Prompts for the Ohsam fic challenge are here!

[ratherastory.livejournal.com]

Okay, from November 2nd to November 11th inclusively, leave up to five Sam-centric h/c prompts! You don't have to participate in the challenge to leave a prompt, although it is encouraged! I will compile a master list under the cut, along with claims. (You don't have to prompt in order to claim, either, for that matter, but again, it is encouraged!)

One prompt per comment, please, and please warn for spoilers and/or any triggers in your prompt. We encourage "greying out" spoilers and triggers, or using white font, whichever works better for you. Please specify if your prompt is for gen, slash, het, other or if you don't mind either way. I will be listing the prompts by pairing (if you can call gen a pairing, but let's not start splitting hairs, right?)

After November 11th, prompting will be closed, and claiming will commence until November 30th, but you can post at any time until February 2nd.

:::ETA:::

Prompting is now closed! In a few minutes I'll be putting up the claims post. The rules for claiming will be explained, have no fear.

Psychological issues!Sam must be prompted over and over until much fic is written about his angst, so. Yes. I am here.

I'm going to tweak an old, unfilled prompt of mine (originally for Dean, but I love them equally really I do) and hope that's okay. If this is too long, the bold text should give you all the info you need.

After his return from the cage (or some other trauma of your choice) Sam suffers from depersonalization. Which basically means a person feels disconnected from their body, or parts of it, especially when stressed -- they can look at themselves in the mirror and feel like a stranger is staring back, or get the overwhelming feeling that, say, those are someones else's legs they're walking on, or that one/both their hands are not their own, and so on.

There is no hallucination or psychosis involved, it's basically a feeling (in the same way, for example, your brain insists that the room in spinning after you move in circles) and Sam KNOWS it's just a feeling, damn it, but it is so real he just can't stand it. And it happens to him unexpectedly, too, which makes it hard to focus and potentially dangerous for a hunter.

Maybe Dean knows, maybe he doesn't, maybe he finds out and tries to comfort/ground Sam during these episodes.

Gen, anywhere between Stanford era to the first chapters of season 8.
