J2 Tinhat Timeline

2016

For the timeline from 2017 or for any of the years from 2015 to 2022 once they’re all posted, search my page for “timeline.”

Note: again, the content within each year is not yet listed chronologically, and sadly I can only include a small handful of photos and GIFs due to limited image space, but if you’d like the visual counterparts for anything, just message me!

No year is even close to being a fully comprehensive collection yet, but I’ll be updating each post over time to get as close to that as I can!

—————————

February 27th:

Jared spends his anniversary (as in his faux anniversary, the anniversary of his marriage to Genevieve) out with Jensen.

March 11th:

The Js are spotted out in Austin date-night-ing it up at the Gleason (documentary) debut.

September:

Rogue Magazine publishes some interesting photos of the Js on either side of a door (a closet door, even? perhaps?)-

Either way, their body language is certainly something to talk about…

November 11th:

The Js have a wild night out together at a Kaleo concert and then at San Jac Saloon.

(GIF/photo set courtesy of out-in-the-open)

November 30th:

The Js are each other’s date to Mark Shepard’s wedding! 😍❤️

Saturn Awards, Cassidy Gard interview:

While chatting about J2’s “bromance,” Cassidy comments that it seems like the two of them definitely have a good time together.

Jensen smiles, averts his eyes, and responds with, “we…probably have too much of a good time.”

Atlantacon:

The Js serenade each other on the keyboard. Jared plays ‘Right Here Waiting’ for Jensen, and Jensen plays ‘Everything I Do, I Do it For You’ for Jared.

Also-

A trans fan speaks to the Js about finding the courage to transition.

Jared: “I know what it’s like to have to keep a secret and not be who you are.”

Jaxcon:

Jared tells a story about being out to dinner in Rome with Genevieve and accidentally flipping off the waiter. (see 2016 asylum directly below for significance)

Asylum:

Jensen tells the exact same story above about being at a restaurant in Rome and Jared accidentally flipping off the waiter, except JENSEN was the one who was with Jared in Jensen’s re-telling.

*note: this is just one of many moments all supporting the fact that when the Js talk about their wives, they are often actually speaking about each other.

Purple rain:

Jared forgets that he and Jensen are visible from behind and blatantly (really, really blatantly) spends some time massaging Jensen’s upper arm and shoulder in a not-at-all platonic way.

*notable as one of those extra special J2 things that has singlehandedly (as a stand-alone moment) convinced a significant number of now-tinhats that Jared and Jensen are not platonic with each other.

Jib, closing ceremony:

Jensen refers to Jared and Genevieve’s marriage while air quoting the word “married.”

He also pulls Jared fiercely into a full body embrace that has gone on to become one of the most well-known and most frequently talked about J2 moments.

Seacon:

The Js again discuss the first real fight they had, and Jared says, “That happens in any relationship, whether it’s friends, boyfriend-girlfriend, boyfriend-boyfriend, it gets tested, and that’s when you find out whether or not it’s worth it to you.” (parallel to 2017 minncon)

*note: although Jared included “friends” in this list of relationships, he also threw in “boyfriend-boyfriend,” so…

Also-

Jensen says (about himself and Jared), “Early on, we found out that we were better together, the two of us, than we were separate.”

Also-

Jared refers to Jensen as his partner, something they both have done on multiple occasions-

Jared: “I’m going to ask what my partner’s favorite part is, or the first thing that comes to his mind for every season.”

Chicon:

Jared says this super significant thing about the industry-

“I’ve had a lot of joy and a lot of pain being in the public eye. (…) You don’t have to be on TV to be acting.”

Houscon:

Jared goes without his wedding ring on Valentines Day.

Also-

Jensen says, about himself and Jared, “We were made for each other.”

Also-

Richard Speight seems to nearly slip up and say something that he ends up realizing mid-sentence he can’t say while a camera is present-

Richard (to Jared, about a Valentines card he’s working on that Jensen has just dumped glitter all over): “This was good until your-...this was good until HE dumped glitter all over it.”

Vegascon:

Jensen gives a long, thoughtful, completely gender-neutral response about finding the one in which he uses words like “partner” and “teammate” that he has previously used on numerous occasions (and will use many times again after this) to describe Jared/his relationship with Jared.

(on two different ways of ‘finding the one’) “-you just know with an absolute and have a certainty, like this is the one for me, unequivocally. And there’s those who are…I don’t know…I’m scared, but I’m willing to take that leap of faith with you, and I found myself somewhere in between both of those. It’s a scary endeavor that certainly has its ups and downs, but it’s a bond, and it’s a connection, and it’s a friendship, and it’s a ride, and it’s a journey…that if you’re willing to stick it out together is an amazing, beautiful thing. And…I’m so glad I picked the partner, the teammate, that I did.”

Also-

Jensen (about Jared): “He calls me and he’s like ‘hey, babe.’” (revealing the fact that Jared calls him ‘babe’)

*note: the ‘babe’/‘baby’ thing is not an isolated incident, either…

Burcon:

Jensen offers his sleeve for Jared to wipe his nose on, which may not sound like much on the surface but which is, in reality, incredibly indicative of an extremely deep level of intimacy and trust between the two of them.

Torcon:

Jared reminisces about the (super romantic) Stanley Park lunch date he and Jensen shared together way back when they were filming Wendigo and falling for each other-

Jared: “[Jensen] said, ‘there’s a cool spot over here if you want to come eat,’ and I was like ‘alright.’ So we grabbed our lunches and sat on the sea wall.”

Jensen: “It was a Taster’s Choice moment.”

(note: after doing some research and receiving input from a local, I learned that Stanley Park is well-known for being a couple’s spot, for being a place you take a date)

Message from Supernaturalwinter: “I’m from Vancouver - ya you don’t go to Stanley Park for lunch unless it’s as a date (or you’re with a big group of friends and you’ve planned a picnic, also the only places to eat around Stanley Park are ‘couples spots’), like you go for lunch and it’s a date.”

DCcon:

Another ‘partner’ moment (Jensen to Jared)-

“When you have a partner you’ve been dancing with for that long…”

Also-

Jared opens up a bit about his (many) struggles with the industry-

“Like…the industry has been pretty difficult for me believe it or not.”

J2 Tinhat Timeline

Based on the one I created here long ago but separated into individual years this time around (from 2015 to present).

Please PLEASE comment/message me/etc. with any moments you think should be included!

I’m starting out of order (for no particular reason) with:

2017 -

*note: content within each year is not yet listed chronologically

Minncon:

Jared equates obstacles/fights he and Jensen have dealt with in their relationship to obstacles/fights that married couples + romantic partners deal with.

(parallel to seacon 2016, once that year has been added)

Jensen (on his relationship with Jared): “I think the first time the idea hit me that this was going to be a really solid relationship was the first time we got into a fight.”

Jared: “-when you see something tested...when someone is fighting with their boyfriend or girlfriend or husband or wife, like you know what? These are the moments you figure out if it’s worth it, because you are going to have struggles, and you are going to have times that suck. Is it worth it to carry on? Do you want to carry on?”

Also-

Jared gestures toward Jensen, saying, “-my spou-, my buddy (...)”

Seacon:

Jared refers to a singular trailer that he and Jensen share (one of many times the Js have done this)-

Jared: “And they’re, like, knocking on our trailer.”

Houscon:

Jared (about himself and Jensen and the time constraints of filming etc.): “We didn’t see our family last week. (…) but that being said, our kids get to see their parents doing something that they love.”

Nolacon:

Jensen talks about household chores and says, referencing himself and Jared during his response, “It is split up. When we’re not there, she handles it. When we come home, she’s like ‘here’s the keys to everything,’” seemingly implying that the Js are in one household together some percentage of the time and that they’re often given their space, just the two of them, when they’re home.

Honcon:

Jared and Jensen wear matching shirts that Jensen both picked out and purchased for them prior to the panel.

*noteworthy because….Jensen dressing Jared = the best thing ever, and also Jared/Jensen matchy match moments = the best thing ever # 2.

Also-

The ‘like you always do’ slip happens during a J2 conversation that Jared can’t help but turn into something dirty (of course 😏).

Jensen: “I went in pretty quick-”

Jared: “-like you always do.”

*extreme oops face courtesy of Jared followed by a significant and lingering look exchanged between both of the Js which ironically is much more so what makes this a tinhatty moment than the actual dirty comment itself.

Nashcon:

Jensen steps forward to intimately massage Jared’s head during an emotional moment-

Pittcon:

Both Jensen and Jared use the word “contract” while talking about kid-planning. Jared talks about needing to be “-specific in the contract.” As in, “-I don’t mean two MORE [kids]. I mean two TOTAL.”

Jensen then refers to his own situation by saying that it was a “-loose contract that apparently held no water.”

Jib:

Jensen intimately embraces Jared while singing “don’t you cry no more” (from Carry on my Wayward Son).

Also-

(@ the Orion concert) Jensen points directly at Jared while singing.

“-let me be your fortress, when the night winds are driving on…be the one to light the way, bring you home.”

AHBL:

Jensen touches his pointer finger to Jared’s hand, which is exactly how he and his ‘wife’ privately say ‘I love you’ to each other according to what Jensen himself publicly shared with us during Vancon-2016.

*note that this is only one well-known example and that there have been many more of these specific finger touches between the Js both before and after AHBL 2017.

DCcon:

Jared (about the Padackles Turks & Caicos vacation): “[Jensen] knows, because we went there as a family.”

Chicon:

Jensen discusses his relationship with Jared using undeniably ‘couple’-y phrases-

“There’s a support system that exists within us for each other. It allows us to create and work hard. It allows us to love. It allows us to be open. I’m very thankful to have that with someone else.”

Also-

Jared: “I don’t think Sam eats a lot of pie.”

Jensen: “No, I would say, yeah, pretty much! I don’t think Jared does either!”

*note: we’re all on the same page when it comes to the whole ‘eating pie’ metaphor (of the, um, sexual variety) are we not?

I think we are.

ComicCon:

The world is forever blessed by this E.W exclusive photo of Jared posing in a very, um…interesting way with Jensen!

SDCC:

The Js take part in a ‘newlyweds’ type game where they demonstrate to the world yet again just how thoroughly they know and understand each other.

Jensen: “Jared is right! It’s beef jerky.”

*note: Misha doesn’t do well…surprise, surprise!

Although, in his defense, he does very accurately summarize the vibe of the whole thing in relation to the J’s answering correctly for each other-

“That’s what true love looks like!”

ACLfest (Austin):

The Js are filmed by Tiffany Resig sharing a romantic little ride in a pedicab (bike taxi) and looking like the most obvious husbands.

June 1st:

Jared posts a picture of him and Jensen out to dinner and captions it “date night.”

October 1:

Jensen poses in front of a mural that says “love is love,” a well known LGBT+ slogan, and then later that same day, Jared poses in front of a mural that says “love will win,” captioning it with “every time.”

August 20th:

A candid clip is filmed of the Js during their down time on set, and the only thing we can all talk about is the blatant lack of any personal space whatsoever between the two of them.
