[link] Huh. Jensen is even brown here with blond highlights. I dunno. Just the mental image he projects. ?
Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

I first saw Jensen as Alec. Alec was also a brunette.
Ben and Alec are totally blond.

Dark blond, mind you. But less ambiguously blond than Dean.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Does it really matter?

More than getting hair and eye colour wrong or wrongish, it's the getting body-types wrong that bothers me. Like Castiel being taller than Dean or a character having a better (or worse) body than they actually have.
I agree with Perkins that it doesn't matter much, but sometimes the details being off jars me when reading fic, or pulls me completely out. Castiel does not weigh 98 pounds.

It's fascinating to me. It also helps explain things I read in fic that were completely mysterious to me, like blond Jensen.

Because books.
There's nothing I hate worse in fic than seeing "the blonde" or "the brunette" or even "the older man" and "the younger man" or whatever. Awful writing. Not even taking into account I would never call Dean a blonde.

The "older man" seems to be a fixation for some fic writers. It throws me completely out of the story. I back away when I encounter it.

After reading enough, the blond/brunette, green/hazel I put down to personal interpretation on the writer's part.
I still remember being horrified when my older brother called me blonde (in a non-insulting way, but I was still horrified), because, damnit, I had brown hair! Light brown hair that bleached in the sun to a bit strawberry blonde in the summer. IDK. Maybe since Jensen's hair in the show is cut so short, a haircut that needs to be maintained constantly, that this natural bleaching process doesn't really get a chance to take place, and all we see are fresh roots that are dark.
