comment fic meme

In celebration of Sam's birthday, we're hosting another comment fic meme!

THE RULES

→ Leave a comment here with your prompt. Because it's Sam's birthday, I'm going to say that any Sam-centric prompts are okay, even if there's not much hurt/comfort in them.
→ In your prompt, please state your desired characters or pairings. All genres/pairings welcome, but no real-person prompts.

Example A: “Sam, Dean, gen, set in season 2. Sam has a vision and passes out. Cue caring!Dean and limp!Sam.”
Example B: “Sam/Dean, trauma. Sam is injured on a hunt, Dean freaks out when he thinks Sam might be dead.”

→ Post as many prompts as you like - but one prompt per comment. If you've got a couple, comment with each separately.
→ Prompts can be as short or detailed as you like. Remember though - more detail means less wriggle room for the writer, which might lower the chances of someone picking up your prompt.
→ Go through the prompts! If you find one you like, write a fic for it. There's no limit to how many users can reply to a prompt, or how many prompts someone can write for.
→ When replying to a prompt with your comment-fic, put ‘filled’ in your subject line and then anything else you want, like a title if you have one/part numbers. It’s not a big deal if you forget this step, but it will make it easier for people to find your fic.
→ Anon posting enabled.
→ NO SPOILERS FOR UNAIRED EPISODES.
→ Play nice - no flaming and no character bashing, period. Any comments that break this rule will be deleted without warning.
→ Feedback is catnip for writers. Leave some author-love!
→ No spam comments.
→ Contact one of the mods if you have a question.
→ Spread the Sam love - pimp this meme! Just copy and paste the code below:

→ Have fun!

THE MASTER LIST

tahirire wrote The boys are in a better place emotionally. Dean thinks past his hurt at what he saw in Sam's heaven, and gets Sam a golden retriever puppy for his birthday.

dime_for_12 wrote 5x03 AU. Sam already said yes. He just doesn't know or remember it. Vessel!Sam, Possessed!Sam, Eeery!Lucifer. Please include lots of Dean.

anonymous wrote After a Narrowly-Averted-Apocalypse, an old friend from Stanford runs into Sam Winchester at a gas station. He's surprised/disturbed by what he sees.

ratherastory wrote Sam discovers an intricate symbol that will allow him to wrench back control from Lucifer. Now he just needs someone to carve it into his back.

maskedfangirl wrote Happy Birthday, Sammy! Pity that it's alternate universe 5x04 and that you're having your birthday trapped inside of your own skin while the Devil ruins the world. Still, it was nice of the guy to sing to you on your birthday and he even got you a gift - he let you wander around in your body for an entire night out in the bleak remains of civilization. Of couse, everyone thinks you're the Devil and you're reviled and feared wherever you go. Worse, you're probably pretty far gone to find yourself weeping at the sound of birds on the wind or the scent of burning tires because it's just been so damned LONG since you've felt anything at all. Hey, I wonder what your chances are of getting Dean on the short wave are?

tifaching wrote The book that changed Sam's life. NOT The Catcher in the Rye or The Outsiders, please.

authoressnebula wrote I kind of have a thing for tired!Sam. And we know from 5x19 he's not been getting a lot of sleep. So, something where Sam is fighting to stay awake, maybe researching or in the car, and Dean's trying to get him to go to sleep?

mute90 wrote Angel/AU Spn crossover in which lawyer!Sam works at Wolfram and Hart. Sam's not evil. Just morally ambiguous in a goofy, adorable way. And now Angel has taken over Wolfram and Hart, and Lorne has instituted staff birthday parties, and it's Sam's birthday. All his work friends are there, and his non-work friends and family are invited, and it's a catastrophe. Dean is trying cheesy pickup lines on Illyria, and Bobby is making awkward smalltalk with Spike, and Castiel and Wesley are having, like, brooding, stubbly, eyesex in the corner, and Sam's pretty sure that still!alive!Jess is developing a crush on his darkly handsome, undead boss. It's the worst birthday ever, and there's something supernaturally not right about the cake...

authoressnebula wrote AU version of 5x10 Abandon All Hope: Sam is the one attacked by a hellhound, not Jo.

dime_for_12 wrote Sam's crazy plan works. He says yes to Lucifer to trap him, and manages to get him into the cage. Somehow, then or later, he is rescued, but he is physically and emotionally messed up from being possessed and locked up with Lucifer. Dean is there for him.

dime_for_12 wrote After a Narrowly-Averted-Apocalypse, an old friend from Stanford runs into Sam Winchester at a gas station. He's surprised/disturbed by what he sees.

sistabro wrote Set in or after Sam Interrupted. Sam and Dean didn't get away and the doctor fills out his threat of sending Sam to a facility that deals with violent patients. Lucifer starts visiting Sam in his dreams.

kalliel wrote The book that changed Sam's life. NOT The Catcher in the Rye or The Outsiders, please. [Part 2] [Part 3]

klutzy_girl wrote A witch the boys meet on a case decides to cast a spell on Sam as a gift for his birthday (she notices the guys have some communication hang ups)--he will not be able to inhibit what he says for a full day. Basically everything he thinks and feels comes spewing out of his mouth without his control. Including many thoughts of self-loathing and doubting Dean could ever love him the same after all that's happened, any other things you want, etc. Sam is mortified and feels exposed and stupid.

lassiterfics wrote Sam starts smoking at Stanford, a slow but inexorable climb towards addiction. He tries halfheartedly to hide it from Dean after Jess dies, but Dean finds out pretty quickly and is shocked and appalled.

caerial wrote The Winchesters spend a lot of time in Humboldt Park (a predominantly Puerto Rican neighborhood in Illinois) tracking down old contacts. John leaves Sam and Dean in the care of a friend and Sam, precocious child that he is, starts learning to speak around then. But Dean doesn't talk anymore, and John's never around, so Sam's first acquired language actually ends up being Spanish. John's beginning to realize it wasn't just his and Mary's life went up in flames. So what now?

m14mouse wrote A Supernatural/Buffy crossover. Stanford-era Sam and recently-chipped Spike save the world. The problem is Sam has no one to tell and Spike has no one who will believe him. So, Spike comes back to Stanford a year later with a whole bunch of bear to celebrate the day they saved the world. Sam loves the company.

27_jaredjensen wrote Sam, Dean - season five after "The End". Sam is taking the Impala out to get food when he wrecks the car. He thinks this will be just one more thing that Dean will be mad at him about. Then he realizes he's hurt and ends up in the hospital. Dean takes care of him.

27_jaredjensen wrote Stanford era--Sam is sick during his birthday (could be the first one at Stanford or not) but a birthday present arrives that cheers him up.

roque_clasique wrote Stanford era--When Dean goes to check on Sam, he's shocked to be pointed in the direction of a busy club. Turns out Sam's the lead singer of a super-emo rock band (and, yes, he IS wearing eyes liner. AND leather pants). Sam is mortified to see Dean looking like that (he finds being bombarded by female groupies while he croons melodramatically embarrassing and only joined the band to get some cash for school).

greeneyes_fan wrote Gen. Like we all know, Sam gets his arms sliced up pretty bad by the ghouls in 4.19. BUT for some reason, the stitches Dean put in keep dissolving and the boys don't know why. Dean is afraid that Sam is pulling the stitches out himself and Sam won't contradict him because he thinks that maybe the demon blood running through him is eating the stitches away. Either way, Sam's not healing, just getting worst. All ends shmoopily after h/c hi-jinks ensue.

phx69 wrote Ever since his rape on his birthday, he hasn't celebrated. Sam finally gives into Dean's questioning in why.

dime_for_12 wrote Sam suffers an injury that won't be fatal but that will be intensely painful for some time and/or take a long time to heal enough to get back in the hunt if it'll heal at all. Frustration, h/c, and finally he gives up and asks Dean to kill him, because he knows perfectly well he'll bounce back from that much faster.

sistabro wrote Sam, Chuck, booze, and useless college degrees.

Set in or after Sam interrupted.

Sam and Dean didn't get away and the doctor fills out his threat of sending Sam to a facility that deals with violent patients.

Lucifer starts visiting Sam in his dreams.

*grabs* working on this now

So this got a bit long, and I have the feeling it isn't what you were probably looking for, but I hope you enjoy it anyways.

Ceaseless, corny, fake howling practically vibrates the wall next to Sam's bed. Wolfman the aides half-jokingly call the big burly guy in 12B. Pretty much the whole wing wants to gank the dude because, well, even crazy violent motherfuckers like to sleep. Except, that is, for Sam, who specifically asked to be placed next door. Lied and said he couldn't sleep in the quiet, grew up in coyote country and the howls and yips were like a lullaby. The doctors and aides had given him the hairy eyeball, but crazy is as crazy does and this place is nothing but crazy. So Sam doesn't sleep much, and, as a bonus, the guy he'd swapped rooms with gives Sam all his desserts in gratitude for finally being able to snag an actual eight hours.

Who gets the extra cookie now, Dean, huh?

Of course, Dean doesn't answer because, well, Dean isn't here, thank Christ. Sam isn't that off his rocker yet. They'd gotten caught in the uproar after killing the wraith, drugged unconscious, and the next lucid memory Sam has is waking up in his first room in Pendelton Asylum—aka, prison for the violently insane—strapped to the bed and feeling like his tongue had shriveled up and died. Needless to say, security is a hell of a lot tighter than at Glenwood, which puts a major damper on any escape plan. Not that Sam is trying particularly hard to break out anymore.

Because you see, once he had been eased out of the drugged semi-coma that all new intakes at Pendleton were put into to ease their transition, Sam had started dreaming again. And not his normal cuddly dreams of stopping Dean's heart with an outstretched hand and the taste of blood in his throat or listening to his brother call him a monster while looking at him with disgust and disappointment or watching the sky burn and people tear themselves apart with beetle black eyes. No, it's Lucifer sitting on a chair or leaning against a wall and talking in that smooth, soothing, soft, voice and being oh so fucking reasonable.

And Sam, well, he's a sucker for reason, always has been. It had been his go to strategy as a child for trying to rest at least a little bit of control of his life from his father and Dean. Shit, he had signed up to be a lawyer because of it, that comforting appeal to logic and decency and reason.

So sleep is out. Hence the howling every night, which is good for at least a few hours of wakefulness. After that, when Wolfman finally yips and whines himself to sleep, there's PT—katas, pushups, situps and jacks—until his coordination gives out and he's reduced to staggering between the walls of his cell until they start unlocking the doors and herding everyone to breakfast.

Sam isn't stupid. He knows that he has to sleep sometime. But he has spent large portions of his life as a high functioning insomniac; he can put it off a hell of a lot longer than most. Especially here, where high functioning is considered being able to feed yourself, swallow your spit, speak instead of bark, and give some warning that you are working up to a violent freak out instead of randomly stabbing people with pencils while giggling. With those kind of standards, Sam has found he can push two weeks, sometimes even almost three, subsiding on disjointed cat naps during the day, before he needs some long term shut eye.

He usually knows its time when he starts seeing Dean full on instead of just hearing him make snide, snarky comments in his head. It hurts to see his brother, even as a hallucination, in this place. Cuts Sam right to the bone to see the sad worried looks Dean shoots his way, like he still cares about Sam, still likes him and is proud of him and trusts him. Like he still wants to be his brother and make sure Sam is all right.

Then, under Dean's sad gaze, Sam will stage a freak out, start throwing shit and taking clumsy swings at the air, shouting nonsense about ghosts until the aides come and stick him full of needles, drug him down so deep that his mind can barely form dreams of muted swirls of colors let along hold a conversation with the Devil. They keep him down for two, three days. Three days of the worst kind of sleep, but it gets him by.

It won't get him by forever, though. Sam's been through a few cycles already and each time, he gets less out of the enforced slumber. His muscles and joints always ache now from the constant movement and nightly exercising, tiny tears that multiply and never get a chance to heal. He's lost weight, slurs on the rare occasion he speaks, and his burning eyes have more or less completely lost the ability to focus, rendering the world in blobs and swirls. As for thinking, well that doesn't really happen after the first week with no sleep. All he has his stubborn doggedness to keep him up and moving until Dean starts eating lunch in front of him.

Sam knows he's unraveling, slowly but surely, because it's getting harder and harder to remember that the Dean in his head is just Sam's mind reacting to stress and loneliness. It's getting harder to convince himself that it isn't Dean's ghost, haunting him, when he keeps catching half glimpses of his brother out of the corner of his overtired eyes. It's getting harder to remember that he doesn't want Dean here, not at all, even though the loneliness is almost worse than the never ending exhaustion.

Sam knows that this endless sleeplessness is just a different way to break himself on the Devil's altar. But Sam isn't planning on doing it forever. No, he's aiming for just long enough to give his brother the time he needs to save the world. Because that's what Dean does, saves people, saves Sam.

Sam just wishes Dean would hurry the fuck up before Wolfman isn't the only one howling heartbreak into the night.

*end*

This is so hurty. I love it!
This: And Sam, well, he's a sucker for reason, always has been. It had been his go to strategy as a child for trying to rest at least a little bit of control of his life from his father and Dean. is so Sam. It kind of makes me cry a little.

I have a mad love for insomniac, slightly crazy Sam.

But of course one of those Deans he sees is going to be the real Dean, getting him out, right?

Lovely fic, touches of humor in Wolf-guy, amidst all the angst.

I, too, may have a thing for insomniac Sam. I've only done two comment fic memes and both featured Sam in need of some serious shut eye.

Thanks for reading, I'm glad you liked it :)

Yay, I'm glad you like it. And it totally is Sam, with his whole appealing to reason thing. He so wishes the world was reasonable, poor Sam.

*stares at typo in excerpt and twitches*

Don't worry about the typo! It's commentfic, the main thing is just to write it! It's just such a sharp character study of Sam: so determined, trying so hard to do the right thing even when the universe keeps trying so hard to make him do wrong.

I know, and I fixed it when I put the story in my LJ properly, which made me feel much better. But still, you think I'd learn not to post when half asleep. *is sheepish* Oh well, I'm glad you liked it anyways :) Poor Sam with the whole universe against him *cheers him on with pompoms*

This was awesome :-)

I have such an addiction to the boys dealing with mental illnesses or just mental hospitals*g*

Oh, I'm so glad you liked it! It was a fun prompt. Crazy boys are just so much fun :)

I wish Dean would hurry up too! This was amazing.

I know! Dean is such a slow poke. And he's probably being stupid and trying to rescue Sam first, instead of taking care of the apocalypse, cause that's just Dean. So when Dean does come to break Sam out, Sam will be all like, I did all that for nothing? And there will be much wailing and gnashing of teeth. :) Glad you liked it.

Awwwww! I really wanted a scene where Dean rescues Sam, but this is very good too.

Thanks! Alas, my brain died before Dean could show up and I had to get up extra early for work. stupid rl interfering with fic :P

Oh, my goodness--so good, and so bone-chillingly heartbreaking. Gave me shivers!

Thanks for reading! I'm glad you liked it.. it did come out a bit creepy didn't it?

Hurry, Dean! Hurry! Loved this part so much- "Cuts Sam right to the bone to see the sad worried looks Dean shoots his way, like he still cares about Sam, still likes him and is proud of him and trusts him. Like he still wants to be his brother and make sure Sam is all right." He DOES Sam! Poor Sam. Also poor Dean. So messed up. Great fic, thanks for sharing!

Thank you for reading! And yes, poor, poor boys *pets them*

just....you win at life with this.

so good. and damn, but you can write.

loved it. amazing job ♥♥♥

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it! So, question.. how do you get the little black hearts? I want to be able to leave little black hearts too but I don't know how...

this? ♥

its the alt key and 3 on the number pad (the side) at the same time.

also, & hearts ; (with no spaces)

:]
