New Enhanced Edition - LACON 2009 - Main J2 Panel
Direct link to video. Link to YouTube channel. (37 videos available.)
Here's a new J2 video! This is very close to the full panel, although about 7 minutes' worth will be audio-only coverage. If you weren't a fan back in these earlier years, or if you've never run across the audio recordings, some of this coverage may be new to you.
There's also a short gap with no coverage at all when they were giving their closing remarks, but thanks to j2wiki's transcript from back when more footage was available, I was able to put a transcript of what was missed in the sidebar
The video quality is quite low (when it's not absent altogether!), but there's so much hilarity in this panel that it's still worth watching. The above thumbnail will probably remind you of one of the funny parts if you've seen this panel before.
What's Next?
Next up is Misha's solo panel. It took place later in the day after this J2 panel. This was only his second convention.
I have about 43.5 minutes' worth of coverage with a gap of unknown length somewhere in the middle. About 12 minutes of the coverage will be audio-only. 11 minutes is all in one big section with no video and the rest is scattered across very small bits of video gaps. That extra audio content is a major reason why I decided to do Misha's panel too; I like it when I feel like I can add something that isn't readily available to the fandom and probably hasn't been seen (or heard in this case!) by as many people.
I'm going to aim for a 6-week turnaround time. I'll finish sooner if I can, but I'm still having some trouble keeping up with everything on my plate at the moment. I'll also be out of town for a few days soon which means I'll lose some video editing days. I'm trying to give myself some breathing room to keep the stress levels from climbing too high.
After I finish Misha's panel, I plan to tackle Asylum #3 from 2009 which should be quite an endeavor! I haven't watched those videos in a long time, but I remember them as being in bad shape. I'm pretty sure there won't be any complete panels, but I'm not sure how bad it will be. I'll see what I find once I start digging into the footage in a few weeks. They had a J2 panel, two solo Jared panels, and one solo Jensen panel.
Before/After Comparison Photos
This source was used for about 6.5 minutes' worth of the video. I also used 14.5 minutes' worth of their audio. I used bits and pieces from several other sources that are credited in my video description on YouTube. I also used about 9 minutes of video from various clips that Candygramme sent me from her archives. They appear to be from a few different sources that I didn't see on YouTube, with different angles and different levels of quality.
If you're unfamiliar with this project...
Check out the pinned post on my blog. It has more details about what I'm doing. I also keep it updated with links to all my videos and a note about which panel I'm currently working on.
Do you have any "must read" Sam fanfics? Like the ones that you feel like every Sam girl should read at one point in their lives..? I have seen this asked a lot in shipping blogs where they have some of the oldies fanfics that are like yk must be read if you ship them so I thought to ask if you have any..totally okay if you don't.
Hi Samfic noni,
I do have a lot of fics that i feel every Sam girl should read, however, you mentioned 'if you ship them'. Are you looking for Sam fics that are revolved around ships? If yes, then my list may not work for you because more than ships, I am interested in reading Sam whump or case fics focused on Sam whump or Sam's psyche. But if that's still up your alley, here are my recommendations, with my comments in Italics within the brackets:
When Darkness Calls by bambers2: The hunters become the hunted when an elusive stalker sets his sights on the Winchester boys. Murder dogs their path, danger lurks in the most innocent of places, and there is nowhere to hide When Darkness Calls. (Like oh my god you need to read this because the suspense, the whump, the characters are soooo good and creepy!!!)
Whispers in the Dark by bambers2: Sequel to 'When Darkness Calls'. Dean had kept the secret for a year. He believed the danger had passed. They'd just begun rebuilding their lives, and then the phone rang . . . Charlie's back and this time he has supernatural abilites... (This has to be the epitome of fics on hiatus for too long. But i have waited and the writer did come back to finish it and it's so amazing!!!)
Destruction Trilogy by Winchester Mythology (previously Fiery Charizard)
Destruction Trilogy: Broken: Post Season 11. Dean gets back to the bunker to find a pool of blood and no Sam. Thus he begins the biggest hunt of his life. But as time moves on, Dean becomes more and more desperate. Sloppy. Will the hunter become the hunted? And what really happened to Sam? My take on the start of S12! Major S11 spoilers (Anyone who loved Toni torturing Sam in S12 will guaranteed looooove this trilogy.. oh my god, Sam whump is so delicious in this one!)
Destruction Trilogy: Fractured: Sequel to Broken. They took everything from him. Now it's his turn. Sam survived his torture at the hands of Toni Bevell in body if not in mind. Safe back at the bunker, Dean must nurse him through the aftermath, unaware that a familiar face has set his sights on revenge. Sam's not convinced anything is even real. Will Dean be able to pull him back from the brink?
Destruction Trilogy: Splint: They broke him: took away everything he had. Now Sam Winchester is on the run from those he loves most. Caught in a delusion where everyone - and everything - is a lie, he must fight to pick up the life he lost. Desperate to right the wrongs done to his brother, Dean must conquer his own demons to have even the slightest chance of saving him. But is Sam just too far gone?
Prophecy of an Abomination (Duology) by ashitanoyuki
Prophecy of an Abomination: Sam wants to be normal. Sometimes, it's harder than he'd like to keep faith in God. Or: a story of religious!Sam plus powers!Sam culminating in horrifying Sam whump (with eventual comfort to go with the hurt). A character study of the first two seasons that sharply diverges in season two (This one is graphic but so well done if you are not triggered by the themes)
Prophecy of an Abomination (Abridged): Sam is kidnapped by fanatically religious hunters and crucified. Coming back from this won't be easy. Canon-divergent from midway through season 2.
Getting Lower Ever Since by vail_kagami: While Castiel took Dean for a trip to the past, other angels took Sam for a somewhat different purpose. Dean is not amused. (One-shot but really good read)
Sanctuary by Cheryl W: When Dean's near misses with death start adding up, Sam is brutally reminded that there is no such thing as just having a bad day when you are a Winchester. No Slash. (Good ol' whump story)
Countdown to Destroy Yourself by SammysMissingShoe: "But that new day marked yet another sleepless night. He was at four now. That number haunted him, because as of that day, it meant, it he was lucky, he had at most- one week left to live. But when had Sam ever been lucky?" (Cage fic. These are so rare but so good)
Accidental Prayer by SammysMissingShoe: First he loses his brother, then he gets shot and kidnapped and tortured by Men and Women of Letters for information about his life. Today was a rough day for Sam Winchester. As you can expect, excessive hurt&tortured!Sam, based off of season twelve trailer and promotional pictures. Just my speculation/wishful thinking, I own nothing. (One shot for S012E01)
The Institute (Duology) by ephiny63
The Institute: The Winchester brothers fight anything Supernatural but what happens if the ones they are fighting are human. Taking psychics for experimentation at the Institute to find out how to harness their abilities. Can Dean save Sam? warnings inside R&R. (Interesting for a non-monster fic)
Institute Revisited with Extreme Prejudice: Sequel to The Institute Sloane manages to take Sam and replace his clone with the others. Can they find the real Sam before its too late? Hurt!SamX2, Original and Clone! Hurt!Dean. Mayhem ensues. Rated for violence and adult themes.
Come lay bones on the alabaster stones by caranfindel: A season 7 AU that takes place after Sam gets his memories of Hell back. At night, Sam dreams of being tortured in Hell. During the day, his dreams start coming true, except they're happening to other people. (Ohh this one is sooooo good and the twist was unexpected. LOVE THIS!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND)
tetelestai by remy (iamremy): Written for the Sam Winchester Prompt-a-Thon - the prompt is "crucifixion". The boy with the demon blood must be cleansed. (Another well done crucifixion fic)
12 Feet Under by Youremyalways: On a hunt that takes them to an abandoned mental Institution, Sam finds himself chained to the bottom of a cement tank with water rising by the second. Will Dean find him in time? (One-shot drowning fic)
Paint Me a Monster by TheMarvelousTolkienJob: Sam is a freak. He knows that and, after everything that happened with Ruby and the demon blood, Dean finally does too. Not that they actually talk about it or anything. No, they wait around for Sam to be kidnapped and tortured before they do that. (This got me hooked from the get-go! Loved the voicemail fix it)
Lastly, shameful promotion of my fics too in case you haven't read them. I mostly write lot of Sam Whump myself (no surprise there) but there might one-two fics that focus a little on relationships. I don't know, you can check it for yourself here!
Please do check the warnings and tags before proceeding. As I mentioned, I love reading Sam Whump/Torture fics and some of these go really graphic (including mine) and may not be everyone's cup of tea. If you are okay reading whump, these are really satisfying!
Note to self: I should probably add these to my recommendation on SPN fanfic masterlist
Omg omg omg omg.. hear me out.. i was watching Supernatural S08E05 and it occurred to me how awesome it would have been if in S12E01, the vet that Toni takes Sam to get his bullet wound sutured turned out to be Amelia?! Ughh I can imagine it vividly... toni holding a guy at Amelia.. telling her to get moving on the stitches.. Amelia refusing at first not afraid of being threatened.. so Toni shoots Sam in the other leg. "The next one goes in his pretty head", she threatens. Sam gasping in pain.. Amelia in tears working on Sam, pulling the bullet out.. ughh what a missed opportunity

Oh MY GOD!! Your recs looks sooooo tempting!! I can't wait to devour them tonight!!! And noooo I did not meant that in a Sam ship way at all...I just meant that this type of question is what I have seen been typically asked in shipping blogs..sonI just wanted to see if this type of asks work in just Sam centric fics. I also loooove Sam whump. Like they are so fucking good and the angst omg. Seeing and reading Sam in pain is my dopamine. Thank you for those recs. I am in for a treat!!
Hi again Samfic noni!
I am so happy that you loved my recommendations. These are some of the best Sam Whump fics I have read. Some have a touch of comfort and some don't but all of those are so delicious when it comes to hurting him. Oh and in this case you might love reading my fics too (i hope!) because I write a lot of Sam whump (really, most of them are just an excuse to hurt him lol) except for Tumblr prompts which are mostly reader inserts. So feel free to check some of my fics too.
I will link my Supernatural Fanfic Masterlist in case you want to test waters. If you are dying to read more Hurt Sam that is downright unhinged, you can start with Ruins of a Soul (cage fic), Sins of the Past (case fic), A Body Can Only Take So Much (medical fic), Hemlock and Honey (case fic), House of Cards (short fic but check TW), Brother Mine (Demon!Dean fic but WIP), Hunting Trails (Crossover with Friday the 13th but it's WIP), A Stranger in a Stranger Land (Crossover with Walker and WIP)
Always happy to chat with someone who loves Sam hurt as much as i do!

The Institute: The Winchester brothers fight anything Supernatural but what happens if the ones they are fighting are human. Taking psychics for experimentation at the Institute to find out how to harness their abilities. Can Dean save Sam? warnings inside R&R. (Interesting for a non-monster fic)
Institute Revisited with Extreme Prejudice: Sequel to The Institute Sloane manages to take Sam and replace his clone with the others. Can they find the real Sam before its too late? Hurt!SamX2, Original and Clone! Hurt!Dean. Mayhem ensues. Rated for violence and adult themes.
Come lay bones on the alabaster stones by caranfindel: A season 7 AU that takes place after Sam gets his memories of Hell back. At night, Sam dreams of being tortured in Hell. During the day, his dreams start coming true, except they're happening to other people. (Ohh this one is sooooo good and the twist was unexpected. LOVE THIS!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND)
tetelestai by remy (iamremy): Written for the Sam Winchester Prompt-a-Thon - the prompt is "crucifixion". The boy with the demon blood must be cleansed. (Another well done crucifixion fic)
12 Feet Under by Youremyalways: On a hunt that takes them to an abandoned mental Institution, Sam finds himself chained to the bottom of a cement tank with water rising by the second. Will Dean find him in time? (One-shot drowning fic)
Paint Me a Monster by TheMarvelousTolkienJob: Sam is a freak. He knows that and, after everything that happened with Ruby and the demon blood, Dean finally does too. Not that they actually talk about it or anything. No, they wait around for Sam to be kidnapped and tortured before they do that. (This got me hooked from the get-go! Loved the voicemail fix it)
Lastly, shameful promotion of my fics too in case you haven't read them. I mostly write lot of Sam Whump myself (no surprise there) but there might one-two fics that focus a little on relationships. I don't know, you can check it for yourself here!
Please do check the warnings and tags before proceeding. As I mentioned, I love reading Sam Whump/Torture fics and some of these go really graphic (including mine) and may not be everyone's cup of tea. If you are okay reading whump, these are really satisfying!
Note to self: I should probably add these to my recommendation on SPN fanfic masterlist

Heroes Comic Con with Jared and Sam Smith - Panel from Sunday, May 31, 2026
I'm a little slow, this went up 6 hours ago, but I didn't see it posted on Tumblr yet. Sorry if I'm duplicating anyone. Shared by Sara Klingberg. (Tumblr doesn't seem to want to create a hyperlink today. Here's the channel's address: https://www.youtube.com/@S.Klingan)
If I see any other versions, I'll add them in a reblog to this post.
There was a Saturday panel too, so if/when a video goes up from that one I'll create a new post.
New Enhanced Edition - LACON 2009 - Solo Jared Panel
Direct link to video. Link to YouTube channel. (36 videos available.)
Jared's solo video from LA 2009 is now up! There's also a fun little bit between Jared and Jensen at the end when Jensen comes back on stage for their combined panel, although it's probably funnier if you've already watched Jensen's solo panel too.
Footage Notes
This is a short one at only 21 minutes, but it's very close to the complete panel. There's just one gap in the middle of one of Jared's answers. The missing words according to j2wiki's transcript will be in the sidebar when the gap happens.
There are about 2 minutes of audio-only coverage scattered throughout the video in 6 short segments. This video is way more coherent than it would have been without the audio recordings by juice817 on LJ to tie some of the disconnected clips together. I used most of their audio in my edit. There are also 24 seconds of video coverage that we wouldn't have had at all if not for clips that both Candygramme and AgtSpooky had saved from loss over all these years.
The video quality is lower in this panel than it was in Jensen's, and the next panel will probably be even worse.
What's Next?
The main J2 panel from this same convention will be next. It'll be about 32.5 minutes with one small gap near the end. J2wiki has a transcript of that one too to help us fill in the gap.
The J2 panel will have about 7 minutes of audio-only coverage. Some parts of that will be frustrating because they're not talking but they're clearly doing something funny that we can't see. I'd rather have audio than nothing, though! I also have 52 seconds of video coverage that we wouldn't have had otherwise thanks to some clips Candygramme had.
The J2 panel will probably take me 3 weeks to turn around. After that, I still plan to do Misha's panel from this convention. That will be my last LA 2009 video.
Updating Subtitles on Older Videos
If anyone's wondering, I'm also slowly working through updating my older videos to the new subtitle format that I've used on my last several videos -- the white text with colored initials.
I'm working backwards in chronological order, so I'm currently done with 2013, 2011, and part of 2010. I'm putting a very small amount of time into this each day so I can make steady progress while not letting it eat too much into my video editing time. I hope to have them all done by the end of July.
Until then, if you're watching my videos in chronological order, you'll see the format bouncing back and forth a little bit until you catch up to the year I'm on. Sorry!
Before/After Comparison Photos
The source in these screen shots was used for about 7.5 minutes of the video. That was the most footage I used from any single video source, but I used several others in much smaller lengths. My full credits are in my video description as always.
If you're unfamiliar with this project...
Check out the pinned post on my blog. It has more details about what I'm doing. I also keep it updated with links to all my videos and a note about which panel I'm currently working on.
Video Clips from the J2 VIP Panel at Purgatory 10 on May 23, 2026
These are all on TikTok. I'm going to link them rather embedding them since there are so many. Also, the fact that I even saw these is thanks to this post on X who drew attention to them.
