Gifts for me!

I got a very fun Sam/Dean sex pollen story from ephemeralk, Botany of Desire, for spn_j2_xmas! Dean deliberately goes after sex pollen. This is either his best idea ever or his worst. Sam’s voting for the latter, until things start to go his way.

And another plug for my Yuletide gift, Simple Gifts, The Pretender, Jarod/Miss Parker, General Audiences
Summary: Jarod investigates troubling shortages at a half-way house/shelter that serves displaced and homeless veterans. Along the way he discovers that family is about more than just blood relation.

This case fic gives a really detailed treatment of the family Jarod finds, and into which he’s welcomed. The warmth and love is palpable; the case has a great Pretender feel, including some false steps towards finding the real bad guy and a ‘taste of his own medicine’ punishment for the bad guy; the end has just enough Jarod/Miss Parker to satisfy without getting explicit, and it makes sense for the characters that their moves toward each other would be tentative.

There But for the Grace, SPN, Sam/Dean part 1

There But for the Grace
Pairing: Sam/Dean
Rating: NC-17
Word Count: ~26,000
Warnings: extremely dubious consent and one instance of mild consensual bondage.
Summary: The seals broke; Lucifer rose. But somewhere else, another Sam cut a deal with Lilith, and now Dean’s gone to a life where Castiel never gripped him tight and raised him from perdition. As Sam struggles to fight off a newly risen Lucifer with only Castiel to aid him, Dean contends with a brother gone almost all the way down the road to Hell. He might not just lose one world and one brother to apocalypse, but two. (AU from the end of Season 4.)

For runedgirl. I tried to go with power dynamics with toppy possessive Sam, and just a little soulmates and soulbonding. Thanks to giandujakiss for quick beta!
