Why this must be read:

One of my absolute favorite things in Supernatural fandom is the genre known as Winsister, i.e., AUs in which one of the boys (usually Sam) was actually born (and raised) a girl.

This is a vividly beautiful, achy, hot story in which Dean visits his sister Sam at Stanford, has mad hot sex with her, and then leaves, because it doesn't really change anything, even though he's not doing so well without her.

If she was an ocean, he was her beach. Sam's highs had always bolstered him and drowned him. Her lows left him exposed and raw. Since she’d been gone he'd been that way, stretched too thin and always waiting for the next tide to cover him.

Dean was tired of waiting. He was tired of losing himself on the miles of dry, hard asphalt. He had lips that were split from the sun and fingernails lined with the dirt of the dead. He was sick of the stability of land.

Seriously, I know girl!Sam stories are a niche market, but if it's the kind of thing you like, then I think you'll like this story. It's hot and beautifully written and captures all the aching need and love between Sam and Dean in a really short space. And did I mention the hot?

If you do read and enjoy it, please let the author know.
