Are you ready for a legit romance with all the fluff, angst, hurt/comfort… and a smattering of smut, with one Sam Winchester?

The care and time @princessmisery666 spent on this beautifully crafted story are evident right from the start. It checks all the boxes for me regarding a great romance with a happily ever after.

[rakshaspeaks]

Wait hold up I forgot Sam canonically described Dean as ‘a male model type’ shskksskk 😆 😆

[princessmisery666]

Oh I have loads but I distinctly remember…

Samnesia - the scene of how they first met, her sneaking into the back seat of the Impala. I’d read some real life story’s of how people had got out of bad dates and it got me thinking of how one of the boys help someone do the same. That spawned the whole thing that took 3 years to write and post.

Under The Radar - the whole of part 3 was supposed to be a one shot and is where I started and the story that the conversation with @sfreeborn sparked, but I didn’t want to talk AT the reader about reader and Jake’s past, I needed to SHOW the relationship with Jake and it turned into a monster of a series.

Also the very last scene of Perfectly Broken, her running through the battle field looking for Bucky is where I started and the rest wrote itself.

This post from @creativepromptsforwriting hit my dash again, and in thinking about my own writing and artistic pieces, my curiosity was piqued. (FYI-Jana has some amazing prompts on her blog to help spark inspiration.)

I'd love to hear about that one scene that spawned an entire story or creative piece.

Many of my stories start that way. I wake up with an idea or something hits me out of the blue and then it blossoms from there.

In Together We Are the Storm it was the scene where he pins her against the wall. I wanted that anger and the realization of their feelings. The admission to themselves and to each other.

There rest of the story was built around that.

Anyone else want to share?

Tagging a few peeps who might be willing to share. No obligation to do so, though.❤️

Amnesia - Part 6

I actually spent a lot of my weekend working on my own fic, that one day hopefully you’ll see on Ao3, so between that and Ao3 going down again, I didn’t get a lot read sadly.

regarding us by casdoms   Ao3

Set S12.  Waiting for Rowena to complete the spell to restore his memory, Dean is looking through his texts and wonders if he and this Cas are in love because it looks like they might be from what they send each other.

Word Count: 2k                                 No Sex

I Did Not Marry One of Those Dicks with Wings – alivinghumangirl   Ao3

Nonspecific timeframe. Waking up in a cabin isn’t strange. Waking up with a stranger claiming to be his husband and an angel isn’t something Dean needs.

Word Count: 13k                              Graphic Sexual Acts

The Spark That Guides You Home – enigmaticblue   LiveJournal

Set S8 AU.  For 3 years Sam looked for a way of getting Dean back from purgatory while becoming the new Bobby in the hunter network, only to have him turn up not looking a day older but personality-wise much different. When they find Cas who has a reoccurring amnesia problem, sticking together may be the way for them to heal.

Word Count: 24k                              No Sex

Here in the quiet light – allthismusic   Ao3

15x20 didn’t happen AU.   The empty’s condition of releasing Cas to Jack and Sam is taking all his memories of Dean.

Word Count: 6k                                 No Sex

The Infamous Case of Samnesia – spookyskittles   Ao3

Nonspecific timeframe. A spell has knocked out 2 years of Sam’s memories.  The spell will wear off in 48 hours, but the catch is that he can’t know he’s got amnesia or the memories will be gone forever.  He’s now suspicious because it seems like Dean and Cas are a lot more than they are letting on, and Sam is going to prove it.

Word Count: 9k                                 No Sex

WITHOUT FURTHER ADO, HERE ARE THIS MONTH’S ANGEL FISH AWARDS!

The Hart (series) by @bamby0304

This is a rewrite of the show with an OC! It includes so many twist and turns!! I'm so in love with the way its portrayed!!! Such a great series 100% recommend!

Goodnight by @waywardnerd67

This is such a cute little gen fic! It's so fluffy, and exactly how I would imagine downtown with the boys between hunts would be.

Samnesia by @princessmisery666

Oh, this one hurts, but it's also fluffy and smutty and sweet! *SWOON*

~*~*~

Nominated by @princessmisery666

Dean drabble by @girl-next-door-writes

Absolutely love this, was fun and sweet. Nice to see Dean happy for a change. 

Sam drabble by @girl-next-door-writes

I will forever scream and shout about @girl-next-door-writes. I love everything about this, it was funny and sweet and awkward adorable Sam is always a win for me 🤩

Trick or Treat by @talesmaniac89

Sweet and fun, I could just picture Dean's face when he opened the door.

Reluctant Renegade (series) by @wayward-dreamer

Totally freaked out when dumblr couldn't find the fic from my reblog but a URL change is all it was 😅... Okay, I'm not usually one for AU's but this hooked me from the prologue, I need to find time to catch up but will definitely be finishing this one soon. 

~*~*~

Nominated by @thing-you-do-with-that-thing

About a Boy (series) by @percywinchester27

This fic deserves a hell of a lot more love than it got. It's a weechester au and it's so amazingly well written. Weechester fics arent the easiest to begin with and doing it in au is a step up. Ana makes it seem easy. Her sense of timing and her effortless way of building a story blows me away. Not to mention no matter the age or universe she puts our beloved characters in she always manage to keep them in character and easily recognizable. She is a true master.

THANK YOU ALL FOR THE AWESOME WORK AND GREAT FEEDBACK!

These are not actual awards, as in, there is no competition! This system is set up so everyone has a chance to share the love and promote a fic/author in the Pond that has grabbed your attention. The more people that participate, the better this will be :D

THANK YOU ALL AGAIN, KEEP UP THE AMAZING WORK, AND AS ALWAYS, HAPPY WRITING!

#can we call it samnesia#when he conveniently forgets things about his brother#that don't fit with his idea of who dean is ( @grey2510 )

SAMNESIA!

he knew what it meant. 

[diminuel]

hi! would you happen to know of a destiel fic where sam loses his memory because he sees cas and dean in a compromising position and due to that he doesnt know that cas and dean are a couple and they cant tell him?

Sorry for the late reply, it took me a while to do my “research”! I came back with this offering:

The Infamous Case of Samnesia by spookyskittles

Summary:

Sam gets hit by a witch’s spell working a case in Omaha, Nebraska. Though it causes only mild, temporary amnesia, being explicitly aware of it could potentially worsen the symptoms, so Dean and Cas have to keep mum about it. This doesn’t help the amnesiac Sam, who starts trying to uncover their “secret” relationship.

Is it this one? Because I think that’s the one I read with that premise :3
