Parental Dean and Rock, Paper, Scissors

[ashenblack.livejournal.com]

So I just read 'The Art of Balance' after someone searched for it here a few days ago, and now I'm in the mood for other Dean raising Sammy fics.  Not so much with Dean just taking care of him, because I know there are tons of those out there, but actual Dean-is-Sam's-guardian type things.  Either Dean having custody, or him raising Sam after John leaves...   and are there any fics where Dean is the one who leaves for college at 18 but takes Sam with him?  (Cause there really, really should be.)

I'm also looking for a specific fic that I forgot to bookmark, in which Sam (being kind of slow) finally realises that Dean has been purposefully losing at rock, paper, scissors for years as a way of making sure Sam gets what he wants or doesn't do the more dangerous jobs without actually having to say anything.  FOUND - Link in comments.

Any help at all is appreciated!

The rock, paper, scissors story sounds like Brother's Only Choice (http://authoressnebula.livejournal.com/671766.html) by authoressnebula. It's part of her Raising a Big Brother (http://authoressnebula.livejournal.com/601881.html) verse all of which are awesome.

Wow, you're fast! That's actually not the one I was looking for, but the whole verse sounds really interesting, so I'll give it a read anyway. Thanks!

I think the second fic you're looking for is Running with Scissors (http://dreamlittleyo.livejournal.com/94809.html).
