Master Post
Here is a master list of all my Supernatural fic, with embedded links. All are canon-based and include a healthy dose of case-fics, set between canon hunts, and missing scenes.
TITLE Blood
SUMMARY: Tag to Alex, Annie, Alexis, Anne. After Sam was drained of most of his blood, he made it down those basement stairs only by leaning heavily on Dean and…then they cut to commercial. Sigh. This tag takes place during that missing chunk of time, and offers some Sam POV on the MoC-fueled changes in Dean.
SPOILERS: Refers to events throughout Season 9.
RATING: T for some swearing.

TITLE: Puppetmaster
SUMMARY: As Sam recovers from knee surgery, he's hit with violent visions that will, ultimately, put both Winchester brothers' lives in jeopardy. Multi-chapter follo to Bridging Two Solitudes.
SPOILERS: Set late in Season 2.
AUTHOR'S NOTE: The story picks up on the knee injury Sam suffered in Bridging Two Solitudes, and aggravated in Grave Consequences, but stands independently of both. If you haven't read those stories, the only thing you really need to know is that the O/C Doc, who makes an extended cameo appearance here, is a surgeon based out of Stanford Medical Center whom the brothers have known since Sam was 12. She lost her own family to a supernatural tragedy and, after that, became part of the support network for hunters. The story is set mid-to-late Season 2 - with much whumpage ahead on both sides of the Winchester fence. Really, I can't help myself. :)

SUMMARY: After the crash in In My Time of Dying, how did the Colt get in the trunk? Following the collision with the semi, Sam comes to and holds off the possessed driver at gunpoint. But in the hospital, when John asks where the Colt is, Sam says, "In the trunk." Here's my take on how it got there. It's also my attempt to explain the time lag between the crash when it's pitch black, and the rescue when the sun's high in the sky. Spoilers for Devil's Trap and In My Time of Dying.

TITLE: What's in a Name?
SUMMARY: Battling a concussion-fuelled headache, Dean develops an irrational dislike for a town's name. One-shot.
