Jared/Jensen:
♥ Find Me a Match by elless18
AU. Jared's brother sets him up on a blind date.
I love when siblings are involved and are all awesome. Adorable!
♥ Step Out Of The Fire by truelyesoteric
Step Into The Light is the beginning, this is the end. The war has been fought, the spoils come slowly.
If you haven't read the first one, WHY NOT?! Such a brilliant sequel. Pain and schmoop all rolled into one.
♥ No Trespassing by fromcainwthlove
A dare leads the Js to hire someone for a threesome, but when the time comes, one or both is way more possessive than they realized.
Oh dear god, possessive fic for the epic WIN.
♥ A Day in the Life of a Sidekick by the_milky_way
And Jared thinks he really should be used to situations like this by now. Working with, and sometimes for, one Dr. Jensen Ackles warrants a lot of strange and sometimes ridiculous situations, especially working in their field. Treasure hunting is special after all, and it tends to attract the strangest type of guys.
A J2 version of 'National Treasure' which is one of my favorites! Wonderful retelling :D
♥ Cash or Check? by kelleigh
Jared has never thought about renting an escort, but when his new boss shows a bit too much interest, he decides he'll need a "boyfriend" for the company Halloween party.
Hot, adorable, and all sorts of awesome!
♥ this love is no accident by __tiana__
AU. Jensen hates mornings, loves coffee, and thought he knew how he felt about Jared right up until he overheard Jared on the phone.
I love that Ti+J2+Coffee=Epic Fic. Misunderstandings and jealousy and awesomeness.
♥ Whatever the Question Is by hunters_retreat
Jared and Jensen have never gotten along.  They've never made a secret about it, but when their foster parents are lost on a mission and the boys are their only hope, can they put aside their feelings?   Or will the Minion add Jared and Jensen to his list of Supers under his belt?
Fighting turned into love. One of my favorite types of fic :D
♥ The Roar on the Other Side of Silence by scintilla10
Jared and Jensen are roommates in a high school boarding school (no younger than 15). They have to be quiet when they have sex so their other roommates don't wake up.
Just as hot as it sounds.
♥ absence from those we love by _mournthewicked
Jensen Ackles led a great life. It just wasn’t the one he planned on. Now he’s newly single, stuck at a job he hates, and sharing an apartment with his lovably psychotic best friend. When he’s given the chance to go back and do it all over again, he leaps at it. Only he soon comes to realize that no matter what’s in front of him, it’s impossible to leave the past behind. Considering what he’d be giving up, he might not even want to.
A J2 fic of 17 Again and absolutely brilliantly done! The angst, the schmoop, the hotness, all of it was amazing.
♥ Java Jive by glassyskies
J2 college AU. Jensen is not a morning person and Jared works inhuman hours in the campus coffee shop. A story of sleep deprivation, caffeine, pyjamas and intensely annoying roommates. Oh, and falling in epic gay love.  
As you can tell, I love me some coffee fics :D
♥ You Make Me Lose My Buttons by ms_soma
Jared and Jensen despise one another but get stuck sharing a room on a school trip (band, choir, club, or sports related) and end up falling for one another.
I love the little twists and turns and how, like I said above, fighting to kissing is one of my favorites!
♥ Tonight, Honey, I Have a Headache by tuptoesmut
Jensen has a headache. Jared has the cure.
A very sensual fic
♥ Not the Gumdrop Buttons by cherie_morte
AU: Jared is a gingerbread cookie, Jensen is the chef who loves him to life, and somehow things just get weirder from there.
Okay so it's crack, but like the GOOD type of crack that reads kinda like real fic. IDK how to explain except that it's FUN. (The art is awesome too!)
♥ People-Who-Can't-Stand-Each-Other With Benefits by mistyzeo
Jared's the only sophomore on the Varsity soccer team, so he thinks he's a little better than dirt, but Jensen Ackles might not agree. But that's okay, because Jensen Ackles is a first-class douchebag.
SO HOT OMG.
♥ Watch the World Change by locknkey
Best boyhood friends, Jared and Jensen are divided by real life circumstances. When life has no end in sight, happy endings can be a long time coming.
I LOVED the style of writing here. A brilliant way to write Tuck, Everlasting.
♥ Along the Road to Anywhere by cherie_morte
There’s an old man in east Texas named Jared Padalecki. Every night, he tells the story of his life to 100 or so strangers. It’s not true, never the same story twice, though there are parts that stay the same, give or take a few embellishments. That doesn’t matter much when he’s up there talking. He’ll make you believe. Jensen sits in the audience, front row, and waits for the show to begin.
I bawled. Like messy snot everywhere. This fic was GORGEOUS in every sense of the word. Beautiful, schmoopy, and epic.
♥ Wonderland by munibunny
Jared is a temperamental artist. Jensen is the agent sent to deal with setting up his next show at the hottest gallery in New York.
HOT.
♥ At Home in the World by beckaandzac
Jared's life is changing too fast. He's heading off to college, and his parents are selling the house he's always lived in. One night in the city with charming bartender Jensen gives him some new perspective.
A very sweet story
♥ If We Shadows by transfixeddream
AU. For Jensen, life isn't difficult - his biggest concern is not flunking Trigonometry and getting into a decent college. And then Jared has to go and complicate things.
Another favorite type of fic of mine, going from bff's to more.
♥ Until You're Resting Here With Me by nyxocity
Accidentally trapped traveling through time through a project of his own design, Dr. Jensen Ackles finally finds himself twelve years in the past, in his own body, face to face with Jared Padalecki. His memory shot through with holes from time traveling, Jensen doesn't remember exactly what happened between them in the past, but he knows how he feels about Jared, and he knows things ended badly. Given a chance to do it right this time, can he change history—or does destiny have bigger plans?
Heartwrenchingly beautiful, that describes this perfectly. You're gonna be wiping away some tears, I know it.
♥ Falling Feels Like Flying (In A Vee) by qblackheart
The ragtag Riverside Ducks, the butt of every joke in the Greater Toronto Peewee Hockey League, couldn’t win a game to save their lives. As rambunctious on the ice as they are off it, this team of misfits gets lucky when their intrepid new coach turns out to be just as plucky as they are, and all his eccentric training tactics start to turn the team around. But just as the suddenly mighty Ducks are inching closer to the play-offs and that all-important championship trophy, hockey is surprisingly the last thing on anyone's mind: Jensen Ackles gets an unwelcome blast from the past; Jared Padalecki gets the second chance he's been waiting an entire lifetime for; and on the sidelines, a flock of meddling Duck-lings learn what it means to fly in a vee. And as Jensen and Jared soon find out, sometimes falling in love feels a lot like flying.
I LOVED 'The Mighty Ducks' so this was the perfect J2 version of it!
♥ Shifting Reality by sweet_lyri
Trackers Jared and Jensen move in the same Tracking circles, yet they've never met, nor are they aware of each other. A chance meeting in a bar, a night of passion, and running guns first into each other on a Track changes that quickly. But that's not all their encounter leaves them with. Suddenly, Jared and Jensen find themselves in the middle of a war with the shapeshifters, and Jensen comes to realize that Jared has a little bit more than a passing connection to his make-shift family. Can the two of them get past Jared's guilt and the shifter war to figure out if what they have is anything worth shifting their reality for?
A J2 fic with Supernatural tendencies with the boys as hunter. Pretty cool story
♥ Deep Thoughts and Pancakes by raeschae
Jensen just wants to get to work on time, but Jared's so philosophical and half-naked in the mornings. Jensen's life is hard.
Ngl, this fic is what got me through my root canals.
♥ At First Sight by cleflink
Once upon a time, a stable boy loved a prince who'd never seen him. Who also happened to be his best friend.
Oh man, such a sweet story. Perfect schmoop_bingo fic :D
♥ One Feeling at a Time by kelleigh
Jared was never supposed to grow up. He was also never supposed to come back. A story about a love that endures across time and distance.
SO much depth in this beautiful fic.
♥ The Solution to a Temporary Problem by toxica939
Jared gets out on a Wednesday. He has a lot of making up to do and a life he's forgotten how to live.
There are mentions of a suicide, but this is the story of overcoming that and being truly happy.
♥ Couch Commander by poor_choices
High school AU! Jensen and Jared watch TV and bicker about how Jared's shows are too gay. Jensen tries to ignore his teen angst.
These boys are AWESOME.
♥ Impossible Things Before Breakfast by tidbit
In which Jensen is a ninja when it comes to baked goods and Jared magically appears in his kitchen in Wonderland.
Another kind of heartbreaking fic. But in the best possible way!
♥ Higher Learning by riyku
It's final exams week, and Jared thinks that Jensen just needs to find a way to unwind.
College AUs are my faves and she wrote this one brilliantly!
♥ Twitterpated by aggybird
Jensen doesn't believe in falling in love and getting all twitterpated, especially with the guy he's hated since they were kids.
This is such a cute fic!
♥ raining on sunday by gatorgrrrl
Jensen's awake, Jared's asleep. Then they're both awake. (Or, Jared looks really hot against white sheets and Jensen just can't help himself.)
She writes this with such amazing description that you feel pure love emanating. Even through the hot sex ;)
♥ Just Drive by raeschae
Jared has a plan, albeit a vague one, and Jensen is just along for the ride. (with one blink-and-you'll-miss-it spoiler for 5.22 and without a beta due to time)
A schmoopy wonderful fic!
♥ Sleepless in Texas by transfixeddream
AU. Jared has insomnia; Jensen doesn't.
Snuggling ftw! ;) (Be sure to check out the awesome art by dephigravity!)
♥ I, Me, Mine by timehasa_way
Jensen wants to be his own person again. Jared kind of prevents that.
SO CUTE.
♥ The French Correction by cherie_morte
6x15 – The French Mistake!Verse AU: Not so long ago, Jared and Jensen were in love. This is how they fell apart. This is how they came back together.
I love the change in flashbacks and I love rekindling romance stories!
♥ Excuse Me, Cabbie, but Is This Your Femur? by vorpalblades
A warlock and an incubus walk into a bar. I don’t remember the rest of the joke, but it ends with them falling in love.
J2 fic of Halloweentown, which was a guilty pleasure of mine. What's not to love?
♥ Byproduct of an Accidental Coupling by truelyesoteric
Saying that Chad was the most disastrous Cupid in the history of the world wasn't some kind of hyperbole or fancy figurative speech.
Where you kind of fall in love with Chad haha
♥ With Your Heartbeat (Next to Mine) by mistyzeo
Wedding past and honeymoon over, Jared suggests something new. For him.
HOT plus sexy plus adorable plus schmooptastic!
♥ In Vitro by insane_songbird
Jensen really sucks at this whole flirting thing. Good thing one person doesn’t seem to mind.
I LOVE speed dating fics. So cute!
♥ That's just the way it is by the_milky_way
It's Jensen's birthday and his crazy grandmother from Texas is visiting. Which means Jensen and Jared have to hide fact that they are a couple.
Never underestimate Texans ;)
♥ Dinner Plans (or 5 Jobs Jared and Jensen Never Had) by dodger_sister
Five ways it could have gone. All of them were awesome.
♥ We've Got Spirit by obstinatrix
Jared's on the basketball team. Jensen's cheer captain. Between them, they've got a whole load of spirit.
Hot, sweet, and SO MUCH GUH.

♡ But It Never Gets Dull by taintedlove (Sandy/Danneel)
Sandy McCoy first met Danneel Harris at her callback for the role of Samantha Winchester in the new HBO thriller Supernatural. She had been hoping for a job, but had no idea she would be getting a best friend and roommate as well. Because that’s what they are, right? Friends?
Written kind of like J2, but with girls, and so much more! I can't really explain, but you're slashing two of my favorite girls :D
♡ Jared and the Package Deal by cherie_morte
College AU: Jared enjoyed the casual relationship he had going with Jensen just fine, but he couldn’t help wanting more. And then Danneel showed up, just to make things a little more complicated.
Unconvential relationships at its best. And the best kind of fairy tale ;)

Gen:
★ Old Faithful by zuben_eschamali
Missing scene from 6.12. It's their first chance to have a real conversation since Sam said yes almost two years ago…
Such a beautiful piece. A quiet intense conversation between the brothers.
★ In Time by lazy_daze
Sam knits. Dean mocks. Boys are brothers. ;)
★ Just as Easy as 123 by roque_clasique
Dean is functionally illiterate (preferably due to poor attendance at school and not because of a learning disability). Sam has always known but never did anything about it. Sometime after Stanford, he decides it's time for Dean to learn to read. Bonus if, rather than flying into denial and getting all defensive, Dean is just frustrated and ashamed but actually swallows his pride and puts some effort into learning because he's always wanted to. Cue guilty!Sam, because he waited so damn long to help his brother. Double triple bonus points if, at some point, Sam reflects on Dean's incredibly poor handwriting and spelling.
BRILLIANT.
