you're impossible.

Hello there! Colin O’Donoghue is my name; eyeliner activism is the game. I’m Irish, based from Drogheda, Ireland now residing in Bayview. I am a thirty-five-year-old actor; you probably know me as Captain Hook on Once Upon a Time. I am a proud father to my three-year-old pirate in training, Evan James, my Labrador-Spaniel baby, Buckley, a little black kitten, Pirate, step-fur-daughter, Ava, and my heart belongs to my ever-so-lovely wife, Jennifer O'Donoghue.

Hi, guys. I’m sure you’ve all noticed the lack of activity on Colin and Eddie lately. There are a couple of reasons for it. My muse for Eddie is awful, and I felt weird dropping him because I’ve picked up a lot and dropped a lot and I wanted to try to stick it out, but it’s just not getting better. I can't be active on one and not at all on the other. Another thing is, my muse for the roleplay seems to be dying. It’s nothing any of you have done, it’s just not like it used to be to me. It’s just one of those things where you feel as though your trial has come to an end. I’m sorry if I sound like an asshole, considering, I’m leaving right in the middle of everything I shouldn’t be leaving in the middle of. 

I have nothing against anyone here, and I absolutely love you all to pieces. You’ve dealt with Colin and I when we were both annoying and weird. When he and Jen were overbearing in their love or total hatred for each other, when they’ve made mistakes. You’ve been a family to both of us and have shown so much support and kindness, in ways I only hope I can show to other people in and out of roleplay. I’ve learned a lot here at Bayview, that I’ll take to the grave with me, and it’ll always be dear to my heart. Thank you guys for impacting my life, and I really am sad to go. Though, I feel as though now is best than later. I hope life treats you all well. I wish you nothing but luck, peace, and happiness. Love always. <3

You are very welcome! I would love to see Hook playing tambourine! it would honestly make my day! Aww, they are always adorable! I hope that one day I will experience that feeling too

[bviewodonoghue-blog]

I think I might like to see something like that myself. Earn a good chuckle. Hook’s old and fat in this upcoming episode next month, I’m sure you’ll enjoy that. He’s quite a riot. I’m sure you will, darling!

zayn is perfect, i mean for both girls and boys. totally go for it, i say. and oh my god that cake sounds so delicious… now i wish i had cake. are we allowed to eat cake just because we like cake?

Gender-neutral name, yeah? Gender specific names are so 1970′s. It was good! Maybe Jen will make you one if you ask her nice enough. Of course, you don’t need a reason to. Unfortunately, I do because my metabolism isn't as fast as what it used to be.

How come, man? Is it not doing so well lately? I’m gonna need to start watching it now I’ll have plenty of time on my hands. My misbehaviour is kind of making me hate myself at the moment, but I’m sure my mom will take it upon herself to whip me into shape now. Exciting stuff! Do you have a preference on the gender? ( Don’t worry, I wont tell Jen ).

Just not as into it anymore and I don’t think they’re putting as much effort into it as what they used to. It’s a tricky thing to explain. The show is really good, I enjoyed it a lot up until 5B. Don’t let my opinion discourage you. I’m probably one of the only ones who feel this way. What have you been up to, to make you feel that way? Mum’s are good at doing that. Oh, Jen knew before we were even together. Nothing to worry about there! Ha. Since I have Evan, not you, Evan but Evan - I really want to experience a little girl. Jen seems on board with it, so we’re hoping that’s what we get.

You’re very welcome - did you have a good day, aside from the ultra exciting news? Wait, ‘them’? As in more than one?? Musical episodes have a tendency to end up being my favorite, so I am looking forward to that too - do you actually get to sing lead on anything or do you know yet?

I did, today was very action-packed. I don’t know how I’m still awake. No, there is just one! Ha. We don’t know the gender yet, and I hate referring to my baby, or really any other living thing, as it. Yeah, we literally just confirmed today it is happening. The songs are pretty much done, we haven’t gotten in and recorded them yet. But they’re gonna give me something. Maybe Jen and I will get a duet as well. It’s going underway, not all the details are out yet.

butlergerry:

Oh, please! You obviously are, if you’ve got fans who think that you are, don’t put yourself down like that, mate. I have not, but I’ve heard a lot of good things about it, so maybe pitch that idea to the heads and see if they roll along with it? Maybe it’ll end up being even better. I’m sure, but hey, now you’ve got the time to prepare – didn’t the two of you just move into a new place together, too?

Yeah, but does anyone like to listen to themselves sing? How do you feel about the whole Phantom of the Opera singing thing? Jen’s got a lovely voice, and even she’s on the fence about how she sounds. I’m not even sure what’s going on. They mentioned it, and we haven’t heard anything since. I’m just expecting to get a bunch of scores in the mail and shit. We do, we can’t believe she’s already six weeks along. We did, yes. Almost a month ago.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, COLIN!!

[ @bviewodonoghue ]

I hope you had a great day and I still made it in time without looking like a terrible friend. But congratulations on the baby and for making it another year! Don’t go too crazy with the ‘open bar’- but if you do, have your hangover kit handy! Thank you for being an amazing friend and for being one of the first ones that I hung out when I first arrived to town. 

xoxo, Lizzie

Happy birthday, Colin! Turning one year old is never a bad thing — you just gained more wisdom. On the bright side of that musical episode, however, at least there’s the invention of auto tune and ghost singers? And vocal coaches, too. I’m sure they won’t be throwing you to the wolves. Congratulations on the little one arriving in the spring, I bet you’re both over the moon! 

Thank you! As you get older, you don’t really care for birthdays. You gain wisdom, that and pain, ‘cause you’re not so young anymore. There is, but they won’t let me do that. Unfortunately. I had a band, and I sang in a movie of mine. I’m not big on my singing voice but everyone else is, so it’s just something I have to get used to. We are, we’re very excited about it, thank you!

kellyminks:

Happy belated birthday! Sending prayers for the musical; will you have to sing in it? Dance? Either way, I’m sure you’ll nail it. But, most of all, congrats to you and Jen on the news! Super exciting! 

Thank you! I’ll definitely need the prayers. Sing definitely, dance, I have no idea. Either way, I’m loathing it. Thank you, again. It is the best news, we’re absolutely over the moon.

jaytotheush:

You’re welcome, Colin. The two of you have a whole town supporting you from now to the end of time. You know, that’s going to be one brilliant kid whatever they decide to do with their life.

Well, thank you very much for saying that, Jenna. That means a lot to me. We’ll try our best to raise them into the best person they can be. I have faith in that much. Evan is turning out to be a wonderful boy.

mcjamesavoy:

I was just making you had your priorities right on the eve of your second go at fatherhood, that’s all.

Yes, I have them straight. I appreciate you for caring. I assure you that you won’t be disappointed.

gustygrants:

Congrats, man! And belated happy birthday, sir! Musical episodes aren’t that bad. Just have fun with it. It’s supposed to be goofy and crazy, trust me. And I’m sure with your show it’ll be pretty fun too! But congrats too, on the big news, that’s pretty awesome, man! I hope you’re enjoying your weekend.

Thank you, and thank you again. But they’re going to make me do stuff, Grant. I don’t want to do stuff. It probably will be fun, but I don’t think it’ll help our ratings at all. That’s my concern, the show isn’t doing too good at this point as is, it’ll probably make the ratings worse. I heard a lot of good things about The Flash, and your love interest, Iris. My mates are obsessed with it. I’ll have to check it out when I get a minute. Thank you! I am, yeah. We’re having a great time.

Happy birthday - I’m late, aren’t I? Happy belated birthday! And obviously, congratulations, that’s amazing news - the baby that is, not the musical episode. Although that is exciting too, just not as exciting as a baby! No wonder you’re feeling so over the moon!

Not too late, my birthday was on the 26th. Either way, thank you. It means a lot to me. We’re very excited about the baby, we can hardly wait to have them. No, the episode doesn’t even hold a candle to the news of the baby. We’re over the moon, absolutely. It would take a lot to bring us back to earth.

mindsofmaliks:

also want to say that… zayn is a good name, you know. just putting that out there. did you have a great cake? did it have lots and lots of layers of frosting?

Zayn is a good name, I’m hoping for a girl, honestly. She’d had to be Zanie or something. I’m not sure how Jen would feel about that. I did, I had a very good cake. Jen made a funfetti from scratch. The icing was very good, it was a turquoise color.

elisabetholsan:

Is that you’re way of turning my offer down but in a polite way? Because I get the feeling that it is! That’s okay, I’ll save the singing another time. I feel like almost every show has had a musical episode. So it’s about time you guys made one. Let me know when it is! Oh wow. Is she dealing with morning sickness now? I hear from Kesha that it’s not so pretty. 

It’s my way of me trying to save myself from being embarrassed. I always feel weird when people sing to me. I’m weird in general, I’m weird if I get the slightest bit of focus. Don’t take it any specific way, it’s just me being me. I think a lot of shows do, I’m just never heard much positivity about them, which makes me anxious. If we do, I haven’t heard anything new yet. I haven’t seen her get sick yet. She has a lot of nausea, though.

evanpxtrs:

What sorta friend would I be if I didn’t? How did your birthday go, anyway? Do anything special for it? It’s tricky, because musical episodes do have a tendency to turn a series into a bit of a joke, but if it’s done right I’m sure it’ll be fine. And I personally hope they give you a rendition of a Britney song to do, just for my own amusement. I’m always misbehaving, but aren’t the troubled children the ones that people hold in their heart and want to “fix”? That’s exciting stuff. When’s she due?

It went well, thanks. Just spent it with Jen, nothing special. Once you hit a certain age, you kind of loathe birthdays. I think the show is kind of a joke on its own, just based on how it’s going. I don’t think a musical episode will help that, which is why I’m against it. I feel like it would be original music. I don’t think they’d want to put much effort into gaining those rights. Your misbehavior is what makes you my favorite, odd enough. I wonder how many success stories there are about parents trying to fix their children. She’s due late April.
