BITCH by arby
ERA: PRESERIES. Teenagers. Locked. Requires AO3 account. This is one of the earliest Wincest fics ever written. Posted to AO3 November 5, 2005. (!!!) A pleasure to read, period, but especially when you consider just how quickly these two characters elicited some of the most elevated smut I’ve ever read. This is a fandom TREASURE.

WHAT REMAINS by annehiggins
SEASON ONE. Dean is revolted by Not!Sam. This is not Soulless Sam. This was written in 2006 and happens late season 1. Maybe a little AU-ish, but not much. It’s original and interesting!

LURK by mistyzeo
ERA: PRESERIES. Teenagers.
Her entire catalog is absolutely top shelf, all ratings, all excellent, but this one is very special. It’s multichaptered but not that long. (Also known in fandom as the Lurk Verse)
Author description: Sam comes home to an unexpected show. Dean's figured something out. They need to be on the same page.

THE BALLAD OF THE INVISIBLE BOY by dollylux
ERA: PRESERIES. 58k. Teenagers. Locked. Requires AO3 account. I knew the minute I read this that it would be a fandom classic one day, and it is. It’s fucking exquisite and hot and sad and angsty and totally believable shy Sam and exhibitionistic Dean.

THINGS MY BROTHER TAUGHT ME by hellzkitten [archived by sinfuldesire_archivist]
ERA: PRESERIES THROUGH SEASON ONE. Also: Casefic! Also: RarePairs! Bonus John/Caleb, which you can easily skip if it squicks you. This is part 1 of a series, a LONG series, but the individual parts aren’t linked together. I have bookmarks on AO3 for all 8 parts (some of which have multiple chapters each), but I think if I could figure out how to navigate to each part, anyone can. IT IS WORTH THE EFFORT. Each story of the 8 has excellent Wincest smut, great worldbuilding, sometimes multiple chapters, an interesting, ongoing case, *John knows* and helps them on the case, no daddycest. Not directly. Caleb makes an appearance as previously described. (Speaking of long fic, this one totals who knows? But it is L O N G. Like I said, 8 parts. Thank you, sinful-desire.net archivist, wherever you are! 🫡)

FLYING WEIGHT by fleshflutter
SEASON 6. Post-Soulless Sam AU, but I’m including it here bc I love it so much. 48,000 words. Angst, consent issues. I’m thrilled that fleshflutter’s fic is still online! It’s all linked, and it’s heartbreaking and beautiful and totally worth it the time. Makes you think. What if? A bit of Dean whump actually. Sam feels so guilty for what he did while soulless, and we get it, but it wasn’t him.

REDSHIFT by road-rhythm
SEASON 8. They finally have a home in the MoL bunker. The Trials have begun. And Dean wants to buy a pool table and have a sex marathon, because of course he does.

THE PARTISAN by nigeltde (Big Bang 2014)
SEASON 9. After his and Dean’s big breakup post-Kevin’s death, Sam has to finally return to the Bunker and face Dean. He tries to keep it strictly professional between he and his brother. He fails. (To be fair, Dean is so lovely in this one, who could resist? He’s also patient.)

the bob's burgers eras (to me)
seasons 1 and 2 (or production-wise just season one): edgy beginning era with looser style of animation
season 3: not early bob's burgers and not classic bob's burgers but a secret third thing
seasons 4-6: classic era that most people will associate their favorite episodes with (pre-season 13 at least)
seasons 7-9: Trying to experiment a bit with episodes and bring in new secondary characters era. keeping it fresh
seasons 10-12: what some people may consider to be "the worst seasons" and what i consider to be really fun and rewatchable more lighthearted adventure stories Era
bob's burgers movie era
seasons 13 and 14: renaissance era with experimental storytelling and more focus on serious emotional stories and the family's relationship to each other. also more focus on character's growing up and how their lives will change (despite the characters not LITERALLY growing up)
