First up: The Place of Men-Made-Stone by Connie Faddis

Spock joins an anthropological landing party on a desert planet in hopes of a bit of R & R and ends up experiencing an episode from the planet’s past in which the indigenous Ummir drive the lizard-like Kivari to destruction for having enslaved them - creating the rock formations in the valley.

A few years back I did a charity zine for gekizetsu. The zine pulled together the stories in her Month of Open Doors series. I've uploaded a printable pdf to my website here  (formatted for printing on letter sized paper). You can also find the series formatted for eReaders here. gekizetsu's website is here.

Too funny. Read here by rogue_clasique

“Oh, oh my god,” Sam says behind him, makes a little retching noise. “I think I’m gonna be sick.”

“’S pretty big,” Dean whispers unnecessarily. They’re crouched behind a big forsythia bush in suburban Massachusetts, peering through the dining room windows as an eight-foot tall garbage heap on dinosaur claws serves cupcakes to two of the cutest damn kids Dean’s ever seen in his goddamn life. And they’re identical, down to their light-up My Little Pony Nikes and curly brown ponytails.

From my private collection of recs from 2008. They range from humor to horror, slash to gen. (NOTE: Some of these recs are for same sex stories with mature themes, among them there may be stories and/or discussions of consensual incest. You must be 18 or older to read these works.)

1. Schmoop vid alert. "The epic love story of Sam and Dean."

2. Funny short J2 snippet.

3. Common Fate. (Sam/Dean), 10,000 words. Dean Winchester works in insurance: brought up in foster care, he’s never hunted, never fired a gun, and never owned a car. Then, one day, he meets a guy called Sam.

4. Misunderestimate (Sam/Dean), 3000 words. Maybe, just sometimes, violence is the answer. Or not.

5. Apocrypha (slash) ( Dean/*coff*Lucifer*coff*, R) In hell, Dean screams for his brother, and Sam comes to see him.
Dark with a twist.

6. Jumping-Off Point. (Sam/Dean), 7,500 words). Writer's take on Sam getting Dean out of the deal.
I liked the descriptions and the sense of place in this story.

7. Into His Hand. (J2 AU, RPS) 50,000 words. JR Ackles is a professional bullrider at the top of his game. He's got one thing on his mind: winning the championship belt buckle and the right to call himself the best in the world. His unwavering dedication and focus is finally put to the test in the form of JT Padalecki, an up-and-coming rider new to the professional ranks, who has his sights set on winning the PBR finals - and Jensen. Cowboys ride and get by on grit and tough determination - the question facing Jensen is if they have to do it alone.
As good - if not better - than most original fic.

8. Do I Seem Bulletproof To You? (J2 AU, RPS), 96,000 words. When he can't find any acting work, Jared takes a job as driver and bodyguard to Jensen, who is an extremely expensive prostitute with a bad habit of attracting crazy people.
One of the more interesting hookerfics I've read. A story about adults with adult reactions. One character stumble at the end, but satisfying.

9. Golden Lights Go Dark Tonight (Gen), 5000 words. In the beginning, Sam only wanted to save Dean. By the end, everything and nothing had changed.
I liked the pacing.

10. And All But He Departed, (Gen) 5,000 words. Sam’s first coherent thought was nguhhhh.
As a Terri Pratchett fan, I adored this story

11. thought I could let you go in grace. (Sam/Dean) short, Episode coda for Long Distance Call.

12. This Is The Sun Gone Down (Sam/Dean) The blood of a demon made Sam, but it can also save him. A story of one out of many, and the slow slide into love. AU.
New take on how demonic blood could lead to mental illness. as an fyi...a happy ending.

13. 13 Bound Avenue, Hamistagan ( NC-17, Dean/Jo, Dean/Jo/Sam, Dean/Sam.) Dean has a wife, a house, a steady job, a brand new ride and a charmed life. And he realizes he's not in control of any of it.
I don't want to spoil the premise but this story offers an innovative take on hell. The writing is a bit raw, but I liked the twists

14. SPN Pic spam. The many faces of Dean. The many faces of Sam.

stele3 has written the summary conclusion to her Supernatural epic Freakboy and Dykegirl. Story is here. Summary is here

and no I would have never seen this end coming. Not even if it had been hurtling towards me at 75 mph.

(NOTE: Some of these recs are for same sex stories with mature themes, among them there may be stories and/or discussions of consensual incest. You must be 18 or older to read these works.

There has been way too little Supernatural content in this journal lately. But I am beta-ing a very intense SPN vid (oh Dean!) and it has fired me up again.

I thought I'd showcase a few of my favorite writers today. There are so many, so I am grabbing a few randomly. Today, two writers who challenge themselves, the readers, and their characters by asking: What if....? If you're looking for simple case stories or comfortable "Sam and Dean and the Impala and their epic love" tales, then these may not be writers for you (more on those later).

kroki_refur
Writes mainly gen with some slash tossed in for leavening. Her writing is solid, she takes time building both the world and the characters (very important when you deviate from canonical characterization or even conventionally accepted views of the characters). She also has written a few thoughtful AUs: among them: What if Sam grew up in a universe where Dean never existed? And then they meet? (There But For The Grace) What if Sam lives in two universes simultaneously? one in which Jess dies and one in which Jess lives? (Crow on the Cradle)

If you're not in the mood for something long, then try some of her shorter works: they are tight and well paced:
Lost and Found (Sam saves Dean -- but sometimes, things just aren't that simple.)
Blood and Wine Are Red (Eventually, one of those boys is going to get caught.)
Messing Around With Slim (You don't mess around Slim. It's really a bad idea.)

kroki_refur uses cut tags and offers clear and detailed warnings and ratings on all her fic.

BUT..... if there is on thing in her LJ to read, it is her Supernatural Ten Expressions. Every episode she picks the best expressions from the show and serves them up to us with hilarious captions. Go forth and laugh.


fleshflutter
Her fic tends towards more darker themes but is also well thought out and well written. I'll start, however, with a story that is not dark to illustrate her wide range:
The Firefly That Loved Metallica (Dean's soul tastes like candyfloss. It's like a little, warm cloud of spun sugar in Sam's mouth. ) it is sweet and poignant without sacrificing masculine characterization

In Nomine Patris Her Bobby/Dean story is not a pairing I'd necessarily read or believe: but the psychological exploration of Dean's character and his unresolved issues with self-worth and family roles really sells the story to me.

One of the best horror SPN stories I've ever read was written by fleshflutter. It is The Old Gods Return (she has written a small coda to this story but I cannot seem to find it)

and last, if you thought you could never to read an 'end of the world story' and like it - I challenge you to read Starting From Home

fleshflutter also uses cut tags and offers clear and detailed warnings and ratings on all her fic.

Title: One Father's Sons by stele3 (120,000 words, complete)
Summary: AU for season two. After the car crash, Sam and Dean struggle to deal with their father's death, and make a startling discovery: they have a younger brother, Reese, who's got his own demonic issues.

The summary doesn't do this story justice. The OCs are strong and well written and the interplay between Sam and Dean is very much on the mark. If stories about learning to love and loyalty and family are your thing, this story is for you.

Excerpt:

'06

It took four times.

When Dean's eyes opened the fourth time, Sam saw it happen. Saw realization sink in without any spoken words (between the breathing tube and Sam's unwillingness to disturb the shards of his brother's body with even the faintest whisper). So it all happened underneath the ordered disruption of monitors, in the silences between beeps and hisses and the blink of Dean's bruised lids.

He looked up at Sam who sat beside him, then past him to where their father did not. Sam closed his hands into fists in the sheets and made himself watch: there would be no running away after this, no Stanford, and he was only a little surprised to realize how little that mattered to him right now. His dream had been a dotted line, beyond which lay an endless country. Dean's dream had been family, trinity, a triangle enclosed.

Dean broke in absolute silence, his powerful, deadly body lying still. There was nothing to mark the occurrence but a flutter of eyelashes.

To Sam that seemed more wrong than the empty air at his side. Because this was only the beginning, just a step. If Dean broke now, when he thought their father was lying dead in a freezer somewhere, what would he do when he learned that the truth was so, so much worse?

Sam made himself watch his brother's dream die and knew that he would gladly trade his own to open Dean's eyes a fifth time. His own grief burned in a hard line between his throat and gut, and he heard his father's voice saying Use it. Make your weaknesses into strengths.

He meant to transform grief into rage. Sam had smoked through anger already and felt all of it vanish in the space between his brother's heartbeats.


stele3 has a lovely new website set up that allows you to format and print this story with no wasted space (or just read without having to navigate through 30 LJ chunks). She has also set up a link to a charity (RAINN) to help raise funds for rape and incest abuse survivors.

go

Very lengthy, twisty (and sometimes complicated story) about the lengths Sam would go to protect Dean and to win peace for his family. Even if the first chapters confuse you, stick with it. Excellent secondary characters and well plotted.
