#I've only ever successfully wrote fanfiction Twice

[bunnimy]

Everytime I try to write a fanfic of mcd or mystreet I just end up thinking of the whole story from start to finish in my head and realize a whole hour later that I never typed anything down

hii!! i was wondering if u have any good fic recs? i've been trying to find some but sorting through the many, many fics has been impossible and you seem like you have good taste lmao

omg hi anon this is so sweet.... I’ve mostly gotten fics from other ppl’s reclists on here so check out my #fic recs tag but I can link some favorites if you want! (you might know them all already tho, i’m not exactly slogging thru the actual ao3 tag either)

everyone’s a critic, teen, ~100k, this was the first long spn fic I read pretty much as soon as cas showed up, back when I was only reading aus to avoid spoilers. To be honest I didn’t really know anything abt cas then so even though I’ve read it twice how good the cas characterization in there is kinda a blur, but I am such a big fan of chef dean i want to give him a hug. I appreciate the lack of explicit smut here too it cuts away very tastefully.

under the midnight sun, explicit, ~230k, this is the longest fic I’ve ever successfully finished reading, I read it over the span of 2 days and I’m obsessed. ao3 user northernsparrow has an ornithology degree and uses it to write gay angel fanfiction. this is an ~au~ but cas is still an angel and it’s so well researched (from op’s real experience) that it really makes you feel like you’re on an arctic research station.

like moses and batman and james dean , explicit, ~30k, this is a personal favorite of mine (I mean, obviously, it’s on this list), warning for underage prostitution, this is such a good dean studies fic

r/supernatural, gen, ~3.5k, this is by my beloved mutual @marywinchesterapologist and never fails to make me laugh. dean posts on reddit.

the path of fireflies, mature, ~60k. keep ur eyes out for the ending, it will gut you. dean and cas got the b&b in vermont :)

regarding castiel, explicit, ~16k, this fic answers the question “what if cas was in 12x11 regarding dean? and does so wonderfully

tell me about the dream, mature, ~90k. what if after swan song dean couldn’t make the apple pie life work with lisa, but ended up reconnecting with cas who’s raising claire? this is soooo good I read it in one day and im probably gonna reread it soon I love it so much.

in due time, dean winchester is saved by @badjoices, teen, ~11k. what if little 26 year old pre-series dean showed up in 2021 and saw his future self alive and happy and with cas... warning for suicidal thoughts but there’s a happy ending, I love this one so much the ending really punched me in the gut

three little words  by @myaimistrue, mature, ~2.3k. cas, ambiguously back from the empty, tells dean he loves him and dean has a panic attack. this fic makes me feel so warm inside

you’re fooling yourself by @cowboydeanwinchester, teen, ~13k. baby jack fic baby jack fic!! maybe I’m partial to baby jack because I’m not to real jack in the show yet but I’m beyond obsessed with this fic and the author also wrote a couple more in-universe ficlets it’s so <3

I also have enjoyed pretty much everything from @sobsicles ! 

I have more fics in my bookmarks but these were for the most part the more memorable ones as I went through them just now. If you want more recs feel free to ask <3
