A couple of fics that I've enjoyed tremendously. Two stories in which Dean was trying to find his way home, Dean the protector in one, the other the protected.
Other Worlds Than These by
mollyamory. Sam/Dean, adult, 15,500 words.
Summary : Dean is lost in a barren desert landscape, his past and his identity stripped from him in the transition between worlds. Guided by a deep internal pull toward a man he only sees in his dreams, Dean crosses the desert alone, on foot, until he finds a strange boy named Sam living in the ruins of an ancient city...
Adult!Dean meets young!Sam!! If you loved that special moment Dean had when he met young Sam in Dark Side Of The Moon, you're going to love this. With whiffs of the Gunslinger and the boy Jake from Stephen King's The Dark Tower series, this is a magnificent story that'll pull you in, in and in.
The Land Of Unlikeness by
aesc. Dean/Castiel, PG-13/R, 11,176 words.
Summary : Once his brain stops turning circles in his skull, he tries to take stock. His gun is gone, and so is Ruby's knife. His body's a cacophony of aches and pains, small, stinging cuts where the sand has worked in. Give him twelve hours and he'll be a walking bruise and muscles that won't work right. Narrowing his eyes, Dean chances a look down the slope and figures, give him twenty-four and he'll be dead.
And oh, what can I say about this lovely, lovely story except I love the love Cas had for Dean, one in which he was ready to give up everything to save the person he was given charge of.
