So, predictably, people are taking the J2 way too seriously: [link] I haven't seen that in the wild, thankfully. Just references to it.

Baby JJ! Pretty cute, if also a little strange. Although fandom, as usual, is being completely craxy about it.

For some reason, I'm also picturing JJ Ackles as the toughest kid on the block.

I wonder why Edlund left. I haven't heard any reasons, just that he has. Maybe he's going off to do something new?

Also, I just read a story written in S2 where Dean is covered in tattoos. It's like, did you see the ghost truck episode, where he was shirtless with Cassie? Not tattooed, folks.

He's off to Revolution, with Kripke, which sounds like a waste of evil genius to me (I never for a second considered watching Revolution because Kripke was involved--I watched about half an hour to see how they handled the ridiculously stated premise, and then got bored.

I just saw a Danneel tweet saying the superhero connotations for JJ are intentional.

Oh, famous people and their weird names!

I watched the first episode-ish of Revolution and was really bored, too. I haven't watched it since.

I've kept watching Revolution because it's nice to have something in the DVR that I can put on while I'm tidying up or doing laundry so that if I miss a bunch of dialog and/or action I don't really care.

Also, I just read a story written in S2 where Dean is covered in tattoos. It's like, did you see the ghost truck episode, where he was shirtless with Cassie? Not tattooed, folks.

In the realm of takes on the characters with bonus self-lubricating asses that lead to fertile wombs, a few extra tattoos probably aren't beyond the pale.

I see a difference between the factors you hinge the A in AU on, offshoots of those key factors, and just randomly made up stuff.

I read a recent D/C where Sam was Dean's cousin, not brother. Why, you ask? No freaking idea. They still spend typical amounts of time together, but nothing related to relatives. Sat there like a grain of sand in your eye, thinking grumpily of narrative developments that necessitate this, but no.

Those changes I don't dig, and there also are the ones that say the author was clear not paying attention.

In a hunt for reference pictures I stumbled on this: [link] Now I wonder how many other actors we aren't often seeing from head to toe, and who knows what they're sporting?

Speaking of the crazy: Speak the truth, an exhaustive J2 archive

I love this:

This archive is done with the utmost respect for both parties

Yes, of course. Yet calling them cowards and/or liars, but respectfully? Because if they are bumping uglies and don't want to talk about it (former supported titillation, latter THEIR RIGHT) how is an entire "debunking" archive possibly respectful.

Anyway--once I got to the bit about the dogs, well. I know what Colin told me, and I take his word over theirs so I quit reading, since the purported inside source they base a lot of this on disagrees with Colin's conversations with Jared.

I'm afraid to ask, but curiosity is getting the better of me...
