tg's annual sneezefic meme (2018)

[tarotgal]

It's April, which means it's once again time for my annual commentfic meme!

Directions:

1. Post prompts. Any fandom (original fic allowed as well) and any pairing, as long as there is potential sneezing involved character. There is no limit to how many prompts you can post.
2. Please warn for anything current that might be potentially spoilery!
3. Prompt posting will be open while there's interest, most likely until this time next year
4. Reply to any prompts you like with art/drabbles/ficlets/fics in parts/links to fics in your blog. The entry must not be friends-locked.
5. Please warn for anything that might be a trigger including something an emetophobe like me might have a problem with.
6. Prompts can have as many fills as people feel like writing. Just because one person has filled a prompt doesn't mean you can't write for that prompt as well. Different spins on the same thing are absolutely welcome!
7. There will be no deadline for fic responses. If you see a prompt you like and want to write it, go ahead!
8. There's no limit to how many you can write either. WRITE THEM ALL!
9. Please feel free to pimp this on any communities and forums you think would be interested in this.
10. You are allowed to repost prompts from previous or other memes. If the prompt belongs to someone else, just give them credit. You're also more than welcome to reprompt your own!
11. My birthday is April 19. I'm just saying...

All right, let the prompting and filling begin! Have fun, everybody!

Fills:

Supernatural

Can I please have good patient Sam? He’s not super sick or out of it or anything, but for whatever reason he’s happy to let Dean take care of him. As chick flick-y as you like.

Dean is pretty sure he hadn’t initially gone to sleep in the middle of the floor, but nevertheless, that’s where he is when he wakes up, aching and hot, in a darkened room.
How'd I Get Here? by anilkex

Dean sneezes a bunch in the shower and right after he gets out. Can be a regular occurrence or because he’s got a cold or something. If he catches a flurry of post-shower sneezes in a towel that would be THE best.

Five times he ran out of tissues and one time he didn’t.
Five Times Dean Ran Out of Tissues and One Time He Didn’t by tarotgal

Five times it was just allergies and one time it wasn’t.
Four Times it was Allergies and One Time it Wasn't by missbayliss

If anyone feels like playing in my Frayed 'verse, I give you total permission, because Sam is sick and everything is overwhelming and he's seconds away from freaking out constantly and it's just not good, okay?

“You sound stuffy.”
Progression by cowboyguy

Sam Wesson’s caught the office crud that’s going around. Dean Smith couldn’t explain why, but all he knows is he just wants to help make him feel better.
It's A Terrible Life (But Soup Might Help) by sexualoddity

When Sam’s sick the only place he can get any sleep is all squished and bundled up in the back seat of the Impala. King-size motel bed? Doesn’t do it. The comfort of his own room? Not happening. The Impala is home, and it’s the only place he wants to be when he feels crummy.

OMG This ^^^ All of this. You used all the best words and ALL the best sneeze spellings. This is a pure delight. OMG the congestion is just so magical. And I could just imagine Sam's big hands fumbling with tissue after tissue and trying to get that delicious nose of his to cooperate and it just won't. And Dean's just a little frustrated in that irritated way anyone would be listening to that for four days. He just wants it to STOP and obviously so does Sam, but they can't do anything about it. But then he puts his hand on Sam's back and helps him with his nose and it's just MAGICAL. 'Cause big brother Dean can do anything. And Sam's just so exhausted from all this congestion and these thick, heavy sneezes. And then Dean HELPS and UGH this is precious. THIS.

LOVE the reflexive sniff when Dean brings up the sniffling at first. Love Sam headdesking repeatedly because he's just so tired of this (he's even tired of sleeping). Love Dean trying to think of what will help even though he knows only time will really do anything. Love Sam rubbing his fingers against his nose when the sneeze won't come out, so desperate. LOVE LOVE LOVE hheh--nnngTCHHH! … huh! … ahh…. hh’TSCHH! I just... they're so perfect. Love Sam trading the table for Dean, leaning into his brother instead as Dean rubs his back in circles. Oh man, just the simple little images in this are so fantastic and the way you describe them with complex (delicious) details is magical.

One quick layidg that should be lyidg but that's quick to change. Everything else... I mean, it makes me want to give up writing my own stuff and just read it over and over. I'd never have come up with these words. They are so very, very good.

Aww, thank you! Glad you liked it! It was such fun -- and so relaxing -- to just spend a couple of hours this afternoon working on this. So glad I finally had a moment to just stop and write for an extended chunk of time, and making Sammy biserable is the best way to do it! :D

I wish I could use my ability to write stories where literally nothing happens and translate that to actual, plot-driven things. But hey, if I did that, then I might not have time to write stuff like this! And these are so much fun. Thank you for the awesome comment -- but please do continue writing your own stuff, too! The world would be a sad place without tg fics. <3
