A Sam-focused h/c meme!

Awww! Our fledgling community already has 136 members! *beams proudly* You guys ROCK!

So in order to celebrate the glory that is hurt!sick!Sam, we are hosting a comment-fic meme. You guys probably know the drill by now, but just to be on the safe side, I'll post a couple of rules below.

I will be keeping track of the meme and compiling a master list as new stories appear.

SPREAD THE WORD

Ground Rules:

1. This is a Sam-focused hurt/comfort community, so Sam should be the one in the hurt/comforted role. Your prompts may involve sick!Sam, hurt!Sam, angsty!Sam, basically anything that results in Sam being on the receiving end of hurt/comfort. (No rules against whumping other characters as well, of course, but you have to whump Sam first. ;) )

2. Comment to this post with your desired characters or pairings, and a prompt. All genres/pairings are welcome, BUT no RPF/RPS, please. Please focus on the fictional characters only.

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.”

3. You can leave as many prompts as you like, but please write one prompt per comment. If you've got a few (and feel free to prompt at will!), comment with each separately. This is to keep the meme manageable.

4. Your prompts can be as short or as detailed as you’d like. i.e. "Sam, Dean. Fever." Or a three-paragraph epic with details. The more detailed your prompt, the less wriggle room you're giving the writer, though, so bear that in mind.

5. Scroll through the comments and when you find a prompt you like, write a fic in reply to the comment. There is no word count limit.

6. More than one comment-fic response to a prompt is totally acceptable, and in fact encouraged. The more fic, the better!

7. When replying to a prompt with your comment-fic, put ‘FILLED’ in your subject line and then anything else you want, ie: 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, and for me when I’m compiling the master list.

8. Anonymous posting is enabled, but I haven't figured out whether I.P. logging is off because I suck at this sort of thing. If you're embarrassed by how schmoopy your prompts are, don't worry, we won't tell on you. ;)

9. No spoilers for future episodes. NONE. We will send Missouri after you with a spoon.

10. Standard rules of politeness apply. Do NOT bash any characters. Do NOT say rude things to prompters and writers. In short, don't be a douchebag. The mods will ruthlessly delete any ridiculousness we see.

11. Questions about the meme? Comments? PM your mods! We will be happy to answer your queries.

12. Do feed your authors! They’re awesome. Feedback is THE BEST DRUG EVER.

13. If you want to advertise this, that’s fantastic! It would be really appreciated. Just copy and paste the code provided above into your journal.

In conclusion, have FUN!

Master List

redrum669: Season 5 Sam needs to be forgiven and loved regardless of what he is and what he's done. For the love of God, do it! Gen, Slash, whatever. Just get that boy some damned hugs.

pkwench: Permanent injury. Any flavour.

blubird_pie: I'd love to see both boys get taken (for whatever reason) and Dean cares/comforts a distressed young Sam whilst in captivity.

dime_for_12: Are you brave enough to kill one of them? Your choice. Sam's either in agony and dying. Or Sam's trying to hold it together while Dean's slipping away.

lassiterfics: Pre-series: Sam's first week in the dorms at Stanford. He draws a single room and is shyly buying a plant, school supplies, and congratulating himself on making his tiny little room a home. Trouble is? He can't sleep. No matter how much he tries to wear himself out, he can’t sleep without Dean. Gen or slash is fine.

dime_for_12:Sam is shut down and hurting after Jess dies. Dean takes care of him through the next few days and the funeral.

blubird_pie: Season 5 Dean finds himself with DeAged Sam & he'd forgotten how much that kid like hugs - especially when scared.

blood_ecstasy: Wee!Sam gets the chicken pox and Dean gets to deal with it. I expect there to be lots of whining, smacking hands off of itchy spots, and tomato rice soup.

dither_river: Sam is shut down and hurting after Jess dies. Dean takes care of him through the next few days and the funeral.

annonwrite: Sam had a bad back and it hurts. A LOT. Dean makes fun of him. Then Dean realizes how bad it is. Then Dean feels guilty.

callistosh65: On a hunt in midwinter, Sam almost freezes to death. Dean finds him blue-lipped and still in a snowbank, gets him inside + takes care of him.

authoressnebula: From episode Swap Meat: Sam-in-teenage-boy's body has an asthma attack. Dean helps.

wicked_crayon: Sam agrees to let Michael try him on for size. It's an extremely, extremely bad fit and lasts for all of maybe a minute. Agony, issues of self worth, and one distraught, angry older brother are the result.

slsh_lvr08: A younger Sam gives birth on Dean's lap. Impala.

annonwrite: Early S1, Sam gets a cold/flu from not sleeping. Possibly also related to going swimming with his clothes on (1.3) or riding on an airplane (1.4)?

ancastar: S5 Sam is out of his head with fever for whatever reason. Thinks Dean is Ruby and that his brother is still in Hell.

pkwench: Sam's trapped inside his body with Lucifer in control. His thoughts/anguish/fighting to break free as Lucifer kills present!Dean and confronts past!Dean.

ratherastory: Crucifixion. *cough*

rosestoo: Michael and Lucifer face off in their best Winchester suits. Michael wins and sends Lucifer back to hell. He also sends Sam with him. Dean goes to find his brother. Sam suffers. A lot.

shyriann: S5 Sam is out of his head with fever for whatever reason. Thinks Dean is Ruby and that his brother is still in Hell.

ratherastory: Eye patch Sam! Sam loses one of those pretty eyes and has to cope with altered visual perception and looking like a pirate. Dean is awesome, over protective, angry as hell that this happened to Sam, and a completely amusing little shit.

sytaxia: After Sam has gone through detox after My Bloody Valentine he's still weak and feverish. Dean and Cas take care of him.

dime_for_12: Aftermath of Mystery Spot. Sam in serious fucking trauma, Dean slowly realizing the extent of what happened (hundred days of watching him die, six months without him). Sam needs to touch him at night to know he's real, afraid to sleep because he may wake up back in the Trickster's world without Dean, etc.

authoressnebula: 5x14. At the end of the ep, Sam locks himself inside the panic room using the original locking system (keep those inside safe from those outside). They've added anti-angel protection since last time so neither Dean nor Castiel can break in.

4422shini: The semi-bulletproof advantages of being marked as the devil's chosen vessel - being able to get between your brother and bullets. Trouble is? It fucking hurts, reapers turn their backs to you/hide behind their hands when you die, being brought back to life is scary, and your brother is really fucking pissed off at you for having done it.

dime_for_12: Something involving a bullet wound. Either one that Dean has to clean and stitch up or one that is already healed.

wicked_crayon: Sam's absolutely terrified to drive, feels just as guilty over John's death as Dean, has the occasional nightmare, and refuses to get behind the wheel.

ratherastory: Sam and Dean go undercover as Manly!Maids to investigate a haunting. Sadly, Sam has a dust allergy and just keeps sneezing.

pixymisa:Sam's always eaten more healthy than Dean, but he does have the occasional greasy burger. However, Dean's noticed since 4x22 Sam's eaten nothing but salads at every meal. They don't even have any meat in them. Can that be healthy? (Sam's gone vegetarian after quitting demon blood, avoiding the taste of anything even remotely like blood/meat.)

dante_s_hell: After Jump the Shark, Sam was bleeding so profusely. Surely there should be some h/c after that? :) He'd be weak and in pain and unable to do a lot of things for a few days after that.

dime_for_12:
Aftermath of "Heart." As soon as they walk out of that apartment, Sam falls back in the same place he was after Jess's death, except worse because it's the second time it's happened and he had to pull the trigger this time. He's shut down, doesn't want to talk, and Dean has to pull him out of it.

pixymisa: a severely injured S5 Sam gets sent to the past and is met by his preseries self/S1 self.

saberivojo: Pre-series, Sam is cleaning the knives at his father's request, and Dean's out for the night. In typical teenage boy fashions, screws around with them, trying out fight fighting moves he's not ready for. He cuts himself and tries to hide it from John, but John finds out.

saberivojo: Old Weschesters. It's no secret that Sam doesn't have as good of a seat on a horse as Dean does...

dime_for_12: Michael and Lucifer face off in their best Winchester suits. Michael wins and sends Lucifer back to hell. He also sends Sam with him. Dean goes to find his brother. Sam suffers. A lot.

faye_dartmouth: Some baddie is beating the crap out of our boy. The beating could be physical (fists and feet) or more magic related (along the lines of what happened to Dean in the season one finale). Dean is being forced to watch, but cannot intervene. All Sam has to do to get the whumping to stop is to tell the baddie to go pick on Dean instead. But he won't. No matter how much Dean begs him to.

pkwench: Wee!Chesters - Sam experiences night terrors.

melanth0: Sam goes insane. Not, oh, I'm a little crazy, but INSANE in whatever form you choose and Dean must reach him somehow.

m14mouse: The shifter in Skin really worked Sam over good. Some Dean taking care of him after and the two of them not dealing with what the shifter told Sam.

rosestoo: Michael and Lucifer face off in their best Winchester suits. Michael wins and sends Lucifer back to hell. He also sends Sam with him. Dean goes to find his brother. Sam suffers. A lot.

m14mouse: Wee!Chesters - A very wee Sam gets separated from John & Dean and winds up in protective services. He's sent to a state home while they try to figure out who he is, what to do with him. Sam does not thrive in this new environment and keeps looking under his bed and in the wardrobe, closets, big scary industrial kitchen, basements, attic ... everywhere for Dean and his Dad.

tifaching: History is littered with stories of brothers. This is one of them. Two brothers set out to save the world. The cost is high and the older brother is lost. It's said that the younger brother walks the country calling for him. From Maine to Kansas to Oregon, he walks. In torment, looking. Always looking. There are those that hunt things like him and they try, they do, but there are no bones to burn, no spells that will cast him out, no rituals that will ease his suffering. The only way to put this tormented spirit to rest lies in summoning the brother to take him home.

vail_kagami: Castiel takes care of Sam and Dean when Sam comes out of the panic room in 5.14.

vail_kagami: Following their separation in Good God Y'all, Sam gets a ride from someone allied against him. 'Break him,' they said. So the bad man, rapes him to a bloody mess.

Sorry, everyone. Spammers have found this entry, so I have to freeze all remaining comment threads. I think we're safe, it's a pretty old comment-fic meme. If anyone absolutely needs to comment here, PM me to let me know, okay? ~

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

She is deceptively tiny. White light leaks out of the corner of her eyes like tears of sunlight and her hands are barely larger than a child’s. When she lays them on Sam’s thick, muscular thigh, it’s ridiculous and kind of obscene.

She looks at Dean and puts the question to him again.

“Will you serve?”

Dean cannot look away from Sam as he slowly shakes his head.

“No.”

He’s still looking when she grabs hold of Sam with her petite hands and violently twists. The sound of cracking bones, the sound of Sam’s leg being ripped as she neatly, easily twists it in its hip socket is sickening.

Sam’s leg is facing almost backwards and he’s screaming when the little angel looks at Dean again and raises an eyebrow.

“No,” Dean says again. He wants to cover his eyes, but he doesn’t.

18 Months Later

They’ve been in the car for hours. When they stop, the clouds overhead are low and gray. Dean watches Sam get out the car and doesn’t say anything when he sees his face twist for a moment in agony. Sam shakes it off and straightens up. He forgoes the crutch in the backseat and starts limping gamely enough towards the farmhouse. Dean follows.

They’re met on the front porch by the sort of matronly woman that Dean expects to have pie and coffee ready for them. She glances down quickly at Sam’s leg, blinking at the brace that can’t quite contain the unnatural turn of his foot. Sweet as she looks, Dean silently dares her to say anything.

She doesn’t, but ushers them inside.

Inside they’re assaulted by the stench. It’s dark and fetid – a nearly unbearable combination of shit and rancid apples. The woman points to the stairs and Sam’s shoulders slump for a moment.

“Great,” he says so quietly that Dean knows he’s meant to act like hasn’t heard it.

Sam resolutely heads to the staircase and starts climbing. Dean sees sweat start to dampen the hair on his neckline on the eighth stair. He doesn’t say anything about that either or about the fact that it takes Sam ten minutes to climb the stairs. He just follows silently and wonders if they’ll be lucky enough to get fed after this.

They pass a boy sitting on the top of the stairs. He’s got an arm slung around the newel post like it’s his best friend. He’s sobbing quietly. Sam’s large hand drops to the boy’s head for a moment as he awkwardly climbs the last step and goes by.

The door to the last room on the left is shut, but there’s a faint curl of vapor easing its way out from beneath the door. Dean can hear growling and praying inside. He expects to find shades of ‘The Exorcist’ and ‘Emily Rose’ inside and he’s not wrong.

The room has been stripped, but for the bed. The paint on the walls is bubbling and falling off in small clumps like yellowed cottage cheese. The old farmer sits with his Bible next to the bed where the demon rides his eldest. Dean’s surprised to see that she’s tied down with salted rope. He’s more surprised when she turns her inky gaze towards them and smiles.

The question is for Sam this time. “Will you serve?” she asks, gesturing to his twisted leg.

The hike up the stairs has tired him and Sam’s dragging his leg as he limps to the bed. Dean’s quietly very proud of him when he uncaps the flask he carries in his jacket and sprinkles holy water on her.

“No,” Sam tells the demon. “I won’t.”

And then he starts to chant in Latin.

Guh.

You need to write more. Clearly.

Sam’s large hand drops to the boy’s head for a moment as he awkwardly climbs the last step and goes by.

That broke me. Oh, Sammy!

*is pleased* Thank you. You know what impressed me? It fit into one comment.

Lovely! It's great to see Sam being all confident and stedfast, and I love how you set up the parallel beginning/end even in such a short fic =)

Thank you! Amusingly, I was *THIS* close to skipping the demon entirely and skipping straight over to a scene where Dean's rubbing horse liniment into Sam's hip. But, once I got him to the stairs, it felt more harmonious to keep going. And I think it worked out nicely enough. Thanks for reading! :D

Listen, you are slowly become one of my WORST torturers. Every fic you write, I just want MORE, but you won't give in!

I'll try again though:

MORE!!!!

This was awesome, and I'm completely crazy impressed by the way you fit a whole story into such a small space.

And THANK YOU for the leg injury! *is so pleased*

Aw, thanks! I'd like to write more of about a dozen things, but it's like having two hours at the zoo - spend time with the penguins, lose the polar bears. See the polar bears, miss something awesome that the penguins did. Why the hell I had to rediscover fandom and writing after I started classes, I'll never know. My karma, she is bad.

That said (and I know I always say this) I do have more in my head. The afore mentioned liniment scene at the very least.

It had to be a leg injury - the dude's legs are a hundred miles long. I simply could not resist!

Remember when you said you wanted me to write more of this and I said "oh, maybe someday" like I always do? Yesterday/today was apparently someday.

Wow. That was incredible. So much in so few words. It was so very rich - I loved it. (And I confess, Sam with a permanent injury is not something I would have thought I could buy into. But you sold me completely!)

Honestly, it took

hoodie_time to get me around to what it is about permanent injury stories that are somehow really, I hate to say cool, but kind of awesome. I've done a thing or two to Dean, but this is the first time I've knocked Sam down like that. It's like a new playground.

And thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)

That was intense. Great job. I want more too!

Thank you!! I may just have to write that other tiny scene. It's almost useless by itself anyway.

Just fabulous. You say a lot in just one comment!

Thanks! It's actually the first comment fic that I've ever fit into a comment. I normally average between the 3-12 replies needed range. I'm somehow proud of having done it in one.

This has some of the most vivid descriptions. However, White light leaks out of the corner of her eyes like tears of sunlight has to be one of the best and most intense opening lines I've read.

I really want more of this ;D

Thanks so much!

Wow, that was utterly compelling. Such rich prose and so much of a tale set up and told beautifully. Thank you so much.

*blushes* Thank you.

Oh man, OUCH! Wow.

I know. It's such a long leg too.

Wow! Congratulations for fitting this into one comment. I loved how the tiny little angel just cripples Sam to try to get to Dean. And Dean doesn't cave and Sam keeps on going and doesn't let the demon at the end tempt him with health. Just awesome!

Fantastic. So much pain, love, and determination squeezed into such a short story. The circular plot was brilliant. Loved this.

Guh. This was intense. I'm just catching up with this meme and wallowed in the scene you set. Thank you!

Re: Filled: Will You Serve 1/1

pkwench.livejournal.com - 2010-03-06 07:09 (UTC) - Expand

Okay, I was REALLY not expecting this - this is not the type of permanent injury that I expected at all, especially seeing as it's, well, mine, albeit from a demon and not a massive fall - I almost stopped reading at that point, and I'm glad that I didn't. But the frustration upon seeing the stairs, the refusal to use the crutch - that hit incredibly close to home and was very, very, very true.

The idea of being offered the same thing from a child possessed by both an angel and then a demon, and of the offer being made to both Sam and Dean - that sort of parallelism is incredibly hard to pull off without it seeming forced, and you did it magnificently - their reactions, and the villains themselves, just seemed so organic, so seamlessly worked into their world - spectacular job! I've only just come into the fandom in November, and have lurked my way around a bit, and I definitely, definitely will be looking for more of your fic - this was just fantastic.

A Sam-focused h/c meme!
