A Dean-focused h/c comment fic & art meme [Click on the image to go to the meme.]

A few ground-rules:
01. As for what type of thing you should be prompting here, this is a Dean-focused hurt/comfort community, so Dean should be the one in the hurt/comforted role. Your prompts may involve sick!Dean, (yes, please!) angsty!Dean, hurt!Dean, or anything else that results in Dean being on the receiving end of hurt/comfort.
02. Comment to this post with your desired characters or pairings, if any, and a prompt. All genres/pairings are welcome, however this is not an RPF meme. Please focus on the fictional characters only.
Example A: “Sam, Dean, gen, set in season 8. PTSD!Dean has a flashback to Purgatory on a hunt and crap goes down. Cue guilty, upset Dean and awesome, comforting Sam.” Example B: “Sam/Dean, fever. Dean has the chills and there is cuddling, naaw.”
03. You can leave as many prompts as you like, but one prompt per comment, please. If you've got a few, comment with each separately.
04. Your prompts can be as short or as detailed as you’d like.
05. Scroll through the comments and when/if you find a prompt you like, write a fic or create some art in reply to the comment.
06. More than one response to a prompt is totally acceptable, and in fact encouraged. The more, the better!
07. Art submissions are very much accepted! Art larger than 800 px or so should be posted as a thumbnail that links back to the full art, please.
08. When replying to a prompt with your comment-fic or art, put 'FILLED' in your subject line as well as warning for anything that might be triggering, such as non-con, self-harm, etc. You can add anything else you want too, ie: a title if you have one/part numbers. So, your subject line should look something like this:
FILLED: Title, Character(s), genre/pairing(s), Rating, Warning(s) - if any
For further clarification:
Example: FILLED: Untitled, Dean and Sam, gen, PG-13, self-harm
It’s not a big deal if you don't do all of this, but using 'FILLED' as well as warnings will make it easier for people to find your fic, and for the mods when we’re compiling the masterlist.
09. Anonymous posting is enabled in case you’re embarrassed by your schmoopiest of schmoopy hurt/comfort fantasies or something, haha. IP logging will also be off during the weeks the meme is at its most active.
10. No spoilers for upcoming episodes, please. I don't actually know if we have any S10 spoilers, but if we do, please put them under a spoiler cut!
Do the same for anything that might be triggering, such as non-con, self-harm, etc.
11. Likewise, no character bashing, or rudeness in general. Be respectful - of the characters, and of each other. The mods reserve the right to delete inappropriate comments.
12. Do feed your authors/artists! They’re awesome.
13. If you want to advertise this, that’s fantastic! It would be really appreciated. Just copy and paste the code provided above into your journal.
Oh, and just a few things!
FAQ:
Yes, if your fic gets too long for a comment-fic, you can comment with the link to it at your LJ.
Yes, you can totally post the fics/art you write/create for this meme directly to the comm as well. In fact, this is strongly encouraged!
Because it bears repeating - yes, art is more than welcome as well as fic.
As for a timeframe - this post will be open for prompting between one and two weeks or so. There’s no exact timeframe, because we play it by ear and don’t close it until we see it’s starting to slow down. In any case, it will stay open indefinitely for new fills and comments/feedback.
