Winchester Festival of Hurt/Comfort, a Supernatural Master's List of Comment Fics
PROMPTS // FILLS
MASTER'S LIST
Prompt: My city just came out of a record-breakingly cold winter. I'm talking -50 Fahrenheit. A lot of people still had to walk to work and school (seriously, nothing was cancelled. what the heck), which proved to be pretty dangerous because I guess people with asthma are pretty sensitive to cold weather and do you see where I'm going with this? (Get creative... I just love environmentally induced asthma problems!!)

Fic - You Take the Breath Out of Me
Prompt: Early season 9, AU so Cas doesn't have to leave the bunker, maybe there IS no Gadreel at all, too.
Cas has nightmares in the bunker. Sam and/or Dean is awakened by them one night, and comforts Cas and helps him through it.

Fic - Breath of Fresh Air
Prompt: Sam is turned away when he tries to donate blood during college -- there's something Not Quite Right that they just can't figure out (it's the demon blood, although Sam obviously doesn't know it yet), so he waves it off and leaves the donation center, spending the rest of the day full of anxieties and confusions having to do with his feeling inherently impure. Maybe someone (Jess, Dean, a friend, a stranger?) is able to cheer him up a little and distract him from his insecurities.

Fic - Because You're the Type to Save a L ife
Prompt: Let's say it's the first time Sam's around on a hunt when Dean gets hurt seriously. He's hurt enough that he can't possibly deal with his own wounds, but he's conscious enough to walk Sam through it (maybe talking Sam through his first stitches). And then Sam's totally nervous and panicking because he's never done it before and he doesn't want to hurt Dean, and Dean has to be the one comforting his little brother.

Fic - First Stitches
Prompt: Early season 6, post "You Can't Handle The Truth." Both brothers are injured somehow. Dean's injuries are obvious and Soulless!Sam tends to them, much to Dean's chagrin. Soulless!Sam does not acknowledge his own - maybe he's unenthusiastic about accepting treatment from the guy who pulped his face so recently, maybe he just doesn't like to acknowledge weakness, maybe he legit doesn't care. Either way, they turn out to be reasonably problematic not long after and require care.

Fic - If I'm Not Dying
Prompt: Stomach flu/Food poisoning!Dean, with all the gastrointestinal distress that comes with that. Cue Mother Hen!Sam....when he finds out what Dean's been hiding all day.

Fic - The Sandwich from Hell
Prompt: Problem: They're both exhausted and sick, and it's pouring down raining and this is the only hotel around for miles. But it only has one room left, with one bed and a couch. Solve.

Fic - No Beds At The Inn
Prompt: The boys have been burning the midnight oil for a while. Maybe they're rushing to get a hunt done (graves found and dug, lunar cycle is right now!), maybe they can't sleep because of what they're hunting (witch, demon that invades dreams,etc). I would love to see them struggling to stay awake, choking down coffee and energy drinks or just running on sheer willpower. And when it's all over and they're tempted just to sleep in the Impala still parked next to the graveyard,etc, encouraging each other to find someplace safe to sleep before they both crash for real. Or being so tired that they don't think they'll be able to fall asleep and then passing out at a diner or a bar.

Fic - Playing With Magic
Prompt: If Sam can't stop Dean from dying the least he can do is help him die in a less painful way. Basically, Sam killing Dean in humane ways and becoming slowly more desensitized to it and numb with every Tuesday.
Filled by evelyncarver
Fic - I Had To
Prompt: Sam is maybe pretty banged up after a hunt, or perhaps he's got something else going on that needs to be checked out, and while he's filling out paperwork Dean keeps correcting him because of course Dean knows more about Sam than Sam does himself. Bonus points for Sam trying to argue that Dean is wrong ("I'm not allergic to that"/"I never had surgery for that"/"I never came down with that" et cetera) and Dean having to bring his brother down memory lane, so to speak.

Fic - You Know Me Better Than I Know Myself
Note: After writing this fic, an idea popped into my head. I decided to write a prequel. Here's what the prompt would've been
Prompt: Stanford era, Sam/Jess. An embarrassing accident happens and causes Sam a bad allergic skin reaction. He doesn't wanna tell Jess, which is made even harder when she's all turned on and trying to turn him on as well. He looks like an ass and she's just sad... but then she finds out and takes care of him. Bonus for kinky!Jess.

Fic - A Cure For the Itch
Prompt: Has anyone else heard of that thing where people with different blood types have different dietary preferences? For example... blood type O is very "meat and potatoes", prefers a lot of protein and heavy/savory foods, whereas blood type A is more sensitive and drawn to organic, natural foods (lots of vegetables, nuts, etc.) and is prone to feeling a little sick after eating a lot of processed foods. Sound familiar? Anyway, I keep thinking about that time in "Dog Dean Afternoon" when Dean made a reference to Sam having a sensitive stomach aaaand, man, I don't have much of an idea on where I'm going with this but maybe if someone wants to play around with the idea... that would be so cool..

Fic - Care For The Careless
Prompt: Dean pisses off a witch who happens to be all cranky because of an ear infection... he says that ear infections are something only toddlers get. (S)he takes revenge by giving Dean and ear infection AND turning him into a toddler.
Now Sam has a very cranky, whiny little big brother on his hands now (so not his field of expertise!) and he's far away from Bobby who says, over the phone, that the spell will likely wear off when Dean recovers. Cas could get called in, but he isn't able to help except maybe to give Sam a chance to sleep while Dean keeps crying. At first the de-age is physical, but Dean isn't acting like it and he keeps mentally declining.
Bonus points for Dean demanding alcohol and Sam denying him.

Fic - You Are What You Do
Prompt: Any season, I just want to see seasick Dean. Can be on a hunt, a vacation, anything. It just turns out that even though they don't terrify him, Dean's stomach still can't handle boats any better than planes. ;)

Fic - Sometimes The Cure...
Prompt: Season 9, during the time Dean is temporarily not living at the bunker: Cas can’t eat PB&J now since he thinks it tastes awful, so Sam decides to finish his sandwich instead of throwing it away since it actually sounds good to him right now. While he’s eating it, Cas slams a door too hard down the hall, startling him and making him breathe in a piece. He can’t cough it up or swallow it down, and after a while is about to lose consciousness. Castiel comes back into the room to look for something, sees what is happening, and tries to use his “mojo” to fix it. But he still hasn’t mastered the foreign grace and it doesn’t work, so he has to help Sam the way humans do. How Cas learned to do that is up to you, but Sam is very glad he did.

Fic - Take Care
Prompt: RPF? Back when they're sharing a house, Jared gets sick and stays home while Jensen goes to work. Jared doesn't want to stay in bed, but the couch isn't big enough to comfortably stretch out on, either. Jen comes home to find that Jared has made a nest of blankets on the living room floor and is sprawled across it, drooling on his pillow with the TV playing softly.

Fic - Big Things, Little Packages
Prompt: Pre-series. Sam is sick with a bad cold/cough, and they've been driving all day because there's a hunt in another town and John wants to get there by that night. So John's in his truck and Dean and teen Sam (like 15-17 years old) are following behind in the Impala. Sam is sick and miserable all day, but as they day goes on, he gets worse, and eventually spikes a really high fever. So Sam is all loopy and super feverish, and Dean is torn between doing what John wants to do, and giving John a call and just demanding that they stop somewhere and take care of Sam.
Filled by evelyncarver
Fic - Tug of War
Prompt: Sam hasn't been sleeping well. More importantly -- according to Dean, anyway -- Dean hasn't been sleeping well, on account of Sam's monster snoring. Finally, they figure maybe something's up, and Sam goes to a doctor, who diagnoses him with sleep apnea.

Fic - Gasp
Prompt: While Sam was at Stanford, Dean's vision started going fuzzy and he ended up going to the optometrist for a prescription (per John's orders). Once he picks up Sam from school and they're back on the road again, he tries to be all sneaky about taking his contacts out at night and putting them on in the morning, hiding the case for his glasses, whatever. Of course Sam catches him eventually, and come on, Dean, it's really not a big deal. Why are you so embarrassed?

Fic - Road to Rosedale, 2001
Prompt: Maybe it's just something about looking at one show from the perspective of another show. Anyway! Does anyone remember Scrubs? I mean, it's a hospital show... if someone wants to put one (or both) of the boys at Sacred Heart then that would just be, like, the coolest. Doesn't even matter what reason -- sickness, injury, whatever. Bonus points if the other brother argues with one of the doctors over his treatment.

Fic - Harrison Kelso Tries to Help
Prompt: Sam takes a bad fall or something during a hunt and injures both shoulders, so now he pretty much can't raise his arms any higher than his elbows will bend. Dean washes, dries, and brushes his hair for him.

Fic - Because You're Worth It
Prompt: I want one of the Winchester brothers to donate something to the other. It can be anything from blood or bone marrow to a kidney or something more. Today I started thinking about Dean knowing that he's going to die (at the end of s3) and thinking about how instead of getting ripped apart by hell hounds, he could die a few hours earlier, not go in pain and donate his organs to those that need them. (It was becoming this whole Faith Au where Sam was the one with the bad heart). . .

Fic - Don't Worry About Me (I'm Just Bleeding Out)
Prompt: Remember the Changing Channels prompt from tg's meme? This time, they're in a commercial for Bigggerson's All-You-Can-Eat Pie Bar. (Like a salad bar, but with pie!) And maybe Dean is so excited -- they've been in TV land for awhile, okay? -- and he eats so much pie that eventually he makes himself sick.

Fic - Tough Guy
Prompt: Castiel is in the middle of his search for God when something catches him in flight and leaves him (and his wings) badly damaged and a little delirious. Bonus point if Sam finds him. More bonus point if he thinks Sam is Lucifer. It's raining bonus points if a fever makes Cas mumble a few words in Enochian.

Fic - Old Roles and New Pains
Prompt: I like the idea of Sam trying to deal with hating hunting and the life they live through addiction (something like pain meds maybe - which would make him jump in front of the line of fire if it meant getting hurt and being fed a dose of his beloved relief). From then on, there are many possibilities the story could turn to. Dean and/or John could find out, or Sam could accidentally take in a bigger dose than he should've, or he could get into trouble. That's up to you, of course!

Fic - Dazed and Confused
Prompt: Dean has new stitches from a beastie that clawed him in the stomach. But Winchester luck being the way it is, he also has bronchitis.

Dean gets an injury that isn't life-threatening. Sam feels like hovering but Dean is all "yeah, yeah I've had worse, don't worry". But then " Ow fuck, it hurts!" and Sam can't stay back when his brother is whimpering (yeah Dean, it's nothing..right!)

Fic - In Stitches
Prompt: Bobby h/c. Jody or Rufus or the Winchesters, etc stops by to see Bobby after he's in a wheelchair. His house is a mess, he hasn't been able to get in and out on his own, there's no food, he's just been sleeping on the couch and he can't make it upstairs to get blankets or some more clean clothes. Bobby's just happy there's a bathroom on the first floor. Maybe he wants help setting things up, maybe he's going to complain and grumble. I'd just like to see somebody helping Bobby.

Fic - Reap What You Sow
Prompt: Set after 'Road Trip'. Sam suffers from migraines, has since he was a kid. Dean, being an awesome brother, could always tell when one was coming and would stock up on the things that would help Sam get through it. While the boys are separated, Sam gets hit with a doozey of a headache with only Cas to help him. Even though Sam begs him not to tell Dean, Cas realizes that he is out of his element and calls Dean for help. Cue worried!Dean taking care of a very miserable Sam.

Fic - Conceal, Don't Fell
Prompt: Cracky like whoa. Sam and Dean have settled down, and have a house of their own in a nice, quiet neighborhood. One of their neighbors is over, and when she looks in their pantry for something, finds the stock of salt (because 30 years of hunting habits never go away). She wonders what it's for, so Sam quickly makes up a lie that one of Dean's hobbies is pickling cucumbers. So now obviously the neighbor is expecting to try some of these awesome pickles, and Sam forces Dean to learn how to make
them. Dean is not amused.
+
One brother with a severe food allergy (like "Get me an EpiPen NOW!" severe) and the other one makes dinner and doesn't realize he's put some of that food into the meal (it's mixed in with another ingredient or in really tiny print on the label, etc.)

Fic - No More Losing the War
Prompt: How about teenchesters? Sam isn't feeling good, but of course he won't tell Dean and especially not dad! But then thanks to Winchester's luck, it can only get worse to the point where he won't be able to hide it anymore. (ex. appendicitis, meningitis, bad pneumonia) and Dean's mad at him for not telling, but he's also an amazing mother hen, by chance :)

Fic - A Little to the Right
Prompt: Dean has been having a bit of a dry spell with the ladies. Hunting has sapped his....joie de vivre, so to speak. He decides to pop some Viagra before hitting a bar. Unfortunately, he strikes out. Not only does he have the boner that won't quit, it's that boner from the warnings - "if you have an erection lasting 4 hours or more, go to the doctor!". He's horrified to confess his problem to Sam, but he doesn't want to permanently injure his dick either. Finally Sam, aware that something is wrong but not knowing what, weasels it out of Dean. **Bonus points for first time wincest after Dean goes to the ER/doctor!
