Title: Other People's Promises
Summary: Dean is forever making promises he can't keep. Tag/coda/thing to 5.22.
Warnings: Very mild swearing.
Wordcount: 1,625
Spoilers: 5.22 & all aired episodes, to be on the safe side.
Disclaimer: Kripke's toys, I'm just playing with them while he's busy running away from hordes of rabid fangirls.
Neurotic Author's Note: This isn't a fix-it fic. Not even remotely. But the end of 5.22 isn't really the end, as we all know, and this is what I think might happen behind the scenes.
Neurotic Author's Note #2: For the record, roque_clasique did this way better than I did. I'm posting it anyway, because I legitimately had the idea on my own and wanted to write it. That being said, her fic is a jewel, so you should go read it. Home Safe.
Neurotic Author's Note # 3: If, like me, you're a wreck after 5.22, you may not want to read this. It's not a happy fic. I haven't been able to read unhappy fic without bawling like a calf, although for some strange reason writing it doesn't appear to be a problem. I dunno, I got nothin'.

This is a Congratulations For Finishing Your Thesis Fic for authoressnebula, who is both talented and awesome. She requested more Sam whumpage, and who am I to say no? :)

Title: Heaven Without You
Summary: Sam gets taken by hunters, who have nothing pleasant in mind for him.
Spoilers: Gigantic, massive spoilers for 5.16, and general spoilers for all of Season 5.
Word Count: 7,842
Warnings: The usual bad language, a bit of gore.
Disclaimer: I'm not so much playing in Kripke's sandbox as I am standing with my nose pressed right up to the fence that keeps me away from the sandbox, sighing longingly at all the shiny toys in it. In short: not mine, please don't sue.
Neurotic Author's Note: Congratulations, authoressnebula, on finishing your thesis! You rock! Have some hurt!Sam and protective!Dean as your reward. :)
Neurotic Author's Note #2: I watched 5.16 yesterday and it broke me even worse than 5.14, and I didn't think that was possible. It made me SO GODDAMNED SAD that I had to make an attempt to fix things in my head, and this is the result.
Neurotic Author's Note #3: No beta, very little revision, and I'm not 100% happy with some of it, but I'm posting anyway, because history has shown me that my neuroses often have very little basis in reality.
Neurotic Author's Note #4: *cough* Yeah, I know, I could have been writing my BigBang, but, you know how it goes...

Title: We Will Not Regret The Past, Nor Wish To Shut The Door On It
Summary: In spite of her better judgment, Lindsey goes to set the record straight with Sam after the events of "Free To Be You and Me."
Spoilers: Up to the end of 5.04 "The End."
Characters/Pairings: Sam/Lindsay, brief appearance by Dean (sort of)
Rating: NC-17, God help me
Word Count: 6,743
Warnings: Uh, sex. NSFW.
Disclaimer: The closest I have ever come to owning anything related to SPN is that I once read a couple of Misha Collins' tweets. I don't even have Twitter, I borrowed someone else's. So, uh, yeah. I got nothin'. If Kripke knew what I get up to with his creations, he'd probably take me out behind a shed and shoot me.
Neurotic Author's Note: I kind of banged this together on a whim. I haven't re-read it or proofread it or even spell-checked, because I am too fucking chicken. See Neurotic Author's Note #3.
Neurotic Author's Note #2: Okay, so I really liked Lindsey and was annoyed she got so little screen time, so I decided to write a quick thing about her going to ask Sam to explain the whole apocalypse deal. It was going to be a quickie, maybe 500 words, nothing big. So that didn't work out as planned.
Neurotic Author's Note #3: Oh, dear God, I wrote PORN. Full-on heterosexual sex. *headdesk* IDEK. /o\ Please please PLEASE be nice in your comments, even if it's terrible. Oh God, oh God, oh God. You can tell me if it sucks, just... be nice about it. I can take it, mostly. I can't believe I'm actually posting this. I think I may find a convenient rock to hide under in the meantime. GAH.
Neurotic Author's Note #4: The title is taken from one of the "promises" from Alcoholics Anonymous. Just FYI.
