The Curious Case of Misha and the Salad Dressing

i cracked the code 🙊 people — i think.

(mature content minors dni)

so see how misha said he had to wear jensen’s shirt because he poured salad dressing on his shirt but it was later discovered that he doesn’t eat dressing salad? well, i know we all speculate that salad dressing was code for c*m and i think that was the intention because if jensen was tossing misha’s salad or misha was tossing jensen’s wouldn’t salad dressing read c*m be a key ingredient involved in the process?

for those who may not know what “tossing the salad” means

things that keep me awake at night.

Jensen is always looking at Misha. Even virtually:

[ziigee]

It's been a while since i have socialised. For the past 2 weeks, my mind, body and soul has been possessed by Destiel/ Cockles. I have a Christmas dinner to attend to, not family, but old colleagues, literally old dudes. There's no avoiding it.

The problem is I have nothing else on my mind besides cockles (exactly what I wanted, for now). Taking a break from life.

I live and breathe cockles.

Silly, cute, obnoxious, stupid, embarrassing, filthy, messy, cockles images, boom boom boom

That reminds me, change my phone wallpapers.....

Whisky. Lots of it.

Did i miss anything?

💚💙💚 💙

Switching, guys? 👀😉

XD No wonder he lost track of the conversation there, who WOULDN'T? Thinking about Misha's ferret does that! lol XD Sorry, couldn't help myself there!!! But hey, blame, Jensen for that!!! kkkk Thank you SO SOOO MUCH for sharing this with us!!! You are INCREDIBLE!!! :) <3

his ferret goes other places.

"Epic fantasy has responded poorly to too much oversight from above. I think that was The Witcher’s problem. You had that visionary: It was Henry Cavill. And they didn’t want to listen to him. So, well, there you go." — Brandon Sanderson

Yeah, anyway, just a friendly reminder that Henry Cavill massively over-exaggerated how much of a fan he was of the franchise and how much he knew about it as he hadn't even read the books when he first sought out the role because he thought that the books were based off the games (and for some reason despite proclaiming himself to be such a lorebuff, he ~curiously never bothered to check them out; he can't have ever googled or wiki'd the series, either, despite finding out that Netflix was making the show from the internet, because if he had, then surely he would've learned that the games were actually based on the books and would've read them; and somehow he also ~curiously never noticed that the first thing credited in the games is Sapkowski and the books.) He only read the books after Lauren told him about them and even then, he only read the series once right before he was cast in 2018. He also only ever really played the third game and even then, he never played the DLC for it.

By his own admission, he also didn't actually do any research or preparation for the role because, as established above, he hadn't read the books when he first sought out the role, he only read the series once after Lauren told him about the books, and he's really only played the third game.

"I asked my agent to put me on the spot and wanted to meet Lauren as soon as possible. I didn’t even need to prepare specially for the role. Because I breathe, I experience this universe every day. I’ve already had many opportunities to think about this character when I was playing the game. My preparation was already done before the casting even began!"

Henry Cavill was also directly responsible for a lot of the show's deviations from the books, or he at least had a hand in them, and the idea the he was such an advocate for the source material is actually just a massive pr campaign he ran against Lauren, the writers, and the show to deflect from his own responsibility for those changes and because he was mad about how he was co-lead with two women and the general prominence of women on the show.

He fucked up Geralt's characterization in S1 and made it inaccurate to the books by cutting his lines and either saying nothing or just grunting instead — often leaving his scene partners in the position of not knowing what was going on and if he was going to say his lines and even having to take his lines just in order to move the plot along. (Half of Geralt's dialogue was cut in the S1 finale, btw.)

"Henry tends to cut his lines, say less, which means I have to say more. So I had to improvise quite often." — Joey

Then in the press for S2, Henry Cavill started heavily pushing the narrative about how important adhering to the source material is to him and how much he advocated for a more book accurate, verbose Geralt — and not only did he virtually never take any responsibility for how it was due to his acting choices that happened in the first place, but he also lied about the whole thing and tried to act like Geralt was never originally written as being verbose and blamed Geralt's lack of dialogue on Yennefer and Cir's prominence — which can't be true as confirmed by Lauren. (Yennefer and Ciri's scenes were actually the ones cut in S1, btw.)

He tried to act like he was inspired by Doug Cockle's performance to make up for the lack of Geralt's dialogue — which can't be true because he only decided to use his "Geralt" voice in January 2019 but filming for the show started late October/early November 2018 and meanwhile he started cutting Geralt's lines from the pilot episode.

And he tried to act like the lines he was cutting weren't even really that important anyway so it didn't really matter that he was cutting them — which can't be true as confirmed by Joey.

Whenever Henry Cavill went on about how important adhering to the source material is to him in the press for S2 as if Lauren's vision of the show was somehow contradictory to that and the books, he was actually just mad about the prominence of women on the show. (Ciri is the main character of the main book series, btw, and women move the plot forward in the books in massive ways and are absolutely integral to the story.)

(In the press for S2, he also went on about how important men being three dimensional characters is to him as if women being three dimensional characters on the show somehow came at the expense of the male characters.) (Also, here's a quote from him during the press for S2: "I believe that real men are very sensitive. They are very capable of doing things which can be violent, if possible, or necessary. But at the same time, they are incredibly capable of love and caring amongst men and towards children and family and all sorts." Weird that he doesn't specifically list women as people that real sensitive, violent men can be loving and caring towards and reduces them to just being part of "all sorts." 🤔)

Henry Cavill also fucked up Geralt and Jaskier's friendship — beyond, y'know, just cutting Geralt's dialogue in scenes with Jaskier. (Imo given everything he's said, I think it's likely a lot of the dialogue he was cutting in their scenes was any, all, or most affirmation on Geralt's side of things that he cares about Jaskier and that they're friends and, in general, just any positivity toward Jaskier and their friendship .)

"In the books, they are very, very close friends. That is so obvious. They speak to each other fondly. The opportunity is different in this story because Jaskier turns up and he’s not an immediate player straight away. We sort of had to show that essence of Geralt and Joey playing the complete opposite, which creates a wonderful dynamic. If I were to play it more directly like the books, it wouldn’t quite have the same sense of two fated friends. They’d just be like, ���Hey, buddy!” Instead, Geralt cares deeply for Jaskier, whether he wants to admit it or not."

He cut a sex scene between Geralt and Yennefer in S2 because he didn't understand Geralt and Yennefer's characters and their relationship dynamic as it absolutely would've been in character of them to have sex after reuniting.

"We wanted it to be emotional rather than sexual. It was really, really important and we had to lean away from what was originally on the page. […] That's not how they behave. How they behave is they just want to be with the person and emotionally recognize their existence again in that shared space."

He nixed even the idea of Geralt and Triss just platonically finding comfort with each other — which is what happens in the books.

"The thing that was important to me, which we took directly from the books, is that Triss asks Geralt to spend the night with her and, in the books, he actually says yes once she says just basically lay with me, nothing is going to happen. Henry felt very, very strongly that when we were playing this scene he still believed that his one true love, Yennefer of Vengerberg, was dead. He was still mourning her. So he didn't actually want to go that extra step and have them have any intimacy whatsoever." — Lauren

He didn't want to play Geralt struggling with fatherhood in any way in S2 nor with any character flaws and only positive character traits (because he was overcompensating for how he fucked up Geralt's characterization in S1 and was embarrassed that redditors were dunking on him for it and that even the show was completely harmlessly making fun of Geralt's "grumpy snowman" characterization) — all of which resulted in the domino effect of Yennefer's betrayal, Eskel's death (which in itself led to Vesemir trying to create new witchers and Lambert's harsher attitude toward Ciri), and Voleth Meir being the big bad of the season.

So yeah, anyway, a friendly reminder that the conspiracy theory that Henry Cavill ragequit the show because he just cares about the source material oh so much and he's the only one in the cast and crew to know anything about it and he's the only reason why the show followed the books in any way whatsoever is, actually, just a conspiracy theory based off nothing more than Henry Cavill saying that he cares about the source material while all of his actions and everything else he's said, as established above, proves otherwise. 👍

[sailorsally]

unfortunately my brain didn't go to age when i saw that slight limp misha is walking with today and i totally (affectionately) blame the talk of cockles scenarios from you and tess (and others) 😌

Ahahahaha 😂 But also you are so valid! 😌 and me & @blanketforcas are def to be blamed here but mostly it's Jensen's fault. He was the main perpetrator after all 😂

[sealtrick]

Where is the beauteous Majesty of Denmark?

How should I your true love know from another one? By his cockle hat and staff and his sandle shoon.

Say you? Nay, pray you, mark. He is dead and gone, lady. He is dead and gone; at his head a grass-green turf, at his heels a stone. Oh, ho!

Pray you, mark. White his shroud as the mountain snow —

Larded all with sweet flowers; which bewept to the ground did not go with true showers.

Well, God dild you. They say the owl was a baker’s daughter. Lord, we know what we are but not what we may be. God be at your table.

Pray let’s have no words of this, but when they ask you what it means, say you this: Tomorrow is Saint Valentine’s day, all in the morning betime. And I a maid at your window, to be your Valentine. Then he rose up and donned his clothes and dupped the chamber door. Let in the maid that out a maid never departed more.

Indeed, without an oath, I’ll make an end on ‘t. By Gis and by Saint Charity, alack and fie for shame. Young men will do ‘t, if they come to ‘t, by Cock, they are to blame. Quoth she “Before you tumbled me, you promised me to wed.” He answers “So would I ‘a done by yonder sun, an thou hadst not come to my bed.”

I hope all will be well. We must be patient, but I cannot choose but to weep to think they would lay him i’ th’ cold ground. My brother shall know of it. And so I thank you for your good counsel. Come, my coach! Good night, ladies, good night, sweet ladies, good night, good night.

i have literally returned because i just got the BEST FUCKING ANSWER from you. please don't feel obligated to keep replying bc i WILL continue to keep gushing but. siri being 5'7 really warms the cockles of my heart bc that's my tall-for-a-girl height and the DREAM is a 6'5 daddy like remus. 10/10. i love that remus has these depraved (yet oddly wholesome) fantasies about his baby boy. and the funny thing is that siri is just fucked up enough to love it all. running out of letters but i love u

Are you kidding me I love this shit, I'd talk about them all fucking day if someone would listen. (I am very slow to respond sometimes, but that's my work schedule's fault.)

Sirius is definitely a little fucked up, and it's hard to blame him, with his upbringing. And he hasn't thought about any of this all that deeply because he hasn't felt the need to -- he knows that he likes thinking about daddy owning him, though the specifics of that statement are just kind of revealing themselves to him as they go along.

But Sirius is smart, too, and he wouldn't be in this at all if Remus hadn't first shown him that caretaker side. Because Sirius really wad just fucking around, having fun anonymously flirting with this hot daddy; feelings wouldn't have been a factor had Remus not looked after him on his birthday, or asked about his family, or bought him groceries just because. That's part of the ownership too. The caveman is hot because it's the opposite side of that coin. Sweet, calm, nurturing Remus has a switch in his head and all Sirius has to do to flip it is flutter his lashes and say "Hi daddy," and suddenly he's got this handsy, snarling, possessive man all over him.

"Everyone's gonna know my daddy marks up my throat 'cause he owns me." That was Sirius, that was the first time either of them voiced it. And up until that point, Remus hadn't even really let himself think about it in those terms, because that was literally like three minutes after they had kissed for the first time.

Sirius has taken every first step. Remus has just been pulled along from holy fuck he's hot to I'm going to fuck his brains out to he's mine all mine forever. Remus did not see this coming. You better believe he was biting his tongue HARD that first night in Sirius' bed. There were so many things he wanted to say, and nearly did. A few of them might slip free over Christmas.

As a side note, I will die on the hill of the wolfstar size difference. Remus as a gentle giant and Sirius as a tiny spitfire is my forever headcanon.

Your comments on my old Thorki fic always made me giddy (I did not realise you were the same person until after I responded to your last ask). I'm so flattered that you read off-pairing for me, and your enthusiasm makes me so fucking happy. Thanks friend ❤️

[lean-mean-demon-genevieve]

i read your blog religiously because I love the way you expose gen but you treat Jared as if he is some saint, he is also not some goody two shoes or whatever he has doxxed people, throws public tantrums constantly when things don't go his way, I earlier used to blame gen for this too for not controlling that man child. Also the stealing fans money in the name of charity through his weirdly self centered shirts and Michele stands, him pranking his co stars bordering sexual assault and non con. I wish you did expose of all padaleckis because we need brave soul like you to expose all the fake flop actors, but you keep yourself way too focused on one flop girl. Jared is not some victim if not better he is way worse than gen that's all I want to say.

You certainly said…that…

I hesitated to give this anon a platform, but I will say this:

I’ve been very clear to NOT paint Jared as a victim. Multiple times. But I also want to be clear that I don’t align with anything else that you’ve said here.

You’re using buzzwords that make me think you’re a big ole extreme Misha fan, and I have to tell you that I don’t want anywhere near that crowd or types of content. There’s a ton of drama, exaggeration, and hyperbole of the Heller and/or Cockles variety in this ask. And I guess I could be wrong, but you kinda checked all the boxes there. You just forgot the arrest.

Jared is not a saint by any means, but this isn’t an anti-Jared blog.

If you feel that strongly about your opinions, there is a near endless supply of Tumblr URLs…so pick one, tag your content to find your tribe, and get to posting. Instead of whining about my content, I’d actually invite you to go ahead and put in the work of developing your own engaging posts. I won’t be recruited to do it for you.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX666XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

I sat depressedly in Daddy Till’s office wiv Hedwig, Satan, James, Serious, Snap and Lucian. Daddy Till was sitting in front of us cruelly. He looked more young den he did in da future. He had taken da ipod away and wuz now lizzening 2 a shitty Avril Levine song. Hedwig couldn't take it anymore and flew around the office.

“What da hell is this anyway??” he cackled meanly. I hoped he didn’t find out dat I was frum another time. Even though I had already told everyone that I was from a different time, they had children and those kids could just not keep their hands off me. I had not exactly been subtle about the time travel at all! AT ALL!!!!!

“Whatever u do don’t blame Paul Darkness Alzheimer Birdflu Landers, u jerk.” Satan said. "Nothing bad that ever happens is her fault!"

“Yah, siriusly she was trying to get Satan and Hedwig back together.” Serious said deviantly.

“Be quiet you Satanists.” Daddy Till cockled. “If ur lucky I’ll probably send u all to Akazaban!!! That will teach u to copolate in da Great Hall.” He changed the song on da ipod 2 a n’Sync song. Suddenly I noticed sumfing strong about da Ipod. It was slowly chonging! Daddy Till didn’t notece. He was too busy cockling secretly behind his desk. I knew he loves me too.

“You fucking poser.” I muttoned.

“I bet you’ve never herd of GC.” James said. Know I knew waht da iPod was chonging in2- Morti McFly’s tim machine!!!!!11

“Shut up Jomes!!!” Richard's dad shouted. Well, not dad I guess. Not yet. But he knows that

“Yeah shut up!!!!” Snake said preppily.

“No u shut up Daddy Till!!!!!!!!1111” said Tom.

“I’ve had enough of u Satanists in my school!!!!” shouted Daddy Till spuriously.

Suddenly I grabed da iPod from him. “Evry1! Jump in b4 itz 2 l8!!! I jumped in2 it. But only 1 odder person jumpd in. It was……..Satan.

“You dunderheads!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111” screamed Daddy Till wisely as we went.

I looked around. I wuz in da Slitherin conmen room wiv Satan. I was wearing a blak plaid miniskirt with hot pink fishnetz, a sexy blak MCR corset and blak stiletto boots with pink pentagroms on dem. My earrings were blake Satanist sins and my raven hair was all around me to my mid-black.

“Hey kool where iz dis?” he asked in an emo voice.

“Dis is da future. Daddy Till’s iPod dat he tried to take away from me wuz really also a tim machine.” I told him.

“Kool what’s an ipatch?” he whimpered.

“It’s somefing u use 2 lizzen 2 music.” I yakked.

“OMFG kool wait whatz a 4-letter-wurd 4 dirt?” he esked in his sexah voice.

“Um I guezz sand????” I laid confuesdly.

“Yah I wuz just triinyg to make sure u were stil da same perzon.” He triumphently giggled.

Suddenly some of my friends walked in.

“OMG you’re fucking alive!” said Ginny wearing a blak leather jocket, blak baggy pants and a goffik black Frum First to Last shirt. I explained 2 her why I was alive. And why she was in the story. And why she suddenly liked me. And where she had been all this time. And that she was totally not some rando who just showed up because I had a fight with my friend again and I needed a stand in. She was made of cardboard.

“Konichiwa, bitch.” said Willow. She was wearing a blak corset showing off her boobs with lace all around it and red stipes on it. With it she waz wearing a blak leather miniskirt, big blak boots, white foundation, blak eyeliner, red eyeshadow, and blak lipstick.

“Hey, motherfucker.” Said Diabolo with his red hair. He waz wearing a black P?ATD t-shit and blak baggy pants.

“Hey whose that, Paul Darkness Alzheimer Birdflu Raven Face Landers?” Frau Schneider questioned as she walked in wearing a black t-shit with a red pentarom on it with lace at the bottom, red letther pants with blak lace, and black stolettoes.

“Oh its Satan.” I told her and she nodded knowing da truth.

Suddenly Satan started to cry.

“Are you okay Satan?” we asked concernedly.

“OMFG ur from da future!!1! What if u don’t like m anymore koz were from difrent times?????” he asked.

“No I still like you.” I said sexily to him.

“Ok.” He said ressuredly. I let him lizzen 2 Teenagers by MCR on my ipod while I was about to go outside to find out some fingz. I gave Diabolo a signal to keep Satan occupied. Satan fell asleep. Diabolo was the most boring person in the school and only there when I needed a stand in for Richard or Vampire. Much like his sister. I took the iPod. I was about to walk outside. Profesor Sinister ran in!!!!!!!1111 She was wearing a gothic blak minidress with depressing blak stripes, white and blak stripped tights, and red converse shoes. She was wearing LOTS of blak iliner.

“Oh my fucking god, where’s Richard!!!!111 How did Snap get back here!!! I tohot he wuz in Azerbaijan.” I asked sadly.

“Paul Darkness Alzheimer Omnipotentia Landers I was so worried abott u but I know you can’t fucking die because you’re a vrompire. Even though you have died like 7 times already but I guess some people just won't die. Snape came back because that girl Britney freed him. I never liked her she was a bad student. For no reason whatsoever and we just need someone to bitch at so that one person you know in your life had to do” Trevolry said reassuredly.

“That bitch!!!!!!!11 Did she also free Hargrid and Loopin?” I shouted angrily. I hated Britney because she was a fucking prep. No reason as to why whatsover

“Yes they are on the loose at this school. Daddy Till is back Cornelia is on his way to help evry1. Tell evry1 u see to lock themselves in their conman room!!!!!!” Trevolry said worriedly.

“OK. But where’s Richard???? How cum he was doing it with Snap?????”

“I dunno why but I know he almost tried 2 commit suicide after he saw u almost kill urself.” she said. "Also that wasn't Snape, that was the nice one, Flake. Snape is the evil one and he has been posing as Professor Flake all this time!"

“OMG dat’s terrible!!!!!!!!” I gasped. Satan was still asleep, so he couldn’t tell what was going on. Then I said “Lizzen evry1, I have sumthing imptent to do. in hr evry1 stay!!!!!!!!!” wiv dat I ran out.

“Good luck Yoda!!!!!!!11” everyone cried.

I ran sexily down the staris in2 da Grate Hall while da portraits around looked at me scaredly. There was hardly ne1 else in the stairs nd tere was an atmosphere of horrer. On da way I saw Britney laughing on da stairs. She was wearing a a slutty pink shirt wiv flowers on it, a blu jean skirt Abercromie and pink stiletoos. She looked jest like a pentagram of those fucking preps Hilery Duff and Lindsey Lohan.

“You fucking bitch!!!!!111” I shouted angrily.

“No, your totally a bitch. Now Voldemort will like totally kill u!” she laughed.

“Crucious!!!!!!!!!1” I shouted selectively pontificating my blak wand and she started screaming koz she was being tortured and I laughed sodistically. (pontificating is a hard word and definitely used wrong here)

“No!!!!!!1 Help me!!!!!!1 Please!!!!!!!!1” Britney screamed terrifiedly.

I put up my middle finger at her. In her hand I saw da video camera Snape and Lumpin had used to take da video of me. I put the tape of Voldimort doing it with Hedwigg onto it. Then I continued to rown down the stairs with the camera. When I had reached da Grate Hall I saw Vampire Potter. “OMG Vampira!!!!111” I yielded.

There was a magical cow in the great hall. We hugged each udder happily. He locked at me wif his gothic red eyes and spiky blak hair. Around them were blak eyeliner and iShadow, the newest product from Apple. His He wus wearing a blak leather Jackson, ledder pants, a Panik at da Disko concert shirt and his blak congress shoes. He looked mor like Joel from Good Charlote than ever. (did u hear der song da river it rox!!!1)“I wus so worried you died!” moaned Vampire.

“I know but Im a vampire lol. When I woke up I wuz back in 1980, so neway I bought Voldimort from when he was yung with me.”

“Where’s Richard?” I asked spuriously.

“Richard? You mean that fukking poser who betroyed you?” Vampir snarkled with anger in his sexy voice.

“I NO BUT WE HAV 2 FIND HIM.” I SED SMARTY.

“I’ll do it den.” Harry said angstily.

“OK.” I argreed. Suddenly……….all da lights in da room went out. And den…….da Dork Mark appeared.

“Oh my fucking satan!!!!!” Harry shouted.

“I fink Voldimort has arrivd.” I sed anxiously. “Fuck, I have to find Richard!!1 I guess we shood separate.”

“Ok.” Vampire sed diapperating. Sadly I ran into the Great Hall.

So i screenshotted the hell out of Misha last night (still haven't figured out giffing 😑)

Some fine examples of this man that has overtaken my mind and my cloud space.

(how does anybody get any work done with this man around?? He is soo frigging distracting and I have only seen him in 2D 🙄)

Anways,

4 hours and 2000+ screenshots later, i was so disoriented from awe and disgust (affectionately) for this man's beauty and charm, this isn't me, i thought. I have had ENOUGH! I am going mental!

***

Morning comes and i am greeted by this magnificent beast of a man with his fine husband,

[Oh hello my beautiful angel, let's get on with the day, shall we? I wonder what you are up to, today? Hope you are doing well, Misha. Have a good one 😘]

That's how internal convos goes every morning before i speak to anybody other humans.

So, to summarise, I miss you EXTRA today 🥺

💙💙💙💙

💙💚

[certain-blue-eyes]

So...

I changed the home screen of my watch as well...

This is one of the pictures I'll never forget...

Bracelets: it's an Italian brand, actually 🤭

The blue one is because blue is my favorite color, and if this bracelet had a name, it would be 'blue means eternity and freedom'

The silver one is actually my con bracelet. One new element for each con visited by me. After Purcon6, JiB12 was my first con outside of Germany. Btw - did you see the 'green heart and the blue dots'? 🤗

I saw this photographer complaining about your use of the picture, too. Reading the comments was just …

Instead of calling someone a creepy conspiracy theorist because they interpret a photo (and real life comments and actions) differently than themselves, maybe they should try looking at things from another angel. This obsession with seeing Jensen as perfect and constantly having the time of his life is ridiculous and points to a huge bias. I’ll be honest, the particular picture in question, where Jensen looks in pain, could be him "living the music" but to me, he does not look like he’s just grooving. Also, there is video of the concert, so it’s not like people’s opinions are only based on photos.

The last time Jensen performed at a con, he was yelling, not singing, and yet they praise his amazing performance. Jensen has a lovely voice when he isn’t straining it, and is a good performer (usually), but that doesn’t actually mean he is an amazing, Uber talented singer. He was very good as Dean, but to say he never had over the top moments or ones that didn’t quite connect, is just not true. Saying he’s liberal and a huge ally is a huge stretch seeing as he is very closed mouthed on politics in general (I don’t actually blame him there, as if I were famous I’d want to appeal to the widest audience and would stick to discussing my art). Saying he likes Destiel now because he learned the hard way that criticizing the stupid ship gets him outright hate and death threats, is embracing willful ignorance. Jensen and Danneel can only be viewed as couples goals, despite the fact that their body language screens anything but affection. Jared is the bad guy because he cracked the illusion that Jensen is a perfect friend, professional and gentleman, and had a "tantrum" on Twitter because he didn’t let Jebsen off the hook or bail him out, for once, for his shitty actions around the prequel. Jensen supports Ukrainian and really cares about the issue, despite the fact that he starred in a commercial promoting Atomic Heart. Anyway, my point is the man is not perfect, no one is, but as soon as they see any criticism, they call the person delivering it crazy, a hater, or a miserable person who is just projecting.

I love my family, but that doesn’t mean I think it or each family member (myself included) is without flaws.

I started watching Supernatural as a Dean and Jensen fan. I was crazy about Dean until later seasons when he just got angrier and more hypocritical. At first, I admired Ackles for his love for Jared and humility, but his behavior (his inconsistency at cons, and how he talked about Jared lovingly one minute, then criticizing him at JIB or joking at his expense when he’s not there, while calling him brother in the next breath) would not allow me to keep blindly sighing over him. Not to mention, I noticed how his stories were always humble (or not so humble) brags. He isn’t consistent and changes for the crowd he’s in.

I’m sorry, but if you are the one who only sees someone as perfect and can’t acknowledge any flaws to the point that you need to attack anyone who dares mention one, then you are the one without a balanced view. Our observation are subjective, obviously, and you don’t have to agree with how someone elde interprets something, but to instantly write them off as just a hater or lying (unless it’s a provable lie, or delusion with no proof like hellers and cockles shippers) maybe take a look at your own objectivity and need to go to battle for someone you don’t actually know.

It saddens me that Jensen has such judgemental, toxic fans that only care about fetishiz*ing him. Then I remember there are also fans like you, who are able to see him as a real and complex person. Thank you for this beautiful post! 💕💕💕

I think the reason why they immediately resort to bullying and gaslighting is because they know they stand no chance of making eloquent, balanced arguments because they lack objectivity. I mean all they do is project, not only on others but on Jensen especially, he needs to be the fantasy they created and is not allowed to stray from that perfect image. I cannot imagine how painful that must be to him. No human is perfect and we all just want to be loved for who we are, not for some false image others build in their attempt to exploit our beauty, like in his case.

Vintage!Cockles Anon here. I think /if/ Jensen and Misha ever had a thing, it probably started around the time they went on that dinner date (the one that gave rise to the infamous anniversary photos). I'm kinda of biased, though. My husband and I used to be coworkers and pretty much got together the same way: friendly dinner after work one night turns into multiple drinks, 3-4 hours of conversation, and well, it all went downhill from there.

You are living it as Jensen would say, I see 😁 I don’t think bias is to be blamed here, it’s a perfectly plausible possibility. Plus seeing how Jensen cherishes that memory and the photo, I could absolutely see it happening. I mean a candlelit dinner with Misha ? Who wouldn’t fall in love! (Now it’s me who is being biased I guess 😂)
