Posted without comment. (from 2006, apparently.)

...okay, I lied about the without comment.

1) Jesus, Jensen is pretty.

2) And SO VERY VERY MUCH not Dean Winchester even a little bit that it always makes me laugh. And want to pat him on the head and build a little fence around him to stave off the crazier elements of fandom. (Like the people who apparently insisted, at some Con, that he perform that Eye of the Tiger routine, and then booed him when he didn't. For the love of FUCK, people!)

3) ...in spite of which, I cannot deny that the RPS writes itself.

Thanks to the ginormous puppy he works with, yeah. Silly boys. I love them so.

And if you haven't see this one, Fay, talk about fanfic writing itself. Oh, JARED. Part II is just as funny.

Right?! Before this show I was "RPS Bad, I spit upon you". But with these guys, you can't blame someone for writing what they see in interviews or panels. And some of ya'll are very talented in that area btw.

Then again, now we have Misha who writes his own.

Jesus, Misha is just SO ADORABLE! With the disarming glee at his acquisition of an army of adoring minions. He makes me laugh my socks off, with his Twitter posts. Bless him. He's so relaxed and silly about this stuff, and Jared appears to be too, for the most part, from what little I've seen - just having fun with it. Which is awesome.

And then there's poor Jensen, who always seems uncomfortable and earnest and defensive, under a veneer of politeness and professionalism. Except when he feels in his comfort zone of me-and-my-buddy and gets carried away with the silly. Poor wee scone. Honestly, my reactions to Jensen are divided pretty equally between (1) admiring the hell out of his acting chops, and the integrity he brings to his performances, and reflecting on that in relation to my own acting*; (2) feeling sorry for him with the whole feeding frenzy make-nice-with-the-scary-fen side of his job, which he clearly doesn't much love; (3) being pole-axed afresh by the sheer astonishing volume of pretty each time I see him, either being himself or in character. Because - Christ on a pogo stick, that is some SERIOUS pretty. Like, Johnny Depp level pretty, Marilyn Monroe level pretty - SERIOUS, astonishing, can't-help-objectifying-and-fetishising-him-because-he's- just-that-damn-pretty pretty.

...I do feel kind of bad about being so shallow, but, but, but, jings, he's pretty.

*although not so much, at the time; at the time I'm pretty much just getting on with being that character, rather than reflecting on that character.

Here is a Misha santa picture that I hadn't seen. It's on facebook but I think it is public access?

Like, Johnny Depp level pretty, Marilyn Monroe level pretty - SERIOUS, astonishing, can't-help-objectifying-and-fetishising-him-because-he's- just-that-damn-pretty pretty.

Yes! Brad Pitt isn't always that way, but his level of pretty in "A River Runs through it" or "Legends of the Fall" Tristan pretty.

I think Jensen has a Interview-or-talk-to-fans character that he goes into when he needs to be in public. It's not the same completely unguarded person that you saw when he was grinning after "Eye of the Tiger". I don't blame him at all, but I do want to give him a blanket and some soup.

Yes!

laughs

Exactly. I had to try really hard not to say that I wanted to give him a blanket and feed him soup, but that, basically, is it. Bless him.

You know what bugs me about how pretty the Js are? I've had to create an entirely new category of celebrity crush for them. And it's spreading, like a damn disease.

There used to be two categories of actors, those that were crushable (and therefore fuckable) and those that weren't. So, screensavers, NC-17 fic and lusty thoughts for the first group, and the cutting room floor for the rest.

Now, now, I've got a new group that I find disturbing to my self-image. It's the "must pinch their cheeks and feed them soup" group. WTF? Brain? Libido? What is wrong with you? Even perfectly fine men like Mark Harmon in my own damn age group are falling into that latter category. Not fair! I say, just not fair at all. The worst fucking thing about turning 50 was discovering this new type of crush. It's downright demoralizing to ego.

...I do feel kind of bad about being so shallow, but, but, but, jings, he's pretty.

He really, really is. And time is kind to that man too. Age looks good on him.

It does feel all kinds of awkward turtle because he's a damn good actor and then I am sometimes gobsmacked because he's very, very pretty.

I watched the two-hour finale of Harper's Island tonight, and recognized Alex Feris, wee!Sam in Something Wicked, as young Henry. Also, Ryan Grantham ("Kneel before Todd!") played young JD. Canadian actor bingo starts early!
