October 17th excerpt:

Dean tried to give Sam a grin through the glass. “See Sammy? Told ya I’d take care of it. No more cages for us.” He put a hand against the inside of the jar, and Sam instinctively placed his own against it. Even standing on the bottom of the glass jar, Dean was the shorter brother.

“Not until you’re out here, too,” Sam said.

And we have our winner!

In our new AU, Brothers Consulted, Sam and Dean were captured and sold off as kids, but found their way to safety and a family that helped them out. Over a decade later, they move into a new home to strike out on their own, but the inhabitants turn out to be more perceptive than they expected…

The official sneak peek will post at 8:30pm!

Dean actually already had to figure this one out! It happened back in Taken, and though at that point he was only transporting four tinies that weren’t comfortable being held in hands or pockets, he may transport more in the future. His duffel bag had to be completely emptied out, and that gave them plenty of room to move around in and try to forget that a giant was holding them up effortlessly.


Something huge shifted behind them while they were talking. Dean was digging through his duffel, tossing all the stuff that was in it into the back seat. “Uh, Dean. What are you doing?” Sam called out, curious.

The huge green eyes settled on Sam, making him stiffen before he could push the instinct away. It was harder after what he’d been through to act normal around Dean. “Can’t let you guys stay on the seat while I’m driving,” Dean said. “Too dangerous. I hit the brakes once and you all go flying.”

Sitting up once he was done, he showed them the duffel. “You’ll all be safe in here, I promise. I won’t zip it up so you can get out if you have to. You have my word, I’ll never trap you against your will. Any of you.”

The huge duffel was placed behind them on the seat. Figuring he’d go first and let everyone know it was safe, Sam went to climb up the bag. He found himself stopped by a huge hand.

Sam flinched away nervously. “Dean, what the hell?”

“Sorry, Sam. You’re not going in there with your arm in that condition.”

September 20th excerpt:

Sam brushed his hand along the wallpaper until he found where the edge sealed to the wall. A corner was curling up from the floor, a handprint clearly visible to Sam’s dark-trained eyes. Dean. So he had found his way into the wall. Hopefully this meant he didn’t know how much Sam had told the others. Dean didn’t need anything else weighing down his shoulders. There was only so much one person could take before collapsing.

September 17th excerpt:

“They usually focus on people with some kind of weakness,” Sam supplied helpfully. “Only the stronger demons can possess anyone.”

“For all we know it could be one of those stronger demons,” Dean complained, brushing his hand over the journal sitting on his lap for reassurance. “Anyone’s at risk until this case is over.”

“You think it could possess one of us?” Sam asked, his eyebrows climbing his face.

Dean shrugged. “If it does,” he said pointedly, “you guys know what to do. Don’t hesitate.”

Well, he’d be more prepared for strange things happening to him. At ten, he was only just learning about the supernatural. If he was older, say between sixteen and twenty, he might not have had to live so long without Dean or John.

Based on how they lived, John probably got a cell phone as soon as he could, and would want to keep in touch with his sons. Sam might be able to slip away from Walt and call up his big brother, resulting in them reuniting much earlier on. Dean would have more experience with people the size of his finger, and Sam would trust his brother much faster.

If Sam was cursed as an adult, he’d be even more in tune with Dean. They’d tease each other constantly, and he might be stressed about any thoughts of being stuck that way, but he’d have Dean with him and that’s a much better prospect that being trapped on his own.

September 13th excerpt:

Dean found himself glancing around the diner, going so far as to lean around the menu so he could see the full layout of the restaurant. It was his first time in one since being cursed, and there was a huge change from what he remembered in his childhood.

Simple tables and chairs had transformed to looming structures he or Sam would have to scale up to reach. The faint murmur of voices was louder, and if there were more people around could change to a thunderous roar. Footsteps became earthquakes, and Dean glanced down at the scuffed table under his boots, knowing he would notice anyone walking around that way instantly. The problem was, people meandered back and forth from their tables to the bathroom and to the kitchen, so it was hard to know if people were coming their way.

That didn’t stop Dean from being enamored of the diner, glad to finally revisit another part of his childhood he’d missed for years. Because of this, Sam ended up physically dragging him over to the laptop and breaking his trance.

“What’s the big idea?” Dean griped, tugging his arm free.

I don’t think there’s much chance Sam will ever forget the trauma he went through with clowns @.@ The poor guy would not enjoy a case with giant clowns for sure. His canon version gets freaked out by clowns that are shorter than him, putting Sam in a room with a giant clown would be like putting me in a room with a giant spider. Panic forever. Dean, fix.
