Summary
Dean has NO idea what to do when the wall breaks in Sam's mind and Sam's first move--once he's conscious again--is to try and 'service' him. So he sends Sam away on the spot, and Castiel brings Sam to Hayden’s apartment (original character).
Hayden and Sam have been best friends since high school. And even though she had no idea Sam was in Hell, or soulless, she readily takes up the challenge of helping him recover. But...it won't be easy. Or fast. 120 years of training and constant visions of Hell in Hayden's apartment keep Sam convinced he's in danger. It will take all of her attention to help him recover...and more magic than she knew she had.
(Formerly 'Look Closely')
*Of note: This story simplifies the cannon. It pretends the entire storyline of God Castiel didn't happen, Castiel brought his body back, put the barrier up to keep him from remembering, then when he realized there was no soul, Death got it and put it back at Dean's request, which shatters the wall. (Also that ONLY Sam and Lucifer were in the cage.)*

Summary
It's a bit of an acquired taste for both of them. Dean struggles with allowing anyone else to touch Sam, much less fuck him. And Sam has to bite back panic when he relinquishes control, every time he does it. But they both love to toy with the sharpness of jealousy and physical pain. And pre-arranged anonymous gangbangs certainly let them do that.

Summary
Words don't always carry the same meaning when translated into another language. The same goes for Enochian, and the words Sam screams in the throes of his flashbacks detail anguish and pain and the hopeless begging brought on by repeated violation.

(Castiel bears witness to the horrors of Sam's cage trauma, and he's determined to help Sam associate Enochian with gentleness and love instead). -

Summary
When the AU battle at the end of season 13 goes wrong, Sam unleashes the fragment of God’s Grace he unknowingly carried from the Cage. The Archangels feel their Father’s presence and follow him through the portal—straight into the bunker.
Now Dean is furious, Mary is confused, Jack is reeling, and Castiel is the only one who knows the truth: Sam isn’t God at all. But the Archangels don’t care. They’re too tired, too desperate, too hungry for love.
Sam has no idea how long he can keep up the lie—only that if he fails, the world ends.

Summary
“De—eaa,” Sam forces out, his tongue burning at the unfamiliar word, a horrible fear setting deep within him like ice—Lucifer doesn’t like it when he speaks English. Lucifer doesn’t like it when he calls for Dean. He’s going to be mad he’s going to hurt him hurt him hurt him—
Sam just doesn’t want to hurt anymore.
A clamouring sound to his right shocks him out of his spiralling, and he recoils against a hard wall, opening his eyes—he didn’t realise he closed them, the Cage was always so dark, so thick and suffocating and cold—to see a face he’s dreamed of. One he thought he’d never see again.
“Dean,” he finally manages to whisper, tears of relief and just a bit of fear pricking at his too-clear eyes.
Dean says something back, the words garbled to Sam’s ears as if they’re coming from underwater, and then he’s coming closer, hands twitching by his sides and steps uncharacteristically hesitant.
The wall that Death erected to protect Sam’s mind is unsuccessful, leaving the hunter to navigate centuries’ worth of memories and suffering. And after nearly two centuries of speaking Enochian, Sam isn’t sure he can remember how to speak English.

Summary
Sam Winchester is standing barefoot in the middle of her backyard. Now, this alone is weird enough, but combined with the fact that all he’s wearing in this sub-ten-degree weather are boxers and a light shirt, and he hasn’t moved an inch in the whole five minutes she's stood at the back door watching him, Jody’s starting to feel more than just a little concerned.

Summary
The only reason Sam’s upright instead of collapsed on the floor is because Dean’s got him pinned to the wall, so really, he ought to be grateful. Then again, it was Dean who broke his legs in the first place, so on second thought, maybe not.

Summary
Sam’s curled up tight in the backseat of a beat-up Dodge Charger, pale-faced and scratched to all hell and looking so fragile it wouldn’t be a surprise if so much as a gust of wind sent him crumbling into dust. But he’s also asleep, and that alone quashes any doubts Dean might have had about bringing him home.
