012 - [theme: crossovers; 2 gen]

[mimblexwimble.livejournal.com]

two more crossover recs, with a decent amount of hurt!sam! both fics can be read without being familiar with the crossover show (i haven't seen burn notice or criminal minds, but i enjoyed the stories very much). if you read, please consider leaving feedback for the hardworking authors of these stories!

rec by harrigan:
supernatural/burn notice

title. smoke on the water
author. ratherastory
rating. pg13
words. @20k?
characters. sam, dean, cast of burn notice
warnings. none
summary. casefic. former spy michael westen has enough problems of his own ― not least of which is figuring out who burned him and why. now, on top of that, his mother is accepting jobs on his behalf. he really doesn't have time for this, but when he starts investigating the unsolved deaths of young people in miami, he finds himself crossing paths with an unlikely pair of brothers. in michael's line of work, suspicion is par for the course, and he has to figure out whether sam and dean winchester are friends or foes before even more lives are lost.
reccer's comments. written for the 2010 spn_summergen and one of my favorites. awesome opov (100% in keeping with the burn notice style - but you don't need to be familiar with the show to be delighted with this.) all the characters are spot on, there's action/adventure and, yes, hurt!sam, too! fantastically fun ride!


rec by mod
supernatural/criminal minds

title. a fate worse than
author. ninhursag (aka vaingirlfic)
rating. pg-13
words. 3,700
characters. dean, sam, jason gideon of criminal minds
warnings off-screen non-con and extreme violence.
summary. when sam is kidnapped while john is on a hunt, dean is desperate. if he can't save his brother, is there anything he can do?
reccer's comments. a chilling fic. there are no easy fixes here.

Monday Morning Feels So Bad

Title: Monday Morning Feels So Bad
Author: 27_jaredjensen 
Characters: Sam, Dean, minor OCs
Word Count: ~7,600
Spoilers/warnings: Language, no spoilers  
Disclaimer: I don’t own Supernatural or the characters. Also, the mystery spot I used is loosely based around the “real” one in Santa Cruz, CA, which I have never been to. Same story with the supernatural monster- loosely based on stories of other creatures found on Wikipedia. Title taken from song “Friday on My Mind” by The Easybeats.


Written for the ohsam Sam-centric h/c fic challenge for this prompt, which is also posted at the end. It is ohhh so late and turned out to be a monster of a fic, but I kinda like how it turned out:)
 

Sam and Dean run into a frustrating hunt, which would be a pain in the ass even if Sam wasn’t sick.

mod post: comment fic memes

[mimblexwimble.livejournal.com]

Since the beginning of this comm, we've been hosting comment fic memes about once every six months. However, I don't think comment fic memes are too stressful, and they can be good practice if you've hit a block in your regular writing. So, the mods would like to ask all of you a question - would you prefer comment fic memes be hosted more regularly?[Poll #1760122]
