More brothers united? (pls?)
We’re still working on this story a bit, but you can be sure that there will be plenty on the way!
“I kinda like games,” Oscar recalled shyly. “I used ta play a game with a button, where I’d, um,” he almost faltered as sheepishness settled in. Humans had plenty of options for much more interesting things. “I’d try to make it roll for as far as I could get it and then have to catch it before it fell over…” He shrugged at the end of his explanation and fidgeted on the hand.

Any HC for Brothers Discovered?
Headcanons or hot chocolate? XD Snow has hot cocoa on my brain.
I think, if I was to headcanon for Discovered (which is hard, because anything either of us headcanon can easily become actual canon), I would imagine that if Sam had a bad nightmare about being trapped in the cages again, he’d sneak off onto John’s pillow, near his safe human, and fall fast asleep.
And then Dean wakes up, panics when he can’t find Sam, and John ends up with two tiny kids sleeping on his pillow.
My hot cocoa for Discovered is that John finds a copy of the BFG at a used book store and totally reads it with kiddo Sam. Cute fluffy bonding moments are Necessary.
Heyo! I may have been the deleted anon (XD). My ask was basically just telling you this blog is awesome and I am astounded by the whole universe you have created here! Also a quick question. You’re story about Smol Stan (aol?), I wanted to know hen you will be posting it. Thank you for all your write!
Aww, thanks so much! It’s really been a ton of fun creating and building up the universe we have rolling over here.
Sorry about the mix up with the asks, it happens to the best of us.
We’re not sure quite when the story will be posting, we still have to edit the first one, and then we let everyone vote in the stories to keep things fresh!
Stan has certainly graduated from brief side character to full fledged main character in the stories, much like Jacob, so expect to see him cropping up often! He and Dean have some of the most entertaining parts together in BC, and Sherlock’s been a bit of pout at how the little red wolf snuck his way in.
You can find questions like this in our FAQ (mobile-friendly version), and be sure to send in anything that you still want clarified afterwards!
Direct from the FAQ:
When does (insert story) start posting?
We’re not sure when each story goes up, we only have a timeline for the days stuff will post. To prevent any stories from gaining favoritism over others, we started running a poll. During the last week or two of a story, there will be a poll with (2) to (6) options offered, and the winner will be the story that starts next!
Keep in mind that the stories that appear in the poll will be fully written/edited and beta’d by our wonderful beta readers, any stories that are incomplete in any fashion will not be included.
The poll is run through SurveyMonkey, and each person gets only (1) vote! Duplicate votes WILL BE REMOVED.
Btw I love him there have just been a lot of excerpts so I was curious how many chapters
Glad to hear! Truthfully, it’s been a very hard month for me, so I’ve been drawing out the excerpts since there’s not much happening otherwise. We have a bunch of in-progress stories with all the different characters, but nothing being written out at our normal speeds since there’s no time to write. I’m not sure if I should just post random excerpts from all the in progress stuff or see if any are getting longer than the others, so I just… buy time.
It’s a pretty cute story, not as full of spoilers as certain other stories. Jacob in Wonderland, I had over 40 chapters that anything from them would be considered a high level spoiler.
How long is that small Stan story anyway? We haven’t heard from anyone else in a while …
It’s not as long as it seems, there’s two stories so far in that series and the excerpts have posted one after the other from lald and aol. Probably about average for story length, shorter than a good amount of our stories.
What would happen if Full-size Jacob, Sam, and Dean all met Oscar at the same time?
Oscar ball.
That’s a lot of tall people to deal with all at once, and Oscar isn’t even very tall for a borrower/little/etc. He’d take one look at them and curl up as small as he can make himself. With three sets of eyes on him like that, from so high up, his poor little heart would be pounding.
Of course, it wouldn’t matter how stern the seasoned hunters might try to be about the potential danger. Once Oscar starts crying (and he would probably cry over this), Jacob will be his defender. Do not mess with him. Making such a little guy cry is illegal.
What would happen if kid Jacob found Oscar instead of Dean?
Oh my gosh. The two sweetest characters, as kiddos? It would be such a cute meeting. After Jacob calmed down enough to stop scaring the little guy, of course.
Jacob would probably pick Oscar up before anything else, which would definitely scare the bejeezus out of him. Oscar would have to curl up into a ball, and he would cry almost immediately, which would jar Jacob out of everything else. He’s a sweet kid and couldn’t bear to see a potential little friend crying, so Oscar would find himself in a hug with a kid younger than him trying to console him.
Once Jacob offers to share his snacks with Oscar, he’ll win him over. Food is the quickest way to Oscar’s heart.
I’m feeling a little concerned for Stan in the current excerpts. Not that I think the bros are gonna hurt him! But Dean is drunk, and I don’t know what Stan’s past experiences with drunk humans sums up to. Maybe he’s had none, in which case, great, but if the witch used to get drunk sometimes, I imagine that Stan has every reason to feel uneasy around a drunk human. At least Sam’s also there to make sure Dean doesn’t go overboard.
Good job picking up on that! And Stan, indeed, is not completely okay with having a drunk giant around. He’s at least Irish in his background, so drinking itself would come more naturally to him, but it’s not something he’s done as a borrower (very unlike his human counterpart in BC)…
Once the aftershocks subsided, Stan looked up to find Dean almost completely filling his vision, looking at him expectantly as the borrower realized he’d been asked a question.
“Oh, u-uh… I dunno, it was… on,” said Stan between heavy breaths. He wasn’t exactly afraid, more flummoxed than anything. He recognized the smell on Dean’s breath as the gusts wafted toward Stan’s seat. Once in a while the witch would come home in a particularly foul mood with similar smells radiating off him, and those nights were absolutely no fun for Stan; any little thing could set Nicholas off, and there was only one tiny person he could take it all out on.
Will there be Hotheaded sass from Dean in Brothers Discovered?
There will probably be plenty of hotheaded Dean sass in Brothers Discovered!
I can’t speak for most of the story… so far we’ve only got the first night finished, and the most we got was sleepy-not-completely-coherent Dean sass, but he and John… they try but they never quite hit it off the way Sam and John do. And then there’s Stan getting thrown in, and he’ll add some spice of his own to the mix.
sleepy-not-completely-coherent Dean sass:
“Shh!” Sam hissed, glancing around furtively. “There… there’s a giant close by! I can hear him!”
Rubbing his forehead, Dean winced. “Oh, that.”
“That?! ” Sam exclaimed, his voice briefly going up. With a gasp he covered his mouth with both hands, eyes bright with fear. “What do you mean, that? ” he asked, his voice muffled.
