SPN/BtVS; Sam/Buffy (Sam/Ruby); vague spoilers through SPN 4.14 & BtVS 7.22 (no comics canon); adult; 3,830 words
"I didn't ask for it. Nobody asks for it, Sam. It's the superpowers lottery. Tag, you're it."

Thanks to innie_darling for helping me figure this out, and to amberlynne for handholding. LJ-versary fic!

( fruit of the poisonous tree : n. in criminal law, the doctrine that evidence discovered due to information found through illegal search or other unconstitutional means (such as a forced confession) may not be introduced by a prosecutor. The theory is that the tree (original illegal evidence) is poisoned and thus taints what grows from it. )

This was absolutely wonderful. I think my absolutely favorite part was Dean and Dawn bonding over mutually being grossed out.

Thanks so much! And that is so totally the universal sibling response to that.

Wow, this is perfect! And Dawn would bond with Dean. You know, Spike probably taught her all about how to hotwire an Impala..

Thanks so much! And Dawn would totally glom onto Dean. Girl knows a good thing when she sees one.

This was delightful! I never thought of that demon blood parallel, but it works really well!

Thank you! I've been trying to make the demon blood thing in since they revealed it on SPN, so I'm glad I finally managed it.

Yay crossover! Love the parallels in the mythologies and I think you have Buffy's voice down perfectly.
