So, as often happens, I got in a mood to read a certain genre. I'm currently looking for long J2 or Wincest physical disability fics, preferably that deals with navigating a relationship while dealing with a disability. My Kindle has a whole collection dedicated to disability fics, but they're not hitting my buttons at the moment. I re-read the Battlements verse and the Twists and Turns verse, which is what sent me on this search.
So! Rec me your favorite disability fics! Fill my Kindle with goodness :D
- Jensen/Jared or Dean/Sam pairing
- No preference who is disabled (it just happened that the last two I read were Disabled!Jensen)
- No preference on disability (blind, deaf, paralyzed, etc.)
- Longer the better...something I can really sink my teeth into
- Focus on the disability and how it affects the relationship would be nice
So! Rec me your favorite disability fics! Fill my Kindle with goodness :D

Summary: It’s 2018 and the human race is almost extinct, wiped out by a mutant threat not even the angels saw coming. Sam and Dean live on a military compound, one of the few remaining human communities still fighting for survival. Dean is one of the military leaders, dedicated to wasting as many of the mutants he can, while Sam, permanently injured and confined to the base, is desperately searching for the answer that will save what’s left of humanity, and finally bring both boys the peace they crave.
And this one was sensational - it's J2. Although severe PTSD is the major factor, Jared also has a permanent physical disability. It's a wonderful and incredibly insightful read into what it's like to love someone when you are whole and healthy but your partner isn't.

Summary: After three tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan, Jared has come home to Texas, working a steady job as a security guard and trying to patch himself back together. His dreams are less than kind, but he copes for the sake of those who never made it back. Jared's not expecting to meet someone like Jensen Ackles - a Dallas businessman with confidence and charisma in spades. They connect over coffee breaks and high-spirited basketball games with Jared's vet buddies, and what begins as friendship quickly deepens into a defining romance. Although Jared's willing to share his physical scars with Jensen, the burden of hiding his emotional wounds weighs heavily on both of them. As Jensen scrambles to put a name to his boyfriend's symptoms, Jared struggles each and every day, and neither of them sees the storm on the horizon until it's too late.
I have links over at My Delicious (http://previous.delicious.com/reggie11) which could fit the bill as well. Everything is pretty well tagged and there are stories with one of the boys being blind, mute, mentally disabled, in a wheelchair etc. I'm building on it every day by going back and adding lots of great stuff that I've read. You may find something of interest there.
