From the Flint Hills to that Possessed Chicken Farm (This Land Was Made for You and Me) by

regala_electraBecause Dean loves going down on girls and I love reading about him doing it. Exceptionally hot.
In Sight by
pheebs1Dean POV of "Unseeing," (previously recced), the story in which Dean and Petra first meet. *sniffle* Lovely.
The Larks, Still Bravely Singing by
kajikiaIntense, relentless, gritty AU where Sam and Dean are in the army during WWII, marching across Europe, fighting the good fight. (wincest)
Make the Yuletide Gay by
nomelonLovely, quiet, hot coda to 3.08. Dean gives Sam a shave, and things go places neither of them is expecting. A little on the nose/heavy-handed with the emotional exposition, but there is shaving and frottage and it is sweet. (Wincest)
A Mask to Come Undone by

No one you can save who can't be saved by
black_regaliaSam was just Sam. A constant. Something around which Dean defines his life. Dean, dealing with hope and despair, in the aftermath of his deal. Heartbreaking. Could use a good polish, but definitely worth reading.

Rock Salt, Iron Rounds, and Devil's Traps in Pen by
