Criminal Minds/Supernatural
The Time Has Come to Be Gone by jujuberry136
A really enjoyable SPN/Criminal Minds crossover - the writing is a little clunky, and it doesn't take into account the state of Sam and Dean's relationship in early season 5, but the outsider POV on Sam and Dean, plus the interaction between the BAU team and the Winchesters, is a lot of fun.

"Fuck mankind!" / "And womenkind," Sam says, waggles a finger, trying to be fair and non gender-specific. "Fuck womenkind, too." / Dean cuffs him on the back of the head. "What, I teach you nothin', Sam? You can fuck mankind - but you gotta make love to womenkind. Show the ladies some respec', huh?" Sam and Dean get their drink on after they save the world. Adorable. *happy sigh*

I tried, you want to say. I tried everything I could, and nothing worked. But you can see it in his eyes: you didn't try hard enough. You just failed, all over again. After that, you suck Ruby's blood like a fucking vampire, and you don't care. This time you won't fail. This time you'll save him. You'll save the world. Absolutely heartbreaking look at Sam, post 4.22. The second person POV really works here.

In the aftermath of 4.22, Sam starts seeing dead people. Well, more than usual. Dean tries to deal. Lovely bit of reconciliation between them. Also, I really like Sam hanging out with Chuck.

That was twice now that Zachariah had tried to reduce Dean into an eating-and-fucking golem, a mindless beast that could be controlled with fresh meat and other, more delectable flesh. / Zachariah hadn't counted on his little helper, his mud-monkey, his weapon of choice having a memory, or at least fragments of one that he could slide together to stay whole, stay strong, even after his descent into hell, where he was harrowed for longer than he'd been alive. / And Dean remembered. Maybe not everything, maybe not always clearly, but that simply meant he was human. Sam, Dean, Castiel and bumper cars. Adorable.

Interesting, heartbreaking story in which Dean's not the weapon, he's the trap. AU from 4.22

Lovely, melancholy Dean/Ellen set in the interstices of 5.02.
True Believer by debbiel66
Interesting story that casts Ruby and Azazel as Sam's shadow parents, watching over him and waiting for him to come into his own. Especially chilling are Azazel's reasons for leaving him with John.

Dean sighed, and did exactly what he'd been doing since Sam was seven and huffing because Dean was telling him it was bedtime. He caved. He did his level best to look innocent as he stepped on Sam's toes on the way to the door, though. Sam and Dean stop for waffles. Hilarity ensues.

Gorgeous, lyrical look at s1 Sam realizing that maybe he wants to stay, wants to hunt. Lovely.
