briarwood: (SPN Meg Blue)
...seems an appropriate date to launch a Supernatural challenge.

SPN Summergen anonymous fic exchange
[livejournal.com profile] spn_summergen [livejournal.com profile] spn_summergen [livejournal.com profile] spn_summergen


Summergen 2012 signups are open!

I've modded this challenge for three years now. Or is it four? And this year is my last; I am bowing out and handing over to my fabulous co-mods. But in the meantime, this is still my favourite challenge in SPN fandom and not because I'm the mod. It's because it without fail produces some fabulous fic every year.

Go ahead, check it out! [livejournal.com profile] spn_summergen

Title: Hunter's Haven
Author: Morgan Briarwood
Fandom: Haven/Supernatural
Wordcount: 24,500
Rating: Mature
Characters: Audrey Parker, Reverend Driscoll, Duke Crocker, Nathan Wuornos, John Winchester, Gabriel
Spoilers: Spoilers for Haven up to 2.10: Who, What, Where, Wendigo and for Supernatural up to 5.22: Swan Song
Notes: Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] deadflowers5 for hosting [livejournal.com profile] john_w_bigbang and to [livejournal.com profile] bdrixhaettc for the amazing artwork. I swore off big bangs this year, but how could I resist one dedicated to John Winchester? I first started this story after the shape-shifter episode of Haven - it was so close to the Supernatural version of shape-shifters I couldn't resist. Then I got to thinking how someone like John would fit into Haven. This story is the result of those musings. I hope you enjoy it.

Summary: Haven, Maine is a town full of mysteries, but even among the weirdness, John Winchester is a puzzle. At first, Audrey Parker is only intrigued. When a series of strange deaths appears to involve him, she decides she needs to solve the puzzle soon. But John, too, is trying to solve one of Haven's mysteries, and this one involves Audrey herself.

briarwood: Castiel (SPN Castiel)
Title: Hour of Need
Fandom: Supernatural
Rating: Mature
Pairing(s): Anna/Castiel, Haley Collins/Kat
Genre: AU
Warning(s): None for this chapter. The story as a whole contains some stuff which isn't usually warned for, but which squicks me out, so (highlight to reveal) fair warning - this story involves pregnancy and childbirth. And also zombies :)

Summary: Lucifer has his chosen vessel and is stronger than ever. Dean fights on with his small band of allies, but it seems there is little hope. In a desperate attempt to help him, Castiel enlists Anna to raise John Winchester from the dead. Her success has consequences none of them could have predicted. Sequel to When The World Is Burning.

Notes: This is the second story of three. The way the trilogy is structured is not exactly chronological: When The World Is Burning comes first, then stories two and three start in the same place. Story two, Hour of Need follows some minor characters, with the Winchesters in lesser roles. Story three takes place in parallel to this one and will follow the Winchesters more closely.

Notes: I'm almost finished writing this one. Normally I would wait and post when it's finished, but I decided to post chapter one so I won't be tempted to enter it for [livejournal.com profile] spn_j2_bigbang It would be a royal pain in the arse to categorise for the big bang anyway, since it's got both het and femslash pairings.

Title: Kingdom Come
Author: Morgan Briarwood
Fandom: Supernatural
Wordcount: 32,000 approx
Rating: Mature

Wordcount: 14,800
Rating: Mature (Gen)
Warning(s): None
Notes: Written for [livejournal.com profile] rainylemons in [livejournal.com profile] spn_summergen 2011. Now released into the wild :)

Summary: In 1997, the Winchesters were forced to abandon a hunt when Sam became sick. Ten years later, Sam's life might depend on Dean figuring out exactly what happened back then, but all he has to go on are some cryptic hints in Dad's journal. The trail leads the brothers to a former FBI agent, Fox Mulder, but what did an alien-obsessed Fed have to do with their Dad? (Timeline: set in SPN season 2, in the summer before the movie X-Files: I Want To Believe)

Read Driver Picks the Music at AO3 or in the summergen community.
briarwood: Supernatural: John Winchester (SPN John Waiting)

So, I, um, I wrote fic. See, I was watching Pirates of the Carribean and all that talk about the pirate code sent my brain off on a weird tangent. And I started writing. Of course, being me, it turned out angsty and not at all pirate-like.

Title: When The World Is Burning
Author: Morgan Briarwood
Fandom: Supernatural
Wordcount: 54,347
Rating: Mature (adult themes, no explicit sex)
Pairings: Sam/Lenore, Dean/Jo
Characters: Dean, Sam, Lenore, Bobby, Castiel, Jo, Ellen, Lucifer, original characters.
Warning(s): (highlight to reveal) |Mentions of rape, imprisonment, drug and alcohol abuse and related PTSD. There's some gory detail in the case-related parts and one scene of torture (Dean, Hell) which might be triggering for some readers. Also, there's some stuff about a religious cult which I guess could be problematic if a reader has been in that situation.|
Notes: Written for [livejournal.com profile] spn_j2_bigbang 2011. Although there are het pairings in the story, this isn't a romance fic. It's really about Sam and Dean.

Summary: AU from Lucifer Rising. The Apocalypse is here. Lucifer walks the Earth. The angels say one man is destined to stop the world going down in blood and flame: Dean Winchester. But Dean is not interested in saving the world without the brother he loves, and Sam is dying.

briarwood: Supernatural - Sam in 5.21 (SPN Sam 521)
I've gotten out of the habit of commenting on new SPN episodes, but three questions/observations...

Spoilery beneat the cut )

I've been re-watching season one this week and remembering why I fell so hard in love with everything about the Winchesters. What have they done to my show???
briarwood: Syfy Haven - Audrey, Duke and Nathan beneath the weathervane (Haven Trio)

I'm not too sure where this story is going...if anywhere. The plot is a big jumble in my mind right now, but since this is the first thing I've managed to write in what feels like ages, I'm posting anyway. This is a little over 2,000 words, it's coherent and I think it's a setup interesting enough to continue. It's gen, so far. I don't plan to change that, but who knows?

Timeline: Haven - between 109 As You Were and 110 The Hand You're Dealt; Supernatural - sometime in season 5. But you shouldn't need more than a vague familiarity with either to read this.

Let me know if you think it's worth continuing...please?

briarwood: Fic icon for 'The Haunting of Jessica Moore' (SPN Jessica (Fic))

Title: The Haunting of Jessica Moore
Author: Morgan Briarwood / [personal profile] briarwood
Fandom: Supernatural
Genre: Het, Pre-series, AU(ish)
Rating: Adult
Characters/Pairing: Sam/Jess, Dean, Brady, Original Characters.
Words: 36,000 approx
Warnings: (highlight to reveal) Violent death (of a non-canon character) See my warnings policy.
Summary: Written for [community profile] ladiesbigbang: Jessica loved cheesy horror movies and ghost stories, but she didn't believe in any of it. They were college kids, having fun on a summer vacation. All that talk about the house being haunted was just joking around. When one of her friends had a frightening accident, it didn't seem so funny any more. And just why did Jessica's brand-new boyfriend, Sam, insist on buying so much salt?
Disclaimer: Supernatural belongs to Eric Kripke et. al. But they left Jessica in a refrigerator, so I figure it's only fair I let her out and give her a story of her own.

briarwood: Supernatural Crossover bigbang (SPN XBigBang2)

Title: Trust Doesn’t Rust
Author: Morgan Briarwood / [personal profile] briarwood
Fandom: Supernatural/Jennifer’s Body
Timeline: Supernatural - AU from 5.03 Free To Be You And Me; Jennifer’s Body - post movie
Genre: Het, Crossover, AU
Characters/Pairing: Dean Winchester, Sam Winchester, Castiel, Lucifer, Needy Lesnicki, Jennifer Check. Sam/Needy is the het pairing.
Rating: Mature
Warnings: Graphic violence (not rape, though rape is mentioned in the story, briefly); implied Sam/Dean, but no more than is canon; implied Jennifer/Needy, again no more than is canon.
Notes: Written for [info]sncross_bigbang. Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] raynedanser and [livejournal.com profile] thanatos_kalos for beta help and special thanks to Mel for music advice: she is to blame - or to thank - for Dean singing Bob Dylan.

Summary: For Anita “Needy” Lesnicki, life really sucks. Six months ago she was your average high school girl. That was before her best friend Jennifer turned into a demon and ate Needy's boyfriend at the prom. Now Needy has escaped from a nuthouse, she’s wanted for murder (they totally deserved it), she’s got some kind of demonic infection and she’s on the run with no money, no car and nothing to wear but a bright orange prison jump suit. She’s pretty sure her life sucks the worst. But then she runs into Sam Winchester, ex-demon-blood junkie, ex-hero and ex-antichrist. His story (the Apocalypse, seriously?) makes the last few months of Needy’s life seem like a trip to Disneyland. Meanwhile, Dean Winchester is trying to figure out just what kind of supernatural creature slaughtered the members of a successful a rock band, unaware that the trail will lead him right where he doesn’t want to go: back to his estranged brother.
