[spncanonbigbang]

We’re excited to start working on the seventh consecutive round of SPN Canon Big Bang. However, before we do, we’d like to make sure that you’re all excited as well!

In the last few years, we noticed our participant numbers waning, which is understandable: our beloved show has been gone for over two years now.

For that reason, before we dive right in and start popping the confetti cannons, we’re asking you to RVSP to our invitation. Please, fill out this survey to let us know if you’re interested in participating in Supernatural Canon Big Bang 2023. The interest check will be open until February 26th.

Note that this form is not a sign-up form, so if we open this round of spncbb, you will still have to sign up through an appropriate form we’ll provide then to participate.

This round of SPNCBB will most likely run March-November, like it did last year. For estimated dates you can see our last year’s schedule here.

New around here? Find all the details about SPN Canon Big Bang on our tumblr (note: rules and schedule will undergo revision for this year’s round)

Questions? Send them to our ask box or via email at [email protected]

Keep an eye on our tumblr or twitter for the official announcement regarding the round.

Not to be dramatic, but SPNCBB’s fate is in your hands! ;)

We’re looking forward to hearing from you all!

Title: Cursed by the Shadow King Author: AvalonSilver Artist: Klayr de Gall

Genre: Angst, Mystery Pairing(s): Mostly Gen, but with Adam/Michael, Sam/Castiel Rating: Teen and Up Audiences Wordcount: ~14.5K

Warnings:  Reference to incest for non-spn characters, descriptions of illness

Summary: Following Dean’s death, Sam’s departure from the Bunker is delayed when a mystery falls into his lap. 

Castiel visits one day carrying an unconscious and ailing Adam. The last Sam heard, Adam had happily reunited with Michael following Jack’s intervention. 

But now, Adam has only a few hours left to live – plagued as he is by a sorcerer’s curse. And Michael is back in The Empty.

With Jack off-world and out of reach, Sam must confront the sorcerer – a man from another world – who cursed his half-brother. Unfortunately, this otherworlder is also the only one capable of saving Adam.

When Tomorrow Comes By: Trenchcoat_Paradigm

Rating: E

Pairing: Dean Winchester / Castiel (mentions of Sam Winchester / Eileen Leahy)

Summary: 

“There’s something you don’t know… I made a deal with the Empty.” 

And there, in the grey hellish landscape, the portal flickering just beside them with seconds left on the timer he realized… they were already too late. 

—–

When hunting for the Leviathan blossom, Castiel gets taken. Tired, desperate and wanting to tell him all the things left unsaid before it’s too late, Dean prays to him. And all because of that simple prayer, the ending that Chuck had always planned was rewritten.

Alone, running himself ragged fueled solely by caffeine, whisky, and that trademark Winchester determination, he will find a way to stop Chuck and to save Cas. However, this was not the blaze of glory he always envisioned going out in, but he always knew, deep down, he would go out swinging to save a loved one.

Those bright penetrating tear-soaked eyes are the last thing he sees before his vision is marred, the desperate plea of his name dampened by the black ooze filling his eardrums as the essence of the Empty wraps around him and pulls him from existence into the dark.

With a fallen angel purged of happiness, a brother in mourning and a Nephilim-shaped timebomb the only ones left to Carry On… What happens when tomorrow comes?

Summary: The year is 2010, she was buried without her gun, and the world is a whole lot smaller than Bela remembers.

When she stumbles headlong into Dean Winchester — suspicious, angry, grief-stricken — she figures it must be fate, or luck, or kismet. Because there’s something out there in the dark, something she’s just starting to piece together.

There’s something hunting Bela Talbot.

Excerpt:

“Just – stop!” Bela yells, as Dean pounds his way out the house and down the front steps, shaking out with a rage he can’t quite explain. He can hear Bela rushing forward behind him. “Dean!” she yells. “Dean! I have a business proposition for you.”

He boils over and whirls around. “What do you think I am!” he says, throwing his hands out. “I have nothing I want to give you, you absolute –“

“I need your help,” Bela interrupts. She’s standing on the threshold, pressed into the doorframe and looking down at him. She sounds exactly as angry as he feels, but she doesn’t sound like she’s lying. “Something’s hunting me.”

If Dean could just walk away right now, before it gets worse, before she can say anything more – if Dean could just walk away –

He storms back up the steps and pushes her into the empty foyer, slamming the screen shut behind them. “Something or someone?”

“Now, Dean,” she chides, narrowing her eyes. “That’s remarkably tone-deaf, you know, I’ve clients from all over the –“

“Bela, I swear on everything good if you don’t –“

“Thing,” she says flatly. “Thing, and it’s coming for me, and I need your help.”

“And why can’t you take care of this yourself, huh? The way you take care of your ‘business’?”

“Because I hear you’re the best,” she says. “And I won’t settle for anything less.”

Coming November 28th

Supernatural Canon Big Bang’s Back, Alright!

With a slight delay, we’re happy to announce that Author, Artist and Betas sign-ups are open!

What is Supernatural Canon Big Bang?

It’s an annual event in which everyone’s a VIP author or artist of Supernatural canon-based (non-AU) fan content crafted especially for this occasion.

The goal of the challenge is matching our fandom’s marvelous storytellers and visual creators in their quest to celebrate the universe, lore and characters we all know and love!

We welcome all kinds of canon-verse stories (compliant, divergent, future fic, fix-its and so on), of any ratings and ships!

Who is it for?

Supernatural fanfic writers and fanartists who love producing canon-based creations and re-experiencing, expanding or fixing our little show we all miss dearly.

Each author has to provide a fanfic taking place in the universe of The CW’s Supernatural. The minimum length of the fic depends on the chosen mini- or bigbang track (below).

As for the artists, in the process of claims, each will choose a fic to create art for. The required amount of pieces goes as follows:

Minibang - minimum 5,000 words; minimum 1 piece of art and a banner

Bigbang - minimum 15,000 words; minimum 2 pieces of art and a banner
