Love. Fight.

Jared & Jensen. Forever and ever.

[not-a-perfect-metaphor]

This has 3 parts, all Wincest related. I hope that’s okay! Just ignore if it’s not. 1: what is the poet or poem about gay lovers that Kripke said inspired the characters of Sam and Dean? 2: do you remember during early seasons when an interviewer toured the SPN set and saw J2 acting out something Wincesty? Is that article still somewhere? 3: what was the thing where either Jared or Jensen was talking about buying a Wincest phone case? Sorry to bombard you!! Thank you so much.

My answer to this is so WOEFULLY delayed, and I’m very sorry for that. But what an exciting little bundle of things to discuss 😏.

Starting with your #1:

Mmmhm. I call him Captain Kripke.

Which is (of course) because he is THE captain of our Wincest ship.

You know what I’m reminded of now?

The sexy Wincesty little snippet from one of Kripke’s original script drafts for SPN’s pilot.

Let’s add it to this post, shall we?

Aha. Here it is.

What a gem:

———

———

What was it Kripke said…something about his particular thematic being tight relationships between brothers with a homoerotic subtext?

Uh-huh. Yep. Sounds about right, captain.

He sure did luck out landing young Jensen and young Jared specifically for Sam and Dean, though, didn’t he?

Because boyyyyy did they ever rise to that homoerotic task from minute number one! 😏🏳️‍🌈

Which leads me into your #2:

I’m assuming that you must be referring to this spectacular bit of journalism, eh?

Honestly, though, this easily could have happened multiple times.

I’ll dig back through my ancient scrolls to refresh my memory.

To clarify, I mean the reporter + article part of it could have happened multiple times.

Because I think we ALL know that Jared and Jensen getting sucked into spontaneous Wincesty ad-libs together surely happened literally every single day of filming.

-airing promos like this fuckin’ left and right…

I mean…

Lol.

Alrighty then.

———————

To your #3! The phone case discussion.

There have actually been a few naughty phone case conversations by now, but I think this one is the most well known.

Plus, it specifically does involve Jensen buying the phone case (your wording), so hopefully I hit the mark!

Jared: “There’s a phone case that Jensen bought of Sam and Dean in a ‘compromising’ position…”

Aisha: “Sweet.”

Jared: “It was my birthday yesterday. He did it as a birthday present for me. He put it on the back of my phone and was like ‘hey man, someone texted you…’”

^^ umm…excuse you BOTH, sirs.

[not-a-perfect-metaphor]

If people don’t quit pestering Jensen at cons with Destiel nonsense, I’m going to lose my shit 😒.

I mean, go for it, I guess…but know that I’m coming for you.

[not-a-perfect-metaphor]

Today we’re talking about Jared’s amazing inability to censor himself when he’s with Jensen. And likewise we’re also showcasing Jensen’s epic reactions during those moments. 😘

Number 1 (our favorite)-

Jensen: “I went in [the hole] pretty quick-”

Jared: “Like you always do.”

OOPS FACE 😂

Followed by…

THIS NONVERBAL CONVERSATION BETWEEN THE JS THAT IS THE MOST UNSUBTLE THING IN EXISTENCE:

Number 2-

Jensen (about Vaseline): “You never know when you might need to get out of a tight situation.”

Jared: “-or into a tight…” *AHEM* (ass)

Jensen:

^ that tiiiiny little smirk right at the end, hehe

Number 3-

(more holes!)

Jensen: *talks about going in the hole*

Jared: *has too many vivid imaginings to be able to control himself*

Jensen: *SMIRKS AND NODS AND STARES SEXILY AT JARED*

EXCUSE YOU BOTH, SIRS…

Number 4-

Jared (leaning in to insinuate this directly into Jensen’s ear): “Sam would definitely be a tight end…” tehehe giggle giggle flirt flirt

Followed by-

Jensen: *tries SO HARD not to react and fails miserably, much to Jared’s dirty delight*

Number 5-

Jared (about Jensen): “He only bites once or twice…” smirky smirky flirty

Jensen (who definitely bites a lot more than that, and we all know it):

Number 6-

Jared: *reveals the fact that he sleeps naked*

Jensen: *tries to act like this is new information to him*

Jared: *ruins that immediately by calling Jensen out on his bullshit*

“You knew that!”

Jensen:

(also Jensen: listen…I try, okay? But what the hell can I do when he’s just out here telling the whole world that I know he sleeps in the nude?? And it’s definitely NOT because I make him sleep like that, okay? He is his own man. So just…shhhh…)

Number 7-

Jensen: *while trying to talk about props inside pants* “-and there was this huge-”

Jared: *instantaneously loses all chill*

(also Jared: the fatal error, Jensen, just so you know, was that while the topic was the inside of your pants, you chose to then bring up the huuuuge thing inside your pants…and don’t you know by now that I cannot publicly handle that kind of mental image?? So…this was your fault…)

Jensen (who definitely knows exactly what he did and loves every second of it): *MORE BLATANT SMIRKING AND STARING AND FLIRTING AND NECESSARY TOUCHING*

OH MY GOD YOU TWO, WHAT ON EARTH?? 🤣

[loversofthegrave]

the fact baby sammy had to grow up with this dean winchester being his entire central vision for all of his very crucial fundamental teenage years and who looked after him, made him breakfast, took him to school, probably re-enacted sammy's school drama plays with him. my god

[codependeancy]

when they say "doomed by the narrative" this was THE narrative that doomed sammy bc imagine having a greek god green-eyed achilles for a brother who'll go absolutely batshit crazy whenever he can't feed you from his mouth like a motherbird??? no college was ever going to fix sam, poor dude never stood a chance at being normal

[not-a-perfect-metaphor]

“You two have the most tangled up, unhealthy, crazy thing I’ve ever seen.”

“-psychotically, irrationally, erotically codependent on each other.”

Best. Dynamic.

[not-a-perfect-metaphor]

Holy shit I just randomly stumbled across this one again.

Remember when Jared got super pissed at Misha backstage (coincidentally after Misha was gross with Jensen during their panel)? Jib-2014

There was so much drama surrounding this when it happened (mainly via the Misha folk). To all normal people, Jared’s body language and anger is VERY clear, and there’s no misinterpreting it. He managed to pull himself out of it, but barely.

I love that Jensen just strolls by pretending like it’s not even happening.

[not-a-perfect-metaphor]

You know what I was just thinking about?

How Jensen and Jared used to print off Wincest fanfics and hang them up on set, and then also they would send them to Jeffrey Dean Morgan. But like I SO BADLY want to know which stories specifically and what was happening in them. And can you imagine being an author and knowing that your porny Wincest fic was passed around between Jensen and Jared and Jeff? I’m here to remind you that there’s a chance it really, ACTUALLY was.

[wincestendgame]

Wait is that Cas? no, that's Sammy

Posts that never fail to make me laugh

[not-a-perfect-metaphor]

I think I understand the problem, now.

[not-a-perfect-metaphor]

You know what I was just remembering? When Jensen, at a meet and greet, was reading texts he’d gotten from Jared out loud (because of course he was), and then he accidentally read that one from the hotel like the night before where Jared had texted him that he could “go for a drink and a handy.” 👀 LOL WHATTTTTT. When was that? Someone’s gotta help me remember the date. I love that so much. How do you even recover from that afterwards if you’re Jensen? You don’t, really 😘.

Edit: Nashville 2017

[not-a-perfect-metaphor]

Was binge-watching con panels from the past few years, and I noticed a fun tidbit for the tinhat crowd. Jensen, Nash con 2022 main panel, 51 min in: picks Harry Styles as the celebrity he'd trade spots with for a day, and talks about going to his concert recently. Jared, Indianapolis con 2024 main panel, 44-46 min in: when asked who his wife fangirls over, says his wife is "more into music" and likes Harry Styles (and Shawn Mendes).

AHHHH, yes!

The thing they do where one of them tells a story/states a fact about their wife, and it turns out to actually be a story/fact about the other J.

I love this so much, and it’s happened on quite a few occasions…some of them very blatant, others much less so (and everything in between).

Let’s go over a few of them that immediately pop into my head.

But, people, ADD TO MY LIST!! and I will update this post several times, I’m sure.

1- Jared jokingly quipping about having to keep his ‘wife’ away from Matt Bomer while they were all at the PCAs together, but then it turned out that it was Jensen talking to Matt, not Genevieve (plus, Matt is also gay…just as an aside).

2- The most well-known of these particular moments is without a doubt Jared telling a story during one convention (Jaxcon) that involved being out to dinner with his wife in Italy and then Jensen telling the exact same story at a different convention (Asylum), but in his version, he was the one who had been out to dinner with Jared.

Oopsies.

And then this next one isn’t quite the same thing…but it FOR SURE still belongs here.

3-

And there’s a whole other category of Jared-isms revolving around “Jen” vs. “Gen,” although I feel like that should have its own post since there’s SO MUCH.

And there’s even another category of Jensen-isms where he completely avoids pronouns/names/etc. while talking about certain things (like, noticeably avoids).

We’ll have to delve into all of that in the very near future.

[not-a-perfect-metaphor]

Just in case anyone was laboring under the delusion that this moment-

-was just a well timed shot of an accidental position that the Js then quickly corrected...

Nope. No it was not.

[not-a-perfect-metaphor]

Someone posted the other day about these types of moments, the ones where Jensen backs right up behind Jared (or Jared backs his ass into Jensen), and HERE’S THIS NECESSARY ADDITION (because…obviously). But now I’ve lost the other post 😂. I know for a fact one of you has it up your sleeve and will tag me in it.

[not-a-perfect-metaphor]

You know, I see a lot of people referencing the line (from Jensen, about Jared): “I love when he finishes my sentence before I even start my sentence.”

But…not a lot of people seem to focus on what led up to that, which makes the entire thing so much better.

To get you up to speed, this was one of the trillions of little conversations between the two of them that ended up devolving into double entendres about dicks.

The surface level item in the discussion was boats and more specifically a genie giving Jensen a bigger boat. ‘Bigger than what?’ ‘Bigger than yours.’ With lots of giggle giggle flirt flirt.

Followed by-

Jared: “Where are you going to put it?”

Jared (answering himself): “I’ll tell you where you can put it…” 😉😏

And finally-

Jensen: “I love when he finishes my sentence before I even start my sentence.”

These two. I swear…

[not-a-perfect-metaphor]

❤️ Honey, Babe

[not-a-perfect-metaphor]

Someone just liked this post so I was able to relive it, and…guys…can we real-talk here for a second?

The calling each other babe and baby and hun (etc. etc. & actually I have a pet-names/nicknames post floating around with ALL of them), but…HOW HUSBANDLY IS THIS BEHAVIOR??

This is pure husbanding to the 10th power, is it not?

[not-a-perfect-metaphor]

A two-decades-of-the-Js highlight reel set to what I’ve always considered to be the perfect song for them-

Stand By You

(Rachel Platten)

“Even if we can’t find heaven, I’ll walk through hell with you.”

[wincestmaxxing]

imagine supernatural having an entire episode with the premise of a monster who emulates a victim's deepest/ideal desire/love, and when it preys on dean, it emulates his little brother. imagine, too, that said monster — a siren — tells dean that what he wanted/needed "wasn't some bitch in a g-string"; dean wanted/needed his brother. now you have the fourth season's fourteenth episode, sex and violence.

[not-a-perfect-metaphor]

Jim Parrack (siren actor) literally said this about his approach to the role in relation to the brothers: “[-his character] enjoyed having control over these boys in a sexual way.”

He also then doubled down and referred to the “sexual tension.”

A sexual way. Sexual tension.

I don’t think that it could have been any more blatant…

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

———————

Not to mention-

And-

[not-a-perfect-metaphor]

Jensen smelling for Jared’s scent on his hat is, like…

-top tier husbanding behavior.

—————

After all…

Jensen: “I’ve been trying to bottle [Jared Padalecki essential oils] for years.”

Also, what else does this remind me of?

Oh yes.

Question: how do they block out each other’s musk?

Jared: “Why would we want to??”

I mean…yep.

[not-a-perfect-metaphor]

Jensen filming his boy’s hot stripper moves -

[not-a-perfect-metaphor]

So, one of my most-recent posts referenced this suuuuper platonic (😉) moment:

But then remember how right after that happened, someone yelled for Jared to say it out loud (probably feeling very curious, as one would be, about what whispered little words might have accompanied such blatant, sexy neck stroking).

*ahem*

Here, we have a prime example of the ‘oops’ face, a classic Jared-ian move…while Jensen just looks like he knows full-well what everyone is thinking…but, I mean…mehhh…they can’t prove anything, right?

So nooooo worries! 😘
