Fic: Gifts in One Hand

Title: Gifts in One Hand
Author: chasingtides
Fandom: Supernatural
Pairing/characters: Dean and Sam Winchester
Rating: PG
Disclaimer: I don't own these characters, the town, or the mythology. I am not making any kind of money off them.
Prompt: Dean's birth certificate is for 'Deanna Winchester,' same as their grandmother. Bonus points for John learning to raise Dean as a boy.
Summary: Written for lgbtfest: In their time crisscrossing the country hunting evil and hiding out in motel rooms in small town America, Sam and Dean spent a few months living out life in a crossroads town in southern Alabama. Dean loved hunting and loved his family, but he'd learned not to expect anything from anyone else.
Author's Notes: This was actually remarkably hard to write and I'd be here all day if I were listing everyone who helped me - but know that I appreciate it. I drew both from Italian Inquisition records and some Cherokee mythology, as well as local history to Coffee County Alabama.
