Supernatural x Lesbian!Reader Oneshots

I always see good literature that i love the plot but every not straight female character in the oneshot is gay and the reader is bi. I personally do not swing that way, so here i am writing scattered oneshots. I'll probably end up writing a whole adventure of a lesbian reader and her trip with the Boys as well TFW. Also it's either going to be no pairing, dating with the female characters, or casual mentions of the character dating a female person or female character.

I Don't Want This (OCD edition)

TW: HIGHLY TRIGGERS INTRUSIVE THOUGHTSI felt frustrated, having to dig through social media and various websites to try and grasp some form of literature that would give me closure, or even a feeling of comfort in the fact someone else in this world has experienced the same as I. I'm tired of the fact that if I share my experiences in real life someone might misunderstand, or only see that as who I am. Of course, someone reading this whom hasn't experienced mental illness might misunderstand, but I also hope it urges you to take the time to step back and realize how complex minds really are. It isn't what it seems, unless you mean torture of the human mind. Thanks for stumbling upon this piece of work of mine. I hope to write out whatever feelings or daily instances related to some of my struggles in daily life, as well as some of my darkest horrors..Based on a true story. Entries, or rather short descriptions of the anonymous writings of an individual experiencing various mental illnesses. Main focus is Obsessive Compulsive disorder. *Title art is not mine and came from a Pinterest google image I found*TW: Sexual obsession, intrusive thoughts, infectious obsession, Superstitious obsession, pedofilia obsession, graphic images described. Mentions: Sexual assault, depression, anxiety, lgbtq+
