Jared: He comes to set in the…most outlandish…flamboyant sweaters, we thought he was playing a joke or something. And the most…bizzarely…. undesc–there are no words are there? And everybody’s like, ‘Ahaha, I get it–oh, you’re not laughing… nice sweater.’
I just had to put @supermishamiga‘s tags because look how excited she is? It had to be done. Plus it’s good to be reminded how much more of a schoolboyl in love Jensen was in the beginning. Bless
omg this is so embarrassing :’D
But early!Cockles Dora ok, it’s importANT!! ;___;
I know, I know, I fully acknowledge the importance of your discovery :p
But also I found your excitement adorable so I had no other choice!!!!
Jensen made a joke about Jared not being at JIB last year: “Okay, who went to every jib?” Jared walks away.
Jensen caresses his beard: It’s facial art. Jared: Fart! Facial art! They also talk about Jared’s hair lol.
The boys say when the show’s not on they’re not interesting people.
Jared: My imaginary friend as a kid looked like Jensen. Jensen: Handsome! “…Strong jaw?”
Jensen didn’t have an imaginary friend but he had a strong imagination.
Fan: Thank you BOTH for being here again. Jared: I feel like that was directed at me. Jensen: It was.
Jensen went to a fair in Austin once where they had life-sized toy soldiers and he wanted to buy one to put in the yard. He asked Danneel if they could get one but she said no lol.
Fan: Congrats on the renewal, we’ll be with you until the very end. Boys: THANK YOU
J2 speak a little German.
Jared says there were a lot of moments when he was proud of Sam. He was proud of Sam for getting Gadreel out of him. In real life he says he was proud of helping Gen through labor with Tom and keeping it together, because she thanked him for supporting her.
Jensen says he is proud of Dean when he does selfless acts or sacrifices himself for the greater good. In real life Jensen tells a story about helping a guy out on the road by helping him out of his blocked car and pushing it to the side of the road. He’s also proud of himself when JJ is scared of something and he can help her.
Jensen admits he is not the greatest fan of spiders and Jared laughs and suggests that Danneel needs to kill the spiders since Jensen and JJ are both scared of them.
Fan asks about side effects for Sam getting the Mark of Cain? Jared says that Sam has Cain’s hair so he can handle the Mark of Cain. Jensen: And Gandalf’s beard. Jared: SAMDALF!
Jensen feels they should have spent more time on Dean’s reaction to Sam wanting the Mark of Cain. Says they didn’t have the time to talk about it more.
A fan makes the boys play rock paper scissors. If she wins they hug, if they win, they get candy.
In the episode where Dean finally wins at rock paper scissors, that was not in the script, Jared came up with that.
Jared plays with the screen behind them lol. He then tries to direct a live match of rock paper scissors between the fan and Jensen.
Jensen lost at rock paper scissors so Jared hugged him and lifted him!
Fan won the bet, Jared still got candy out of it lol.
Jensen: All of the last episodes could have been the season finale and the next one…IS the finale. They think the last four eps were like a four part finale.
Jared: I was at Jensen’s house with him and a couple of friends and he goes… “That’s the season finale.”
Jared: Jensen asked, “You wanna go outside and have a beer?…Yeah” and I was like, yeah sure but you just answered your own question.
(Possible spoilers) Jensen: Stuff happens. They talk about it. Then they die. Oops. They tease there will be a huge cliffhanger.
Jared: In my opinion, the season finale is written as part of a bigger storyline, because we knew we had s12.
Jensen says that the s11 finale was the most collaborative effort between actors, writers, and crew in the history of the show. They spent a lot of time talking with Dabb and Singer.
Jared brings out the “not the Losechesters” joke lol.
Fan: Since the Winchesters never die, is immortality a blessing or a curse? Jensen: Blessing because they keep on saving people.
They say that Sam and Dean never think they could come back every time so when they sacrifice themselves it’s genuine. They still fight monsters even though they don’t have the certainty to come back.
Jensen: “Sometimes the boys win, sometimes they…” Jared: “Say it, say it.” Jensen: “Win later.”
Jared says it’s more relatable if they sacrifice themselves when they’re running a serious risk.
Fan: Given that the Winchesters saved people but started fifteen apocalypses, where would they end up? Jensen says he wants an entire season of the brothers in Purgatory. Jared agrees.
(More spoilers) Jensen says that given a conversation he has with a character in the finale, their mission might pave their way to heaven. Jared says the contrary as in there’s another faction trying to pull them into hell.
J2 are trying to talk in code and give hints about the finale without spoiling it (not sure how good of a job they’re doing lol).
Fan: “I love you very much.” Jensen: “Thank you.” Jared: “That was for me.” Jensen: “…We can share.”
Jensen talks about the scene where Dean was supposed to be angry with Chuck but cried instead, said that the line with Chuck saying he shouldn’t confuse him with John was very powerful. He then jokes that Sam was just excited because he just had cereal and was on a sugar rush.
Jared: Sam is more optimistic, filled with hope, and Dean is a core realist and that showed up in the conversation with Chuck.
A fan says “Sam and Dean” and Jared starts giggling and confesses that he was thinking of a fish with a leather jacket on and bowlegs and he was running from bears and his name was Salmon Dean and then Jensen starts making fish faces LOL
JIBCon game: J2 have to redo a scene from Batman vs Superman. Jared puts on Superman’s cape, Jensen puts on Batman’s cape and mask and they mess around for a minute. Jared: He’s so scary when he does the voice!
*Since Jared and Jensen’s solo panels are at the same time, I combined the information as it was being tweeted into one post to make it easier.
Jensen says that Sam had kept the Samulet the whole time, says he knew and it wasn’t a surprise to any of us but it was a surprise to Dean. Dean was touched and confused as to why Sam had kept it the whole time.
Jared got chills reading 11x20, especially about the Samulet. He was very happy about it :)
Jensen has a love/hate relationship with the Samulet. Says that when he runs he “catches it in his teeth” lol. He picked the Samulet out himself out of a box of jewelry at WB back in the day. He thought it was unique and cool. He liked the Samulet because it helped build Dean.
Jared talks about Yellow Fever, had to go through intense therapy to get over the snake. Snake wrangler was forcing snake onto JP.
Jensen said the Samulet is now in Dean’s pocket - apparently Dean won’t actually be wearing the Samulet in the upcoming eps.
Jensen has no idea where the nickname J-Money came from.
Jared is asked about playing different versions of Sam. Talks about how Soulless!Sam was sociopathic but logical about who he would kill. Jared says the way he approaches playing different versions of Sam is in the context of what happens in the episode.
Jensen missed the beginning of the last episode. Fan tells him not to iron Sam’s shirt with beer. Jensen: It didn’t show me spitting beer on it did it? J2 came up with the beer thing, it wasn’t scripted.
Jared said Sam’s vision of Hell was filmed in front of a green screen with Shackles - “That’s what I call Jensen” :P
Jared says they put a prosthetic over his eye and then put a hook through it. It wasn’t as uncomfortable as it looked, they used a photo double for some of it.
Jensen says that FBI suits always look nice because Dean takes pride in the way he looks.
Fan: Spoilers! Jensen: Listen, it’s gonna be a day of spoilers get over it.
Jared talks about AKF and how it helps him as much as it helps us :) Thanked everyone for being a part of it.
Jensen gives Misha kudos on Casifer, only because Misha isn’t there lol.
Jared says hiatus beard can be uncomfortable but he only gets one chance a year to grow it lol.
Jared talks about S1 Jared (regarding what advice he would give him) and talks about how back then he was restless, was a homebody and had just bought a house in LA and wanted to be at home; he thinks that translated a lot into the way Sam didn’t want to hunt. Jared would tell himself in s1 to “play the long game” and to keep going.
Jared: When I have time off I’m boring.
Jensen says Dean has a hard time with Casifer because it’s someone he hates that is in the body of someone he sees “as a brother.”
Jared talks about Misha crashing his panel last year with the conga line, said he wanted to join in lol. “It was good to see Misha, doing whatever Misha was doing.”
Jared’s favorite thing about travelling to conventions is getting to meet new people and seeing the difference SPN makes to people. He finds it amazing. He says when you’re working really hard it really helps to know you’ve made a difference to people.
Jensen thanks a fan for making him laugh so much.
Jared: “I can always use some T. Swift in the morning.”
Jensen teasing a fan: “You need to say ‘fuck this shit I’m out’ and walk away.” Fan: I can’t because my mum’s here.
Kim Manners put the idea of directing into Jensen’s head.
Fan asks why Sam didn’t keep Thor’s hammer? Jared thinks Sam’s just a fan of Chris Hemsworth ;) Says that ep was a lot of fun. Jared tries to think of the Sam/Thor ship name. Tham? Sor?
The first time Jensen directed a scene with him in it, he forgot to memorize his lines. He was too busy thinking about camera angles.
About Twitter “stalking” - Jared: You’re allowed to watch me on Twitter, that’s “why I Twit…Tweet?” :P
Jared: Me and Sam are homies.
Jensen on Jared: “There’s probably no one who lives a life as close as mine.” If he could be a shapeshifter Jensen would not be Jared because they’re already so close in real life.
Jensen would be somebody who lives on a beach if he could be a shapeshifter for a day.
Jensen: If you can keep your head in a safe place, there’s a lot of things you can do. Says that there are a lot of things he would like to try but he’s pretty happy with his life. “I’m pretty happy with who I am.”
Jared: Seeing what Jensen did (Red Meat) was a joy…is always a joy. Says filming that ep was fun but tiring to film, was happy he got to do a “Revenant scene.” Enjoyed watching Jensen’s scenes because he wasn’t there when Jensen was filming them and loves watching those scenes as a fan.
Jared says his kids were both birthed with help from a mid-wife. Has a lot of respect for that.
Jared says the awkward Sam/Cas non-hug after Sam gets his soul back wasn’t scripted, he and Misha added it on the day and it was kept in.
Jensen: “The studio has basically said that Supernatural will continue until we want to tap out - but not anytime soon.”
Jared is asked about tips to love yourself. Jared: I’ve worked really hard on this, myself and with professionals. I still find it really hard. Go easy on yourself, and forgive yourself for the hard times. Mistakes make you who you are.
Jensen is asked if he can describe himself in one song. Jensen: “One song?! What, can you? There’s not even an album!”
Jensen said ‘trolling’ then said that Kathryn Newton will hate that he just said that.
Jensen on negativity: There are naysayers who have an agenda of being hurtful. But there is so much positivity, amazing community. We need to either help the haters or ignore them. Jensen says that when people say hurtful things in fandom: “90% of that is people wanting attention or needing help.”
Fan: Shake it off. Jensen: That’s my song.
Best advice for those taking exams? Jared: Do your best, put your all into it, it will work out.
Jensen on what he learned about Dean this season: That he can fight three people in the Impala.
Jensen said he and Jared talk about how they’re part of a family because of the show.
Jared and Jensen play the best pranks, some good stuff with Rob that will probably be on the gag reel.
Spoilers - Dean confronts Chuck in the next episode. The writers are happy with the unusual choice Jensen made about a scene in the next ep. Dean cries when he’s talking to Chuck.
Jared is stumped by a fan’s Scottish accent. “I need Ruth!”
Jensen about if Danneel had been in The French Mistake: “I have a hot wife. Jared, wait outside.”
Jared says that filming comedy eps takes some of the weight off of the heavier episodes, like with Swap Meat.
Jared says if Sam and Dean did a body switching ep it would have to be really well rehearsed. Does a Jensen/Dean blue steel.
Jensen’s favorite dinosaur is a gorgosaurus. “Look it up!”
Jared is asked how he’d feel if Sam was LGBT. He thinks Sam is straight based on history, but if the writers write it, he’d be happy to do it. He’s about equality and if the writers wrote Sam as bi he’d be okay with it.
Jared: “Just to be clear, Jared is 100% pro-LGBT positive. I am all for love equality.”
I don’t normally post pics of myself and even once I have the jpgs, I’ll probably keep most of my photo ops private but this one of J2M turned out too cute not to share.
I basically said to Jensen (while barely looking up so that I maintained the ability to speak) “You can make whatever kind of face you want to, but I’d like you in the middle while we hug and love on you.”
I was so zoned into the fact I was holding onto Jensen, it didn’t even register to me that Jared had his arm around me!
Best 10-15 seconds I’ve had in a long time, there… 😝
