Nope, this isn’t what will happen in the Mystery AU… but this exact thing will happen in Brothers Lost, and Jacob will have to deal with a snarky little guy he finds trying to snitch his pie. The guesses are getting closer, and a new preview was earned for Brothers Lost:


It was easier to see the miniature leather jacket and black tee. The tiny man even had denim jeans on and what looked like leather boots. Jacob glanced aside to the little duffel he had discarded. He wondered where the leather all came from.

The little guy looked like a little biker or something. Holy shit.

Jacob’s smile returned and he reached out with his free hand to brush at the hem of the jacket before finding one of the little arms and lightly pinching it between his finger and thumb. Jacob was amazed; those tiny fingers could practically press into the ridges of his fingerprints! One hand wasn’t enough to cover even his pinky fingertip.

“Holy shit,” Jacob echoed.

This was no hallucination. This was real. He had actually found a tiny little man in his motel room. A motel, of all places. How in the world had he even survived at a size like this?

“Dude, what are you, some kinda borrower or something?”

Dean tried to rip his arm from the grip of the thick fingers. “What are you, some kind of Godzilla or something?” he mimed back without missing a beat.


Dean managed to get Walt to make him his own leather jacket and a leather bag just like Sam… only his ended up shaped just like the bag he lost when he shrank, so he’s got a very little duffel bag! This story is under construction right this moment and we’re very excited for how it’s going!

In the TV series, Sam had Sully as an imaginary friend because he was alone. Dean was off hunting with John and he found himself a different support system. In Brothers Together, he has Dean around all the time, and in Brothers Apart, he went straight from having Dean around all the time to finding a new family. Sully helped guide him to figure out that he didn’t want to be a hunter as much as he thought, but that was never an issue in this series.

These are all really interesting guesses from the last few days (I’ve been overwhelmed with work or I’d have posted them sooner), but any guesses with just Sam and Dean won’t hit the mark. I’m going to add them to the list of guesses later on and if anyone is ever interested in playing around with the ideas let me know. I don’t mind seeing people play around in the BA worlds. Who knows, in the future I might drabble one or two myself.

A note from neonthewrite:

Seeing a lot of guesses come in for the mystery AU! You guys are really curious, aren’t ya?

I just wanted to throw in a reminder that every AU to Brothers Apart is a collaboration, meaning I, your CoAdmin, am involved in writing it.

Here’s a hint: I do not write Sam or Dean. That’s all up to nightmares06. You don’t need to guess which character I write, but only the premise of the AU, just like “Kid finds Sam” or “Sam meets other borrowers”. These guesses have a general idea that involves a character or characters that are not Sam and Dean Winchester.

That’s all from me!
