He might not play out in the snow for hours on end, but there’s no reason he’d be unable to go out and enjoy it. After all, even small animals live out in the cold. Sam could even make himself a little igloo if he needed to find shelter for a night, with snow being a natural insulator. An hour or two out with big brother and he might be cold, but he probably wouldn’t even notice most of the time. The same way we don’t notice when we’re having fun how cold we are.
You can find the story to this prompt here.
In the winter months, Sam will stick a lot closer to Dean than normal. His jacket’s very thin compared to anything Dean owns, so it doesn’t keep him warm. Not to mention, being so small, he doesn’t hold much body heat. So it’s a lot of time spent in the chest pocket. The side pockets don’t do any good keeping him warm unless Dean has his hands in them, and then it can be claustrophobic because Dean takes up all the room.
This doesn’t stop Sam from having fun in the snow. He always wanted to build his own snowman. He just has to watch out if he throws any snowballs at Dean. Dean might throw his own back. (And then have to dig Sam out from under all the snow)
Plus, sledding is awesome when you’re four inches tall. A pile of snow half Dean’s size makes a huge hill, and if he can convince Dean to help, he doesn’t have to trudge all the way back up.
For the type of dog Rumsfeld is, I went by what the Supernatural Wiki dubbed him because I am no expert on dogs and he was only on screen for a few seconds. So the Rumsfeld in my story is a Rottweiler.

Recent update: Added Adventures at Bobby’s.
Sam was hit with a witch’s curse when he was 10 and Dean was 14. Unable to find him or his attacker anywhere when the dust settled, John and Dean Winchester were eventually forced to give him up for dead. Unbeknownst to them, Sam was saved from the witch and adopted into a new family, and they’ve trained him to take care of himself as best he can in the world, and protected him from the witch’s gaze all these years. And now…

What happens when you have Winchesters in the Wellwood? A bad day for Bowman Leafwing, as an encounter with a certain hunter and his brother goes awry, and zombie wolves move into the forest.
He totally would, too. He’s gotta make sure his girl-awkward ‘little’ brother can get the ladies. He’ll just need to make sure he’s out of sight when he’s doing it!
I don’t know how I’d write it, honestly. Dean would dive straight for Sam, that’s all I know for sure. There’s no way Sam’s landing on the ground with Dean around. It’s a good idea for baddies if they can get their mitts on Sam.
Walt would accept Sam just the same. He understands that Sam doesn’t belong at their size, no matter how long it’s been, and he also knows that Sam would never do anything to hurt them. He might get stiff on occasion, but he’d never turn Sam away.
Bree would be better with Sam than she is with Dean. She knows him, as well as she knows anyone, really.
Only a few weeks from now, it’s been a year since Brothers Apart officially started posting! (Original post, first chapter – Here)
October 24th (the Saturday after Schism finishes!) is the one year anniversary. So, does anyone have any ideas to celebrate? Send in asks with any ideas you come up with! ❤
In the AU where Dean saves him, terrifying. He woke up with no idea that anything had changed. The only redeeming factor was he was alone with Dean at first. It was for the best. Having John or even Bobby around would be too much for him to take. It could never be enough time to adjust, but at least Dean gave him time to take it all in before anyone started to question him.
In the actual Brothers Apart, very confusing. He woke up with Walt and Mallory watching over him, so concerned for this small boy they rescued. It wasn’t until he tried to run away from them and find his way back to his family that he discovered that they were telling him the truth. Walt had to haul him out of a motel room with a sleeping family in it, saving Sam’s ass. After that, there was no denying what had happened.
