April 14th excerpt:

There was more than enough room for Jacob inside, but Sam took a few extra items out, leaving his journal along with the spare key for the panic room tucked inside the pages like a bookmark and a few other small supplies.

Jacob pursed his lips at the bag while he considered it. Sam was offering, but Jacob was fairly certain it’d be insisted upon, based on the conviction in his eyes. He couldn’t refuse; he was sore as hell and walking around did not sound very appealing. Every step for Sam or Bowman took three or four of Jacob’s. He had a lot of ground to cover just to get out from under the seat.

According to the timeline I was thinking of, Bowman would be about 20. Putting Jacob at 18 or 19. My characters are younger than the bros, and though Bowman doesn’t really care about age at all, it leads to a dynamic with Jacob looking up to the Winchesters (no matter what size everyone is).

April 13th excerpt: 

Jacob was treated to a brief glimpse of the way Bowman saw the world. With the small town arrayed around them and the painted horizon circling them, it almost didn’t matter that the ground was so far away. Jacob knew that if he had wings of his own, even that detail wouldn’t faze him. Bowman belonged in the air, his vibrant green wings glistening in the sunlight that fed him more energy to keep right on flying. His heartbeat continued in its relieved, elated rhythm.

April 12th excerpt:

Sam was holding his handcrafted knife in front of himself in a defensive position, legs bent in one of the stances Dean had taught him. If he had brighter clothing on, he would fit right in with the action figures they sold at the toy stores around the country, only he was far more realistic.

Dean’s voice went on overhead as Sam started to sweat. “This one we had custom made.”

I’m sure he’d be very intrigued! Bowman’s not much of a runner himself – the strength in his legs mainly comes from leaping into the air and then letting his wings take over.

However, there is the sun to factor in, here. Since he can photosynthesize, Bowman could stay in the air pretty much all day and hardly tire out. There’s a little magic in there, making sure the energy can sustain actual movement, but it works out well for wood sprites. He couldn’t fly for 24 hours, though, unless he followed the sun (tough to do when you’re so little).

So I decided to try @nightmares06 Brothers Apart contest.
Not entirely sure if i can finish by the deadline but even if I do miss it’ll be a fun thing to do.
So here’s the link of what I’ve gotten so far https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12432674/1/Witches-at-Ryder-s-Inn
It’s in the Brothers Apart AU where the Winchesters end up finding two other people like Sam, height wise, only for them to be witches.
Hope you enjoy, let me know what you think so
I can improve on my writing.
Thanks!

April 11th excerpt: 

Dean went on. “That’s one of our smallest toys. My brother just keeps it around because our dad gave it to him before he passed. I mean, when you hold it up to,” his hand reached into his pocket, “this, there’s really no comparison.”

His fingers looped firmly around Sam’s body. He could feel his little brother trembling even as he was withdrawn into the light. Regret hammered in Dean’s chest in an accusatory pattern. He knew from experience that a child finding him and treating him like a toy scared Sam more than almost anything else, and here they were, pretending he was one. At his size, he looked like a super-realistic action figure. At the moment, it was the only chance they had.

Once Sam was out of the pocket, he froze up. Every instinct in him was screaming at him to get away, get under cover and hide! One human had a hand wrapped around him, another was staring greedily at him like he was the world’s coolest toy.

April 4th excerpt:

Jacob offered a warm smile to the closest of the nestlings, still a few feet away from him. They perked up in surprise, as if they didn’t expect him to be able to see them wandering closer to him. Tiny wings, some of them still slightly curled at the edges, fluttered at their backs.

“Hi,” he greeted them, and the nestlings stumbled forward even more. Some that were on the opposite side of the stream set to work carefully hopping from stone to stone, avoiding the water. “Be careful over there,” Jacob warned them. He got a few sheepish grins in return and some approving nods from the parents who hung back to continue the washing.

“We’re always careful,” someone answered, and Jacob looked down to find that a nestling had reached him. He tensed up slightly, staring at the absolutely tiny child standing in the grass, well within reach of the arms he rested on his knees. “If someone fell in the stream, their wings would get so heavy!”

The last time they encountered a case like that in 1.08 – Bugs, they actually didn’t break the curse on the land, and a large ghost attack like that is much like a curse. They would have to find signs of the ancient burial ground to get it protected by the state (occasionally works), or find a way to put the spirits to rest if that didn’t pan out. Hoodoo is a better option than a salt and burn, so they’d need to find someone well-versed in the belief and willing to help.
