Oh, Sam! Don’t go in there!

I think he would be so surprised to see such big creatures afraid of him, all four inches of him in their cage. And those other littles will have to keep him away from any clowns because my god XD Giant clowns are not something for a wee Sammy. Dean is going to have a field day with this one if he remembers.

That would be so much food, for sure. So many people knocking over popcorn and spilling their drinks and candy, it’s like a field day for the smols and their mice, because of course they’ll have a group of mice living with them. It’s probably nice and warm to snuggle with the mice when it comes time to go to bed. Sam will love that.

Ah! We’ve never touched on what they really are, so we can’t say if they’re human or not, borrowers or not, or something in between. This question will have to wait for the future! The origin of the ‘littles’ will be revealed in a future Brothers Apart story.

I like this idea, so I’m going to add it to our list of future stories to write, and we can work on finding an AU to fit it into. It’s worth more than just a short little prompt, I’d say.

There was a story much like this submitted to the contest, if anyone wants to check it out, only there was only one little instead of a community:

A Little Haunting and Hunting

Mostly, they just take efforts to keep the bugs out of their own supplies. Cockroaches wouldn’t bother them much, but if the population of cockroaches grows too large, they’ll have to make efforts to reduce it so the humans don’t call pest control. Everyone would be at risk if that happened. Out in the wild, the small folk would just ignore the cockroaches and the cockroaches would ignore them in turn. To each their own.

Of course!

It might not be as popular a place to live due to the amount of humans that are in and out on a daily basis, but that is a trade-off for the sheer amount of food they’d be able to find. The kicker is with that many people around, there is no way to risk getting food during the day. All gathering trips would have to wait until no one was around.

Motels are a little easier because it’s less people around, but they also lose out on the amount of food available. It completely depends on the people who stay in the rooms.

Homes are the safest, but care has to be taken since the theft is easier to notice when it’s the same people around day after day.

February 19th excerpt:

Was that … a leather jacket?

The perplexed expression lingered on his face and he stood there, frozen, long after the small whatever-it-was had disappeared. He couldn’t even be sure he’d actually seen anything. He frowned critically at the toaster, before shrugging and heading up the stairs.

Well, nothing is impossible. I can promise you that this isn’t the last we see of the field littles and Walt, and of course it’s not the last we’ve seen of Bobby!

Though for Sam, Walt was disappointed that he showed no aptitude for tanning at all. On the other hand, wee little Sean is doing great at it.

We’re thrilled everyone is excited for the story! *bounces* A lot of hard, hard work has gone into it (and is still going into it as we edit it).

Innovations of the Burrow

The littles that live out in the fields behind Bobby’s home have many different innovations. Because there’s so many different littles that find their way there (mostly with Rumsfeld’s help when he finds them wandering), they have a larger skill set than in other areas.

The stream that runs by one of the back entrances is full of minnows, so the more adept men and women will spear them, or careful nets are created to net them with.
They keep a bed of coals lit at all times in their largest chamber. It provides a place to cook fish, bugs or small animals that they need to fend off along with a source of heat in the winter.
Grass is woven into baskets by the older littles, and they teach the younger children the same skill.
Berries are collected from the nearby area. From the berries they can create a variety of jams and wines, and vinegar from the wines that age.
They make their clothing out of a variety of fabrics and plant materials. They have never had a tanner like Walt come to the burrow, so that is one skill that is lacking. His boots, leather jackets, leather satchels and canteens that he makes (the canteens dreamed up in a conversation with @chewbaccaaah), are all more durable than the fabric and cloth shoes used by the burrow. To gather fabric, they need to range farther than normal, sometimes venturing to the other homes in the area (Bobby’s was avoided as of the events in Adventures at Bobby’s).
