The Blood Of The Wicked, SPN AU, gen, rating PG-13, ~7900 words. Written for [livejournal.com profile] spn_summergen, author unknown.
Summary: Struggling with the guilt resulting from the accidental death of his father two years ago, FBI profiler Dean Winchester takes on the case of a spree killer who thinks he's on a mission from God. Not even his brother Sam's best attempts to help can prevent him from letting the case consume him until he runs the very real risk of losing himself entirely.

I like reading stories in which you don't have any idea who the authors are. It gives an extra edge to it, not knowing whether it's going to be good or not, and when you find out that it's good, you're scrambling for a re-read. Which was what I found myself doing with this insanely delicious story, reading and re-reading, trying to guess who the author is.

Sam and Dean as FBI agents? Awesome. Castiel as an insane serial killer, killing in the name of God? Brilliant. And there's Ellen and Ash and Bobby, all still very much recognizable as their canon selves. A perfect AU.

That was a lovely blend of canon and fanon, wasn't it? I was half-expecting to discover that the Cas in that story was really an angel and it was an alternate universe ( as in them being played by Zach or The Trickster or something ) and I'm glad it wasn't. I can't wait to find out who the author is.

You're welcome!

Yeah, it was pretty good, especially since you know how much I don't really like AU fics. But this one, I liked. :)
