'Half the Man'
Characters: Sam 'n Dean, a pinch of Kevin and Missouri
Wordcount: ~5,200
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: four-letter words, much blood, spoilers for Season Eight
Summary: Nothing is certain but change. The angels are falling, Dean has the King of Hell in his trunk and a pissed-off prophet to placate, but Sam isn't even close to right. When it rains, it bloody well pours.
Notes: Written for ladykorana's prompt at ohsam: “What if the trials really did purge Sam of demon blood? But what if the demon blood was giving him huge advantages in health growing up (height, immune system boost, etc.)? Now without it, even recovered from the Trials, his immune system is just not what it used to be, and he catches every little cold and flu going around. And maybe takes longer to recover from injuries as well." I only got through half the prompt, but it works. I think. Maybe. Much love to my team of generous betas: nwspaprtaxis, amber1960, monicawoe, and to honeylocusttree for her patient brainstorming. It truly does take a village.

Dean hauled Sam into the salvation of the Impala and drove with an urgency that bordered on the manic.

Title: Stand Still and Breathe
Rating: PG 13; for some non-explicit smut, swearing and sensitive health issues
Genre: Gen, slash, hurt/comfort, family, angst
Pairing: Dean/Castiel
Characters: Sam, Dean, Castiel (minor appearances by Charlie Bradbury, Crowley, Kevin Tran and Amelia Richardson)
Word count: ~5000 for the chapter
Summary: Sam and Dean are brothers again. That's what matters, right? They just need to figure out a way to pull Sam back on his feet now. Except this time, it's not that easy. And there's Castiel, who is now human: a broken human. Soon, the two most important people in Dean's life are fading away, and there's nothing he can do about it.
Spoilers: Through to 8.23, Sacrifice, but AU following Sacrifice.
Warnings: Sexual situations (not explicit), strong profanity, sensitive health topics
Disclaimer: I don't own anything you recognise. I really wish I did, but nope. Kripke is the one who created them.
