request of Supernatural fans

[tielan]

All righty, Supernatural fans!

I'm looking for a Supernatural fic recs - specifically one fic that you enjoyed. I don't want fic rec communities, journals that keep fic recs, a link to your own recs or someone else's fiction page. I would like to be linked to a single story that you have read and liked and which comes reasonably close to my (imaginary) ideal SPN fic.

My ideal SPN fic would be something action-adventure-y, reasonably long, with accurate characterisation, affection between the characters, snappy lines, a reasonable premise (as reasonable as SPN premises get), gen (ie. without a focus on romantic/sexual relationships), and no Wincest. Something that's reasonably close to what might be seen in an episode of the show.

I'm not fussed about spoilers or seasons. I doubt I'll ever develop the nerves necessary for me to actually watch Supernatural. However, a lack of watching the show never stopped me from reading X-Files fanfic, so I don't see why the same shouldn't hold for SPN. I may discover otherwise, but in the meantime, I'm willing to be convinced.

If you don't know of any SPN fics matching my request, I'd like to hear from your f-list, if you're willing to send them over here and if they're willing to come!

Uhhh, incest good or bad? Most of the writers I like in that fandom do include it.

I read very little SPN (it's one of those fandoms where I enjoy canon, but don't feel a particular need for fic) but my all-time favorite SPN fic is this one which was rec'd to me by a friend awhile back:

It doesn't exactly fit all of your criteria, but like I said, it's the one *I* liked the best. Since you haven't seen the show ... one of the characters died at the beginning of Season 2, and the basic premise of this story is that a group of Goth teenagers conducting a pretend seance accidentally bring him back to life. I happen to be hugely fond of outsider POVs on events in canon, and this is a really fantastic example of that sort of story. It should be total crack, but instead it's totally engaging and convincing ... and completely gen.
