It’s a great way to protect your entrances and exits, yet still make them wide enough to use! Plus I’m sure there’s plenty of ways you can put an ability like that to use…
What would your knack be? Let us know!
I’m not so sure I would have a very useful knack as I’m super clumsy and not very physical irl. Maybe I could have the knack of medusa eye contact like in the kagerou project! Sure it’d be great to stop a human in their tracks… until you need to run or are caught in their hands. Yikes!
Stopping a human in their tracks would be amazingly useful if you needed to get away from them! The only problem is if they’ve seen you, they might tell others about you. Better lay low once you get out of sight and hope the others call them crazy. Fun knack!

May 7th excerpt:
“A certain someone got himself snatched up,” Dean said smugly, grabbing a pile of boxers to stuff in. “Took him less time than I expected.”
“You know how Rumsfeld is,” Sam said. “He was probably following Logan around the entire time he was there.”
Archive of Our Own seems to be currently down for me… the chapter update there may have to wait a bit, but the other sites are running fine.
Looks like it might have started working… now hopefully it stays that way long enough for the update.

Contest Results!
Thanks to everyone for participating! All entrants will receive a special sneak peek at the special excerpts from last year, I will be in contact with the link, as a thanks for all the time you put into the contest. And now, for this year’s winners!
Grand Prize Winner
@torchmlp with I’m Not Letting You Go entered into the tumblr contest, and Sibling Rivalry entered into the deviantart contest!
Each of these entries was phenomenal, and I’m Not Letting You Go had me in tears, I’m pretty sure. I was a puddle during the story, and it nearly had me wanting to write something for it myself, I was so touched. Just an all-around great story, and Sam and Jacob getting into mischief is always a wonderful thing!
Tumblr Winners
Swapping around Sam and Dean’s size for a case definitely throws shenanigans in the way of them getting anything done, and this was a journey I had a lot of fun going on! Thanks for the entry!
The first time I’ve ever had the pleasure of getting a craft entry, Sam now has a bed of his own! (and Jacob has a crib, but he doesn’t want to talk about that) This was a great surprise to receive, and thanks so much for the entry! Smol Dean’s gonna be a little jealous, but he’s got his whiskey to drown his sorrows in.
Deviantart Winners
If an artwork ever captured the essence of BA, down to the fires that took Sam and Dean’s childhood and later family, this is it. I couldn’t stop staring at it the moment I got the notification! You did so good it broke my heart!
BA Reunited, by jetx43682
Another artwork that captures a favorite moment of mine that I only got to show in a small prompt! Sam and Dean reunited for the first time after the events in Taken, with Sam finally taking that first big step towards his big brother while fighting through some PTSD of his own that other humans caused.
Poll Winners
Last but not least, those entrants the poll chose for winners! Before the poll was calculated, all winners were removed (along with one entrant whose entry was withdrawn from the prizes by choice), leaving us with our poll winners!
Poor Sam gets hotboxed when he’s out of the room, and Dean dealing with a tiny high brother? An adventure from start to finish. I loved this story. And make sure to check out the rest of Helloootricksterr’s stories on archive, there’s always g/t fun to be had there with the Winchesters!
Fever, by Weeglyfeesh
A stressed out Dean taking care of his feverish tiny brother is a recipe for some amazing hurt and comfort, and this story did it amazingly! Thanks for participating!
Winners, I’ll be in contact for you to choose your prizes! And all participants will receive a look into the future of BA!
Determining your own knack is hard! I would want mine to probably be based off of my favorite super power: telepathy. I don’t know entirely how, but I would likely be sensitive to the thoughts of others around me.
It’s a very useful ability to have if you’re worried the human might have heard you. You’ll be able to ‘hear’ if they’re considering seeking you out or if they just wrote the sound off as just the house settling.
Also, if you get bored and are strong enough, you can always get into someone’s head and make them think they’re hearing voices. Get them to leave out a snack or two for you if you need some food for the week.

Hardest job ever is picking winners for the contest, omg.
May 6th excerpt:
“Yeah, he’s swearing up a storm,” Bobby kept going. “Got him in a jar to keep Rumsfeld off him. If I didn’t know any better, I’d say Rums was lookin’ at him like he was a doggie toy. Whatever Sam said to him, he got his point across good.”
