To be honest, I was struggling with ideas. I'm used to just drawing the scenes in fics for events. You know, the ideas are already there on digital paper. I just have to translate them to images to the best of my abilities. I don't have to worry about attracting authors to my art. So, I thought about it a lot and I remember some people being upset that Dean never got a Zanna so why not do this. And, I followed that thought. I'm also attracted to dark angsty things. So, I had this thought of Sam dying sometime in the later seasons, and Dean being understandably upset about it. But because of Sam's desire to stay behind with his bro a fluke in the system happened and Sam got turned into a Dean's Zanna. A younger version of Sam in a clown suit was the visage to suit Dean's likes. And Sam's unique Zanna ability was magic tricks. Anyway basically Sam would stay with Dean as his Zanna and stay with him as his partner/guide through out the remainder of his life teaching him that Dean was a worth human. I was thinking angsty, hurt/comfort, and a bunch of wholesomeness. Wincest if you have to have a ship but preferably Gen, or really I guess Gencest is what I wanted the most for this.
I imagined that the scene below was their first meeting. It shocked Dean so much that he collapsed on the floor of the motel room. And Sam trying to cheer Dean up preformed a magic trick for him. Anyways, you have to remember as an artist in the RB, you can make suggestions but the fic is the author's art and interpretation of the art. And I did not want to get in the way of the author's creativity whichever way it went. But I was lucky to get an author took most of my suggestions in consideration.
