Word Count: 23144
Notes: Thank you so much to everyone who helped with this story.
Summary: Adam is alive and out of the cage but things are wrong. He can't reach Michael, he's sick and when he falls asleep he's having dreams where he sees his dead mother. Men aren't supposed to bear children but Adam’s special, and Michael’s an archangel; only the baby is killing Adam slowly and there's nothing Sam and Dean can do but stand by and watch. Castiel and Dean are fighting, Sam thinks the child might be Lucifer’s, and somehow Gabriel has been resurrected to carry the glorious news. Adam just wishes Michael would answers his prayers.
Title: The Art of Almost
Rating: PG-13
Author: chernoalfa
Artist: sanadafaye
Beta: casness
Genre: Slash
Pairing(s) / Character(s): Adam Milligan/Sam Evans, Noah Puckerman, Kurt Hummel, Blaine Anderson, Quinn Fabray, Sam and Dean Winchester, brief mentions of Mercedes Jones, Rachel Berry, and Sugar Motta
Warnings: Language, brief mentions of gore, glee-related silliness, disability.
Word Count: 11,327
Notes: Crossover fic that takes place mostly in the Glee 'verse. I never thought to consider these two a pairing but a Tumblr roleplay I joined/am an admin for has helped me see that these two actually have a lot of potential together. Link to download the fanmix is here (.zip file).
Summary: Adam Milligan was saved from the ghouls just in the nick of time by his half brothers, Sam and Dean. In an attempt to give Adam the normal life John had wanted for him, the Winchesters relocate Adam to the smallish town of Lima, Ohio where he meets and befriends the members of McKinley's glee club. Oh the irony, considering Adam's traumatic experience with the ghouls has left him mute and unable to talk (or sing). But a select few members - including the club's starlet, the school delinquent, and one of the star football players - decide maybe there's a way to help Adam find his voice again.
Title: The Boy From District Three

Artist: inalasahl
Beta: casness
Genre: Slash
Pairing(s) / Character(s): Adam/Michael, Dean/Castiel, Jeffrey/Jeffrey's Demon, Sam, John, Kate, Meg, Alistair, Lucifer, Crowley, Gabriel, Kali
Warnings: Character Death, Violence, Implied Non-Con, Attempted Rape
Word Count: 25535
Notes: This is a Hunger Games inspired fic, but please don't feel you need to have read the Hunger Games to understand it. I've simply taken inspiration, not the story.
Summary: Every four years, the Capitol demands a Tribute from each District to fight in the Games: a televised pageant of bloodshed that is the Demons' favourite form of entertainment. Every child, male or female, aged fourteen to eighteen has the possibility of their name being drawn and being forced to compete in a fight to the death. The last time it was Adam’s brother, Dean, who was their Tribute, but he came back; he was a winner. Adam only has one reaping left before he'll be too old. Fate wouldn't be so cruel to choose from their family again, but the Demons would be.

When he meets Jake, a nineteen-year-old Best Buy employee and college student, he finds some hope and courage within himself to begin dating again. But the ghost of boyfriend past has him questioning his worth and jeopardizing his new relationship.

Beta: midnights_blues
Genre: AU, Gen
Pairing(s) / Character(s): Adam, Castiel, Sam, Lucifer, Michael
Warnings: Angst, Drama, Violence,
Word Count: 19 249
Notes: I'd like to thank my awesome artist sanadafaye who not only has infinite patience but also is capable of seeing more of my writing than me and, secondly, my lovely friend midnights_blues who survives my whining outside of LJ and is, as always, there to help when I need her most. Thank you to both!
Summary: After the End of the World Adam Milligan is left to pick up the pieces of Sam Winchester's decisions. As he struggles to survive living with Michael, Lucifer and the brother he has grown to despise for condemning him to this new special torture, he finds himself battling family issues older than Creation itself and searching for a way to make the situation he has found himself in work. And if he fails, there is more at stake than the death of the only friend he has made in this strange new world.

Genre: Slash
Pairing(s) / Character(s): Pre-Slash Adam/Michael, Sam/Gabriel. Established Dean/Castiel.

Word Count: 36,086

Title: Every Boy Should Have Two Things
Rating: PG-13
Author: ladyknightanka
Artist: rattyjol
Beta: nights_fang
Genre: AU, Gen, kidfic, family
Warnings: Mild language, some violence, vague spoilers for 5.16: Dark Side of the Moon and 4.19: Jump the Shark.
Word Count: ~15k
Notes: This fic is an AU of Sam's anecdote in Dark Side of the Moon, about running away to Six Flags as a kid. Instead of making it there, Sam ends up at the Milligans'. Thank you to my lovely artist and fellow mods. Also, to nights_fang for both betaing this, and giving me the original concept.
Summary: In retrospect, it's not really Six Flags, with its tacky rides, bad food and creepy mascots, that thirteen year old Sam wants so badly, enough to run away. It's normalcy, an apple-pie life. When he's deterred in Windom, Minnesota, and put into the custody of emergency room nurse Kate Milligan, he gets not only that, but a chance to experience having a mother and being a big brother to Kate's seven-year-old son, Adam.

Summary: Adam gets out of Hell with no memories of how it happened. He won't question it though. No use in questioning a good thing. Instead, he's going to go right back to trying to get his life on track and leading as normal a life as possible. Except, since for some reason, the Universe hates him, he ends up being haunted. By Michael.

Warnings: barely-legal, porn, pseudo-incest, stalking, violence
Word Count: 16,674
Notes: I want to thank _bluebells again for all the help she's given me both in beta'ing this and also providing the amazing art. But my thanks also goes out to bellacatbee who encouraged me to join in the first place, who gave me guidance and helped me when I'd written myself into corners. Without her help I would not have been able to finish this story.-
Summary: All Adam wanted was to be a normal teenager. Do normal things like date and throw some house parties and maybe have his friends around to watch marathons of Indiana Jones films. The only problem was that his best friend had a major crush on Adam's big brother, rendering any social situation they share totally awkward. Oh, and Adam's career as an internet porn starlet. Things weren't so bad, at least, until Michael stepped into his life and everything was thrown into chaos.

Will this be the doom Adam expects it to be? Will the bond even take? And, for the love of the gods, will anybody ever tell him why it's so vital that he begin submitting to the bond practically before he even shakes off the dust from travel?

Warnings: Age Difference (17 years), religious themes
Word Count: 8,120
Notes: Priest!Michael fic, family bonding, baseball, time skips. My muse kicked my ass with this one, less than NWFT but still. All mistakes and general crappiness are my own for this one.
Summary: Sixteen year old Adam Milligan-Winchester wasn't expecting to get the hots for the new priest at his church but Father Michael ends up being too much for Adam to ignore. Having a crush on your priest certainly makes life a bit difficult. Falling in love is even worse.

Warnings: Strong sexual content, blood, strong scenes of torture

Notes: I do not own any of these characters, I make no profit, I just play in the SPN universe. Well this was an interesting pair to write, but I loved every minute of it! Hope you enjoy this pairing as much as I did.
Summary: Adam is a vampire and his companion, Meg. Their relationship is inexplicable, but their bond is obvious. While Meg is obsessed with tracking down Crowley and those loyal to him, Adam follows her blindly. But when she goes missing he has no choice but to turn to his half-brothers to help him find her.
Title: A New Direction
Rating: R (For violence)
Author: theron09
Artist: mandraco
Beta: ishilde
Genre: Gen, Alternate Universe - Canon
Pairing(s) / Character(s): Adam Milligan, John Winchester, Dean Winchester, Sam Winchester
Warnings: Some violence (as in the Supernatural kind), swearing, an OC character death at the start (as in the way Supernatural kills people off at the start of each episode),
Word Count: 21, 534
Notes: Notes are at the end of the fic.
Summary: A Canon AU where Adam witnesses the murder of a college classmate and ends up being a murder suspect. When his Dad arrives on the scene, though, he finds out not everything is as it seems, that the killer is a demon out to target the Winchesters and, as part of the vendetta, Adam himself. With nowhere else to turn, Adam has no choice but to trust John, Sam and Dean to help him, even if it means leaving behind everything he knows for a life on the road.
Title: No World For Tomorrow 
Rating: R
Author: grlkat2
Artist: dollarformyname
Beta: crusaderangel (Angela - underpromiseoverdeliver.tumblr.com)
Genre: Slash, Alternate Universe - Canon
Pairing(s) / Character(s): Adam/Michael, Bela, Bobby, Castiel, Crowley, Dean, Lucifer, Rafael, Sam
Warnings: Semi-graphic torture, language, dark!Adam, hurt!Michael
Word Count: 11,249
Notes: Hell!fic that deviates from 6.19 with multiple character deaths. The way that time works in Hell is something that I played with for a bit so that the damage to Adam and Michael's psyche were more understandable. One earth month = 10 Hell years = 100 Cage years. This essentially makes the whole time from when they fell in the pit in 2010 until the start of season 6 to be almost two thousand years, roughly. They're just not happy campers in the Cage.
Summary: Adam’s been stuck in the Cage this whole time, barely given a thought by his brothers. When the self-proclaimed ‘King of Hell’ Crowley swings on by with an offer to get him out in exchange for ‘cooperation’, Adam figures the only way to go is up.

Warnings: language, one instance of voyeurism
Word Count: 9,804 words
Notes: The story begins in May 2012, but spoilers are only up to 7x10
Summary: Michael and Adam escaped from the cage to a world that was in urgent need of fixing. Dean and Sam were allegedly dead; Bobby Singer was certainly dead; Castiel was gone. Heaven is closed even to Michael and the leviathans are close to gaining control of everything. Michael drags Adam along on his quest to help the world survive.
Title: The Only Way is Up 
Rating: Teen +

Artist: chosenfire28
Beta: Alex (conversewearingdetective.tumblr.com)
Genre: Gen
Pairing(s) / Character(s): Adam Milligan, Bela Talbot
Warnings: Violence, gore, torture, insanity
Word Count: 5,804
Notes: Thanks to everybody who helped me get this done, including the lovely mods for being so supportive when repeated computer problems were throwing me off schedule and also to chosenfire28 for being epic and making the most amazing art despite not seeing a completed version of the fic until the very last moment. Also to Alex for being a fabulous beta, any mistakes are probably me ignoring good advice or insisting upon changing things about at the last minute.
Summary: Falling into hell was Adam's destiny, what happens next is up to him. The cage was never designed to hold humans. But Adam was never a hunter and his experience as an archangel meat-suit has left him in no condition to find an escape or beat the demons on their own turf. If Adam wants to escape he's going to need all of his strength and whatever help he can get.

I'm proud of myself and I'm proud of all my fellow Adam Bangers out there! This is a wonderful comm and a great first experience at a mini bang! Thank you! Now, of course I do not own any of the characters. This is all for fun and I make no profit. Enjoy!
Summary: Sam and Adam are inexplicably back from Hell but they do not have the problems you think they might have. Their problems are more steeped in their emotional troubles and without Dean they look for comfort in each other which only complicates their situation.
