Fandom: Supernatural
Genre: AU
Pairing: Dean/Benny
Length: 5,457 words and counting
Author's Summary:
The Winchesters are hunters. They have been since Mary was murdered by a demon. It took them a couple years but John Winchester found it and killed it, but as like most, got sucked into the Hunter Life. He trains his boys to hunt and they excel but Sam hates it. He gets a full ride and heads off to Stanford, keeping sort of in touch with Dean (they see each other every six months). Eventually Dean and John just go their separate ways, their hunting styles are too different. Dean is a damn good hunter, but word is slowly leaking out that he occasionally lets monsters go, other hunters start to distrust him. He lets a vampire Lenore go, and Gordon Walker beats the hell out of him. Dean is alone, tired, and a little broken and sitting in The Roadhouse when a stranger offers him a very strange job.
Review:
This is a really interesting AU that I am very impatiently waiting for updates on. Dean runs a halfway house for reformed/reforming monsters and it is really wonderful. It's a bit more Urban Fantasy/everyday magic than canon because he lives surrounded by the supernatural and Loki tends to fill requests for things magically by snapping them up - basically, it gets a different feel from canon without actually changing any of the rules of the canon 'verse which I think is really great from a storycraft perspective as well as just being interesting. There's not a ton of story yet, but it's definitely one to watch.
