Big Bang 2021 Honorable Mentions

So this is going to be the list for this year’s 2021 Big Bang entries that had no explicit sex or mostly bottom!Sam/Jared or equal switching and I’ll label them accordingly! I’ll be updating and reblogging this at the end of each day, give or take. No postings on weekends. Please consider leaving a comment if you read any of these stories, as it is the only payment the author ever receives and the same for the artist and their work. And, as always, head the warnings where the story is posted.

June 28th - Quartet for a Haunting by tsuki-no-bara on LiveJournal. J2 AU.  There’s an abandoned theater in Jared’s neighborhood that’s perfect for him and his friends to take over for their own productions. (Jared makes movies. Misha writes plays. Everyone else has ideas.) Or it would be perfect if it didn’t have a possessive squatter, a mystery who calls himself Ross and sleeps on a mattress on the stage surrounded by his own drawings and musical compositions, under a cloud of tiny Christmas lights conjured with the little magical ability that most people have. Jared thinks he’s making progress in convincing Ross to let him and his friends use the theater, until he learns something entirely unexpected – Ross isn’t a squatter. He’s a ghost. So Jared conceives of a plan to end the haunting, despite his increasing attraction to the ghost he’s trying to send home. But he’ll see his plan through, even though he knows the only possible resolution to this ghost story means he’s going to end up alone. (no penetrative sex onscreen, minor Jared/Matt off screen)

June 30th - Just Be Still With Me by roxymissrose on LiveJournal. Sam/Dean. Wincest.  Sam’s been a vampire ever since Dean turned him for company. It’s been a decade of insanity—murder, torture, blood, gore, sex and violence. The Winchesters have become feral monsters, almost more ghoul than vampire. Trapped together and broken, Dean ultimately commits an ugly murder that drives Sam away. Hitting rock bottom, Sam decides to seek enlightenment, Dean follows–maybe Sam is what he needs to tame the rabid rats in his brain. They’re helped by someone who offers them a shot at a new way of living–a chance to become Winchesters once again. (switching)

July 1st - Heart of the Matter by TammyRenH on Ao3. Jared/Jensen. J2 AU.  Jared and Jensen became a (secret) couple during the first season of Supernatural, the show itself ended at the end of the third season. In the five years since, Jensen’s career has soared but Jared’s been dealing with rejection after rejection. The J’s have a nice house, good friends, Sadie, a good life. Jared is ready for more, to come out as a couple but Jensen isn’t. When Jared accidentally lets their secret slip, the fall out is catastrophic for both of them. Can Jensen find a way to forgive, Jared a way to trust, the two of them a way back to each other? (switching)

July 5th - A Final Dream of Bells by dimeliora on Ao3. Sam/Dean. Wincest AU.  Set after World War I, Sam and Dean Winchester are living in England in after the war, both recovering from their own injuries. They have become famous for hunting frauds that pretend to be mediums and fake hauntings. Their newest case takes place at an all boy’s school in the middle of nowhere. (All bottom!Sam except for one scene) My art for this can be found on LiveJournal here.

July 12th - We all need a second chance by Lia1996 on Ao3. Jared/Jensen. J2 AU.  Jared is a young reporter working for a magazine in Texas, and has a reputation of hating the rich and wealthy. But one day he is asked by his boss to go on a tour with Jensen Ackles, the rockstar, and be the tour’s official reporter. Which means six months of touring around the USA with Jensen. Jared is reluctant at first because be doesn’t think he can take that much fake Hollywood glamour, but since his goal is to be an important photographer and have his own gallery someday, he accepts it. Of course, things start rocky between the two men, but as time goes on Jared starts to learn there is much more to Jensen Ackles than he first assumed. Can they overcome their differences and become friends, or maybe more? (I’m trusting the tags for switching. I don’t have time to vet this today).

July 14th - In the Morning Light Let My Roots Take Flight by zubenschamali on Ao3. Jared/Jensen. J2 AU. Jensen’s a dragon who takes his role as the protector of the Valley of Arnl very seriously. But after a long and difficult winter, plus a stray wyvern trying to hone in on his territory, he’s starting to become desperate. When he foolishly puts himself in harm’s way, it’s the last person he would expect who comes to his rescue. Now he owes that person a favor—a big one.Jared’s a wyvern who lost his sister to a miscreant lord who likes to hunt and capture dragonfolk for fun. He hasn’t dared to try and rescue her on his own, but with a little help from a dragon and a fae queen, he might be able to pull it off. Now all he has to do is pretend to be the opposite of who he really is and hope he can fool Lord Pellegrino. Oh, and deal with a bridge troll named Chad along the way. (no penetrative sex, almost gen)
