Wow. Aka, insta-rec
Jun. 18th, 2009 01:08 amI don't even think this is a bigbang story, but it is epic in both scope and length: ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-syndicated.gif)
leonidaslion's The Light of Munin. (Sam/Dean) This author is known for dark themes, and they are here aplenty--graphic torture, noncon, more graphic torture, character death (not Sam or Dean), and more noncon and graphic torture. If you can stand to read that, though, this is an amazing story set in a post-apocalyptic landscape, where Sam and Dean graphically experience the consequences of unleashing hell on earth. The worldbuilding in this is incredible; it's set thousands of years after Lucifer's rise, and the world has been completely transformed. There are basically no humans left alive, and the world is ruled by demons and toxic monsters. There is a whole separate demonic language and everything (complete with glossary).
And when fate finally has Sam and Dean stumble across each other again, they don't remember their pasts and they can't even communicate. Even without the memory of each other, they are ineluctably drawn together, but it is a real question as to whether they will simply end up destroying each other, or if any kind of happiness is possible now.
