Heck yeah I’ve heard of it! I’ve been reading Brothers Apart and all the other AUs that have branched off from it since back before I had a tumblr account! I was only on fanfiction back then, and I found @nightmares06’s stories just by searching through the Supernatural tags, if I remember correctly. I was hooked from the very first story that I read which, funny enough, wasn’t even Brothers Apart. I read The Comeback Kid first, and I would refresh the page everyday to see if a new chapter had been posted! It is still one of my favorite gt SPN stories of all time. From that point on, I read all of the stories that weren’t part of a series (The Dollhouse, An Ounce of Courage, Reversal of Fate, etc.) since I was a bit intimidated by such a large series at first, but after falling in love with all of those stories as well, I just knew that I HAD to read the series. Brothers Apart was the only one there at the time that I was reading them, so the AUs hadn’t been posted yet. From there, I read through every single new part any chance that I got when I had free time and I finished them pretty quickly. I had a lot more free time back then though, so I’ve unfortunately fallen a bit behind on my reading for the other AUs, but I always make absolutely sure that I stay up to date on Brothers Apart stories and one of the newer AUs, Brothers Consulted (I’m a big fan of Sherlock too). I’ve read at least the first story of all of the other AUs, and they are all insanely creative as well. I can only hope to write a story as well-done as the different AUs in the Brothers Apart world, and I really admire all of the writers who work on those stories as well ( @neonthebright sent me a prompt a while back and I was literally screaming with excitement all through my house when I got that in my inbox). All of the writers that put so much work into those stories are incredible. I don’t know how they manage to crank out so many stories in so many AUs, but it’s beyond amazing to see their work in action! Keep being awesome @brothersapart! I’m hoping to get through all of the AUs one day just so I can keep going on these amazing adventures that you create!
