Hey,

I'm a solid hurt!dean fan and I've almost totally exhausted what the wonderful hoodie_time comm has to offer. So now I'm looking for other stories that deal with Dean going into shock from bloodloss (especially by vampires) or his having heat stroke or heat exhaustion.

One of my absolute favorites is  Blood Work by adrenalineshots. In It Dean and Sam get captured by Gordon and his buddies as revenge for letting him "stew in his own juices" in Bloodlust and he decides that he's going to teach the boys a lesson about treating monsters the way they should be treated as well.

Dean ends up baking in the sun for most of the day until in the evening they loose a half starved vampire at him. Because he's tied down, he can't save himself and Sam can only partially help. Gordon eventually takes it away when Dean is going into shock from the blood loss.

Her characters' voices are spot on and the whole thing is deliciously angsty. (This is basically a rec I guess). That story is what got me hooked on the rest of her work actually.

Another story I read takes place a little after Asylum I think. Sam was wondering why Dean was so pissy at him if he insist that he doesn't blame Sam for what he did under Ellicot's influence. Eventually he realizes its because of the observations about Dean that he had written in the psych file.

They go hunting with Dean pissed at him like that despite knowing better and when they split ways Dean ends up locked in an old refrigerator (they were in a junk yard) during the heat of the day.

By the time Sam finds him he's unconscious from heat stroke. I can't remember the name of that story but I wouldn't mind reading it again actually.

Any other stories where Dean bleeds alot or he over heats externally would be lovely.
