Title: Bird of Paradise Author: trinityofone Artist: aesc Pairing: Dean/Castiel Rating: R Word Count: ~34,000 Spoilers: Vague allusions to both works, but no real spoilers Warnings: Violence, canon character deaths Summary: When Sam Campbell is chosen as a tribute for the Games—an annual fight to the death between twenty-four of New Eden's unlucky children—his older brother Dean volunteers to take his place. Dean fully expects to die so that Sam can live, but once he enters the arena, Dean discovers that what's at stake in the Games is far more complicated than simple life and death, and nothing and no one is what they seem. (An AU based on Suzanne Collins' The Hunger Games.)
Notes: I am indebted, first and foremost, to Suzanne Collins, whose wonderful young adult series inspired this story. fishandcustard listened very patiently while I ironed out early ideas for this adaptation, and bribed me with macarons; bauble worked clean-up shift and helped fix many of the story's lingering problems. siriaeve knows she is always my first and best soundingboard. And the amazing aesc—artist, writer, and jumpin' Jupiter, road buddy extraordinaire—inspired me with her beautiful work and was invaluable in shaping the final product. Thank you all so much!

I know its a bit late in the years, you may not even check in here anymore, but I totally love this story. I went to AO3 to save it and you hadn't posted it there with some of your other SGA fics.…
Jon Stewart was hosting again, and he was funny and engaging (despite making the obvious crack about John’s hair winning an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor)
