Lately, I've been on a time travel kick. I'm hoping that the fine folks of spnstoryfinders can help scratch my itch.
1. Specific fic: A time travel story I read years ago remains elusive. All I remember is that: Sam travels back in time to the teen!chester days as an adult and works as a hunter, teaming up with John (and possibly some combination of the boys) on a hunt(s); adult!Sam is filled with self-hatred, which comes out as disdain and/or aggression towards young!Sam; and at one point, John compares adult!Sam to a soldier he'd known in Vietnam, who kept body parts (ears?) as trophies.
2. General rec: I'm also looking for fic wherein the boys (Dean, Sam, and/or Cas) time-travel to some era in which they did not live. Here are some examples that I've read and enjoyed:
Strangers in Gilead

River of Blood
https://www.fanfiction.net/s/4678471/1/River-of-BloodSam & Dean & the (American) Civil War. "A summoning ritual backfires. Instead of drawing the restless spirit of Cpl. Leamon Griffith to them, Sam and Dean find themselves catapulted to the side of the young Union soldier, just hours before he goes MIA - in 1863. Set S3 after BDABR."
Thank you!
