Heh. That's pretty much like what I read in the Supernatural Wiki yesterday:

sevenfists in her LJ (2007-05-09), summed up "every j2 interview ever" this way:

Jensen: I am a serious actor.
Jared: SPARKLY BALLOONS!!11!!

Hey, ita, at the end there, when Lucifer is about to rise, the boys grab each other's shirt! Just like in the fic you were talking about.

the boys grab each other's shirt!

I admit...I made an icon of it. I guess that's my version of writing it into every fic ever.

I was going through my SPN icons. I only have one Dean icon and one Sam icon, and they're both kinda mocking (Single Manly Tear and Bitchface). Seven million of both of them together, one of them with their Dad. One of Dean and Cas, two of Cas alone. But seven million of the boys. They're so cute together. Fisting each other's shirts, or whatever.

You're, dare I say, adorable.

One of my favorite icons ever is the distance shot of them walking the road in Everybody Loves a Clown. And my newest one. ::beams::

I should have read down further before going YouTube spelunking. Here's a link to the "ask Sam?" conversation from a different perspective. The phone message question starts about the 5.0 point.

There have been a lot less Sparkly Balloons! moments since the summer hiatus between seasons three and four. Jared doesn't race around set with a glue gun sticking plastic mini-action figures to people's hats, anymore. Our boy's growing up.

And my newest one. ::beams::

Hee.

Our boy's growing up.

And JA is wearing a lei on his head. Personality swap?

And fewer pictures of him in pig tails. [link]

Personality swap?

I bet this fic is out there somewhere.

Personality swap?

You know, I really think so, in part and in public, at least. It seems when JP went through his bad period and JA moved in "for moral support"--those aren't snarky air quotes, that's an actual quote--JP's dimming down of the clownish behavior sort of made room, or created enough of a vacuum, that JA's playful side got let out to play. I think as friends and as actors that they perform when the other's feeling withdrawn to draw the spotlight, a bit. Would professionally symbiotic be an apt term for behavior I may be totally imagining?

I think they just rubbed off on each other. And I actually don't mean porn.

Two things about this bit of meta on the amulet. This statement:

Did Sam retrieve the amulet? Fandom of course is generally convinced he has (and possibly melted it down into commitment rings, or commitment cock rings as one fan suggested).

And the fact that I clicked on the link to learn more about Chekov's gun, only to some mortification as I learned the Chekov in question was Anton, not Pavel.
