I tried looking in the tags, but I don’t see anything that sounds like what I’m looking for (possibly overlooking it due to lack of coffee). It was a high school fic, and Jensen gets kicked out of his parents home after he comes out to them. He moves in with Jared and his mother, and I think her nickname for Jensen might have been Bean. The end of the fic is Jared and Jensen grown up, and they run into Jensen’s mother.

Sound familiar?

Hi! Hoping someone can find a story that I haven't been able to locate in a while. The main thing I can remember is that Sam and Dean end up on a hunt that has to do with a modern Indian tribe that is being hassled by ghosts of an ancient tribe. In order to make the hauntings/problems stop, Dean ends up being tested to see if he is a worthy warrior. I remember there was a group of people (maybe a tour group) along with Sam and I think the modern tribe's female shaman (who was leading the tour group) watching Dean go through the "tests". I remember that Dean gets pulled behind some horses. He goes through a couple of other things too but I can't remember them. This may also be taking place after Dean was already pretty run down from a previous hunt, but I'm not sure. Would greatly appreciate it if someone can recall this story.

Also, I will gladly take any recommendations where Dean goes through some type of trials or tests or whatever, whether to prove himself or to protect/save Sam. Gen or Wincest gladly accepted. Please no WIPs and self recs are always welcomed! :)

FOUND: Specific story found, thank you. Still open to recommendations for similar stories.

Hello Everyone,

I’m at my wits end and coming to you in desperation. I had two of my favorite stories saved on my iPad which died and even though I had the entire contents saved to the cloud, those two stories were not recovered. I’ve searched everywhere for them and I can’t find them anywhere. I believe both stories have been taken down by the authors and I’m heartsick to have lost them since they were my go to stories whenever I wanted something really well written and full of lovely hurt/comfort to read.

1) The first one was called Queensguard. There were several stories in the series. A dragon AU

2) The second was called Days of our Life. It was very, very long and the authors never completed it. A pornstar AU

If anyone has copies they would share with me, I would be eternally grateful!
