J2M panel 19 May 2019:

Jared joins for the final panel of the Con!

Jared "Misha's usually in the middle."

Misha: I'm just very slowly building up my law suit

Jared: you don't have to build it slowly

There's 10 minutes of outtakes of Jared mounting Misha.

When Jared mounts Misha Jared says Misha didn't fight very well

Question: if you were in charge of everything what storyline would you like together?

Misha: we have talked recently about storylines. [...] Jensen do you want to tell your dream?

Jared: wow this is really romantic?

Misha: long story short is good we're not in charge of anything.

Question: If you could set an episode anywhere outside of the US where would it be?

Jensen: here, JIBcon.

Misha: are you wearing a shirt saying Destiel is real?

Audience screams

Jensen motions encouraging.

Asked about the relationship of Dean and Cas end of season 14.

Jared's reaction was as above as he awaits the answer.

Misha says it was going well, but Dean doesn't like it when Cas stands outside his room all night long?

Jared adds that Cas is naked.

Question: was the season 14 ending edited once they knew 15 was the last?

Misha: the episode was primarily written after Andrew knew 15 was the last

Question: do any of J2m intend to do behind the scenes work I.e. directing for the final season

Misha: I'm going to try and work in craft services

Confirmed Jensen is directing the first episode they shoot.

Jared: I'm going to be a little late

Misha: and I wont know my lines

Jensen: I expect neither of you to be on time or know your lines so I shall rely heavily on actors outside of you.

Jensen talks about the crafting process of being a director. Sometimes it is easy.

More unicorn shenanigans.

Misha: God I hope our children never see this (as he's laughing I add!)

Jensen gets squirted with a water pistol from the front row.

After stabbing a unicorn.

This panel is wild!

Scoobynatural was one of their best times doing an episode as they weren't in it.

Last question:

Question: what song from Led Zeppelin would you chose to put into the series?

A lot of thought!

Misha: what about Girls Just Want to Have Fun?

Jensen is still thinking, Misha: Guys, Jensen is in a coma.

Jensen: I have every Led Zeppelin album on vinyl and I think you're right and it is Ramble On.

The others are joining them on stage.

And we end as we started with pyrotechnics

[perfackles]

Cockles panel, 19 May 2019 notes:

And the glory that is Cockles reveals itself:

Jensen's in the bathroom so Misha's starting off by himself on stage.

Misha: do you need a pair of dry pants?

Jensen: I'm not wearing pants

Jensen tells Misha he loves him as he hasn't today.

Misha said the audience looks radiant while the green room looks like death.

Jensen: "I always have so much fun with you."

Jensen: Misha, what's your latest dad joke?

Misha: I had to actually explain dad jokes to the kids last week. We have a carpool-

Audience: we love you Misha!

Jensen: Thanks Misha's mom

Misha: I had to explain puns to the kids, they were perplexed how anyone could find them funny. I noticed...

Jensen: you speak more puns as a dad

Misha: Yeah, like it's part of the aging process.

Audience: never change, Misha!

Misha: you mean like my shirt size? I'm an extra medium.

Jensen loses it laughing over this.

Question: as we all know Supernatural is ending soon

Misha, high pitch: WHAT?!

Jensen loses it laughing again.

Misha says they'll be doing a puppet show in Jensen's back yard for another 10 seasons.

Jensen: that is brilliant! No, seriously, I think we should do that.

Questioner: since the show is ending what is one thing you won't miss and don't say each other as we know that's not true

Misha: we're not allowed to say each other? This is related, but I'm not going to miss Jared and Jensen hurting me.

Misha tells a story about bad blocking in the season 14 finale, simply because with Jared next to him he knows Jared will mess with him. Jared pinched Misha's inner thigh at the MOL table.

Jensen loses it again at Misha calling Jared a gorilla "I haven't heard him called that in years."

Jensen: you know what I will miss? Jared army crawling into set just to pinch the inner thigh of Misha during a scene. There's not another set where that happens - period.

Jensen asks us to applaud the CW president who has been a great champion of the show. They have annual dinners where new cast goes to dinner with them and Mark tells people to "try and do what these guys do".

They get a lot of compliments in these dinners, and at the upfronts this year.

Misha says on the set when he turned up it was incredibly welcome and warm, all these efforts made to make new actors coming in welcome.

Jensen: to be honest I was just like (sigh of relief) I'm not the short one!

Question: what was a scene scary to shoot?

Misha says filming crawling out of Purgatory was horrible as they had sand being blasted at them.

"I saw Sam tackles Cas to the ground and I was immediately terrified" talking of the episode in the "milkshake town."

Misha and Jensen simulated Misha and Jared filming as Misha crawls on top of Jensen

Jared joins the stage.

[perfackles]

Misha first panel, 18 May 2019, edited for clarity and things:

Oh gawd his maroon suit is doing everything for me:

Misha looks at the pink wine, decides it isn't for human consumption.

Misha: they really set Cas up for a lose-lose situation so now Cas has to just walk around thinking sad thoughts all the time. We're all thinking about this being the last season and all the lasts we're going to have along the way. This will be our last JIBcon while we're still filming Supernatural. We did our last upfronts, our network publicist is usually very stoic but was crying this time.

Misha: I think about the last of something a lot in my life, I guess because I like to make myself sad? Especially with the kids. Is this the last time both kids will come into the bed and both pee in the bed on the same night? I sometimes think about the kids when they get older finding old YouTube videos of me talking about them, and them never wanting to talk to me again?

Question: I'm sure you get asked this a lot, I love the funny question but I wonder if there's anything special you'd like to see? Like human impala or body switch?

Misha: experiencing other bodies? Short of doing an actual gay porn, which I think everybody is looking forward to, I'm sure the producers are planning to do that in the series finale.

Misha is creasing up on stage laughing at what he just said.

Misha: We've been talking about the Butch Cassidy set-up we left, in the moment hunkered down surrounded by demons and ghouls wouldn't it be great if we just said "let's just fuck".

Misha: I hope we have a few more of those episodes like French Mistake, Baby, Scoobynatural, but we only have 20 episodes and a lot of goodbyes to give. But it would be great to have some of those more irreverent episodes before the end.

Question from Misha: what is it about Castiel that inspires you? His consistent wardrobe?

Person at mic: that he does what he thinks is right, his heart is in the right place. He's very selfless.

Misha: that's very nice, thank you.

Misha would like to do more podcasts, using just his voice to tell a story.

Question: have you ever had a lost in translation situation?

Misha tells a story about accidentally offending at a restaurant in Italy thanks to not understanding the hand gesture.

Question: is there any kind of artist craft you would like to learn?

Misha: yes, I would like to learn to paint

Question: why would Jon Snow be the best for the Iron Throne?

Misha: you know when it is a runaway show when you're at a Supernatural convention being asked about Game of Thrones.

Person at the mic: I think Jon is a bit like Castiel

Misha: wouldn't it be great if Cas took the iron throne?

Question: what would season 4 Castiel think of season 14 Castiel?

Misha: he would think he let himself go. Season 4 Cas had very little empathy. Season 4 Castiel would think season 14 was a disgrace. The only thing important to Castiel in season 4 was being a soldier in heaven. Castiel in season 4 would lament season 14 Castiel hadn't kept up his fitness or moisturised enough? We never addressed it in the show but his vessel should not be aging?

Audience: It hasn't!

Question: the empty said it would come when Cas is happy, what needs to happen for Cas to be really happy?

Misha: that is so heartbreaking, why would you ask such a question? I think when Castiel feels like he belongs, that he's really a member of the family. That Sam and Dean care about him, that he's written some wrongs. When he feels these things then he'll die.

End of panel!

[perfackles]

Mishalecki, the ones and only, 19 May 2019:

Jared "Hey, Misha? I pick you."

Misha "I pick you!" Sticks his finger up Jared's nose.

Misha: how about you entertain us for a change?

They go to take a question, person says her friend is in the other room, Misha and Jared leave to go say hi to them.

Question: do you guys picture yourselves intentionally working together after the show ends?

Misha: No! But accidents happen.

Jared: I don't know, what are you going to do after the show?

Misha: I love the idea we could accidentally work together. "Oh shit, I didnt read the call sheet!" I hadn't thought about it.

Jared: I hadn't thought about it until now. Sure, it would have to be something- I feel it would be hard to working with Jensen or Misha on camera ever again as I'm so committed to the Sam and Cas and Sam and Dean relationship. It would be difficult with the dynamic.

Misha "You've been talking about socks since we woke up this morning." Jensen was enraged as he doesn't like to waste stuff but it costs $9 to launder socks that cost $5!

Jared travels with laundry detergent.

Question: what is it like doing public interviews compared to cons

Misha: We aren't talking about Wincest, we're a little more on point. That's the main difference.

Jared: one of the main difference the public they don't know the show as well as we or y'all do. They are friendly and supportive but they don't always know

Misha: Who are your least favourite reporters?

Jared: I'll tweet it later. This is more like a conversation where we can be silly with friends. Promotion I'm playing the role of Jared?

In interviews they have things they can't talk about so they make stuff up as opposed to at cons where they play with squeaky balloons.

Jared: there's going to be a lot of crying over the next year.

Question: Misha you said you thought it would end sadly, Jared you said you just want them together?

Misha: I said it was going to end with an orgy

Question: you've come back in so many ways can we thing of a tragic ending we could believe?

Misha: it would have to be everybody dies then we make everybody's television explodes.

Jared: we need to start now trying to make the internet explode.

They'll get Putin's help to explode the internet.

Jared: the only ending nobody would believe is "everybody lives."

Question: Jensen's keeping the Impala, what are you getting?

Misha: What Jensen doesn't admit is there's six Impalas. We're all stealing Impalas.

The blue pickup truck had a note about going from 1st gear to 3rd or the engine would explode.

Jared: "I think Ackles deserves the car. I just want the men of letters' bunker." He wants a place to sit and read fake books.

Misha: I'd take all the editions or Busty Asian Beauties. They make a cover and inside is a regular porn magazine.

Whenever you see one of them typing on a computer screen Misha can guarantee what they are looking at is a giant erect cock.

Jared: I am so sorry for answering your question.

Question: are you're both good father, what would you have done different in raising and influencing Jack?

Jared: I am a father in real life, Sam is not - that he knows of - I think Jack turned out quite well. Meesh?

Misha: I think you answered the question.

Neither speaks any other languages but Jared wants to learn Italian. Gen is in the process of getting her Italian passport as her grandparents were from Italy.

Misha speaks English in accents.

Question: how quickly could you eat a 27lb gummy bear?

Jared: at least 5 minutes. A long time? Misha would do very well. It would take me a while, Misha could do it faster.

Question: if you could describe each other as a kitchen appliance what would you be?

Jared: Mortar because Misha can take a pounding

Misha: I have to have it to him, he won that round. Hat off to you sir. I will have to think about that, nothing tops taking a pounding.

Jared: he says that all the time!

Music plays them off

[perfackles]

Jensen second solo panel, 19 May 2019 notes:

Jensen: I forgot how fun squirt guns were.

You need a video for this part!

Question: a lot of changes in technology for filming and watching, how have these changes effected things that happen on set?

Jensen: Great question. We were on 35mm film in 2005, actual film. We switched to digital season 3, and things like checking the gate became obsolete. No switching out giant film mags. The lighting became different which is the only real difference from film to HD. That's the only real difference, it is skewed differently. HD you can see of the more imperfection. You can do more but you can see more of the flaws. There are tricks to make digital look film like. We try to make it as close to what the human eye sees, so the only difference is the lighting.

Question: you have so many fight scenes how do you prepare for these?

Jensen: depends what the fight scene is. If it heavy with a lot of physical moves and fight choreography we do rehearse it. The stunt doubles because of the schedule will come in a day or two before and rehearse, map it out and design it. Then we come in on the day and watch our doubles perform it. I then step in and run it a few times and run it with the stunt double I'm working with that day. The stunt choreographer will film it and send it and Jensen then memories the moves.

This is just complicated ones, simple stunts he just does it on the day.

He caught a fist to his temple while filming Season 14 and he didn't stop as he didn't duck in time. It happens more than people think and definitely to the stunt guys.

"They don't get the credit they deserve. They take the hard hits for y'alls' enjoyment."

Question: was the trailer hitch specially built for Baby for Prophet and Loss? (14x12)

Jensen: yes it was specially built, and I have driven a trailer before.

When Jensen is driving Baby the safety people will go off set as they know he's safe, but with Jared more come on set to protect people. They wouldn't let Jared pull Baby into shot, they got Jared's stunt double to do it into a wig.

"The guy can't drive a car and is almost 40!"

But the hitch was taken off after the episode.

Question: what career would Dean have instead of hunting?

Jensen: construction? Be the guy who controls the wrecking ball - not because he's a Miley Cyrus fan. But Jensen doesn't really know.

Question: do you miss the crazy motels of the earlier seasons and do you have a favourite?

Jensen: yeah, I do. The black and white one is one of my favourites. The art department does a fantastic job. And also the Western ones with the saloon doors. He hopes to get more motel rooms they add a touch of creativity to the set.

Jared thinks he's taking the entire Men of Letters' set home with him. Jensen has no idea what he's going to do with it.

Question: how do you keep yourself sane with all the travelling?

Jensen: he's constantly changing time zones and travelling, he sleeps when he can. He's somehow tricked his body by immediately changing his watch to the time zone he's travelling to. He doesn't get to sleep until the same time every day as their filming patterns change so much.

"Jared can sleep standing up, I need to at least be able to sit."

They have sleep contest of who can go to sleep the fastest.

Danneel has only ever been in a relationship with him while he's on the show so it's all she's ever known.

Next year Jensen thinks Danneel will be confused why he's around.

Question: how has your friendship with Jared impacted how you play Sam and Dean

Jensen: Immense impact. I don't think without the friendship we wouldn't have the chemistry on screen, same with my friendship with Misha, Speight and Rob. There's a true bond.

Jensen has a shootout with a water pistol which is his signal to get off the stage.

[perfackles]

Jensen Ackles, solo panel 18 May 2019:

Jared plays "The Final Countdown" the song on the toilet?

They were in a hotel, both went to use the bathroom and then Jensen hears the song playing. The song is now forever ruined for him by Jared.

Question: given how the last season ended, not to spoil anyone-

Jensen: don't tell me, I haven't seen it

Questioner: Oh, sorry?

A lot of laughter.

Questioner: how would you feel about a crossover with The Walking Dead?

Jensen talks about how it would be cool to have the Impala just drive by and Negan look at it confused.

Jensen says the CW upfronts one of the CW executives called the Jonas Brothers the Jones brothers.

They were in a room with most of the cast for shows on the network, which traditionally skews for a younger cast so it is a lot of young cast members. Jared said "I remember when I was the young one" and now they're the same age as the fathers of these cast. Kennedy of the new Nancy Drew wanted a photo with them for her father, she said they are legends and she grew up watching them.

The execs tell them they set a good example for the young actors which is something J2 have strived to attain: respect for those on set and set the tone of fun and engagement and professionalism, friendliness, compassion and love.

Unicorns come out again! Llamas and unicorns?

"I don't have a frustration with unicorns, except they surround and threaten me. [...] do you know how often I have to answer the question are unicorns real?"

Now he's trying to break a unicorn.

Question: what's some fun details about Dean that haven't been explored in the show

Jensen: this really boils down to a cost issue, but I wish we could explore more of Dean's music though we know what genre he likes. Heard more of that soundtrack to their life and journey. We should probably have a scene or two with a cat and see what happens. There's a lot we haven't discovered about Dean but there is a lot we have. He's a very real character.

Jensen: like I said this morning, Dean shall forever live with me. We have 12 more months to discover something new.

Jensen: don't get me started [on game of throne]. Do you want to hear my theory on it? I think Tyrion will kill Dany, why? Because he was wrong. He watched his friend die and ultimate redemption of his character is to put Snow on the throne. Game of Thrones Watch party tomorrow night?

Question: for the past 14 seasons we have seen Dean go through all the horrible things imaginable, but season 13 your grieving Cas and Mary was so real, how do you do that?

Jensen: it used to come from some place outside of the show, which is common? Maybe I don't know I'm untrained. For me personally being able to tap into emotions, at the beginning I tapped into something real. But now I have lived with this character for so long I tap into him, I am Dean in these moments. Jared is Sam, Misha is Cas, Sam is Mary, these relationships are real. These are dear friends of mine. And when these things happen like they're dying, your brain tells your body it is real. You know it isnt real but you can tap into emotions that would only happen if it was real. I don't know if that's a gift or a talent or a messed up way of using my brain, but I am telling myself this is real. Emotional stuff is very difficult. These emotional moments are hard as they have the biggest impact on my heart.

Question: will we hear your songs with Steve soon?

Jensen: no, we're not hearing that on Monday at the concert. Steve Carlson is a good friend, he and I have been working on a music about 8 months, he says 19 years. We are recording music, all original, all written and produced by us.

Question: old interview from the 90s you mention your pink stuffed pig, does it still exist?

Jensen: really, did I say that? I know what you're talking about. It was something from my childhood. The only piece of my childhood I brought to California, everything else was survival stuff, and my little pink stuffed pig. I don't know why I brought it, it reminded me of being a kid. I think then one day I grew up and chucked it.

JJ has a stuffed toy called Baby.

Question: You're going to get baby after the show ends, so maybe get Jared on board and drive back to Texas filming a road trip show.

Jensen: maybe! That's not a bad idea. I'll think about that.

The pale ale they do is Jensen's favourite.

[perfackles]

Jared solo panel May 18th 2019:

Jared had heard himself Dubbed when he was in China, and met his Argentina met his "sexy and handsome" voice duber.

Question about if we'll see Jared play more music and what does music mean to him.

Jared: we have so many outrageously musically talented people on the show, and I do love to play but I wouldn't want to waste anybody's time and I am not a musician. Rob, Billy and Jensen are rock stars.

Question: which childhood memories make you smile?

Jared (starts giggling a lot) his best memories as an adult mimic those of being a kid.

The world should focus on the best of people and it would make the world better. The innocence of just trying to have a good time and be a good person.

Queation: was Sam able to reconcile with John because he could grow up and mature independently of John so he could recognise his faults in what happened

Jared: yes and no. People don't objectively have to go through things to find themselves in a position to make it right. [...] I feel everyone has the power to make peace with their demons right now.

Mentions filming with JDM he had to walk away as he was crying.

Question: what will you do after?

Jared: not direct, maybe produce or cool guest arcs on other shows.

He doesn't want input on Sam until the last moment. He doesn't want to write or direct season 15. He wants to protect Sam and do him justice.

He hasn't watched much of the show. "I'll protect Sam."

Question: why did Sam and Dean act so differently to losing their mom for a second time.

Sam: great question. Sam was really losing his mother for the first time. He wanted to keep doing what they were doing and help people. Dean knew his mom and lost her already so it re-opened the wound. He was like a horse being kicked again. Where as Sam was losing a friend he'd known maybe a couple of years, not to belittle the relationship.

Jared doesn't know what to do with his hair after. But he'd like to be unrecognisable. Grow his hair and his beard so he can give people a big hug when he sees fans.

Question: is Sam and Rowena's relationship going anywhere?

Jared: I think it is like Sam and Jack's - two powerful beings who can help each other. I don't feel Sam is looking for more friends. He isn't Jack's dad or brother, he keeps him at arm's length. It is a bit like Sam and Rowena. I would love to see more Dean and Rowena and Cas and Rowena. We only have 20 episodes left to flesh this out.

"I'll cry harder than all of y'all when the show ends, I promise you."

Question: scary episode to film beyond Bugs and why did the show stop making scary episodes?

Jared: we found a storyline that made sense for the long-term. Once we had Misha and my wife, angels and demons, the show found deeper meaning than this and that scary thing.

Question: does a part of Sam wish he'd killed Lucifer?

Jared: I honestly feel like Sam is happier his brother did that for him. The joy Dean got from killing Lucifer usurped the joy Sam had doe revenge. Something I learned from Supernatural: The best part of revenge is realising you never really needed it. Sam was happier for someone else's success. If you can find that happiness in someone else's success you'll never be unhappy.

Question about Tedtalk Sam, how was his experience and did he have fun doing it?

Jared: the Ted talk thing? The pants were really tight. The glasses prescription, it was really fun to shoot.

There's about 10 minutes of gagreel footage of Jared mounting Misha that probably won't make it.

"Thank y'all so much."

[perfackles]

Misha Collins solo afternoon panel 18 May 2019:

Misha does plan to be involved in the election.

"Who here loves Donald Trump?"

Silence then laughter.

Misha wants young people to get out and vote.

Question: what would would a Castiel cocktail taste like? What would it have in it?

Misha: Not Dean, like clouds? Don't make this dirty?

Misha says that season 15 he think we'll see the unwritten script and not what God-Chuck-Mr God? had written.

Question: what would Supernatural be like if you didn't have a stunt double?

Misha: pretty cool

Questioner: because you're bendy and flexible?

Misha: I tried early on to do my own stunts and learned early in it wasn't my thing.

He tried in a movie he did to drive a boat, which he's never done before, and he crashed the antique boat. It cost a significant portion of the budget to fix.

Question: what are the things you'll miss most about playing Cas?

Misha: the guys, the crew, just going to work. I fear you will all go too, will move onto other things? (Audience shouts no) Going to work and having my castmates fondle my genitals? I probably won't get that in another show.

He likes the dynamic relationship with the cast and fans, trying to make some good in the world. He feels he should try to be more charitable and do more good in the world, his interactions with the fans of the show helped that. "You inspire us."

Misha really liked playing Lucifer. Mark Pellegrino established a good template. It was a good long arc and some to him were too short - like human Cas. He thinks the show should end "tragically".

Misha: I think there has to be big sacrifice at the end of the show. Could it end happily ever after?

Audience member: everybody in heaven

Misha: Everybody in heaven? But Heaven is fucked up too.

Misha wants to put Jared truck in a dumpster as a large big prank for the final season. At the end of the last day so Jared can't get revenge.

He wants the GISH winners' trip to be more meaningful and mind expanding which is why the locations are less holiday.

Question: how do you think Sam and Dean will feel when they find out about the deal?

Misha: I think Sam and Dean will fuck with Cas a little-

Audience member: YES

Misha: let me reword that. I think they'd mess with Cas, maybe make him breakfast in bed?

He thought for a long time he was going into politics so he put energy into not having bad photos of him online or say anything to compromise that. And "I kind of fucked that up at these panels? There may have go be a purge. I may have to bribe fans to take these things down."

[perfackles]

Jensen and Jared 18 May 2019, edited for things most relevant to the show/their friendship a lot of fun had on stage missed out:

Jensen starts by joking JDM is joining us then laughs.

Jared: I don't think either of us ever thought we'd have the opportunity to be here 10 years in a row.

Jared: they've basically been in dad and husband mode up until the upfronts, and then it all came crashing down and they realised soon they're be saying goodbye soon.

Jensen: we still have a whole other year delivering you guys a story

Jared: and pizza

Jensen: us the story and Misha pizza. We'll see you guys all next year too!

(So JIB11 confirmed?!)

Jensen, talking about the upfronts: the question people kept asking was "what will you miss most about these characters?" But I think Jared said it best that we won't miss these characters as they're a part of us now.

Jared: one of the journalist asked which question will you miss the most?" Well, how many more years has the show got.

Now they're taking questions:

Q: what comes after Supernatural for you? What genre of movie do you think more interesting to direct and why?

Jensen: than the genre we're in? Scifi? I think comedy is the hardest, it takes a very specific talent and eye.

Jared: that's the genre where actors aren't trying to prank each other? We watch outtakes from comedies all the time. Comedy in my opinion- not having been in comedy - that it would be the hardest mountain to climb. I blame Misha. Not that I've directed, but I think Scifi would be the easiest to direct.

Jensen: action probably. I just see where the wind takes me and I'm excited to see where that is.

Question: going into season 15, you have a dilemma like season 8. What story lines would you like to see developed and which guest writers would you like to see brought back?

Jensen: We had a conversation and I mentioned a few things I'd like to see happen, and it was just that. I want to see some of our post writers come back to pen an episode but I don't know if it can happen or if our current writing staff would be pissed off.

Jared: they're all fantastic writers and really busy

Jensen: yeah they are all busy but they are part of the family. They are a part of the show and that is part of what I want to see happen. Bringing back writers, directors, actors. And I think we're teed up to do some of that, if they want to.

Jared: I'm sure everyone would want to?

Jensen: yeah, it was all amicable partings.

Someone: what about Crowley?!

Jensen: Crowley? He's not a writer. But sure, have Mark come back. If that can happen I don't know but I'm on board with that happening.

Question: so you've both shared how you'd like the show to end but how would Sam and Dean like it to end?

Jared: jesus, that's a rough question. (Jared laughs) our view is very different to your view.

J2 whispering for an answer.

Jared: I feel like, i said this in New York two days ago: I don't want season 15 to... I don't want the characters to know that it is winding down? I don't feel like their attitudes should change. That they should do whatever it takes to keep the fight going. God forbid that it will show the audience and characters that we'll be gone in 20 episodes. Not that we'll die, I hope that we'll die.

Jensen: for this to wrap up, the ideal scenarios for all those in heaven to go back to heaven, all those in hell go back to hell. Thay it goes back to season 1 when it was just monster. Castiel would stay. And then they can teach their knowledge to a younger generation of hunters. In my opinion that's what the brothers would hope for the end of the world. A state of normalcy but they still have jobs. I doubt it will happen but we'll see.

Question: if the pearl that fulfills what your heart desires was real, what would you desire?

Jared: when I go to my pine box that my loved ones know how much they mean to us.

Jensen: that everyone could experience happiness.

First "apple juice" session for J2. Turns out to be sparkling pink wine, they're calling it unicorn pee.

Question: we know that you're great men and you also inspire us, and are also best friends who influence each other, I was wondering if you learned something from each other off set?

Jared: that's difficult

Jensen: it's not difficult, we've learned a ton. There's really no one else on this planet who understands my life as much as he does, and vice versa.

Jared: how to pack button down shirts! Alongside everything else, packing shirts.

Jensen: yeah, how to pack!

Jensen gives a demonstration how to pack a shirt. A friend asked him once over the phone so Jensen ended up doing an instructional video on how to pack.

Jensen: I pack very light, I get angry if I bring something and don't use it. It makes me angry and I feel like I failed. So I've found a way to pack over the years.

They drink the glittery unicorn pink drink and now end of panel!

Jared solo panel 2, 19 May 2019, main notes:

Question about the marathon he ran in Boston. Jared says after he did the Boston he was in the bath after and decided to do the Austin on. Luckily it was in February so it wasn't super hot.

Night before the Austin marathon he and a friend drank a bottle of wine (or three) and were up past midnight. Next day Jared had an IV drip, so the Austin marathon was terrible not for the weather but for the hangover.

Jared's doing another marathon in Switzerland in July.

Question: do you remember the first time someone recognised you in the street or asked you for a photo or autograph?

Jared: during Gilmore girls days, season 1, in LA on the Universal City Walk. Jared was with his buddy and this girl asks for an autograph and she opened her bag and had a magazine in there. Jared remembers thinking how weird it was she had this.

Jared listens to Life and Murder the podcast, and Joe Rogan he is obsessed with.

Question: when Sam was soulless, did you know from the start Sam was soulless?

Jared: after season 5 it was the first time he went to the writers' room in the summer of 2010 and met with Sarah. He's always loved the way she writes Sam. He asked if she has any plans, she said "Yes, you'll be back but you'll be soulless." Jared was scared and nervous about how to play someone who is soulless as he couldn't pull from past experiences on this. So he thought hard on what it would entail to have no soul. It was "nerve wracking" to him but ultimately it was one of his favourite iterations of Sam.

Question: in season 14 the brothers spent many episodes apart, will this change for season 15

Jared: well I really enjoyed being apart from Jensen -- "I'm joking!" But he can't see a way for the show to end without them being together. Whatever happens at the end he hopes it is them together.

Question: was there ever a point where you thought about not continuing with the show?

Jared: yes but it had nothing to do with the show, it was my mental health issues. When he was on Gilmore Girls he was tired of living out of a suitcase. He had a house in LA but was travelling back to Texas and always travelling. Then Supernatural came along and he was so happy it was filming near his house so he could have a home, it was perfect for him. They got picked up and after the upfronts they went to lunch then found out they were shooting in Vancouver. Jared didn't know where really Vancouver was. It threw him for a loop as just knew nothing about Vancouver. He worried he'd be alone again, he knew Jensen and they were friends but didn't know they'd be such good friends. But in hindsight it worked out for the best as he can give his all to the show then live his life when they call cut.

Question: does you like Marvel?

Jared: I am super interested but I haven't seen any of the Avegers films. "I know a few of the guys, Chris Evans has been a buddy for a long time."

Jared has a photo of him and Chris in 2002 testing for The Perfect Score. They auditioned together a lot and saw each other a lot. He's known him a long time, "He's a great guy." Jared remembers when he broke his hand he went over to Chris' apartment as he was filming Fantastic Four in Vancouver.

Question: as a child did you have a favourite tale?

Jared: I always loved the Polar Express.

Question: in the scene Sam gets hit in the head with a rock, why does he go to the car? Because it was a safe place?

Jared: I remember filming that. The scene was blurring Nick to Lucifer. The car became a symbol of safety, Winchester safety. Even if Dean wasn't there it made Sam feel safe. It gave gratitude to the third star of the show who has been in more episodes than anyone. They have each other but they always have the car as a place of safety.

Carry On and Back in Black always remind Jared of the show. Eye of the Tiger too, even 40 years from now he'll think of it.

Question: in Jack in the Box Bob Singer turned up as a doctor?

Jared: there was a doctor?

Questioner: yes?

Jared: oh, yes! That is his second cameo as a doctor. Every now and then we force him to be in it. Jack in the Box that is Bob Singer.

Question: how difficult is it to play two Sams?

Jared: they are very difficult, I don't enjoy acting to a wall or a piece of tape but you have to for these kinds of scenes. It's difficult as you aren't acting to someone, with no one to bring something out of you. It is hard, he has to memorize the whole scene and pretend to be a couple of people.

Question: You think you can get Stephen Amell to do a cameo now Arrow is wrapping?

Jared: well, he'll be filming his own stuff. But why do you think Arrow is ending? Obviously the Winchesters are going to kill all the Queens!

My summary notes for all the J2M and combination there of for JIBcon 2019 aka JIB10 

p.s. These were made pretty much while I was watching the panels whenever there was a pause or from what I could remember afterwards, so I’ve definitely missed little things and they’re very rambling in places with some typos in for sure. There’s some questions I didn’t include as either I didn’t have time to get down, which is to say, nothing has been edited out in malice. And yeah, I could go back and watch the videos, but mostly I did this for myself so there we go: 

Misha first panel 18 May 2019

Misha second panel 18 May 2019

Jensen first panel 18 May 2019

Jensen second panel 19 May 2019

Jared first panel 18 May 2019

Jared second panel 19 May 2019

J2 combo panel 18 May 2019

Mishalecki panel 19 May 2019

Cockles panel 19 May 2019

J2M panel 19 May 2019 

The most important points to me overall really came from Jared I think, where he talked about the point he didn’t think Sam saw Jack as his son, and that Sam kept people at arm’s length. He also talked about how Dean lost his mom for a second time, while he felt Sam had more lost someone he cared about who he’d known for a while and thus they had very different reactions to the death. 

They confirmed it was known that Season 15 was going to be the last before the finale for Season 14 was written. 

Season 15 sounds a lot like it will be 20 episodes in total. The guys all seemed to share a view that it had to end somehow tragically. Though someone asked a great question about how given all the deaths we’ve seen, how they could end it in such a way and make us believe it would really stick, that they aren’t just going to come back from the dead again. 

It didn’t make it into any of my convention notes as I hadn’t thought at the time to make any, but Rob very early on suggested he thought Chuck had done what he’d done in Season 14 for other reasons that we don’t yet know of. He doesn’t actually know anything more though. 

Jensen and Jared are both really hoping they can get back as many writers especially to the show for the last season.

He also showed the short film he's made with her, Momma Bear, very kick ass.

Jared and Jensen solo panels today, then Mishalecki, then Cockles before they end with a quick J2M affair.

I have a Jensen meet and greet within this at some point in the day.

By day 6 of being in Rome I have just a little bit lost all perspective of time and place, so that's fun!

Two down, one to go ❤

Misha laughed when he saw it, which amuses me when he must have seen it a lot by now.
