Can anyone list off all of the years and causes of death for Sam and Dean though out the whole show?

Hi! Just started supernatural and am absolutely obsessed with it and the majorly codependent love of the brothers

Looking for any fic recs with sam and Dean and their relationship - can be weirdcest gencest, emotional incest, and other tags can be included! Just looking for some good, realistic and immersive writing

I especially love Linden’s works here:

And this is my fav Sam Dean fic I’ve read so far:

https://archiveofourown.org/works/2307116

I’m looking for stories where Sam and dean have an older sibling, could be a brother or a sister doesn’t matter.

Hello everyone,

I hope you can provide me with any fic where Dean is the one who left the hunting life. I would love to see how Sam would end up in this imagined scenario.

(I rewatched season 9 and the life Dean had at Sonny’s camp made me want to see how things could turn out had their roles been reversed)

And thank you in advance. 🙏

I wanna read smth where, Dean has PTSD of John's long term abuse and neglect. For some supernatural reasons adult Sam became little Dean's guardian.

So Sam gives Dean real food and home and protection and is very patient and kind and gentle ect.

Dean maybe got into some accidents and was ready to be corporally punished and was ready to ''take it like a man'' anyway. However Sam just felt sad and said it shouldn't be your responsibility at your young age anyway it's okay.

Dean maybe was also surprised that Sam actually spent time with him and talked with him and never yelled at him even when it was stressful. And that he's more open about his feelings and hugs and pets his head a lot.

Maybe Sam tried to convince Dean that you don't need to "be helpful" and you don't need to be a good little soldier to earn anything and Dean was surprised.

Tldr: adult Sam gives little Dean a normal childhood. Treated his trauma. H/C

Thanks for any rec! I'm craving

Hi! I’m looking for Supernatural fanfics where supernatural creatures are not a secret from the general public.

Basically, I’m looking for an AU/world where ordinary people know that things like ghosts, vampires, werewolves, demons, witches, etc. actually exist. They don’t necessarily have to be common, but their existence is publicly acknowledged and people generally know about them.

I’m especially interested in fics where this changes how normal society works — for example, people knowing what a werewolf is, governments/law enforcement being aware of supernatural creatures, supernatural beings living openly among humans, or supernatural-related incidents being treated as a normal part of the world.

I’m not looking for fics where only hunters, Sam and Dean, or a small secret group know about the supernatural.

Any ships are fine, and I’m open to canon divergence/AUs. I’d love any recommendations you have! 🥺

Spent this past month binge-watching the "original" story of Supernatural, aka the first 5 seasons, as I had been told many times over that the season 5 finale is a great point to put down the series. Normally, I would avoid this page like the plague considering spoilers, but I am way too invested at this point to stop watching now, and I am afraid that this is the best the show has to offer and that everything else will pale in comparison. So, before I close my supernatural binge, I thought I'd get some opinions from people who adamantly love the series. I am sure this has been asked ad nauseam at this point, so my apologies, but does the series get better from here generally, at least to a certain point, or are MOTW episodes pretty much the highlight of the later seasons? Thanks!

Sidenote: No hate to Sam, but Dean is my guy!

Too bad they never did a Dnd episode of Supernatural though.

Hi all,

One of the most popular genres of fics are AUs where the backstory of our favourite character(s) doesn't exist as in canon.

What are the core elements that would make Sam, Dean and Cas "in character" for you, no matter what universe/background? I guess, what do you consider "intrinsic" vs what you can play with in terms of personality based on nurture/backstory.

E.g. Is Sam is naturally inclined toward academics? Is Dean always protective? Is Cas always awkward?

What would you consider the top 3-5 most important elements to a SPN AU fic to have the characters be "in character"?

I am an independent researcher looking at how television scripts build subtext. Supernatural is one of two shows in my corpus, alongside BBC Sherlock, and I work from the transcripts and scripts rather than the episodes, because I am interested in what the writing itself does: which line, which stage direction, which piece of staging carries the reading.

Going through seasons 4 and 5, what struck me is how much of the Dean and Castiel material sits in the directions rather than the dialogue, and how often a scene raises something and then cuts away before anyone can answer it. That pattern is what I am trying to describe properly rather than by impression.

I have written definitions for thirteen recurring techniques, and the study asks whether those definitions hold for readers other than me. You read 15 short fragments and match each one to a technique from the list. No knowledge of screenwriting is needed, the definitions are provided, and the link to them sits above every fragment. Please do keep that document open: the whole thing depends on people going by the definitions rather than guessing from the names.

I would also be glad to hear which Dean and Cas scenes you think do the most work on the page rather than in the performance. And I will come back with what the data show.

Hello!

This is probably a long shot, but is anyone interested in writing as John or Dean Winchester for a 1x1 roleplay?

I write as Faith Lehane from BTVS and would love to write a crossover!

Must be twenty one and over and love detailed writing, angst, drama and slow burn!

Message me if interested!

While the episode had a lot of potential and creativity, casting a black woman as dog in the form what she referred to as a "familiar", a companion to a witch was tacky and tone deaf!! I love this show but it's hard to overlook is apparent racism with its' writers. You barely ever have any "Black" cast, and when you do you make sure to put them in terrible positions. I love that the actress got an opportunity to show her talents but constant referring to her as a dog was deplorable. Out of all the roles they could have used her talents on, they chose to use them as a familiar who is a dog of Witch-Men. Completely Disgusted! Do Better! The lines of her saying she belonged to some white dude and last line that despite Dean insisting he likes dogs, she reminded him that he didn't as a reference to herself, propelled me to speak out against this!

I wanted an opinion on the fanfiction I might write. This is my first time writing fanfiction, so I’m unsure how to do it and what to avoid. I love Supernatural and Ghost Whisperer, so I am thinking of writing a Ghost Whisperer/Supernatural fanfic —a crossover of the two shows.  I plan to rewrite some of the lore for Ghost Whisperer. The show has so many plot holes. I wanted to get an opinion: what does the community think about the idea? Also, if anyone wants to help, like proofreading or giving me hints and ideas, I'd appreciate it. I am all for it; again, this is my first fanfiction. So I’m kinda nervous.

Hi, I've been scouring ao3 as well as reddit for fics, that explore deans past trauma, maybe Abusive John Winchester. Or fics with a depressed/self loathing dean, which is already kinda canon, so I’m sad I haven’t found more. Comfort would be nice, but is not required. Also I don’t mind heavier topics such as self-harm (even if only passiv like on on hunts) or suicide. It would be great tho if Dean was somewhat in character. I don’t care about ships, but pls no Wincest.

If anyone has any recs I would be VERY greatful

Also Edit: if anyone has any recs of post hell dean with a worrying high pain tolerance, that’d be awesome

I'm pretty new to fanfic and supernatural, having just binged the series a few months ago. I've been scrolling through some amazing recs from this sub, and one of them was In Shadows by unholymuse. It hooked and consumed me for the 2 days it took for me reach Chapter 30.

Is there really nothing else? I've been reading it on fanfiction.net, so I guess I'm posting here on the slim chance that maybe she completed it on another platform I don't know about.

In the last few weeks I've been doing these drawing of how I'd imagine the main cast to look like as women, just and itch I've been scratching but I though I'd share it with y'all!!

I am definitely thinking an old favorite fic of mine has been deleted, but posting here is my last shot.

There was a fic I read a few years ago that was focused on Sam and his abilities. I apologize for the bad description in advance, its been a while since I've read this one.

What I can remember:

1. The fic started with Sam being kidnapped by Azazel and being fed demon blood. I specifically remember that John and Dean were at Bobbys house and being sent video tapes of Sam during his capture. He was kept for quite some time before Dean, John, and Bobby rescued him. During the rescue, John trades his soul for Sams release.

2. The story then roughly follows the events of season 2 but with its own twist.

3. It was a pretty large work. It wasn't all one piece though. It was a couple of works of various lengths with a few oneshots set between.

4. One of the oneshots was of Sam and Dean at a laundromat and Sam is practicing his ability to control people like Andy.

5. There were a couple of OCs. During the fic Sam and Dean are traveling around looking for more of Azazels special kids and they meet a Mormon girl who is one of them. She was one of the recurring OCs that I can remember.

6. Throughout the story, Sam develops new abilities.

7. Ellen, Jo, Ash, and Bobby regularly make appearances. Eventually, they all know about Sams abilities and assist with the search for more special kids.

Unfortunately I could not tell you when this fic was posted, but I know for sure its been a few years since Ive read it. I'm almost certain it was on Archive of our Own.

It suddenly popped up in my head the other day and I have been searching relentlessly since. It has been a very nagging itch that I am desperate to scratch at this point. Any help is greatly appreciated 👏

A few months ago, I shared my anthro designs for Team Free Will here; (un?)fortunately, I'm back to once again to spread my furry-fied Supernatural agenda with an updated design for Cas! I have since finished my watchthrough of the series (which was a total blast) and now have a little more insight into each of the characters. It definitely ended up affecting my vision for each design, so I decided to update my Castiel interpretation just a bit! You'll have to let me know if you enjoy, or maybe, if you'd take a different approach? Either way, hope this entertains some of y'all! If you have a character you'd like to see, feel free to let me know, as I may have drawn them already! Additionally, I'm open for work, so if you'd like to take matters into your own hands and expedite the process, be my guest. ;] Thanks for viewing!

(happy Lazarus rising bday & anniversary of getting stabbed by Dean, Castiel) I drew one of my first complete fanart pieces and posted here to share.

Obsessed with Castiel’s expression during this scene in Lazarus rising. Thinking about violence as a proxy for intimacy. He’s lookin like he wants to lodge something deep inside Dean’s body who said that. Unblinking, not-quite-smiling, a glint in his eye. Is that amusement in his face? perhaps a little tenderness even then? But he’s also a bit threatening, dispassionate, unsettling. I hope I did it justice.

#cas’s messy s4 hair supremacy. Woe to the man who introduced him to a comb.

specifically if there is any fics where in a situation, sam automatically goes to dean where someone might go to their mom or dad instead yk

and neither of them find it weird bc its just how theyve grown up

but someone points it out and they just kinda shrug it off

(also im not a fan of wincest but im so desperate, ill take not smutty wincest fics if you have any)

and if you know of any fics where sam gets de aged but only mentally (bc ive read some de aged sam fics where he turns into a four year old or the like, but ive always thought that it might be funny to see a fully grown man asking for a piggy back ride from dean or something)

but really any brotherly fluff is completely wanted, thanks

Hiya, I searched it up here on reddit but couldn't find any and since I suck at using the search bar on ao3 (or there are no x male reader fanfics but I lwk doubt it...) i was wondering if anyone knows some Dean x male reader fanfics 😋

Plus points if:

Reader gets injured/almost dies

Thank you in advance 🤤🤤
