serial killer AUs

[jmtorres]

niqaeli and I are discussing serial killer AUs (my depraved kink, and apparently my braintwin is with me) and I mentioned I'd read some SPN stuff where they're crazy, there's nothing that goes bump in the night, they're actual the serial killers they look like to Henrikson et al. I didn't like that much? Like, I want the AU where there's evil shit that goes bump in the night, and they kill it, but they also kill just people, and they're fucked up enough they don't care.

niqaeli suggested they kill their grateful saved victims. With the logic that the evil shit would have killed them anyway.

Dad clearly does not know. Although if he found out? What the fuck would he do? They are fucking badass and have no compunction about killing human beings. He would try to take them down of course but he'd hesitate, they're his sons, and they wouldn't. And John wouldn't want to call in anyone else on it, because they're his kids, damn it, his responsibility, and oh, it would not end well.

We are trying to figure out when they snapped and I suggested that you know, for years killing evil things was enough and then Sam went to Stanford and swore off killing evil things and... slipped, and killed someone that was just human, just normal, hadn't done anything, no excuse. And shit just spiralled.

We are also trying to figure out which of them it would be more awful to have killed Jessica: Dean, to make Sam come back to him, or Sam, so he could cut ties with Stanford and go back to Dean. Someone on my droll was posting about how five years later they still want to know why Dean, having dropped Sam off at home and driven away, came back to save Sam from fire. Clearly either he knew because he set the fire or something ticked over in his head about stuff Sam had been saying in the serial killer vein, and he realized what Sam was about to do.

I do not know why I find serial killer AUs so fascinating but I do. niqaeli and I agree we'd read the hell out of this. If someone else wants to write it. She has Sam and Dean talking about creepy in her head! I am sorry. Sort of. Not very. Still, someone else would have to write it, we are extremely unlikely to pull this one off ourselves.

That sounds very intriguing. And, so so messed up.

*grins*

Really, it's amazing they're as sane as they are.

[niqaeli]

Woman, how much fake crime do I watch? How much *true crime* do I watch? Serial killers fucking fascinate me. See also: ITK!Deb. And the AU!Perennas.

There's a reason we're braintwins, dear.

Also, NNNNGH. Dean and Sam shrugging and taking Dad out because he threatened their unity. Like, just. Not about saving themselves, as such, noooo... it's about the OTHER ONE, Dad fucking threatened the other one he DIES NOW.

[jmtorres]

it's about the OTHER ONE,

Hahahaha so pretty much like show.

[niqaeli]

Well, yeah. That's sort of the appeal of serial killer AUs for me: how little it can take to twist a character around into one. Supernatural's freaking PRIME for that shit. <3
