TorchMLP: I’ve got a question for Neon
TorchMLP: So sprites don’t really have access to thread like other borrowers, so what do they use to make their clothes?
Neon: Depends on the sprites! Sticking to the Wellwood sprites, they actually have a cottonwood tree and it provides plenty of fiber for them to twist into threads.
TorchMLP: Oh cool! What do they use for dye?
Neon: Whatever they can find xD since green is a common available hue a lot of their clothes are some shade of green. They can use flowers and stuff like that for color too, though
Neon: Bowman’s scarf is yellow, for example. Most probably from dandelion dye
Tag: weekend special
Phoenix: How do you write the collabs?
nightmares06: Mostly chat things out
BorrowedTime24601B: Musings happen
nightmares06: I saw Borrowed’s Zeph + Sherlock fic and was like but what if Dean
nightmares06: And for Lich we wanted to see how Bowman would do against hunters
BorrowedTime24601B: xD hunters got bopped
nightmares06: The rest just snowballed
Neon: We do it in an RP style and then I go in and edit things together so it flows
Neon: Paragraph surgery to splice the parts together
TorchMLP: So, in supernatural, a huge part of the story is Sam having demon blood. In this au, does Sammy still have the blood?
nightmares06: No demon blood XD I was never a fan
nightmares06: He is a pure bean
Abbie Kop: Does Cas have a future in any upcoming stories. Anything you can tell us??
nightmares06: He’ll be around!
nightmares06: I’m just working from Season 1 up so it takes him time to get his feathery butt down there
nightmares06: He’s tied to main storyline things
There’s no plans for him to meet Bowman and the earthbound sprites just yet, at least not in the original Brothers Apart series, but there’s always the possibility he’ll show up in another AU and see the sprites. I think it would be most likely to happen in Brothers Asunder, when Sam’s fate is more closely entwined with Bowman’s as his adopted little brother.
An Appreciation for the Sun was a really fun time! I’d definitely be willing to do something like that again, as a collab or on my own (I have some Cas prompts in my inbox that I’ve been mulling over).
The sprites would be so intrigued by his wings. I can see them fluttering around behind them after he’s shown off the shadow and getting confused. They’re not there? But they saw them a minute ago? How are you doing this. And his healing would definitely be impressive. It’d be like the Spirit Herself’s healing, so fast.
Have a question for us? Ask away! And don’t forget to join us in the Brothers Apart discord chatroom!
TorchMLP: So you did the entirety of Bothering Bowman over skype?
Neon: That we did, Torch
nightmares06: Oh my god it was the worst decision ever XD
Neon: We edited it after the fact, but getting it written was a bit of a pill
BorrowedTime24601B: Didja just copy/paste, or?
nightmares06: XD Copy paste and then go Fuuuuu when no formatting came over
Neon: Lessons were learned
The image of a bunch of Deans trying to fish out of a tiny tank is now stuck in my head. All in their nice chairs from his dream along the lake, chilling in a circle.
I think a small pond would do nicely for everyone. It gives the little guys a chance to try it out, with one of the humans supervising, then the rest of the humans can set up a few feet away and they can see who catches the most, instead of the largest (since clearly the little guys would lose that).

Everything in the chatroom will be public, and may be shared on the BA tumblr at any time, and depending on how the weekend goes, we may leave the chatroom open after the weekend concludes! Let us know what you think of the time/place, and if you have any questions or concerns, drop us a line.

I’ve watched streams, but I don’t think I could actually run one myself. I have a pretty bad anxiety about talking online or using webcams (my new computer doesn’t even have one), but I think we can manage something similar.
Would people like to do a chatroom for that weekend? We could all talk, chat, share stories and ideas and whatever else. Or does anyone else have ideas?
Yeah, I think all three of the writers live in different timezones across the states, and our helper lives across the seas from us, so timing would be awful to manage. With a chatroom, any of us can pop in over the weekend to talk, and once I find a good weekend for it and actually prepare, I can be online whenever I’m not sleeping.
