THAT POOR BOY THOUGH. He always thinks he’s being so macho manly and Captial-S Straight with all his Manly Mannerisms and Big Hulking Movements

LOOK AT THOSE GLISTENING EYES
Jensen can’t hide anything from the cameras. When he’s on set, he gets a second take, a second chance to display only what he means to display (and it works some of the time), and he gets a say in what the editors keep and take away from what they caught on film. But not on stage, not when it’s all happening too fast to keep under his control. Misha takes Jensen away from that persona of his, the guy he tries so hard to be, the guy he wants his father to see, and the result of Misha’s influential presence is that Jensen just becomes more like himself. I’m just guessing here (call it an informed guess, maybe) but it must feel like such a relief for him, to finally just laugh at the things he wants to laugh at, and not constantly have to think about how to control himself and how to school his expressions and his postures so nobody sees the part of Jensen that he thinks is shameful. He’s acting all the freaking time. It’s gotta be exhausting. Misha makes Jensen lose what he doesn’t want to lose - at least not in front of an audience - which in all likelihood makes him uncomfortable and vulnerable - and oh, hey, look:
Jensen: “…he makes me uncomfortable.” (video)
—and yet:
Conclusion: Misha puts a weak spot in Jensen’s heterosexual manly-man armour, and that weak spot is being PRODDED, STROKED and LICKED ON OCCASION.
Also, bless those people with cameras pointed at Misha and Jensen. May your batteries never die and your memory cards always have enough space to record the majestic trainwreck of Jensen’s put-upon exterior.
this is my favorite cockles post of all time
