I do not mean evil!Sam, boyking!Sam, or soulless!Sam. 

I'd just like to read some fanfic that shows Sam in a different light. Where he's neither black-or-white, good-or-evil, but instead very grey. Not necessarily evil but moreso like he's so intelligent that he can't help but be somewhat manipulative and calculative. Like his sweet persona might be 30-50% performative and he partially just knows how to emotionally manipulate people extremely well. 

The one-shot "Control" by eluna on AO3 is a good example of what I mean about Sam's characterization. Unrequited wincest with a pining Dean and Sam uses Dean's feelings to his advantage. Knows what to say to purposely hurt Dean or to make Dean do what he wants. Makes a conscious choice to hurt or not hurt him, etc.  "Captured by the Game" by rivkat was another one. I adored her Sam. He was raised by Azazel and tilted a little closer to "evil" but not completely moralless. More just selfish and self-serving than outright "bad."

The tone of the recced story can be neutral, positive, or critical of these aspects of Sam's character. Any season or pre-series, I don't mind. Any length is fine as well: epically long, short, one-shot, WIP, completed are all fine. I'd also love to see both a Dean who completely buys into Sam being innocent/pure as well as a Dean who knows very well just how emotionally manipulative, cunning, and calculative Sam is but loves him in spite— or even *because* — of it.

Hi All,

I am searching for an older Castiel/Dean fic, I think it was completed in 2015, and it was posted on AO3. The premise of the story was that there is no Supernatural stuff and Sam was just accepted into college. In order to pay for it Dean gets back into the Dom/Sub world and Cas buys his contract. Not a ton of sex happens in the beginning mostly Dean kneeling at Castiel's feet. I remember later in the story they actually start dating and they meet each others family. If anyone knows where I could find this story that would be great!!!

Thanks

Hey there! So, I've been looking for fics that revolve around two themes:

1) AU or Non-AU fics where Castiel, while still being an angel, has a child or children or at least is a present parental figure in a child's life.

2) AU or non-AU fics where Dean and Cas, or either, have a sick child. Established, pre-relationship or gen is totally fine.

I'd appreciate enormously if you'd point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance!

I've been driving myself crazy for the past two days trying to find the fic where Jensen comes out Jared and Jared tries really hard to be supportive and educated about his best friend without offending him or doing anything wrong. I specifically remember Jared tailing along with Jensen and a couple of the other members of the crew to a gay bar, as well as another scene where Jensen has to explain to poor oblivious Jared that you don't have to dress differently or stop enjoying "manly things" to be gay. And of course they end up together once Jared figures it out. I hope that's enough to go on, thank you!! 

Hello, hope you're having a great day!

Recently I've been trying to find fics in which Castiel is temporarily in a female vessel or in which his body temporarily becomes female and this leads to Destiel. Unfortunately I've not been very lucky with my search so far, so I would love some recs :) I prefer non-au, but that's not a deal-breaker. 

Thanks!
