Who needs a drawing tablet when you’re poor and have a crappy mouse…
Enjoy my beginner’s art! (My sister better fudging love me for this)
April 10th excerpt:
“Great,” Dean hissed. He wasted no time scooping Bowman up into his grasp as the explanation sank in. He held the sprite close to his chest, keeping him hidden under the jacket while he scanned their surroundings with paranoid eyes to make sure Bowman’s clumsy, worried entrance had gone unnoticed. None of them could afford him being spotted when everything else was already going wrong.
This is quite a concept! Poor Jacob would have such a rough time at first. It’s bad enough waking up so tiny, but to be immediately captured and treated so badly makes it worse. Last he knew, he was a person just like them, why don’t they see that?
And then he has the weird luck of being found by Sherlock, one of the most intense humans he could have ended up with. Poor kid would have a hard time explaining anything, let alone how he’s small or why. He just wants to be safe from cages. A nice setup in the kitchen would suit him well enough, considering everything would be weird for him. Everything is newly big; he wouldn’t even know how to climb down the counter at that point. The fellas would have to help him get around.
The amusing part is that with curse victims, their knacks don’t manifest right away. There’s no way Jacob would be able to overpower the Winchesters if they decided to stage a “rescue”.
These poor boys! Sherlock and John will be
sure to keep Jacob safe once he’s in their flat, even if Sherlock will have a
tendency to poke at him a little. Luckily John keeps it from going too far on
accident.
John will be so fret for the little
guy, making sure he’s not injured after all that trouble, and ensuring he feels
safe with them. He’ll promise that they’ll only watch out for them until they
can figure out a way to get him back to normal and send him off toward home.
I can definitely see a little alcove for
Jacob in the kitchen, up against the wall between two containers or boxes, with
enough fabric for him to sleep comfortably on and small amounts of food within
his reach in case he needs it and Sherlock and John aren’t within earshot.
Though, to be honest, they won’t leave him all by himself very often, worried
about him falling into the wrong hands and becoming a pet again.
It’ll take a lot of ninja skill for Sam and
Dean to try and sneak Jacob out of there unnoticed, if that is their plan.
The brothers are likely to wait until it’s dark and quiet. They need to check out what’s going on with this kid and make sure he’s okay. Jacob might find himself getting dragged into the walls, and if he’s only recently cursed, he won’t have strength to match them.
Of course, there’s a huge chance that John or Sherlock find someone trying to abduct their tiny patient, and there’s going to be a lot of questions and a huge possibility of grabs and/or trapping if Sherlock’s the one to find them. John can’t risk Jacob getting more injured in a tug-of-war with the ninja brothers living in the walls. And Dean can’t risk Jacob being treated like a pet by the tols, so they’ll get themselves into a pickle of misunderstanding.
AS USUAL.

April 9th excerpt:
A wood sprite’s eyes were nowhere near as good as a hawks, but Bowman’s bright green eyes were keen as they scanned the next section of the enormous, boxy archive. The many unfamiliar things he could see from his high perch threatened to overwhelm his vision.
He crouched low to avoid being seen, his every nerve on edge at the thought of a massive, unknown human looking up and catching sight of him. He trusted Dean, and he trusted Jacob, but no other giant had earned that trust so far.
Giant!Jacob would help with this but he’d be careful about it. Sherlock would probably get a lot of pokes in the side in the hopes that he’s ticklish.
Sherlock would definitely kick up a fuss about leaving the lounge. No matter how much time he spends in there, there’s always something he can still learn. He’d have absolutely no evens if they resorted to having Jacob shove him out, however carefully. Trying and failing to dodge, shove, squirm out of their way until he just throws in the towel and leaves, dragging John behind him.
They’ll be back.

April 8th excerpt:
“Well, hey, Dean, it looks like you’re ready for some light summer reading,” Jacob quipped while he appraised one of the thicker books, feeling strange that even in a library he had to speak up to have any hope of being heard. The landscape of books was almost cool from this angle, creating a labyrinth of immovable blocks that might as well stretch on forever.
Dean rolled his eyes at that, opening up one of the books for Sam to peruse. Jacob backed away cautiously, keeping himself out of the way. “At least I won’t have a pop quiz to worry about when I’m done.”
I’m sure Bobby will swing by from time to time to check up on allll his boys and give Sherlock and John a close look to make sure they’re behaving themselves. Rumsfeld won’t like having his Sam gone, so he’ll have to visit them and get to know these new tols. They need Rumsfeld approval to go close to his Weechesters!
I love the idea of Bobby and Rumsfeld meeting John and Sherlock, sizing up the people taking care of their boys. John would be respectful enough, honored to meet someone who knew Sam and Dean so well before the curse, and he’ll do his best to keep Sherlock out of trouble with Bobby.
One way or another, Sherlock will claim Rumsfeld. He’s a lowkey dog lover, and he and Rumsfeld are on the same page when it comes to protecting their smols.

Typo of the Day
True love – Trite lice
Their trite life would always keep them together.
April 7th excerpt:
With Sam and Jacob stowed away in one pocket, and Bowman kicking pointedly at him in the other, Dean climbed out of the Impala. No one would be able to tell from his casual swagger that not only did he have three miniature passengers hidden on his person, he also carried a small arsenal.
( Original post )
“I dunno. I guess with being small there’s never a shortage of food. You can have as much of your favorite as you want and hardly make a dent in it. Being big … It’s not very cold. With all the problems that come with it, at least there’s that.”
