BOOST THE SIGNAL

Welcome back to another November, and our annual November 2nd meme!

This time around, we're going to do a good old-fashioned comment meme. Starting right now (no, really, right now) post any prompt in the comments of this post, as long as it is h/c-related and Sam-centric.

As soon as you see a prompt you like, fill it! Write a fic, make some art, use your imagination. Post a reply to the original prompt comment with your work or, if it's a lengthy fic or art, a link to the work in your journal or elsewhere.

The rules:
-Post one prompt per comment, please. This makes it easier to track, and easier to tell which fills go with which prompts.

-Post as many prompts as you'd like! The more, the merrier.

-Same goes for fills. You're welcome to fill as many prompts as you want to, and multiple people can absolutely fill the same prompt. We love to see different takes on the same concept.

-Like we said, h/c and Sam-centric.

-Feedback is love. If you liked it, leave a comment!

-Use the code below if your fic/art contains potential triggers (non/dub-con, abuse, self-harm, etc.):

-NO SPOILERS FOR UNAIRED EPISODES. Please be courteous and post spoiler warnings for recently aired episodes. Use the following code for spoilers:

-No spamming.

-Play nice and have fun!

The mods will update the post with a masterlist of prompts/fills periodically throughout the meme. If you notice a prompt or a fill missing from the masterlist, please poke

quickreaver or

cowboyguy and we'll get that updated as soon as we can.

So get ready, unleash ~~your inner demons~~ your creativity, and start prompting!

Masterlist of Fills

Were It Not That I Have Bad Dreams by intrepidsilt
Also on AO3
Prompt: Cage nightmares, a little bit of h/c from Dean when Sam has nightmares about the Cage. Whatever form that takes, I'm easy!

And The House Burned by

foodthatsblue
Prompt: Based on a quote from Bobby in 5x21

“Back at Niveus? I watched that kid pull one civilian out after another. Must have saved 10 people. Never stopped. Never slowed down. We’re hard on him Dean. Always have been. But in the meantime... he’s been running into burning buildings since he was, what... 12?”

I wanna see Sam, 12, running into a burning building to save people. Why not add in some protective Dean and John freaking out that his youngest has run straight into a burning building?

Prompt: Dean finds and follows a blood trail left in the snow/sand/forest, and finds a pale and bleeding-out Sam at the end of it.

Tree Hugger by

mentholpixie
Prompt: Sam developed psychic abilities at a younger age. Telekinesis, visions, seeing the dead, whatever you choose, whatever age. But how does the Winchester family deal with it? Is the hunting community aware? And what sort of toll do these abilities take on a young Sam?

Find No Scar by

hollyhobbit44
Prompt: Sam actually kills himself to keep from being Lucifer's vessel. And Lucifer keeps him promise to just bring him back.

The Space Between by

clown_or_midget
Prompt: Sam and Dean are fighting again about Jack. Dean says some hurtful words to Sam. Jack is watching all this and becomes stressed. His stress opens the door to the alternate world. But not only that, it also opens the door to the cage. Sam and Jack get sucked into the cage while Mary comes back. After some time, Jack was finally able to get them back to the bunker. Cue guilty Dean taking care of Sam, with Mary and Jack helping.

The Hearts of the Fathers by keepcalmsmile
Prompt: Reverse Mystery Spot situation: Dean is the one who has to watch Sam die repeatedly, for whatever reason. Season, cause, etc., all up to author!

Prompt: In the cage, Lucifer offered Sam and Adam the same deal Alistair offered Dean: he'll stop torturing them if they torture each other. Sam doesn't take it. Adam does.
Bonus points if you include Sam dealing with his feelings about Adam once he got out: anger, fear, forgiveness, regret, compassion etc

A Soul for a Soul by

Prompt: Someone else requested Sam losing a leg -- I'd like to see him lose an arm, and see him getting used to trying to do things one-handed. Ending up in tears because he can't figure out how to put his watch on his remaining wrist. Forgetting he's only got one arm and trying to carry a lot of stuff and then realizing he's got no way to open a door. Just all of the frustration that comes with having to re-learn how to do a lot of things, and Dean helping him through it.

Tell Me You Understand by

broken_cinders
Prompt: Sam's a teenager, so Dean and John expect that he's going to go through one of those moody phases where he hates talking to his family, but this is just getting ridiculous. Half the time Sam doesn't even answer them, and both of them are getting frustrated with Sam's attitude. They don't realize, though, that Sam is slowly starting to lose his hearing -- he's not ignoring them, he's just not hearing them.

After Hours by

lennelle
Prompt: Post episode 7.17, The Born Again Identity, Sam withdraws from all the crap he was given at the hospital.

Fine by face70
Prompt: Anything with Sam freaking out about Lucifer being in the bunker in S11 (either just because of cage memories, or because Lucifer actually does something). Sam&Dean gen.

It Had to Be You by face70
Prompt: Tim and Reggie (from 5x03) are still alive. Sam runs into them on a hunt. They’re not happy about their last encounter.

Anywhere But Here by

lennelle
Prompt: Sam has a kind of supernatural synesthesia. Which might be great when he's hunting, because he can recognize monsters by the color or sound or whatever that they give off. It's less good when he's faced with beings like Lucifer and other big bads, whose power creates an overwhelming sensory experience.

It Had to Be You by face70
Prompt: Sam contracts mono early at Stanford and essentially loses the semester, and then his scholarship. With nowhere to go and no way to pay, he attempts suicide. The school contacts Bobby, who tracks down John and Dean. Dean arrives in California to save the day. Gen please. :)

Ooooh I'd love to write this!

Not sure how well this turned out, but I hope it's what you're looking for!

...

In hindsight, it was a stupid idea. You should have known that Lucifer would follow through with his promise, but you thought that it couldn't hurt to try. Turns out you were oh so wrong.

After he'd visited you, all you could think about was how much sense everything made now. You didn't want to believe that you were his vessel - you still don't - but the more you thought about it, the more the pieces clicked into place. All your life you'd been the 'freak', the outsider. Everything good you'd ever had had eventually turned sour in your mouth, and anything good you'd ever tried to do had gone wrong. This was why demons had followed you around your entire life. This was why you poisoned everything you touched. This was why you had pure evil running through your veins, and this was why Dad wanted you to die.

As you thought about Dad, an idea formed in your mind. It wasn't necessarily a good idea, or a smart one, but the time for smart evasion tactics were over. You'd tried that, and he'd found you anyway. So.

If this worked (and it had to work) the world wouldn't end. So maybe Lucifer would still be roaming the earth. But his vessel was falling apart, and without his true vessel he could never hope to take on Michael and win. Besides, Dean and Bobby and Cas would do just fine without you. They'd figure out a way to stop the fight from ever happening in the first place. And a world without you in it to screw it up more than it already was would surely be a better world. It was a win-win situation really.

You knew that Lucifer had said he would bring you back if you killed yourself. In the back of your mind you knew he wasn't lying. Trouble is, you didn't care. Dad had been right all along; removing yourself from the equation was the best course of action. That way it was only you who would get hurt. Dean probably didn't even care anyway, probably thought you were off living your forgotten apple pie dream and wouldn't bother to contact you ever again. Maybe Lucifer would bring you back. Maybe he wouldn't. Either way, you had to try.

You weren't sure how you wanted to do it. A gun would be the quickest, but it would also alert the neighbours, which wasn't exactly ideal. You could use a rope, but you didn't trust the shitty motel fixings to be strong enough to hold you. You looked down at your wrists and traced the veins up your arm. You had a razor in your bag, and plenty of sharpened knives that would do the trick just as easily. You took one out and lightly dragged the tip along the pale skin, leaving behind a white imprint that quickly faded away. You nodded to yourself and grasped the blade tighter, heading towards the small bathroom.

As you lay back in the too small tub you wondered if Lucifer was watching you. Laughing, maybe, at your sheer stupidity and ignorance. You decided you didn't care.

The first cut hurt and you wondered if you would ever get used to being sliced up. Not that it mattered anymore. With shaking hands, you opened you other wrist and dropped the blade over the side of the bath, breathing heavily. The pain in your arms had faded to a dull, stinging throb and you watched in almost fascination as red painted the pale white skin and dripped down into the water in thin, spidery lines. Your head began to feel too heavy to hold up so you rested it against the dirty porcelain, lazily noting the numerous cracks in the ceiling. Maybe it would fall in and finish the job for you.

Your eyes fluttered shut and your breaths became fewer, and further between. As you faded away, a sense of catharsis washed over you, and a slow smile briefly spread across your face as you revelled in the knowledge that you had at least done one good thing for this world.

You woke up to see Lucifer's face leering over you, and you thought that maybe you had gone to Hell. Then he moved away and you realised that you were still floating in the scarlet water, your wrists somehow sealed shut.

"Hey Sam," Lucifer sneered, then grabbed you by your shirtfront and hauled you out the water. You tried to get up, but he pushed you back down so you lay dripping wet at his feet.

"You know," he started, almost conversationally. "I honestly didn't take you for an idiot. Dean, sure, but you? Come on, Sam, you know better than this. We're alike, you and I, so surely you know I don't go back on my word."

"I am not like you," you ground out.

Lucifer laughed. "Really? Okay, let's see. Younger brother with unresolved issues against a domineering older brother? Check. Rebelling against Daddy's orders because you knew they were complete bullshit? Check. Trying to do what you think is right, only to get shot down and cast out for it? Check."

"No."

Lucifer smirked and shook his head. "Deny yourself the truth if you want, Sam, but deep down you know you are just like me. Which is why, by the way, you will say yes to me."

You opened your mouth to protest, but Lucifer raised a hand and suddenly you couldn't speak. "Look. Just apologise and we'll sweep this one under the rug, alright? I'll leave, you can go back to your pathetic little lie, and everything will turn out fine in the end."

You glared at him in defiance, so he sighed and clenched his fist. You chocked, unable to breathe, and clawed at the floor. "I've tried being nice, Sam. But I'm tired of it, and I'm tired of your resistance, so I guess I'll just have to teach you a little respect."

He released his hold on you and you gasped for breath, but your relief was short-lived as he began landing blows on your stomach, your chest, your face, anywhere he could reach. You tried fighting back, but the archangel was strong, so you curled into a ball and watched your blood drip onto the tile beneath you.

When he was done, you were a beaten and bruised mess. He surveyed you for a moment before snapping his fingers, healing you instantly. You didn't uncurl yourself straight away, though, too tired to move.

"Consider that your final warning," Lucifer threatened, then disappeared.

After he left, you found yourself more determined than ever to beat him. You try to die twice more before returning to Dean, once by shooting yourself, once by an overdose of meds, because you still figured that it was better you die than stay alive. Neither attempt works, however, and each time Lucifer appeared angrier than before. He rained hell down on you, leaving you good as new.

He told you he had to heal you fully, not wanting a damaged vessel. He didn't seem to know that he had one already.

So very chilling! You really captured Lucifer's voice so well, and I loved that final line about Sam being a 'damaged' vessel. Thank you for sharing :)
