vu
    riverofwind | G | Flashing image
    Digital drawing and animated gif for sci-fi story loosely based on Total Recall.
    I love the polished animation style of this artist. The gif is fantastic... if you look at it, you can see that the changes from one frame to the next are actually quite minimal, but the coloring and tone are in stark contrast. Also- Sam with a gatling gun and thigh holster? Who can resist?

    Compiler's note- my apologies to all these lovely artists... your art is so amazing, and I lacked the words tonight to adequately describe your works in my summaries. To everyone else- please just click and see for yourselves. The talent in this fandom is staggering.

    Monday: General Fiction
    Measure My Life in Coffee Cups
    kcscribbler | PG-13| Vague spoilers for entire series, and specifically Season 10 (more specifically Soul Survivor).
    Summary: Ten chronological snapshots, measured by ten significant cups of coffee in Sam Winchester's life.
    Reccer's notes: A really beautifully crafted story illustrating key moments in their history that illuminate their deep brotherly bond. With the bonus of some really hilarious lines.


    Adventures in Deansitting
    zelda_addict | PG for a little language | Author's warnings: "Um... Up to present but vague? Seriously, Im not sure exactly where this would fall continuity-wise, but definitely at least Season 9 or 10 for references. I dont think I give away anything devastating, though."
    Summary: After an accident involving a witch and some transformation potions, Dean is in need of constant supervision (but what else is new), Sam has to get a little more in touch with his feminine side, and both brothers are in over their heads.
    Reccer's notes: Who can resist baby!Dean fic? This is clever, funny, and brings something fresh to the transformation trope.

    Rainbowraffes
    riverofwind | G |
    J2 giraffes holding a rainbow flag.
    A sweet way to commemorate this historic day. Love won.

    Viking!Jared
    becc_j | G | No warnings.
    Full painting of Jared as a Viking.
    The palette really defines the mood of this painting so well, and the light and shadow are subtle enough not to be distracting, but really add depth. Also... Jared in a man-bun.


    Take These Off
    badbastion | R | half-dressed, clothed erection, wincest cuddling, sexy times in the back of the Impala, pre-Stanford; Sam is about 18.
    It's hot and humid, and Sam's this close to being naked. Dean needs him to take the final step.Digital drawing.
    The more I look at this pic, the more details I see. Very nicely captures an expectant snapshot of the scene.

    J2 2048
    smalltroven | PG? For knee fondling? | Warning- you will become an addict.
    Like the game 2048, only instead of combining number tiles, you combine J2 gifs.
    I've never recc'd anything like this before. I've never SEEN anything like this before. I am completely addicted to puzzle games like 2048, and this just took my addiction and amplified it by j2-thousand times. Their dumb-ass faces in the second tile are cracking me up to no end.

    Art for Soundproof Box
    ar_richardson | Art= PG for slight gore, fic = NC17 | Slight gore (blood)
    Mulitmedia illustration.
    This is a new artist for me, and I love how the artist pulled together different techniques for the finished piece. Will definitely be following ar_richardson from now on.

    Tuesday: Real Person Fiction
    [well, it's still Tuesday in ~my timezone. ;) ]

    Real Slow
    deirdre_c | NC-17 | No warnings.
    Summary: The stripteasing on stage at conventions is a joke, until Jensen gets drunk and sends a private video to Jared. Then its not so funny anymore.
    Reccer's notes: This an interesting mix of RPF and AU, which will be acceptable, I think, to those readers who aren't fond of RPF. Though how anyone could resist this story is beyond me. The author manages to deliver humor, angst, schmoop, and really hot sex -- all under 11K words. An amazing story and one that I know I'll be reading again.

    Thursday - Het and Other Slash
    You Best Believe I'm Yours
    wincechesters | PG-13 | Siobhan/Kristen, mentions of Dean/Cas, Spoilers through 10x05
    Kristen's mom would probably kill her for wasting energy on something like the school musical when she should be working on bringing her grades up and applying for colleges, but she just had to audition when she found out they were performing Supernatural for the musical this year. When she gets the part of Castiel, a character she identifies with more strongly than any other, she's never been happieruntil she discovers that the actor playing Dean Winchester is none other than Siobhan, the girl shes had a crush on for two years.
    We saw these two together in canon but only glimpses. This fic explores how they got together in the first place. Part of the spnfemminibang.

    Extraordinaire
    holyhael | PG-13 | Claire Novak/Hael, part of the spnfemminibang
    She doesnt hear the womans footsteps, but the next thing Hael knows, the curtain is pulled back by a tall woman in patterned scrubs. Her eyes - burning, familiar - transfix Hael, and she knows.
    Youre not a nurse, Hael says.
    The woman sort of smirks. And youre not a human. Not really.
    An interesting alternate take on what has become of Claire since S4 and how both she and Hael find the beginnings of healing together.
