[Fic] I Reject Your Reality (And Substitute My Own)

Title: I Reject Your Reality (And Substitute My Own)
Rating: PG
Pairing: Sam/Dean
Wordcount: 233
Summary: [livejournal.com profile] waterofthemoon said, "Clex, you should write me some John finds out about Sam/Dean where John is not a bastard," and so I did.
Notes/Acknowledgments: Betad by [livejournal.com profile] waterofthemoon.

In his head, it's not that.

It's kissing, not sex. He can convince himself that they're okay, that he didn't ruin them. They just kiss sometimes, that's all.

It's not like it was completely unnatural for them. Sam never grew out of that phase where he wanted to be Dean's shadow, not even when he finally got that Winchester mouth and every other thing out of it was how Dean had no brain of his own—and if Sam only knew the amount of time Dean stared John down for Sam's random crap, he'd be singing a different song.

And Dean can't say no to Sam. John won't let himself remember every time Dean was the one who played bad cop and told Sam he couldn't go on the field trip, stay the night at some kid's house, or get some stupid, expensive toy he was gonna hate in a week anyway.

It's not like it's random. He didn't just walk into the motel and find them kissing at the table or anything. Dean was hurt bad, and they weren't sure he was gonna be a hundred percent again. Sam was worried and angry and so frustrated at the lack of news that he couldn't even talk right.

When Dean finally woke up, after they took out the tubing and the doctors ran their tests, Sam just needed some kind of reassurance.

That's all.

I loved experiencing this as I read it. I've got that last scene in my head now, and I want Kripke to flash us back there. Whether John likes it or not.

[identity profile] clex_monkie89.livejournal.com 2009-11-24 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
Dude, Kripke totally needs to get on that yesterday, man.

Yes! Wonderful. There just isn't enough of this John in fandom. ♥

[identity profile] clex_monkie89.livejournal.com 2009-11-24 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
I totally agree, more people need to write John.

[identity profile] saavikam77.livejournal.com 2009-11-12 02:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, John. So much denial. But whatever he needs to tell himself.

Lovely bittersweet ficlet. :)

One of my favorite subgenres in our fandom is "John finds out." This is lovely, understated, and perfectly in character for John in this situation. The way you acknowledge John's culpability and also extend the characterization of young Sam and Dean is brilliant. Bravo!

This. This I love. I want to rec this far and wide. And praise it. And point to it and say, "See? See how easy it is to write an understanding John? SEE??"
