Dear chocolatier (Part Two),
Hello, my original post would not let me add this fandom no matter what I did, so I'm making a separate post for it in order to finish this letter. Sorry for the delay and technical difficulties.

NOTE: Hello Supernatural revival! I was a huge fan ~back in the day, but I’ve only fully seen up to Season 5. However, I’ve seen a random handful of eps from the later seasons, and I’m currently rewatching the series from the beginning. Don’t worry about spoiling me because I am absolutely spoiled to hell and back on most plot events. This is your feel free to write or set things in the later seasons card, I simply just want to note that some of my prompts will be more geared towards the earlier seasons or post-series.
Anna Milton/Bela Talbot
I love Bela, even after all these years and I would love to see more exploration of her character, which is why I’ve thrown together all these different ships for her. I always felt like Bela added something unique and interesting to the worldbuilding of the show and I love her ambiguous place within the story. I am sad she died, so all of these will be fix-it fic ideas.
Fix-it fic #1: Anna helps Bela out of her deal in some way. Maybe with time travel—-Anna goes back in time and helps stop Bela from dying via hellhound and then goes around protecting her. Perhaps Anna was a guardian angel before she chose to fall and Bela was one of her charges. I really love the thought of Bela having someone looking out for her. Maybe Anna goes back in time to help teenage Bela before she makes her deal?
Fix-it fic #2: Or maybe she saves her directly from hell! I’d love it if she pulled her out of hell in a similar way Castiel pulled Dean out of hell. Why would she do this? Why is she saving Bela? That’s up to you. I would love Bela to realize she is worth something more than having to go to hell because she wanted to escape years of abuse.
Not really a fix-it, but sort of #3: I’d be down for demon!Bela/angel!Anna. Bela escaping out of hell early on in S4 and teaming up with Anna. Any kind of angel/demon shenanigans is most welcome. Or perhaps newly created demon Bela getting used to what she is and delighting in causing chaos, attracted to Anna the rebellious angel who isn’t anything like she expected an angel to be.
[return to the top]
Bela Talbot/Ruby
And now for an opposite dynamic! I was forever sad that Bela and Ruby never got to meet and interact in S3, what a missed opportunity.
It’d be cool if in S3, they were working together at one point. Maybe Ruby offers to get Bela out of her deal in exchange for help with the Winchesters. Bela and Ruby being amoral and screwing over other people together is great. I’d also love it if Bela was more important to the mytharc of the series, her parallels to Dean and her having her own deal she wants to get out of was never fully explored and I’d love to see Bela working with Ruby for her own ends as well.
Bela wants to know what hell is like. She wishes she didn’t ask.
Or perhaps when Ruby goes back to hell, they meet and once Bela turns into a demon, they work together to try and find their way out.
If you want to write Ruby as good and genuinely interested in helping Bela out of her deal, I would really love that. While I do love ultimate player Ruby, I do wish she was more complicated, so I’d love to see her show a level of empathy and understanding towards Bela. Perhaps they come from similar backstories. If you want to toss in the fact that Ruby was a witch as a human, I’d love that! Or maybe human witch Ruby helping Bela out?
Long-shot, but maybe Ruby possesses Bela’s body in order to help save her, then they have to find Ruby a new body, but also make sure Bela’s body is healed. Both of them sharing a body shenanigans!
[return to the top]
Bela Talbot/Jo Harvelle
Sometimes you want to smush your faves together and see what happens. I am fascinated by the “what could have been” dynamic of Bela and Jo— Bela with her disdain for hunters, and Jo with her desire to hunt. I’d just love anything with these two playing off one another!
Case fic! These two run into each other on a case and absolutely hate each other. Or they end up getting along and have a drink together and really like each other, until they’re realize they’re here at a cross purpose. Or perhaps Jo needs help with a case or the location of a specific artifact and she is given Bela’s name.
Jo and Bela are after the same cursed object. They have to work tonight to destroy it. Bela doesn’t want to because she’s planning on selling it, but she’s gotten into a sticky jam that Jo needs to help her out of.
Bela touches a cursed object and needs Jo’s help. She won't go to the Winchesters. Maybe the help she needs is a ‘fuck or die’ kind of help. Or maybe Jo touches a cursed object and needs to ask Bela for help, maybe Bela strings her along a bit before ultimately helping.
I like the thought of them getting on each other’s nerves, riling each other up, and that escalating to rough sex in the bedroom. I love the juxtaposition of Jo, a lower class girl from the midwest, against Bela’s fancy sheets and dresses, but Bela giving as good as she gets. I also love the differences in their trauma, where Bela’s father was her abuser, while Jo sees her father as her hero. Basically I love the opposites attract nature of these two.
Or an AU where Bela/Jo was a past relationship and post-series, in Jack’s heaven, Jo wants Bela with her, so someone pulls some strings and Jo gets Bela back, but she’s not exactly the same. Hurt/comfort in heaven, please.
[return to the top]
Bela Talbot/Victor Henriksen
My needs are very simple with these two: I just want cop and thief shenanigans, especially after Victor becomes aware of the supernatural. Or perhaps he knows because of trying to track Bela down.
As for prompts, a few places you could go:
Both of them teaming up! Maybe Bela is Victor’s informat on what the Winchesters are doing in exchange for him looking the other way from her crimes, or helping her get away with them. Or maybe Victor needs a guide through this new world he finds himself in.
Something set after Jus in Bello: Victor lives, but just barely and now he has it out for Lilith. He meets and tries to help Bela with her deal in exchange for her helping him take down Lilith. The two of them forced to work together!
Or a post-apocalypse AU—-maybe set in The End verse—-with the two of them are still around and kicking and team up to keep each other safe
ANY kind of Bonnie/Clyde thing—-I love the thought of Victor forced to take up a life of crime and forced out of his FBI job, maybe perhaps because he’s trying to tell his superiors about the supernatural and they think he’s gone off the deep end. Victor ends up working with Bela Talbot of all people.
UST, long lingering looks and moments, ill-advised sex, shady motel rendezvous. Two lonely closed off people coming together. I’d love any small moment between them. Hurt/comfort would be wonderful, either emotional where Bela opens up to him about her past, or physical where Bela patches Victor up.
[return to the top]
Jessica Moore/Jo Harvelle
Jess is a character that I wish we knew more about—she’s so important to Sam specifically, yet we don’t really know who she was as a person, so I’d love any and all takes on her. I’d love for her to meet Jo, who is kind of the opposite of Sam in that she was kept from hunting and wants to hunt, but at the same time, she’s kept in the dark by loved ones. They’d make an interesting pair.
As for prompts:
Maybe Jess had her own secrets, or maybe she’s angry that Sam left when she survived the fire. Or maybe Sam never comes back when he leaves with Dean, and Jess can’t help but dropping out of school and tracking him down. Along her journey, she ends up the roadhouse and meets Jo.
Jess survives the fire, badly scarred and recovering when Sam decides he needs to leave, to keep her out of danger. Once she’s back on her feet, she tries to piece back together her life and figure out what Sam had been hiding from her. Along the way, she ends up a hunter and partnering with Jo, a rookie with more experience and knowledge than she has. Together they fight demons! (and maybe find Sam and Dean).
Or I’d love an AU where Jess and Jo end up at the same college, and Jess falls for the “freak with a knife collection.”
Jo saves Jess, the damsel in distress, from a monster. Jess decides to stick with her. Or at least pay her back with sex. This can be an AU where Jo meets Jess first, or Jess survives and gets left behind.
Jess is a ghost. Jo tries to lay her to rest.
[return to the top]
Dean Winchester/Victor Henrikson
All I want is for Victor to live and for Dean and Victor to kiss! I hate that when these two finally started to bond, and Victor learned Dean wasn’t a bad guy, he died. All that wasted potential of having someone in the FBI that knows what’s really going on. What I want here is fix-its: let them bond more! Let them meet up and work together and have Victor help stop the apocalypse, and then he and Dean can make out.
Victor doesn’t die! Victor ends up being Dean’s FBI guy on the inside, covering for him and Sam to other FBI agents. Or I’d love a sort of OPOV from Victor’s POV on the Winchesters, before and after Jus in Bello where he survives. Basically I’m interested in what Victor is aware of and thinks he knows, and how that shifts later.
Victor quits his job, or loses his job, and goes to Dean for help getting his bearings again. Or decides to start hunting, so Dean trains him. Victor doesn’t need much training in certain areas, but he needs help realizing he has to operate below the radar now. Or Victor survives the explosion, but just barely, and he’s pretty badly scarred. He ends up at Bobby’s looking for the Winchesters in order to help them defeat Lilith
Victor doesn’t die but fakes his death in order to evade questions from his superiors, then hooks back up with the Winchesters. Eventually Dean’s kink for authority figures telling him what to do makes him very weak in the knees for Victor.
Sam POV on Dean/Victor! Maybe he encourages them to bond more, but doesn’t expect them to actually become a couple. Or Victor POV on Sam and Dean as he tries to navigate his messy feelings for Dean, while also believing there’s something messed up between the brothers.
BONUS: This wasn’t in the tagset, but if you have an idea for how to make Dean/Sam/Victor, this is your free space to go ahead and do that. I am really interested in what’s in their files and I assume authorities believe they’re incestuous on some level, so I’d like to see how that factors in when Victor gets closer to them and realizes it’s true.
[return to the top]
NOTE: Moving into my next section of ships, which is heavily focused on Sam/Dean/[Third Person] poly dynamics, I want to preface this with the fact that most of these will have similar themes and plot ideas. Broken down, I really want the Winchesters to have to adjust to a new person in their lives, and adjust to traveling full time with another woman and having to make room for her. If Sam/Dean aren’t already incestuous, I am super interested in how this threesome poly relationship develops with that hanging over them, as an unspoken thing, and how the lady in question ends up feeling about it. Or, if they’re already in a relationship, how they make room between them and their intense codependency. I would love for her to eventually be somewhat okay with Sam and Dean’s relationship, but if she has a hard time with it at first, that’s great.
Bela Talbot/Dean Winchester/Sam Winchester
I can’t see her in a long term relationship with the boys—I don’t see Bela as the settling down type, and even if she was, I doubt she’d be willing to share with another person, especially not with two people so wrapped up in each other like Sam and Dean are—but I really like her ending up in a sexual relationship with them, casually and sporadically.
So Ideas are:
Maybe they have a one night stand when they’re forced to work together on a case and they end up falling into bed together as tensions rise.
Bela touches a cursed object without proper handling gear and needs help getting rid of the curse—it happens to be a fuck or die curse, and she reluctantly calls up the Winchesters in hopes they will come to her aid.
Or maybe they’re trapped in a room together; snowed in and can’t leave, or stuck in an elevator—and they end up fooling around a bit. After getting on each other’s nerves, of course.
Maybe Sam’s Bela dream in Dream A Little Dream Of Me was a threesome dream instead, maybe he accidentally manifests it as reality.
On the less smutty-end of the spectrum, I would love to read Bela’s POV of Sam and Dean, especially from perspective of being a survivor of CSA at the hands of her father, and if she knows they’re in a relationship that’s more than just brothers. How does she deal with that?
Or I’d love to see the AU where Bela confesses what her secret is and she decides to throw in her lot with Sam and Dean to try and get herself and Dean out of their deals, and they succeed, which makes them all kind of bonded in a unique way—ignore my caveat for this prompt, I could maybe see something long term in those circumstances.
On the flipside, a S4 AU where in hell, Dean insists Castiel take Bela too, and they end up finding each other on earth and connecting via trauma bonding. I would love to see the mess that is S4 with post-hell Bela along for the ride.
Or maybe Bela comes back on her own, after becoming a demon, and she is interested in
revenge and maybe wants to play with the Winchesters a bit. Feel free to lean into the dubcon/noncon aspects of where this might go.
[return to the top]
Dean Winchester/Jo Harvelle/Sam Winchester
I love Jo! I want to see more of her! I wish we’d gotten more interactions between her and Sam, both because they’re inverted mirrors of each other, but also the aftermath of Born Under A Bad Sign. I’m also interested in the idea of her pursuing Dean, then realizing he’s involved with his brother, and how she navigates that. Jo is a very “determined, goes after what she wants” type and I’d love to see that in action.
So anything that leans into the spaces in canon, especially in S2 where something could happen, I’d be for it. Also: No Exit AU where Ellen doesn’t track them down and Jo ends up along for the ride, evading her mother and seeking refuge with the Winchesters.
Or an AU where Bill Harvelle doesn’t die and maybe Sam and Dean meet Jo at a younger age, when John brings his boys to the roadhouse and introduces them to each other. I love the thought of her meeting them young and getting a crush on Dean as a kid (or a crush on Sam instead). I’d love something slow burn with Jo getting to know them more and more each time they visit the roadhouse and growing closer together. I kind of love the thought of her as a touchtone and a constant that’s been in their lives for a while.
Please, please anything playing with the fact John Winchester killed her dad, and how she feels being around his sons after that secret was revealed. What does she think of them in the aftermath? Or anything post-Born Under a Bad Sign where Sam is hurt but understanding when Jo flinches around him.
Post-S2 or mid-S5, or anything in between. I’d love Jo as constant contact or a resource, like Bobby that they keep coming back to, or sometimes they work together with. I’d love Jo helping out in S3, Jo hunting with them later on or collabing on a hunt, or Jo helping the Winchesters stop the apocalypse.
Jo doesn’t die (but maybe Ellen does?), but badly injured and she ends up even more angry and determined to help stop the apocalypse.
Maybe instead of Sam ending up with Ruby, Sam ends up reconnecting with Jo, falling into a relationship with her after Dean dies in S3. I feel like she’d fulfill a similar role in that Jo reminds Sam of Dean, but not a demon. I’d love to see how that’d work with Dean coming back in S4.
Long shot, but I confess, I am very into the thought of Jo as a long lost Winchester sibling/sister. I really like the idea of her knowing she’s related to them, and them not knowing. Or that the big secret Ellen was keeping wasn’t just that John killed Bill, but he was Jo’s dad. I love her trying to pursue a relationship with Dean with that in mind, and throwing all caution in the wind when she finds out Sam/Dean are together. But honestly, any scenario where Jo is their sister is A+.
Or an AU where John has to take in and raise Jo because both her parents died. Jo as a third Winchester kid. This can be biologically related, or simply adoption, but I want the weird intense incest growing up between all three of them.
[return to the top]
Dean Winchester/Madison/Sam Winchester
Probably one of my favorite one-shot characters was Madison and I really love the episode Heart, even if I’d hoped for another outcome and a better ending. There’s not much to go on, but I have a few smattering of ideas:
Obviously, an AU where Madison doesn’t die! I’d love for her to be taken along with them on the road—maybe they talk her out of dying and she agrees to go with them to find a cure for her condition. I would prefer Madison not be cured, just for that to be used as a dangling carrot of hope for her to keep going. Or maybe they promise to help her manage her condition and help her keep from hurting anyone.
I’d love anything where the Winchesters find creative and different ways to keep Madison at bay or tied up during full moons. I’d love to lean into the creepy intimacy of say, having to tie up your girlfriend to keep her from hurting anyone. Or maybe they realize sex helps with the bloodlust a little.
Madison’s POV on Sam and Dean as she learns more and more about them. Sam and Dean learning about her, the three of them trying to make this work.
What if she turns one of them into a werewolf as well? Either Sam (maybe during sex) or Dean. I love the thought of Winchester brothers having to cope with those changes, maybe making sure they don’t hurt anyone else either, and how that’ll change the relationship between all three of them.
Werewolf sex! Maybe bondage porn where they have to keep Madison tied up, chained up, in Bobby’s panic room on full moons and it ends up turning into a messy kink thing.
Honestly, just give me all three of them as a werewolf pack.
[return to the top]
Jessica Moore/Sam Winchester
There is so little that we don’t know about Jess that basically I’d love anything you want to write: obscure headcanon, backstory, family history. I just want to know her and get to know her, so please just bring her to life for me?
In terms of Sam/Jess, show me the start of their relationship! How did they meet? How did they start dating? When did things start to get serious? How do they pay for their apartment in Palo Alto despite being broke college kids? I’d love to see your take on how they came together and fell in love. Maybe they didn’t like each other at first? Or maybe Sam was oblivious to Jess flirting with him? I’m just so curious.
Or Sam takes up sex work in college to make ends meet. This is how he meets Jessica.
I’m also really interested in Jessica’s POV as she gets to know Sam, and her gradually realizing he didn’t have a normal upbringing. I’d love her OPOV on what she thinks happened to Sam and what she thinks of his family, especially Dean. On that note: Sam confiding in Jessica and telling her about his abusive childhood. Not everything of course, not the monsters, but some of the stuff John did. I’d love for her to have mixed emotions about the Dean that Sam presents to her, both because of his hero worship for him, but also his willingness to go along with John. I’d honestly love some hurt/comfort between them when Sam has nightmares and Jess being protective of him.
Porn! Sam going down on Jess for days. First time sex. Jessica has her period and Sam doesn’t have a problem with blood so he gets her off to help with the cramps. Them figuring out each other’s kinks and turn ons, and playing around with different stuff.
I always wished that shot of ghostly Jessica haunting Sam in Bloody Mary had more impact. Give me more of Sam seeing Jess around, after her death, in his dreams or out in the real world, her not being a ghost exactly, something that is just attached to him, haunting him, still making her presence known. Or maybe Jess and Sam communicate via dreams or ghost writing. Please play with the world building for this!
AU where Jess lives, either surviving the fire, or Sam comes home in enough time to stop the fire from happening. I am going to prompt this for Jess/Sam/Dean below, but I’m interested in a take that doesn’t evolve into a threesome—either because Jess doesn’t go with them, or she does and she and Dean are not exactly warming up to each other. I’d love an AU where Sam leaves her behind because he’s worried about her safety and is willing to sacrifice their relationship for her life, but she refuses to let him walk out on her like that.
Or an AU a la Mary where some entity brings Jess back at the age she died in the later seasons and she and Sam have to navigate her suddenly being alive again after so much time, and how much Sam has changed.
[return to the top]
Cassie Robinson/Dean Winchester
Cassie was such a bright spot in a not-so-great episode. Her and Dean’s chemistry was amazing and I had always wanted her back, especially since they left it open for her to come back at the end of the episode. I honestly love how the first person who gets past Dean’s walls is the first persona spills his guts to and I just want to know more about how they came together.
The start of their relationship! The good times! How they met! Dean not expecting to have all these feelings for a civilian and not sure what to do with them! Dean being good in bed, but awkward in social aspects of their relationship, or in the actual dating parts but trying really hard!
Instead of Lisa, it’s Cassie that Dean runs to after Sam goes to hell. I would prefer Cassie not to have a child like Lisa did, and Dean clings to her for different reasons than he clung to Lisa. I would like for Cassie to have no idea what’s going on at first, but she gradually gets Dean to open up. It always made more sense to me that he would seek out Cassie, someone he knew more than a one night stand, so I would love to see the play out—with things being a little awkward and uncomfortable, and not knowing where they stand. Cassie wanting to help but not sure how.
Or during Dean’s last year on earth in S3, he goes to revisit her instead of Lisa. I imagine once Cassie figures it out, she would get upset and angry, but I’d love to see the fall out. Especially if he takes Sam, who knows what this is and is just as unhappy with the situation.
Cassie and Dean stay in touch after Route 666. Exchanging emails, texts, phone calls. I’d love to see them keeping up on each other, or trying to maintain a long distance friendship, if not relationship. Maybe Cassie comes to visit when they get established in the bunker?
If you want to include past-Sam/Dean, I love the thought of Dean being very flummoxed by a normal relationship with someone else, and thinking that if he feels so strongly for Cassie, he must be in love with her and blurt out his family secret to her. I also love the idea that Cassie and Sam are very similar in temperament, which is part of why he felt so drawn to her.
A Post-S15 AU! Ignoring Dean’s death—Dean and Sam settle down instead, opening up a bar to help out other hunters, like the roadhouse. And Cassie walks in.
[return to the top]
Cassie Robinson/Jessica Moore
This is such a random pairing, but honestly? I really just love the idea of Sam’s girlfriend and Dean’s ex-girlfriend hooking up and falling for each other, so any way you could make that work would be great!
Maybe Jess goes with Sam/Dean at the end of the Pilot (miraculously surviving), but decides to stay with Cassie instead, not really coping well on the road and needing a soft place to land and crash for a while. I’d love to see how they get to know one another, and how they find common ground, both with their different Winchester experiences.
Or an AU where Sam goes missing and disappears. Jess tracks him down and finds Cassie instead. Cassie knows about hunting and decides to tell Jess the truth. Maybe Dean has also gone missing, ignoring Cassie’s phone calls and emails, and so Cassie and Jess team up to find them. Maybe they become hunters in their own right.
The two of them go on a road trip. I love the thought of Cassie and Jess embracking on their own “saving people, hunting things” journey on their own for their own reasons.
Or, if you want, role reversal AU where the Winchesters are the civilians, while Jess and Cassie are sisters (adoptive or half, up to you!) who hunt monsters.
[return to the top]
Cassie Robinson/Dean Winchester/Sam Winchester
This is such an intriguing concept to me, both in how it lets Dean have his cake and eat it too, but also how much it would shift. I am really interested in the Cassie and Sam leg of this poly dynamic, and how Cassie deals with more secrets than she can handle from Dean.
So I’d love anything where Cassie finds out about Sam/Dean and her POV of them, before she knows and after, and how she comes to reconcile it with everything else and her feelings for Dean.
Or anything exploring Sam’s jealousy over the Dean and Cassie connection, his POV on their relationship and where he fits, if he fits at all.
I’d love an AU where Sam and Dean ends up retiring from the hunting lifestyle and looks up Cassie to see how she’s doing, and she comes to visit them, now that Dean is out of the life and she is unattached. Sam/Dean/Cassie ending up together as much older adults makes me all kinds of happy.
Cassie’s mother dies and she becomes a hunter herself. I’d love it if she went on the road with Sam and Dean, but I also love the thought of her becoming a hunter on her own and she ends running into them later in life, completely surprising them, and working together on a future hunt.
Or an AU where Cassie was a hunter when Dean met her, and when they reconnect, it’s because they’re working the same case. And the Cassie/Dean/Sam dynamic blossoms from there.
[return to the top]
Dean Winchester/Jessica Moore/Sam Winchester
I’ve loved this dynamic and what fandom has done with it for years, but I still want more and fresh takes. I love the idea of the three of them together. So much of S1 feels like Jess is with them, this presence that lingers and haunts, and I just would like to see her as a fully-fleshed out character, and how that shakes up the dynamic between Sam and Dean.
Any Jess lives AUs!. Jess survives the fire, and the boys stay by her side while she’s injured, helping her recover. Or Jess survives with minor injuries and then decides to go hunt with them out of revenge and wanting to feel safe again. Or Jess was saved before the fire got to her, and then Sam tries to leave her behind to keep her out of harm’s way, but Jessica tracks them down and demands an explanation.
Any and all hurt/comfort! Jessica needing one of them to stitch up an injury. Or her stitching up Sam’s injury while Dean teaches her how to do it. Or if an AU where Jess got burned by the fire, Sam and Dean helping her change her bandages, or body worshipping her scars.
I’d love anything where Sam and Dean train Jess to hunt—maybe she already knows how to shoot a gun because her dad hunts, or maybe she’s never held one in her life before, but I’d love sparring lessons or Jess helping Sam with research. Or maybe they teach her how to grift and pickpocket, and she helps them run scams. Just anything that incorporates Jess into their world more.
Sam’s POV on watching Dean and Jess together as they bond, maybe him coming to some uncomfortable realizations.
Dean and Jess share a birthday, so anything where the three of them are together and celebrate their joint birthday would be cute and fun.
Jess discovering incest. Maybe Sam is fooling around with his brother behind her back, or maybe she just learns about it as something that happened as teenagers, but not anymore. I would love to see her thought process re: that and her try to reconcile with it.
Jessica realizing she gets off on watching Sam/Dean fuck is a fascinating god tier concept, go with it.
Jess gets pregnant. They don’t know who the father is.
John POV on the three of them when he meets up with them in the AU-where-Jess-lives version of Shadow, or Bobby’s POV on them during the S2 timeline. Or maybe Mary’s, if Jess comes back with her in the later seasons. I love OPOV for these three.
AU where Dean doesn’t come for Sam. Sam becomes a lawyer, gets married to Jess. But Dean then comes back to his life after he’s gotten married. I’m into infidelity, with Sam cheating on Jess with Dean and falling into old relationship patterns with his brother, but I also like the thought of Dean as Jess’s weird brother in law with scars and fake IDs who needs to sleep over for a few days. Jess trying to figure out what’s with him and Dean being respectful of her and trying not to ruin his brother’s relationship even though he wants to.
Or the same AU from the Sam/Jess section, an entity brings back Jess for Sam as a thank you in the later seasons, where Sam has chosen to be committed to Dean and they live together like a married couple. I’d love to see how Jess fits in and copes, and how they try and make room for her.
Honestly, I’d love a snapshot of anything from a Jess lives AU timeline, where she goes along with the boys—what happens at the end of S2 when Sam dies? Or if Dean does sell his soul, what is Jess’s role in S3? Or in S4? I’d love to see how her presence shifts and changes the narrative.
[return to the top]
Cassie Robinson/Dean Winchester/Jessica Moore/Sam Winchester
This is very much a long shot and such a rare ship that I don’t have a lot of prompts, but if you write it at all, I’d love anything.
Jess goes with Sam hunting. So when they run back into Cassie, Dean decides to get back together with her. Sam is irrationally jealous, until Cassie comes along for the ride and all four of them find a way to cope and function. I love the headcanons that Jess is similar to Dean and Cassie has qualities of Sam, so I would love a mix of those dynamics, with Jess and Dean, and Cassie and Sam forging a separate bond.
I’d also love OPOV on the four of them, maybe from Bobby’s perspective, or John’s? How they react to Sam and Dean bringing their girlfriends along and teaching them how to hunt?
Or any AUs where Jess is left behind by Sam and Dean for her safety, and while chasing after them, meets up with Cassie. Cassie/Jess tracking Sam/Dean down, and this somehow leading to an OT4 situation.
Perhaps a remix of What Is and What Should Never Be where Dean’s dream world involves him in a relationship with Sam, Cassie, and Jess.
All four of them ending up hunting together, living in and out of motel rooms and the Impala, which is now suddenly very cramped. How the journey changes with Cassie and Jess along for the ride.
[return to the top]
Jack Kline & Sam Winchester
I confess, I haven’t actually seen a lot of the Jack seasons! I’ve been instead hopping around from random episode to random episode. But I LOVE Jack, from the little I’ve seen of him from episodes and supercuts on youtube—he’s so cute and charming. I also love Sam being a father, it makes me so happy. I’d love anything with Sam being a father to Jack and taking care of him and teaching him things, from hunting or helping Dean with driving lessons to perhaps helping him control his powers (because Sam should have his powers still!). I’d love anything that focuses on their similarities and Sam’s deep empathy for Jack, perhaps in a hurt/comfort-y way.
More exploration of how Sam is Lucifer’s vessel and Lucifer is Jack’s father. I am fascinated by how Lucifer binds them both together and Sam’s horrible history with him, and how Sam raising Lucifer’s kid is a redemptive moment for him, but also in a weird way, Sam is Lucifer’s true face on Earth? I love the complicated messiness of that.
I’d love an AU where Jack didn’t age himself up to a teenager immediately upon being born. I want Sam trying to raise an oddly superpowered antichrist baby, or toddler even. Maybe Jack does age himself up faster, but not as fast as he did in canon, so one day Sam puts a two year old to sleep and then wakes up to five year old Jack demanding attention. Please feel free to include Dean in this scenario, especially Dean trying to help Sam with toddler!Jack.
Any milestones that would be normal in a kid’s life, but is out of ordinary for Jack and his situation—Jack wanting friends or having his first crush, and how Sam helps him figure his way through it.
I’d also love something post-canon where Sam misses Jack. Maybe God!Jack pays him a visit, or comes down to earth after Dean Jr. is born and tells Sam he just wanted to meet his baby brother. Or Sam still prays, but now he’s praying to the son he raised and it’s how he communicates with Jack—Jack listening in on his prayers and looking out for him.

Dean Winchester/Sam Winchester & Jack Kline, Dean Winchester/Sam Winchester & Mary Winchester, Dean Winchester/Sam Winchester & Dean Winchester Jr.
I grouped all of these together because I really love any and all outsider POV, so what I really want here overlaps a lot. I just want to see all of their reactions and observations on Sam/Dean and their fucked up, messy relationship.
Jack finds out about incest. I’d love to see how this goes, especially if he ends up with funny ideas of what’s normal and okay from this. Does Jack even know that incest is taboo? Does Jack just assume this is perfectly normal and doesn’t mention it, until it comes up and everyone has to deal with the fact that Jack just thinks it’s fine and doesn’t get why everyone is upset by his reaction.
Jack telling Castiel he saw Sam and Dean making out. Or Jack walking in on Sam and Dean having sex and not really getting why that is wrong until he tells the wrong person (maybe Mary?). I like the idea that Jack just assumes his dads are married and it doesn’t matter if they’re brothers.
I also love the thought of Jack being hyper defensive of Sam and Dean’s relationship with each other and defending them against other people perceiving it as wrong, simply because he has a completely different perspective on the world.
And, of course, I’d love anything with Sam and Dean navigating their relationship around trying to raise this superpowered kid and not completely fuck him up.
Honestly, anything with Mary coming back from the dead in the later seasons and her gradually realizing that her sons are incestous with each other. I’d love for it to slowly dawn on her, notice how overly close they are or see them sharing a bed, and try to pretend it’s not happening. I’d really love to see her grapple with that and struggle with being close to them because of that.
In general, I love the sheer weirdness of Mary being younger than her sons and them growing up to be hunters aka her worst nightmare and the last thing she wanted for her children. I’d love anything exploring that.
I’d also love an AU where Mary lives, but Sam and Dean still end up together (because of the fuckery of them being soulmates), and how she deals with that when she figures it out. Or maybe give me a soulmate mark AU where Sam and Dean are marked as each other’s and Mary doesn’t know what to do with that information, or how she is supposed to raise them.
Mary’s perspective after she finds out and her observations on their relationship, and how they function around each other. Maybe she starts to pry or ask little questions here and there, maybe she slowly comes to understand, even if she’s not sure she can approve.
Anything that deals with the implications that John and Mary were soulmates, but so are Sam and Dean, and how Mary learns about that, and how she comes to feel about it.
An AU of Lebanon where John gets to stay a bit longer, or the pearl brings him back to life, not from an earlier timeline, so he is there permanently. I’d love for Mary to be able to express her anger at him, but I’d also love it if John knows about Sam/Dean and like… he tries to get Mary to help him put an end to it, but she doesn’t have the heart to do it, not when what they have—well, it works.
My fix-it fic idea for the end of the series is that Dean lives and Sam and Dean raise Dean Jr. together! Dean Jr. can be anything from an orphan kid they saved on a hunt, a kid they adopted, or Sam or Dean’s mpreg baby they acquired by magic. Honestly, feel free to switch Dean Jr.’s gender up if Dean lives and his name, if only because I have a soft spot for the boys raising little girls and I don’t think Sam would name his kid Dean if Dean was alive.
Or Dean Jr. POV when he’s older in said AU, gradually realizing his parents are brothers (or the brothers that raised him are also together). I would love to see how Sam and Dean navigate wanting to not hide they’re brothers, but also not hide that they’re more than brothers, and how that comes to affect Dean Jr.
If Dean Jr. is a magical mpreg baby, I’d love for him to realize that the reason his dad doesn’t talk about his mom is because he was fathered by Dean.
Going with canon-compliancy, I’d love to see him gradually uncover Sam and Dean’s history. Maybe Sam doesn’t talk about it much because it’s too painful, so he tries to find information other ways. Or Sam talks too much about Dean to the point Dean Jr. isn’t sure he can ever live up to his name. I’d love for him to find journals or letters, some kind of documentation that Sam kept to remember Dean by, or even to find the initials Sam and Dean carved on the Impala.
Dean Jr. makes it to heaven after living a full life, and ends up finding his dad living with his Uncle Dean like a married couple, maybe Sam did get married and Dean Jr. expected Sam to be with his mother, but he’s not.

Dean Winchester/Sam Winchester
Saved this for last! This is probably one of my most formative ships, a ship that informed a lot of my other ships. It’s what got me into fandom when I was younger. I’ve been back in my old feelings again and have been thinking about Sam and Dean a lot in the past month or so, and I like this second look, with fresh eyes and a more mature perspective. I’m really happy with anything for Sam/Dean, from weecest to older domesticity, to angst, and to dark fic.
Let’s start from the beginning: first times! Mainly pre-series, but anything with Sam’s growing crush on Dean as a teenager, and Dean’s guilty, ashamed reciprocation. Dean teaching Sam how to jerk off. Sam and Dean bedsharing and there are accidental erections. Dean being overly invested in Sam’s sex life. Sam being overly invested in Dean’s sex life (and very jealous). I just love the age where Sam hits puberty and becomes an angry, very rebellious teenager. I love the contention of Sam angry at John, but soft on Dean, and starts making a move on his brother.
I am also fascinated by the thought of John catching them together. I love both the quiet drama way, where John overhears them or sees something he shouldn’t, and it just sits with him eating away at him, or John assuming Dean is possessed or something and needing to be talked down from hurting him. I love John blaming himself.
Dean goes with Sam to Stanford AU! I want them to run off together and Sam to take his brother to Stanford, or managing to convince him to come with him and choose him over John. Maybe with Dean there, they still hunt a little on the down low.
I’d love to read anything set during any of the seasons—either a first time, or a rekindling of their relationship; with these two, I am okay with them being very on and off again. So maybe a first time in S1 or in S3, or even in the messiness of S4. I am fond of later seasons get together fic, like something post-Red Meat? But I’d also love to see them finally deciding to make a commitment and sticking it out with each other, what that looks like.
I’d love them figuring out different kinks together, or asking for things that surprises the other. I like to imagine that Dean tends to be softer, but Sam keeps asking for more extreme things like knifeplay or gunplay, or for Dean to choke him and how they work out these differences and come to some common ground. I’d love anything where they mess around with D/s or bondage, in an informal, messy way.
Either one in lingerie, but especially Dean loving fancy, pretty, soft panties.
Speaking of crossdressing: either of them cross dressing, in any era. I’ll repeat that I love that Dean has a canon lingerie kink, so I’d love to read anything with that explored and Winchesters fooling around with it, but in a more intense way, like either of them getting fully decked out and pretending to be a girl. Maybe for a mission or as a honeypot thing, and Sam gets turned on. Or Sam wears a skirt and Dean gets really into it. I’d love anything with them messing around with gender and gender presentation.
ANYTHING set during the time they were occupying the bunker and becoming more and more domestic, but especially I’d love anything set between 15x19 and 15x20—Jared has said that five years past between the episodes, and I would love to see Sam and Dean settling into their life once they were free to do whatever they wanted, living together with Miracle.
Or a Winchesters retire fic! I love AUs where they retire for other reasons, and end up filling a Bobby role to other hunters, or Dean opens up a Harvelle-esque bar for other hunters. Sam and Dean getting out of the life, but still together and still helping out in their own way makes me happy. Or maybe they go into hiding, for reasons and find themselves a home in some out of the way small town. I especially like this concept paired with a career-ending injury type of situation where one of them just physically can’t hunt anymore and how they adjust to a new disability and forced retirement.
Anything at all that deals with the implications in canon that Sam and Dean are soulmates—whether it’s a soul mark AU, or something more subtle, I’d love anything that explores it. Maybe they get soul bonded because of a ritual and now can feel each other’s emotions or hear each other’s thoughts or feel each other’s pain.
Post-Series Finale Sam and Dean being domestic and happy in heaven. That’s it, that’s the prompt. Bonus points for them visiting John and Mary and just… not hiding what they are to each other and everyone having to deal.
Accidental baby acquisition! I am okay with mpreg for these two, but I am really fond of them ending up adopting a kid that was orphaned by a hunt, or a kid like Jack that not just anyone can care for. I love the idea of them raising a kid with all their baggage when it comes to John.
I love casefic and watching them hunt monsters together, so feel free to lean into that and write any sort of MOTW-tinged plot.
For these two, Hurt/Comfort is my bulletproof kink, so I’d love anything where they have to patch each other up and put each other back together again, either physically or emotionally. It can be after a hunt gone wrong, or post-either one of their Hell experiences, I just love it when they lean on each other and hurt!Winchesters is an A+ trope.
More specifically, a focus on rape aftermath/recovery. Either Sam or Dean, or both recovering from rape/sexual abuse/assault. It’s up to you how you want to handle the rape— iit could be a fuck or die situation, and both of them traumatized after, a demon raping Dean (such as the YED or Alistair) and making Sam watch. It could be Dean finding out about Lucifer raping Sam or Dean being raped by a hook up (or a john in sex worker AUs). I am okay with everything not being fixed, I just love the focus on comfort and recovery of that trauma.
I’m a cliche and I love the thought of either Sam or Dean doing sex work. Give me fic about Sam doing sex work at college to make ends meet (and Dean running into him or discovering it), or Dean doing survival sex work to support them, either as teens, or during the early seasons timeline. Maybe they decide to do porn together, or do other form of sex work together. I am down for anything.
I love, love outsider POV in general, but especially for Sam and Dean, I love reading people’s reactions and perceptions of them. Be it random strangers, people from Lebanon, Bobby, the Harvelles, any of the people they save, angels or demons—I love it, especially when the incest angle is thrown in.
Or anything from the perspective of law enforcement. I’d love to know what’s in their files, and what’s on the record, if anyone did a criminal profile on them. I love the idea that them being possibly incestuous is indicated, and I’d like to see that explored. This can also be when they’re kids and having to evade CPS, or juvie. I’d just love anything from that lens.
Speaking of law enforcement, I’d love any and all criminal or serial killer AU! Make them actually Bonnie & Clyde or Leopold & Loeb. Any AUs where the FBI is right about them and they are a cult-esque duo of serial killers, raised by their paramilitary father to kill people. AUs where Sam and Dean kill people together. Or just them gradually becoming monsters together would be fantastic—maybe hunting has given them a taste for killing.
Dark Winchesters in general is my kink, so if you want to make them the bad guys, I am very down with it. Some personal favorites are:
Boy King Sam! I love the thought of Sam going full evil and rescuing Dean from hell with all his power, ending up the new king of Hell. I never get tired of this trope. Sam keeping Dean as a pet or consort as he rules hell is also A+.
Or anything with Demon Dean! Dean stalking and haunting Sam, Dean killing people who get too close to Sam, Sam feeding Dean his blood or Dean trying to feed Sam his blood, make him fall off the wagon. Sam and Dean trying to make a partnership work while Dean is a demon, but Dean keeps being scary and amoral.
To a lesser extent, I really love the period where Sam was without a soul and I would love any kind of dirtybadwrong, amoral actions from Soulless Sam towards Dean and Dean giving himself over to it because he misses Sam so much, he’ll even take this version.
I want more Sam being a witch! I love Rowena teaching Sam her skill set, then leaving him all her spell books and resources. I’d love to see more Sam/Dean with Sam being a witch, doing spells, maybe casting spells on Dean to experiment and Dean being into how confident and self-possessed Sam becomes with magic, how hot he finds it. Or an AU where Sam’s always been a witch.
On that note, I really wish the show did more with Sam’s psychic powers and would love anything that dives into that era, either with Dean helping with his visions and providing comfort, or Sam using telekinesis in a sexy way against Dean. Or maybe Sam never lost his powers and they were never demon blood fuelled, but something innate and later on in their lives they come back and Sam has to learn how to control them.
Please get weird with the worldbuilding! I love anything tropey: fuck or die, sex pollen, any kind of magical misadventures that results in weird sex. I love reading stuff where a witch or a monster curses them and only sex with your brother can lift the curse. Or one of them touches something they shouldn’t have and the only way to save them is to have sex. Please feel free to get whacky with the magical stuff. Other things I’d love: maybe Dean gets hit with a truth spell, or Sam gets his dick turned into a vagina, or full magical temporary rule 63, where one of them gets turned into a cis girl and has to deal, or they’re cursed to say whatever they’re thinking about.
Catboy Sam. That’s it, that’s the prompt. Let him be a cute catboy. I’m down with heat tropes and the like with catboys if you wanna go there but I just really like the aesthetics of Sam, a giant, with cute cat ears.
All the werewolf AUs! I love the thought of Sam or Dean being bitten and turned into a werewolf, and them taking care of each other through that. Maybe they were turned on a hunt and now have to cope with it. Sam and Dean tying each other up or chaining each other up for full moons. Dean refusing to hurt his brother, or terrified of hurting his brother as a werewolf.
I would also be interested in an AU where the Winchesters are werewolves who turn into actual wolves, instead of what SPN does. An AU where John is a werewolf and it’s passed along the family line. There’s something very wild and feral about Sam and Dean living off the edge of society that screams werewolf to me.
Vampire AU! I’m just a sucker for vampire AUs. I’d like to see either one of them turned into a vampire and just having to cope with that, struggling to hold on to their humanity. Vampire Dean or Vampire Sam, or both is good! I especially love the thought of one brother feeding the other brother their blood, especially if they refuse to feed. Or if things have gone bad, one brother forcing the other to turn.
Or maybe Dean stays a vampire in the S6 instead. How does that work with soulless Sam?
I love the thought of teen Sam being turned into a vampire on a hunt gone wrong, and Dean takes him and runs away because he’s scared John will kill him. Then eventually becomes a vampire because he cannot bear the thought of Sam living past him. Or Dean gets bitten and Sam follows him as he runs away, and forces Dean to turn him.
Omegaverse wildcard prompt: I’d love a fic where Sam presents as an omega, and John’s solution to to shove Sam and Dean (who is an alpha) in a locked room when his heat hits, so Dean will mate with Sam and they’ll be pair-bonded. John thinks it’ll make Dean even more protective of Sam, which is true, but it backfires and Dean becomes protective of Sam in spite of John, wanting him to go to school and not wanting him to hunt.

NOTE: Hello Supernatural revival! I was a huge fan ~back in the day, but I’ve only fully seen up to Season 5. However, I’ve seen a random handful of eps from the later seasons, and I’m currently rewatching the series from the beginning. Don’t worry about spoiling me because I am absolutely spoiled to hell and back on most plot events. This is your feel free to write or set things in the later seasons card, I simply just want to note that some of my prompts will be more geared towards the earlier seasons or post-series.
I love Bela, even after all these years and I would love to see more exploration of her character, which is why I’ve thrown together all these different ships for her. I always felt like Bela added something unique and interesting to the worldbuilding of the show and I love her ambiguous place within the story. I am sad she died, so all of these will be fix-it fic ideas.
Fix-it fic #1: Anna helps Bela out of her deal in some way. Maybe with time travel—-Anna goes back in time and helps stop Bela from dying via hellhound and then goes around protecting her. Perhaps Anna was a guardian angel before she chose to fall and Bela was one of her charges. I really love the thought of Bela having someone looking out for her. Maybe Anna goes back in time to help teenage Bela before she makes her deal?
Fix-it fic #2: Or maybe she saves her directly from hell! I’d love it if she pulled her out of hell in a similar way Castiel pulled Dean out of hell. Why would she do this? Why is she saving Bela? That’s up to you. I would love Bela to realize she is worth something more than having to go to hell because she wanted to escape years of abuse.
Not really a fix-it, but sort of #3: I’d be down for demon!Bela/angel!Anna. Bela escaping out of hell early on in S4 and teaming up with Anna. Any kind of angel/demon shenanigans is most welcome. Or perhaps newly created demon Bela getting used to what she is and delighting in causing chaos, attracted to Anna the rebellious angel who isn’t anything like she expected an angel to be.
[return to the top]
And now for an opposite dynamic! I was forever sad that Bela and Ruby never got to meet and interact in S3, what a missed opportunity.
It’d be cool if in S3, they were working together at one point. Maybe Ruby offers to get Bela out of her deal in exchange for help with the Winchesters. Bela and Ruby being amoral and screwing over other people together is great. I’d also love it if Bela was more important to the mytharc of the series, her parallels to Dean and her having her own deal she wants to get out of was never fully explored and I’d love to see Bela working with Ruby for her own ends as well.
Bela wants to know what hell is like. She wishes she didn’t ask.
Or perhaps when Ruby goes back to hell, they meet and once Bela turns into a demon, they work together to try and find their way out.
If you want to write Ruby as good and genuinely interested in helping Bela out of her deal, I would really love that. While I do love ultimate player Ruby, I do wish she was more complicated, so I’d love to see her show a level of empathy and understanding towards Bela. Perhaps they come from similar backstories. If you want to toss in the fact that Ruby was a witch as a human, I’d love that! Or maybe human witch Ruby helping Bela out?
Long-shot, but maybe Ruby possesses Bela’s body in order to help save her, then they have to find Ruby a new body, but also make sure Bela’s body is healed. Both of them sharing a body shenanigans!
[return to the top]
Sometimes you want to smush your faves together and see what happens. I am fascinated by the “what could have been” dynamic of Bela and Jo— Bela with her disdain for hunters, and Jo with her desire to hunt. I’d just love anything with these two playing off one another!
Case fic! These two run into each other on a case and absolutely hate each other. Or they end up getting along and have a drink together and really like each other, until they’re realize they’re here at a cross purpose. Or perhaps Jo needs help with a case or the location of a specific artifact and she is given Bela’s name.
Jo and Bela are after the same cursed object. They have to work tonight to destroy it. Bela doesn’t want to because she’s planning on selling it, but she’s gotten into a sticky jam that Jo needs to help her out of.
Bela touches a cursed object and needs Jo’s help. She won't go to the Winchesters. Maybe the help she needs is a ‘fuck or die’ kind of help. Or maybe Jo touches a cursed object and needs to ask Bela for help, maybe Bela strings her along a bit before ultimately helping.
I like the thought of them getting on each other’s nerves, riling each other up, and that escalating to rough sex in the bedroom. I love the juxtaposition of Jo, a lower class girl from the midwest, against Bela’s fancy sheets and dresses, but Bela giving as good as she gets. I also love the differences in their trauma, where Bela’s father was her abuser, while Jo sees her father as her hero. Basically I love the opposites attract nature of these two.
Or an AU where Bela/Jo was a past relationship and post-series, in Jack’s heaven, Jo wants Bela with her, so someone pulls some strings and Jo gets Bela back, but she’s not exactly the same. Hurt/comfort in heaven, please.
[return to the top]
My needs are very simple with these two: I just want cop and thief shenanigans, especially after Victor becomes aware of the supernatural. Or perhaps he knows because of trying to track Bela down.
As for prompts, a few places you could go:
Both of them teaming up! Maybe Bela is Victor’s informat on what the Winchesters are doing in exchange for him looking the other way from her crimes, or helping her get away with them. Or maybe Victor needs a guide through this new world he finds himself in.
Something set after Jus in Bello: Victor lives, but just barely and now he has it out for Lilith. He meets and tries to help Bela with her deal in exchange for her helping him take down Lilith. The two of them forced to work together!
Or a post-apocalypse AU—-maybe set in The End verse—-with the two of them are still around and kicking and team up to keep each other safe
ANY kind of Bonnie/Clyde thing—-I love the thought of Victor forced to take up a life of crime and forced out of his FBI job, maybe perhaps because he’s trying to tell his superiors about the supernatural and they think he’s gone off the deep end. Victor ends up working with Bela Talbot of all people.
UST, long lingering looks and moments, ill-advised sex, shady motel rendezvous. Two lonely closed off people coming together. I’d love any small moment between them. Hurt/comfort would be wonderful, either emotional where Bela opens up to him about her past, or physical where Bela patches Victor up.
[return to the top]
Jess is a character that I wish we knew more about—she’s so important to Sam specifically, yet we don’t really know who she was as a person, so I’d love any and all takes on her. I’d love for her to meet Jo, who is kind of the opposite of Sam in that she was kept from hunting and wants to hunt, but at the same time, she’s kept in the dark by loved ones. They’d make an interesting pair.
As for prompts:
Maybe Jess had her own secrets, or maybe she’s angry that Sam left when she survived the fire. Or maybe Sam never comes back when he leaves with Dean, and Jess can’t help but dropping out of school and tracking him down. Along her journey, she ends up the roadhouse and meets Jo.
Jess survives the fire, badly scarred and recovering when Sam decides he needs to leave, to keep her out of danger. Once she’s back on her feet, she tries to piece back together her life and figure out what Sam had been hiding from her. Along the way, she ends up a hunter and partnering with Jo, a rookie with more experience and knowledge than she has. Together they fight demons! (and maybe find Sam and Dean).
Or I’d love an AU where Jess and Jo end up at the same college, and Jess falls for the “freak with a knife collection.”
Jo saves Jess, the damsel in distress, from a monster. Jess decides to stick with her. Or at least pay her back with sex. This can be an AU where Jo meets Jess first, or Jess survives and gets left behind.
Jess is a ghost. Jo tries to lay her to rest.
[return to the top]
All I want is for Victor to live and for Dean and Victor to kiss! I hate that when these two finally started to bond, and Victor learned Dean wasn’t a bad guy, he died. All that wasted potential of having someone in the FBI that knows what’s really going on. What I want here is fix-its: let them bond more! Let them meet up and work together and have Victor help stop the apocalypse, and then he and Dean can make out.
Victor doesn’t die! Victor ends up being Dean’s FBI guy on the inside, covering for him and Sam to other FBI agents. Or I’d love a sort of OPOV from Victor’s POV on the Winchesters, before and after Jus in Bello where he survives. Basically I’m interested in what Victor is aware of and thinks he knows, and how that shifts later.
Victor quits his job, or loses his job, and goes to Dean for help getting his bearings again. Or decides to start hunting, so Dean trains him. Victor doesn’t need much training in certain areas, but he needs help realizing he has to operate below the radar now. Or Victor survives the explosion, but just barely, and he’s pretty badly scarred. He ends up at Bobby’s looking for the Winchesters in order to help them defeat Lilith
Victor doesn’t die but fakes his death in order to evade questions from his superiors, then hooks back up with the Winchesters. Eventually Dean’s kink for authority figures telling him what to do makes him very weak in the knees for Victor.
Sam POV on Dean/Victor! Maybe he encourages them to bond more, but doesn’t expect them to actually become a couple. Or Victor POV on Sam and Dean as he tries to navigate his messy feelings for Dean, while also believing there’s something messed up between the brothers.
BONUS: This wasn’t in the tagset, but if you have an idea for how to make Dean/Sam/Victor, this is your free space to go ahead and do that. I am really interested in what’s in their files and I assume authorities believe they’re incestuous on some level, so I’d like to see how that factors in when Victor gets closer to them and realizes it’s true.
[return to the top]
NOTE: Moving into my next section of ships, which is heavily focused on Sam/Dean/[Third Person] poly dynamics, I want to preface this with the fact that most of these will have similar themes and plot ideas. Broken down, I really want the Winchesters to have to adjust to a new person in their lives, and adjust to traveling full time with another woman and having to make room for her. If Sam/Dean aren’t already incestuous, I am super interested in how this threesome poly relationship develops with that hanging over them, as an unspoken thing, and how the lady in question ends up feeling about it. Or, if they’re already in a relationship, how they make room between them and their intense codependency. I would love for her to eventually be somewhat okay with Sam and Dean’s relationship, but if she has a hard time with it at first, that’s great.
I can’t see her in a long term relationship with the boys—I don’t see Bela as the settling down type, and even if she was, I doubt she’d be willing to share with another person, especially not with two people so wrapped up in each other like Sam and Dean are—but I really like her ending up in a sexual relationship with them, casually and sporadically.
So Ideas are:
Maybe they have a one night stand when they’re forced to work together on a case and they end up falling into bed together as tensions rise.
Bela touches a cursed object without proper handling gear and needs help getting rid of the curse—it happens to be a fuck or die curse, and she reluctantly calls up the Winchesters in hopes they will come to her aid.
Or maybe they’re trapped in a room together; snowed in and can’t leave, or stuck in an elevator—and they end up fooling around a bit. After getting on each other’s nerves, of course.
Maybe Sam’s Bela dream in Dream A Little Dream Of Me was a threesome dream instead, maybe he accidentally manifests it as reality.
On the less smutty-end of the spectrum, I would love to read Bela’s POV of Sam and Dean, especially from perspective of being a survivor of CSA at the hands of her father, and if she knows they’re in a relationship that’s more than just brothers. How does she deal with that?
Or I’d love to see the AU where Bela confesses what her secret is and she decides to throw in her lot with Sam and Dean to try and get herself and Dean out of their deals, and they succeed, which makes them all kind of bonded in a unique way—ignore my caveat for this prompt, I could maybe see something long term in those circumstances.
On the flipside, a S4 AU where in hell, Dean insists Castiel take Bela too, and they end up finding each other on earth and connecting via trauma bonding. I would love to see the mess that is S4 with post-hell Bela along for the ride.
Or maybe Bela comes back on her own, after becoming a demon, and she is interested in
revenge and maybe wants to play with the Winchesters a bit. Feel free to lean into the dubcon/noncon aspects of where this might go.
[return to the top]
I love Jo! I want to see more of her! I wish we’d gotten more interactions between her and Sam, both because they’re inverted mirrors of each other, but also the aftermath of Born Under A Bad Sign. I’m also interested in the idea of her pursuing Dean, then realizing he’s involved with his brother, and how she navigates that. Jo is a very “determined, goes after what she wants” type and I’d love to see that in action.
So anything that leans into the spaces in canon, especially in S2 where something could happen, I’d be for it. Also: No Exit AU where Ellen doesn’t track them down and Jo ends up along for the ride, evading her mother and seeking refuge with the Winchesters.
Or an AU where Bill Harvelle doesn’t die and maybe Sam and Dean meet Jo at a younger age, when John brings his boys to the roadhouse and introduces them to each other. I love the thought of her meeting them young and getting a crush on Dean as a kid (or a crush on Sam instead). I’d love something slow burn with Jo getting to know them more and more each time they visit the roadhouse and growing closer together. I kind of love the thought of her as a touchtone and a constant that’s been in their lives for a while.
Please, please anything playing with the fact John Winchester killed her dad, and how she feels being around his sons after that secret was revealed. What does she think of them in the aftermath? Or anything post-Born Under a Bad Sign where Sam is hurt but understanding when Jo flinches around him.
Post-S2 or mid-S5, or anything in between. I’d love Jo as constant contact or a resource, like Bobby that they keep coming back to, or sometimes they work together with. I’d love Jo helping out in S3, Jo hunting with them later on or collabing on a hunt, or Jo helping the Winchesters stop the apocalypse.
Jo doesn’t die (but maybe Ellen does?), but badly injured and she ends up even more angry and determined to help stop the apocalypse.
Maybe instead of Sam ending up with Ruby, Sam ends up reconnecting with Jo, falling into a relationship with her after Dean dies in S3. I feel like she’d fulfill a similar role in that Jo reminds Sam of Dean, but not a demon. I’d love to see how that’d work with Dean coming back in S4.
Long shot, but I confess, I am very into the thought of Jo as a long lost Winchester sibling/sister. I really like the idea of her knowing she’s related to them, and them not knowing. Or that the big secret Ellen was keeping wasn’t just that John killed Bill, but he was Jo’s dad. I love her trying to pursue a relationship with Dean with that in mind, and throwing all caution in the wind when she finds out Sam/Dean are together. But honestly, any scenario where Jo is their sister is A+.
Or an AU where John has to take in and raise Jo because both her parents died. Jo as a third Winchester kid. This can be biologically related, or simply adoption, but I want the weird intense incest growing up between all three of them.

Probably one of my favorite one-shot characters was Madison and I really love the episode Heart, even if I’d hoped for another outcome and a better ending. There’s not much to go on, but I have a few smattering of ideas:
Obviously, an AU where Madison doesn’t die! I’d love for her to be taken along with them on the road—maybe they talk her out of dying and she agrees to go with them to find a cure for her condition. I would prefer Madison not be cured, just for that to be used as a dangling carrot of hope for her to keep going. Or maybe they promise to help her manage her condition and help her keep from hurting anyone.
I’d love anything where the Winchesters find creative and different ways to keep Madison at bay or tied up during full moons. I’d love to lean into the creepy intimacy of say, having to tie up your girlfriend to keep her from hurting anyone. Or maybe they realize sex helps with the bloodlust a little.
Madison’s POV on Sam and Dean as she learns more and more about them. Sam and Dean learning about her, the three of them trying to make this work.
What if she turns one of them into a werewolf as well? Either Sam (maybe during sex) or Dean. I love the thought of Winchester brothers having to cope with those changes, maybe making sure they don’t hurt anyone else either, and how that’ll change the relationship between all three of them.
Werewolf sex! Maybe bondage porn where they have to keep Madison tied up, chained up, in Bobby’s panic room on full moons and it ends up turning into a messy kink thing.
Honestly, just give me all three of them as a werewolf pack.
[return to the top]
There is so little that we don’t know about Jess that basically I’d love anything you want to write: obscure headcanon, backstory, family history. I just want to know her and get to know her, so please just bring her to life for me?
In terms of Sam/Jess, show me the start of their relationship! How did they meet? How did they start dating? When did things start to get serious? How do they pay for their apartment in Palo Alto despite being broke college kids? I’d love to see your take on how they came together and fell in love. Maybe they didn’t like each other at first? Or maybe Sam was oblivious to Jess flirting with him? I’m just so curious.
Or Sam takes up sex work in college to make ends meet. This is how he meets Jessica.
I’m also really interested in Jessica’s POV as she gets to know Sam, and her gradually realizing he didn’t have a normal upbringing. I’d love her OPOV on what she thinks happened to Sam and what she thinks of his family, especially Dean. On that note: Sam confiding in Jessica and telling her about his abusive childhood. Not everything of course, not the monsters, but some of the stuff John did. I’d love for her to have mixed emotions about the Dean that Sam presents to her, both because of his hero worship for him, but also his willingness to go along with John. I’d honestly love some hurt/comfort between them when Sam has nightmares and Jess being protective of him.
Porn! Sam going down on Jess for days. First time sex. Jessica has her period and Sam doesn’t have a problem with blood so he gets her off to help with the cramps. Them figuring out each other’s kinks and turn ons, and playing around with different stuff.
I always wished that shot of ghostly Jessica haunting Sam in Bloody Mary had more impact. Give me more of Sam seeing Jess around, after her death, in his dreams or out in the real world, her not being a ghost exactly, something that is just attached to him, haunting him, still making her presence known. Or maybe Jess and Sam communicate via dreams or ghost writing. Please play with the world building for this!
AU where Jess lives, either surviving the fire, or Sam comes home in enough time to stop the fire from happening. I am going to prompt this for Jess/Sam/Dean below, but I’m interested in a take that doesn’t evolve into a threesome—either because Jess doesn’t go with them, or she does and she and Dean are not exactly warming up to each other. I’d love an AU where Sam leaves her behind because he’s worried about her safety and is willing to sacrifice their relationship for her life, but she refuses to let him walk out on her like that.
Or an AU a la Mary where some entity brings Jess back at the age she died in the later seasons and she and Sam have to navigate her suddenly being alive again after so much time, and how much Sam has changed.
[return to the top]
Cassie was such a bright spot in a not-so-great episode. Her and Dean’s chemistry was amazing and I had always wanted her back, especially since they left it open for her to come back at the end of the episode. I honestly love how the first person who gets past Dean’s walls is the first persona spills his guts to and I just want to know more about how they came together.
The start of their relationship! The good times! How they met! Dean not expecting to have all these feelings for a civilian and not sure what to do with them! Dean being good in bed, but awkward in social aspects of their relationship, or in the actual dating parts but trying really hard!
Instead of Lisa, it’s Cassie that Dean runs to after Sam goes to hell. I would prefer Cassie not to have a child like Lisa did, and Dean clings to her for different reasons than he clung to Lisa. I would like for Cassie to have no idea what’s going on at first, but she gradually gets Dean to open up. It always made more sense to me that he would seek out Cassie, someone he knew more than a one night stand, so I would love to see the play out—with things being a little awkward and uncomfortable, and not knowing where they stand. Cassie wanting to help but not sure how.
Or during Dean’s last year on earth in S3, he goes to revisit her instead of Lisa. I imagine once Cassie figures it out, she would get upset and angry, but I’d love to see the fall out. Especially if he takes Sam, who knows what this is and is just as unhappy with the situation.
Cassie and Dean stay in touch after Route 666. Exchanging emails, texts, phone calls. I’d love to see them keeping up on each other, or trying to maintain a long distance friendship, if not relationship. Maybe Cassie comes to visit when they get established in the bunker?
If you want to include past-Sam/Dean, I love the thought of Dean being very flummoxed by a normal relationship with someone else, and thinking that if he feels so strongly for Cassie, he must be in love with her and blurt out his family secret to her. I also love the idea that Cassie and Sam are very similar in temperament, which is part of why he felt so drawn to her.
A Post-S15 AU! Ignoring Dean’s death—Dean and Sam settle down instead, opening up a bar to help out other hunters, like the roadhouse. And Cassie walks in.
[return to the top]
This is such a random pairing, but honestly? I really just love the idea of Sam’s girlfriend and Dean’s ex-girlfriend hooking up and falling for each other, so any way you could make that work would be great!
Maybe Jess goes with Sam/Dean at the end of the Pilot (miraculously surviving), but decides to stay with Cassie instead, not really coping well on the road and needing a soft place to land and crash for a while. I’d love to see how they get to know one another, and how they find common ground, both with their different Winchester experiences.
Or an AU where Sam goes missing and disappears. Jess tracks him down and finds Cassie instead. Cassie knows about hunting and decides to tell Jess the truth. Maybe Dean has also gone missing, ignoring Cassie’s phone calls and emails, and so Cassie and Jess team up to find them. Maybe they become hunters in their own right.
The two of them go on a road trip. I love the thought of Cassie and Jess embracking on their own “saving people, hunting things” journey on their own for their own reasons.
Or, if you want, role reversal AU where the Winchesters are the civilians, while Jess and Cassie are sisters (adoptive or half, up to you!) who hunt monsters.
[return to the top]
This is such an intriguing concept to me, both in how it lets Dean have his cake and eat it too, but also how much it would shift. I am really interested in the Cassie and Sam leg of this poly dynamic, and how Cassie deals with more secrets than she can handle from Dean.
So I’d love anything where Cassie finds out about Sam/Dean and her POV of them, before she knows and after, and how she comes to reconcile it with everything else and her feelings for Dean.
Or anything exploring Sam’s jealousy over the Dean and Cassie connection, his POV on their relationship and where he fits, if he fits at all.
I’d love an AU where Sam and Dean ends up retiring from the hunting lifestyle and looks up Cassie to see how she’s doing, and she comes to visit them, now that Dean is out of the life and she is unattached. Sam/Dean/Cassie ending up together as much older adults makes me all kinds of happy.
Cassie’s mother dies and she becomes a hunter herself. I’d love it if she went on the road with Sam and Dean, but I also love the thought of her becoming a hunter on her own and she ends running into them later in life, completely surprising them, and working together on a future hunt.
Or an AU where Cassie was a hunter when Dean met her, and when they reconnect, it’s because they’re working the same case. And the Cassie/Dean/Sam dynamic blossoms from there.
[return to the top]
I’ve loved this dynamic and what fandom has done with it for years, but I still want more and fresh takes. I love the idea of the three of them together. So much of S1 feels like Jess is with them, this presence that lingers and haunts, and I just would like to see her as a fully-fleshed out character, and how that shakes up the dynamic between Sam and Dean.
Any Jess lives AUs!. Jess survives the fire, and the boys stay by her side while she’s injured, helping her recover. Or Jess survives with minor injuries and then decides to go hunt with them out of revenge and wanting to feel safe again. Or Jess was saved before the fire got to her, and then Sam tries to leave her behind to keep her out of harm’s way, but Jessica tracks them down and demands an explanation.
Any and all hurt/comfort! Jessica needing one of them to stitch up an injury. Or her stitching up Sam’s injury while Dean teaches her how to do it. Or if an AU where Jess got burned by the fire, Sam and Dean helping her change her bandages, or body worshipping her scars.
I’d love anything where Sam and Dean train Jess to hunt—maybe she already knows how to shoot a gun because her dad hunts, or maybe she’s never held one in her life before, but I’d love sparring lessons or Jess helping Sam with research. Or maybe they teach her how to grift and pickpocket, and she helps them run scams. Just anything that incorporates Jess into their world more.
Sam’s POV on watching Dean and Jess together as they bond, maybe him coming to some uncomfortable realizations.
Dean and Jess share a birthday, so anything where the three of them are together and celebrate their joint birthday would be cute and fun.
Jess discovering incest. Maybe Sam is fooling around with his brother behind her back, or maybe she just learns about it as something that happened as teenagers, but not anymore. I would love to see her thought process re: that and her try to reconcile with it.
Jessica realizing she gets off on watching Sam/Dean fuck is a fascinating god tier concept, go with it.
Jess gets pregnant. They don’t know who the father is.
John POV on the three of them when he meets up with them in the AU-where-Jess-lives version of Shadow, or Bobby’s POV on them during the S2 timeline. Or maybe Mary’s, if Jess comes back with her in the later seasons. I love OPOV for these three.
AU where Dean doesn’t come for Sam. Sam becomes a lawyer, gets married to Jess. But Dean then comes back to his life after he’s gotten married. I’m into infidelity, with Sam cheating on Jess with Dean and falling into old relationship patterns with his brother, but I also like the thought of Dean as Jess’s weird brother in law with scars and fake IDs who needs to sleep over for a few days. Jess trying to figure out what’s with him and Dean being respectful of her and trying not to ruin his brother’s relationship even though he wants to.
Or the same AU from the Sam/Jess section, an entity brings back Jess for Sam as a thank you in the later seasons, where Sam has chosen to be committed to Dean and they live together like a married couple. I’d love to see how Jess fits in and copes, and how they try and make room for her.
Honestly, I’d love a snapshot of anything from a Jess lives AU timeline, where she goes along with the boys—what happens at the end of S2 when Sam dies? Or if Dean does sell his soul, what is Jess’s role in S3? Or in S4? I’d love to see how her presence shifts and changes the narrative.
[return to the top]
This is very much a long shot and such a rare ship that I don’t have a lot of prompts, but if you write it at all, I’d love anything.
Jess goes with Sam hunting. So when they run back into Cassie, Dean decides to get back together with her. Sam is irrationally jealous, until Cassie comes along for the ride and all four of them find a way to cope and function. I love the headcanons that Jess is similar to Dean and Cassie has qualities of Sam, so I would love a mix of those dynamics, with Jess and Dean, and Cassie and Sam forging a separate bond.
I’d also love OPOV on the four of them, maybe from Bobby’s perspective, or John’s? How they react to Sam and Dean bringing their girlfriends along and teaching them how to hunt?
Or any AUs where Jess is left behind by Sam and Dean for her safety, and while chasing after them, meets up with Cassie. Cassie/Jess tracking Sam/Dean down, and this somehow leading to an OT4 situation.
Perhaps a remix of What Is and What Should Never Be where Dean’s dream world involves him in a relationship with Sam, Cassie, and Jess.
All four of them ending up hunting together, living in and out of motel rooms and the Impala, which is now suddenly very cramped. How the journey changes with Cassie and Jess along for the ride.
[return to the top]
I confess, I haven’t actually seen a lot of the Jack seasons! I’ve been instead hopping around from random episode to random episode. But I LOVE Jack, from the little I’ve seen of him from episodes and supercuts on youtube—he’s so cute and charming. I also love Sam being a father, it makes me so happy. I’d love anything with Sam being a father to Jack and taking care of him and teaching him things, from hunting or helping Dean with driving lessons to perhaps helping him control his powers (because Sam should have his powers still!). I’d love anything that focuses on their similarities and Sam’s deep empathy for Jack, perhaps in a hurt/comfort-y way.
More exploration of how Sam is Lucifer’s vessel and Lucifer is Jack’s father. I am fascinated by how Lucifer binds them both together and Sam’s horrible history with him, and how Sam raising Lucifer’s kid is a redemptive moment for him, but also in a weird way, Sam is Lucifer’s true face on Earth? I love the complicated messiness of that.
I’d love an AU where Jack didn’t age himself up to a teenager immediately upon being born. I want Sam trying to raise an oddly superpowered antichrist baby, or toddler even. Maybe Jack does age himself up faster, but not as fast as he did in canon, so one day Sam puts a two year old to sleep and then wakes up to five year old Jack demanding attention. Please feel free to include Dean in this scenario, especially Dean trying to help Sam with toddler!Jack.
Any milestones that would be normal in a kid’s life, but is out of ordinary for Jack and his situation—Jack wanting friends or having his first crush, and how Sam helps him figure his way through it.
I’d also love something post-canon where Sam misses Jack. Maybe God!Jack pays him a visit, or comes down to earth after Dean Jr. is born and tells Sam he just wanted to meet his baby brother. Or Sam still prays, but now he’s praying to the son he raised and it’s how he communicates with Jack—Jack listening in on his prayers and looking out for him.
[return to the top]
I grouped all of these together because I really love any and all outsider POV, so what I really want here overlaps a lot. I just want to see all of their reactions and observations on Sam/Dean and their fucked up, messy relationship.
Jack finds out about incest. I’d love to see how this goes, especially if he ends up with funny ideas of what’s normal and okay from this. Does Jack even know that incest is taboo? Does Jack just assume this is perfectly normal and doesn’t mention it, until it comes up and everyone has to deal with the fact that Jack just thinks it’s fine and doesn’t get why everyone is upset by his reaction.
Jack telling Castiel he saw Sam and Dean making out. Or Jack walking in on Sam and Dean having sex and not really getting why that is wrong until he tells the wrong person (maybe Mary?). I like the idea that Jack just assumes his dads are married and it doesn’t matter if they’re brothers.
I also love the thought of Jack being hyper defensive of Sam and Dean’s relationship with each other and defending them against other people perceiving it as wrong, simply because he has a completely different perspective on the world.
And, of course, I’d love anything with Sam and Dean navigating their relationship around trying to raise this superpowered kid and not completely fuck him up.
Honestly, anything with Mary coming back from the dead in the later seasons and her gradually realizing that her sons are incestous with each other. I’d love for it to slowly dawn on her, notice how overly close they are or see them sharing a bed, and try to pretend it’s not happening. I’d really love to see her grapple with that and struggle with being close to them because of that.
In general, I love the sheer weirdness of Mary being younger than her sons and them growing up to be hunters aka her worst nightmare and the last thing she wanted for her children. I’d love anything exploring that.
I’d also love an AU where Mary lives, but Sam and Dean still end up together (because of the fuckery of them being soulmates), and how she deals with that when she figures it out. Or maybe give me a soulmate mark AU where Sam and Dean are marked as each other’s and Mary doesn’t know what to do with that information, or how she is supposed to raise them.
Mary’s perspective after she finds out and her observations on their relationship, and how they function around each other. Maybe she starts to pry or ask little questions here and there, maybe she slowly comes to understand, even if she’s not sure she can approve.
Anything that deals with the implications that John and Mary were soulmates, but so are Sam and Dean, and how Mary learns about that, and how she comes to feel about it.
An AU of Lebanon where John gets to stay a bit longer, or the pearl brings him back to life, not from an earlier timeline, so he is there permanently. I’d love for Mary to be able to express her anger at him, but I’d also love it if John knows about Sam/Dean and like… he tries to get Mary to help him put an end to it, but she doesn’t have the heart to do it, not when what they have—well, it works.
My fix-it fic idea for the end of the series is that Dean lives and Sam and Dean raise Dean Jr. together! Dean Jr. can be anything from an orphan kid they saved on a hunt, a kid they adopted, or Sam or Dean’s mpreg baby they acquired by magic. Honestly, feel free to switch Dean Jr.’s gender up if Dean lives and his name, if only because I have a soft spot for the boys raising little girls and I don’t think Sam would name his kid Dean if Dean was alive.
Or Dean Jr. POV when he’s older in said AU, gradually realizing his parents are brothers (or the brothers that raised him are also together). I would love to see how Sam and Dean navigate wanting to not hide they’re brothers, but also not hide that they’re more than brothers, and how that comes to affect Dean Jr.
If Dean Jr. is a magical mpreg baby, I’d love for him to realize that the reason his dad doesn’t talk about his mom is because he was fathered by Dean.
Going with canon-compliancy, I’d love to see him gradually uncover Sam and Dean’s history. Maybe Sam doesn’t talk about it much because it’s too painful, so he tries to find information other ways. Or Sam talks too much about Dean to the point Dean Jr. isn’t sure he can ever live up to his name. I’d love for him to find journals or letters, some kind of documentation that Sam kept to remember Dean by, or even to find the initials Sam and Dean carved on the Impala.
Dean Jr. makes it to heaven after living a full life, and ends up finding his dad living with his Uncle Dean like a married couple, maybe Sam did get married and Dean Jr. expected Sam to be with his mother, but he’s not.
[return to the top]
Saved this for last! This is probably one of my most formative ships, a ship that informed a lot of my other ships. It’s what got me into fandom when I was younger. I’ve been back in my old feelings again and have been thinking about Sam and Dean a lot in the past month or so, and I like this second look, with fresh eyes and a more mature perspective. I’m really happy with anything for Sam/Dean, from weecest to older domesticity, to angst, and to dark fic.
Let’s start from the beginning: first times! Mainly pre-series, but anything with Sam’s growing crush on Dean as a teenager, and Dean’s guilty, ashamed reciprocation. Dean teaching Sam how to jerk off. Sam and Dean bedsharing and there are accidental erections. Dean being overly invested in Sam’s sex life. Sam being overly invested in Dean’s sex life (and very jealous). I just love the age where Sam hits puberty and becomes an angry, very rebellious teenager. I love the contention of Sam angry at John, but soft on Dean, and starts making a move on his brother.
I am also fascinated by the thought of John catching them together. I love both the quiet drama way, where John overhears them or sees something he shouldn’t, and it just sits with him eating away at him, or John assuming Dean is possessed or something and needing to be talked down from hurting him. I love John blaming himself.
Dean goes with Sam to Stanford AU! I want them to run off together and Sam to take his brother to Stanford, or managing to convince him to come with him and choose him over John. Maybe with Dean there, they still hunt a little on the down low.
I’d love to read anything set during any of the seasons—either a first time, or a rekindling of their relationship; with these two, I am okay with them being very on and off again. So maybe a first time in S1 or in S3, or even in the messiness of S4. I am fond of later seasons get together fic, like something post-Red Meat? But I’d also love to see them finally deciding to make a commitment and sticking it out with each other, what that looks like.
I’d love them figuring out different kinks together, or asking for things that surprises the other. I like to imagine that Dean tends to be softer, but Sam keeps asking for more extreme things like knifeplay or gunplay, or for Dean to choke him and how they work out these differences and come to some common ground. I’d love anything where they mess around with D/s or bondage, in an informal, messy way.
Either one in lingerie, but especially Dean loving fancy, pretty, soft panties.
Speaking of crossdressing: either of them cross dressing, in any era. I’ll repeat that I love that Dean has a canon lingerie kink, so I’d love to read anything with that explored and Winchesters fooling around with it, but in a more intense way, like either of them getting fully decked out and pretending to be a girl. Maybe for a mission or as a honeypot thing, and Sam gets turned on. Or Sam wears a skirt and Dean gets really into it. I’d love anything with them messing around with gender and gender presentation.
ANYTHING set during the time they were occupying the bunker and becoming more and more domestic, but especially I’d love anything set between 15x19 and 15x20—Jared has said that five years past between the episodes, and I would love to see Sam and Dean settling into their life once they were free to do whatever they wanted, living together with Miracle.
Or a Winchesters retire fic! I love AUs where they retire for other reasons, and end up filling a Bobby role to other hunters, or Dean opens up a Harvelle-esque bar for other hunters. Sam and Dean getting out of the life, but still together and still helping out in their own way makes me happy. Or maybe they go into hiding, for reasons and find themselves a home in some out of the way small town. I especially like this concept paired with a career-ending injury type of situation where one of them just physically can’t hunt anymore and how they adjust to a new disability and forced retirement.
Anything at all that deals with the implications in canon that Sam and Dean are soulmates—whether it’s a soul mark AU, or something more subtle, I’d love anything that explores it. Maybe they get soul bonded because of a ritual and now can feel each other’s emotions or hear each other’s thoughts or feel each other’s pain.
Post-Series Finale Sam and Dean being domestic and happy in heaven. That’s it, that’s the prompt. Bonus points for them visiting John and Mary and just… not hiding what they are to each other and everyone having to deal.
Accidental baby acquisition! I am okay with mpreg for these two, but I am really fond of them ending up adopting a kid that was orphaned by a hunt, or a kid like Jack that not just anyone can care for. I love the idea of them raising a kid with all their baggage when it comes to John.
I love casefic and watching them hunt monsters together, so feel free to lean into that and write any sort of MOTW-tinged plot.
For these two, Hurt/Comfort is my bulletproof kink, so I’d love anything where they have to patch each other up and put each other back together again, either physically or emotionally. It can be after a hunt gone wrong, or post-either one of their Hell experiences, I just love it when they lean on each other and hurt!Winchesters is an A+ trope.
More specifically, a focus on rape aftermath/recovery. Either Sam or Dean, or both recovering from rape/sexual abuse/assault. It’s up to you how you want to handle the rape— iit could be a fuck or die situation, and both of them traumatized after, a demon raping Dean (such as the YED or Alistair) and making Sam watch. It could be Dean finding out about Lucifer raping Sam or Dean being raped by a hook up (or a john in sex worker AUs). I am okay with everything not being fixed, I just love the focus on comfort and recovery of that trauma.
I’m a cliche and I love the thought of either Sam or Dean doing sex work. Give me fic about Sam doing sex work at college to make ends meet (and Dean running into him or discovering it), or Dean doing survival sex work to support them, either as teens, or during the early seasons timeline. Maybe they decide to do porn together, or do other form of sex work together. I am down for anything.
I love, love outsider POV in general, but especially for Sam and Dean, I love reading people’s reactions and perceptions of them. Be it random strangers, people from Lebanon, Bobby, the Harvelles, any of the people they save, angels or demons—I love it, especially when the incest angle is thrown in.
Or anything from the perspective of law enforcement. I’d love to know what’s in their files, and what’s on the record, if anyone did a criminal profile on them. I love the idea that them being possibly incestuous is indicated, and I’d like to see that explored. This can also be when they’re kids and having to evade CPS, or juvie. I’d just love anything from that lens.
Speaking of law enforcement, I’d love any and all criminal or serial killer AU! Make them actually Bonnie & Clyde or Leopold & Loeb. Any AUs where the FBI is right about them and they are a cult-esque duo of serial killers, raised by their paramilitary father to kill people. AUs where Sam and Dean kill people together. Or just them gradually becoming monsters together would be fantastic—maybe hunting has given them a taste for killing.
Dark Winchesters in general is my kink, so if you want to make them the bad guys, I am very down with it. Some personal favorites are:
Boy King Sam! I love the thought of Sam going full evil and rescuing Dean from hell with all his power, ending up the new king of Hell. I never get tired of this trope. Sam keeping Dean as a pet or consort as he rules hell is also A+.
Or anything with Demon Dean! Dean stalking and haunting Sam, Dean killing people who get too close to Sam, Sam feeding Dean his blood or Dean trying to feed Sam his blood, make him fall off the wagon. Sam and Dean trying to make a partnership work while Dean is a demon, but Dean keeps being scary and amoral.
To a lesser extent, I really love the period where Sam was without a soul and I would love any kind of dirtybadwrong, amoral actions from Soulless Sam towards Dean and Dean giving himself over to it because he misses Sam so much, he’ll even take this version.
I want more Sam being a witch! I love Rowena teaching Sam her skill set, then leaving him all her spell books and resources. I’d love to see more Sam/Dean with Sam being a witch, doing spells, maybe casting spells on Dean to experiment and Dean being into how confident and self-possessed Sam becomes with magic, how hot he finds it. Or an AU where Sam’s always been a witch.
On that note, I really wish the show did more with Sam’s psychic powers and would love anything that dives into that era, either with Dean helping with his visions and providing comfort, or Sam using telekinesis in a sexy way against Dean. Or maybe Sam never lost his powers and they were never demon blood fuelled, but something innate and later on in their lives they come back and Sam has to learn how to control them.
Please get weird with the worldbuilding! I love anything tropey: fuck or die, sex pollen, any kind of magical misadventures that results in weird sex. I love reading stuff where a witch or a monster curses them and only sex with your brother can lift the curse. Or one of them touches something they shouldn’t have and the only way to save them is to have sex. Please feel free to get whacky with the magical stuff. Other things I’d love: maybe Dean gets hit with a truth spell, or Sam gets his dick turned into a vagina, or full magical temporary rule 63, where one of them gets turned into a cis girl and has to deal, or they’re cursed to say whatever they’re thinking about.
Catboy Sam. That’s it, that’s the prompt. Let him be a cute catboy. I’m down with heat tropes and the like with catboys if you wanna go there but I just really like the aesthetics of Sam, a giant, with cute cat ears.
All the werewolf AUs! I love the thought of Sam or Dean being bitten and turned into a werewolf, and them taking care of each other through that. Maybe they were turned on a hunt and now have to cope with it. Sam and Dean tying each other up or chaining each other up for full moons. Dean refusing to hurt his brother, or terrified of hurting his brother as a werewolf.
I would also be interested in an AU where the Winchesters are werewolves who turn into actual wolves, instead of what SPN does. An AU where John is a werewolf and it’s passed along the family line. There’s something very wild and feral about Sam and Dean living off the edge of society that screams werewolf to me.
Vampire AU! I’m just a sucker for vampire AUs. I’d like to see either one of them turned into a vampire and just having to cope with that, struggling to hold on to their humanity. Vampire Dean or Vampire Sam, or both is good! I especially love the thought of one brother feeding the other brother their blood, especially if they refuse to feed. Or if things have gone bad, one brother forcing the other to turn.
Or maybe Dean stays a vampire in the S6 instead. How does that work with soulless Sam?
I love the thought of teen Sam being turned into a vampire on a hunt gone wrong, and Dean takes him and runs away because he’s scared John will kill him. Then eventually becomes a vampire because he cannot bear the thought of Sam living past him. Or Dean gets bitten and Sam follows him as he runs away, and forces Dean to turn him.
Omegaverse wildcard prompt: I’d love a fic where Sam presents as an omega, and John’s solution to to shove Sam and Dean (who is an alpha) in a locked room when his heat hits, so Dean will mate with Sam and they’ll be pair-bonded. John thinks it’ll make Dean even more protective of Sam, which is true, but it backfires and Dean becomes protective of Sam in spite of John, wanting him to go to school and not wanting him to hunt.
