Sam/Dean AU fic recs?  
I've read a lot in the wincest fandom, but what I haven't read plenty of are AU stories. Yes, I've read some but this fandom has been around forever and I'm guessing there's some I haven't seen. Anyway, I'm hoping you can rec me some. I'd prefer them long, multichapter fics, the boys can be brothers or non-brothers. (or stepbrothers or one of them being adopted, whatever you've got) I'd also prefer if they're not hunters or they got out of the hunting game early, but it's fine if they're non-brothers. AO3 is also a godsend if you have a link there.

Thank you in advance. :3

If I give you my heart (http://mystik-ivanow.livejournal.com/73875.html)
The Winchesters are not just any family. They are a family of witches. And cursed as well. But that doesn’t stop Dean and Sam from being raised by their aunts with love, after both of their parents die. They grow to be closer than any other brothers. In one night, on Sam’s birthday, everything changes between them. An event that leads to their separation. But years later, they discover that the curse is not a curse, but a deal with the devil. And the devil wants Sam. Dean is the only one who can save him, not only because of his love but because of a spell innocently made years ago on that unforgettable night. Will it be enough or are they fated to succumb like all those in the past?

San Francisco, 1924. Five years after the worst day of his life, Sam Winchester's still hustling for a living, still searching for his missing brother, and on the track of a story so big it might just break him.


I have a Not!Brothers!AU (https://delicious.com/chellexxx1/Not!Brothers!AU) tag too if you fancy a browse?

Try [livejournal.com profile] virtualpersonal's fics. They write Sam/Dean AUs (http://virtualpersonal.livejournal.com/253875.html)where they are not brothers, and they are sooooo good. :)

This is a self-rec and a work in progress (updates every Monday) but maybe you want to have a look:
Wrapped in Honey (http://lady-emebalia.livejournal.com/19053.html)
Summary: AU in which Sam is a monster who wants to buy himself somebody to feed on. Lucky him, Dean's on sale.

two fics come to mind for AU Sam and Dean and one of them is MEGA long, like 3 million words long (I'm not kidding!) both are by [livejournal.com profile] bitchandjerk the Mikey!verse (http://bitchandjerk.livejournal.com/11371.html) and his Samcakes!verse (http://bitchandjerk.livejournal.com/?skip=30&tag=samcakes). He has a quirky style and they are fun fics to read, but also have angst too occasionally. They are both pretty cool fics from the earliest days of fandom. you can find my rec's for them with more detail here (http://crack-impala.livejournal.com/466654.html) at [livejournal.com profile] crack_impala

edited cause i haven't had my morning coffee and typos suck :P lol

Love Wincest AUs. :) This Thing of Ours (http://fleshflutter.livejournal.com/28026.html) is a good one - they're an organized crime family rather than hunters.

Also Supernatural Born Killers (https://www.fanfiction.net/s/6431722/1/Supernatural-Born-Killers). It's dark but good, and while I think they may have been hunters previously, they're not in this one.

I think this one suits your search very well. It's one of my very favorite AUs They're brothers in this, but not hunters.

A Life Most Ordinary (http://archiveofourown.org/works/408747/chapters/677940) by lj user="sonofabiscuit77 ">. She's an *incredible* writer, just incredible! This link takes you to AO3--you might want to check out her other stories as well, she has a gangster Winchester AU you might like! :)

A Monster by Any Other Name
http://freac-camp.livejournal.com/517.html

This is a fantastic, dark, very long AU story that I cannot recommend highly enough. It starts when they are both kids. Dean is John's son and John is a hunter. Sam is an 'unidentified monster' kept in a concentration camp. Take the warnings very seriously, especially the ones about graphic child abuse. Although this is very dark, there are elements of hope and joy in it, and the relationship between Sam and Dean is wonderful.

Although the Winchesters are hunters in this verse, hunting is not the focus of the story. It is a WIP, but is still being updated periodically.
