Title: Never Leavin'
Author: shay_reynolds / Etta James
Recipient: tigriswolf
Rating: PG-13.
Author's Notes: ~2,200 words. Supernatural belongs to Kripke and the CW. Thanks to m. who did the amazing beta on this one. Prompt was from tigriswolf and is the song “You'll Never Leave Harlan Alive” by Brad Paisley. Spoilers for parts of season two.
Summary: Sometimes songs actually lend more to reality than people might think. The brothers are confronted with ghosts of the labour problems long since past in Harlan.

( Dean threw the paper down in front of Sam, the lyrics fluttering with it and he was almost unsurprised to see his little brother just stare up at him with incredulity on his face. )

Author's Notes: 4480 words. angstslashhope requested: 1. Anything focused on the fact that John was caring for an infant/young children in his early hunting years; 2. Either of the boys going through growing-up milestones (learning to talk/walk/pee standing up/whatever!) and 3. Family domesticity. She gets all three.

Summary: Sammy needs a haircut.

( John marks his place in the text with a little stick figure-decorated scrap of paper he finds on the table. One of Dean’s masterpieces, he guesses. )

Title: The relative quality of Dean’s deodorant
Author: estei / Lou Reed
Recipient: marinarusalka
Rating: PG-13 (language)
Author’s notes: 1,974 words. For marinarusalka, who requested a classic hurt/comfort where one of the boys gets sick/injured and the other fusses. This is not the original story I started for this prompt, which has turned into a behemoth on my computer. marinarusalka, when that story is finished it will be dedicated to you. Until then, I hope this suffices.
Summary: Sam should have just let Dean vaporize the pixie nest.

( Dean thinks they’re okay until Sam comments on the size of his antlers. )
