If you have any questions for any of the AU’s or any of the characters, including the ones that belong to @neonthewrite or @borrowedtimeandspace, feel free to send in an ask!
AU’s include (click the link for the story/sneak peeks):
Brothers Apart || Sam was hit with a witch’s curse and found himself separated from his family and only four inches tall.
Brothers Consulted|| After being warned about the residents of 221B, Sam and Dean move in anyway and have a fateful encounter with Sherlock Holmes and John Watson.
Brothers Chosen || Stan gets shipped off and sold in America, and Sam and Dean don’t really expect to find him while they’re on a case…
Brothers Saved || Dean gets hit by the witch’s attack, and Sam saves him at the last second, leaving him with a big brother that fits in his pocket.
Brothers Discovered|| Two brothers escape their captors into the cold streets of London, only to get picked up by an oddly-familiar face…
Brothers Adopted || Sam takes in Jacob as an adopted brother after Jacob is cursed, and teaches him how to survive.
Brothers Divided || Sam is unable to free Jacob after Dean traps the teenager under a vase.
Brothers United|| By chance, Sam and Dean go to Knights Inn instead of Trails West, and find themselves pushed into a world they never dreamed existed within their own.
Brothers Unexpected || Kiddo Sam is caught and adopted by five year old Jake and his family while states away Dean catches Oscar in the Knights Inn.
Brothers Kept|| In a world where borrowers are pets, Sam and Dean were caught and conditioned to be companions. Dean’s long given up hope on leaving the store that has him for sale, but one day, a red-haired agent strolls in and picks him out of the crowd.
Brothers Grounded || Jacob Andris, after his adventures in the Wellwood, stays at a familiar motel and discovers two tiny brothers raiding his stuff.
Brothers Remembered || Dean was cursed as a kid, growing up as a borrower at Trail’s West. He helped another kid cursed just like him, and certainly never expected to see a familiar face staying in one of the rooms.
The AU Lounge|| Welcome to the AU lounge! A place of relaxation conceived and helped designed by all the readers and visitors to the world of Brothers Apart! Stay awhile, kick up your boots, and have some pie!
Suggestions are always welcome, and inspiration comes from all sources! Just look at how far the AU lounge has come since inception!
We are creating our own little multiverse over here!
The BA bros would be amaze to meet Oscar! He’s done so much, surviving on his own that long!
They would certainly offer, since they’re helping so many others relocate at the time. Oscar wouldn’t have to live on his own, and he’d have more of a support system than he does at his current place, where the others live so far apart.
Plus, Sam always can drop in on their friend and make sure he’s doing okay in his new home.
The cutest and dorkiest interactions ever would happen is what. You have the biggest teddy and the tiniest mouse, trying to figure each other out. Honestly, once Jacob figures out how scary he is to such a little guy, he’s completely flop. He’d work so hard to try to get some trust, even just have Oscar talk to him for a while.
From there, he’s got a task of getting Oscar to actually leave the only place he’s ever known. I’m not sure if he would be able to do it in just one visit, but the best selling point he has is the cooking back home. All that warm, hearty food that Jacob’s mom makes would do wonders for little Oscar’s health!
There is actually the beginnings of an AU like this in the works already, with the first story posted over on my writing blog: here
Before Dean lost his resolve, he stuck his hand out like he’d been shown as a kid to offer the dog his scent, his fingers stretched out as far as they could go in an attempt to make his hand as big as possible. He didn’t know if it was going to make a difference considering his entire body was smaller than a normal person’s hand, but maybe she’d understand and recognize the gesture and consider him like any other human, instead of a treat or toy.
“H-hey girl,” Dean stuttered out. “We’re all friends here, right?”
Just try not to imply that you’re replacing neon’s characters in the stories, she’s sensitive about that subject, no matter how many times we tell her she’s here to stay.
The forest you have sounds like an interesting place! I’d be interested in seeing what you came up with from that story idea!
Mostly Jacob will have to put up with being on the other end of Sherlock’s pocket magnifier. He’s so much littler than all the others, even Oscar! He can probably narrow down a few possibilities of his ordeals if there are signs of poor Jake’s wear and tear over the course of JIW, and he’ll be interested to know just how he got so very smol. Jake’s in for gentle pokes and a lot of examining and zero personal space until Sherlock gets shooed away from him.
At this point, extra tiny Jacob is more than Done over the fact that he’s tiny again, after all the crap he went through before he was graciously allowed to be tol again. If not for a certain Sam likely scooping him up into a satchel, he’d most likely just weather Sherlock’s attention with the most exhausted, exasperated silence.
Which mmmeeeaaannnsss that when the canon Brothers from Bigfoots A Hoax story enter the Lounge, they will recognize Gabriel, and might react a bit aggressively…? How is the whole thing gonna sort out? (part 2… I need more room for my messages – _- lol)
Hmm, I’m not completely sure yet how characters will react to dear ole Gabe when the ones that recognize him in the Lounge arrive (such as Brothers Found getting back from the hunt where he kicked around Jacob like a punching bag, whoops). I’m sure the Trickster has a few tricks up his sleeves to keep them all under control! This is supposed to be RELAXING, dagnabbit.
For a moment while Dean talked, Nate nearly froze halfway through his descent down the stairs. This was the most Dean had spoken around him, only a few sentences but enough for Nathan to notice something important.
I don’t quite have anything with a harvest mouse yet lined up for Sam, but he does make a few friends with some house mice while he’s helping Dean on a case…
There’s no plans currently to bring Barry, Xander and Garen over to London, but who knows? We might see any characters from BA in BC if the story calls for it!
