fleshflutter
Info: Sam/Dean, R, 10595 words, post-AHBL
Summary: In which Sam has a bottle full of soul.
Notes: With a first line like "Dean's soul tastes like candyfloss", this fic should be unmitigated crack. And it is hilarious sometimes, but it's also warm and substantial and beautifully true to the characters.
The Time Dean was Sam's Girlfriend and Jess Entered the Winchester Family Business
By:fleshflutter
Info: Sam/Dean + Sam/Jess, PG-13, 11041 words, bodyswapping+genderswitching

Dating for Dummies
By: sevenfists
Info: Sam/Dean, R, 3500 words
Summary: Dean's car was still parked outside their room, so at least he hadn't freaked out and bolted in the night—or maybe he had, maybe he was so freaked out he'd forgotten his car keys and was walking down the highway, or hitch-hiking.
Notes: Pitch-perfect boys, snarking at each other and finding their balance.
Green and Gamboge
By: sevenfists
Info: Sam/Dean, R, 5800 words
Summary: Sam first notices the weird dinging noise in Paducah, and by the time they hit Kansas City, it's a full-on clank and rattle, the car thumping rhythmically every time the engine turns over.
Notes: This fic is full of awesomeness. And gremlins. The gremlines are awesome, and also the best enablers ever.
Truer Words Were Never (AO3 mirror here)
By: rivers_bend
Info: Sam/Dean, R, 5000 words
Summary: to the prompt: something supernatural messes with Dean, making him more honest/open.
Notes: This one I've definitely already rec'd, but it bears so much repeating. This fic is sweet and lovely and makes me grin every time I read it.
the gay that it is
By: gekizetsu
Info: Sam/Dean?, PG-13, 3200 words
Summary: The gayest gen story ever written. Pretending to be gay turns out to be the best idea ever.

By:gekizetsu
Info: Sam/Dean, R, 2908 words
Summary: “This is like...we’re cursed, or something,” Dean said.
Notes: One of my earliest favorites, back when I first started reading SPN fic and was still a consummate lurker. I've lost count of how many times I've read this fic.

By: halfshellvenus

Notes: Excellent, gorgeous, another fic I fell in love with early.
More Than Meets The Eye (AO3 Mirror)
By: astolat
Info: Sam/Dean(/Impala?), adult, 1800 words, spoilers for Transformers and SPN S2
Summary: Dean had them heading towards Golden Valley on US-93 when the semi and the fighter jet went screaming by, blasting at each other with what looked like laserbeams. That was crazy enough, even before both of them smashed into the overpass and stopped long enough to unfold into giant robots.
Notes: There are no words. Just the pure power of awesome.
Binding (AO3 Mirror)
By: astolat
Info: Sam/Dean, adult, 6991 words, post BUaBS
Summary: No way had Bobby pulled out some pair of real mystical amulets from nowhere and handed them over like crackerjack prizes.
Notes: astolat's stuff is always amazing, and this fic is no exception. I love the boys in this. So beautifully done.
The Flower Gleams
