#njcon 2019

[ironworked]

Scrolling through another fandom's tag a while back, I encountered a few anon asks warning people of the perils of bringing up RPF/shipping to the individuals who inspire it. While I agree with the sentiment, this person didn't choose a good example to go with it: Jensen Ackles and Misha Collins.

The gist of it was that this issue caused them to stop talking and even to refuse to do events together for a long time.

Which is blatantly untrue, for one:

2009 and 2010

2011 and 2012

2013 and 2014

2015 and 2016

2017 and 2018

2019 and 2020

2021 and 2022

2023 and 2024

[I'd add quotes but I think that's quite enough]

And secondly, why would it cause such a rift between Jensen and Misha when it didn't cause it between Jared and Jensen? I think you might have been misled by someone with an agenda...

So. Anon, you probably won't see this but I'll give you my advice anyway: if you really care about the topic, I'd find another example because this one works against you, if anything.

Today is the 3 year anniversary of the greatest day of my life!! I got to meet, hug, talk to my favorite person!! I even got to tell him I love him!! Of course I cried so hard after that my shoes got wet, but meeting Jared was the best thing I've ever done! Thank you forever @samisadeangirl for making it happen!

Did you meet Jensen Ackles? if so, how was your experience?

If you're asking about the most recent convention I went to last month, then no I didn't meet Jensen up-close there--we had Copper tickets (i.e. no autographs) and all the J2 photo ops were sold out by the time I got the tickets. (I did see him fairly close though when he walked by where I was sitting after finishing an autograph session).

I have seen him at previous cons when I had Gold or Silver tickets and/or was able to get a photo op ticket. Those encounters were only a few seconds by necessity since there were many other fans waiting behind me for their autograph or photo op, so I didn't really have the chance to talk to him much (and was too shy to say more than "Hi" and "Thank you" TBH). I can say however that Jensen is MUCH more attractive in person--one of my friends said it was "like looking into the sun."

My best experience with him was my last photo op in 2019 (my hair was very short in this one because I was a little over a year post-chemo), where I brought a replica of the Colt in its box as a prop. I stood facing him with the open box while he picked up the gun for the pic, which meant that for the entire 30 seconds or so I got to stare directly at his face:

The pic itself obviously only shows either of us in profile instead of full face, but it was worth it! (Don't ask me how I managed not to melt into a puddle or spontaneously combust.)

I’m still in a bit of a stupor from this weekend. I walk in for my op, dressed as Ruby, and as soon as Jared sees me he just sort of pauses and immediately starts clapping. He just leans down to me and goes, “spot on.” And then kept complimenting my Ruby costume and saying, “you look so much like Gen,” “I was like, ‘Oh, Gen’s here’,” or “This is out of this world. You look so good.” AND HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO BE MENTALLY PREPARED FOR THE PHOTO NOW? Then after we take the picture, which he fully committed to being Sam here, he pulls me in for a hug and goes, “seriously, amazing.” Then I’m moving to leave and he pulls me aside and brings me over to Cliff! And he just motions to me up and down, and says to Cliff, “Doesn’t she look like Gen? Incredible right?” I was not expecting him to say anything at all and to have him comment at the op and during the panel just-------- I have transcended human existence. 

He is such a genuine person. Every second he’s talking to you, you are talking up his full attention, he is entirely focused on you. Absolute charisma.  I met incredible, beautiful, and truly kind people this weekend. I’m immensely thankful for this family, who never seize to demonstrate how willing they are to give, support, and foster community.

Here’s my photo op with Jensen from this past weekend’s convention.  I brought a replica of the Colt (complete with case and bullets) I’d gotten from Etsy, and I asked him to pick it up.  It might not be the best picture since neither of us are facing the camera, but since I got to stare at his gorgeous face for the entire time, I’m completely satisfied! :D
