Author's Summary:
There are three things you should know about Sam right now: he's still crazy, he's one of the only survivors in a Leviathan-led zombie apocalypse, and, oh yeah, he's pregnant with an incest parasite-baby-thing. And no, this isn't a guess-which-part-is-a-lie game. When you spend your days being chased by the brain-hungry undead and your nights fighting with your stubborn brother about your new-found condition, you're forced to learn things about yourself. And maybe, with a pinch of luck, you might be led to a happy ending. But considering Sam's a Winchester, that road seems like a fat chance.
Review:
In a post-apocalyptic dystopia, the human race has been ravaged by Leviathans and zombies. In this verse only 'fertiles' are able to have children, and they can be of either sex. This is a Wincest fic, but not one where Sam and Dean are in true love; theirs is a purely sexual relationship, and when Sam discovers he is not only able to become pregnant, but also actually pregnant - with Dean's child - there's definitely no rejoicing. This is a tense, angsty, and at times darkly funny look at what society is like post-apocalypse. The author doesn't shy away from Sam's dark thoughts about his pregnancy, or the dangers faced by those who are able to reproduce when the human race is suffering from a population shortage.
Sam and Dean's relationship isn't the best in this fic, and as a fan of much more loving Sam/Dean stories it was sad to see them so emotionally distant. They really are just brothers having sex rather than in love with each other, and though I would normally prefer a more romantic relationship, this type of Wincest makes for an interesting and perhaps more realistic change. My only criticism would be the somewhat deus ex machina nature of the ending.
There is a sequel to this fic with a different tone, being focused instead on Sam and Dean's domestic lives. I don't think it lives up to its predecessor.
