THIRST AID KIT | S2E09 | KISSING SEBASTIAN STAN
Look, we just wanna [REDACTED] Sebastian Stan all day long. And thrice on Sundays.
In this episode, we talk about Sebastian Stan, the man with a big lust footprint, which is to say that he leaves a mark on you, and you may accidentally catch some detritus in the magnetic sweep of his all-consuming sex appeal… Gather round, thirst-buckets, and let us take you on a journey that will traverse the source of Seb’s undeniable desirability.
Between fits of lustful giggling, we came up with some theories.
Is it his pretty hot douchebag face that he can mold into either something blank and Ken-like or tearful high emotion?
Is it the way he gets all up in your space, TalkingRealClose, right up till the point of actual contact?
Is it his hair, which works at both athlete-short or Bucky-long lengths?
Or is it that sinful bottom lip (see the gif above), aka the one that makes us look up the recipe for traditional Romanian sarmale?
Looking for the answer to what dat mouf do? we found an answer of sorts, via a compilation fanvid. See if you can pick a fave liplock (there are so many!):
Now let’s go back to another excellent weapon in his arsenal — that pretty, wilfully blank douchebag face he has the audacity to carry around all nonchalantly. Here it is, put to perfect use in Logan Lucky:
We also discussed Sebastian’s fairly slim CV to date, but how he really seems to be growing as an artist — from turns in TV shows like Gossip Girl, Kings, Political Animals and Once Upon A Time to gritty and (even more) interesting character studies in movies like I, Tonya via The Bronze and the Marvel movies (where he gives performances that runs the gamut, emotions-wise). But also, look at this murder-strut from Captain America: The Winter Soldier, combined with that waterfall of freshly pressed hair.
HE KNOWS HE’S FABULOUS. (and like Nichole says in the ep, he really does “throw” his thighs out when he walks! 😋)
We also covered Sebastian’s role choices i.e. going for indie work that might pull him away from traditional roles set aside for men who look like him, and how he seems to be this funny guy who is happy to tell jokes and do his work and just be hot in peace. We can fuck with that, Seb.
Listen: it was a very thirsty episode, OK? Gird your loins and secure your wig with extra bobby pins cos Fanfic Wars was A Lot this week. Nichole did a full torso blush, and it was everything!

SOME STUFF TO WATCH AND READ, IF YOU LIKE!
This moment on WWHL when Sebastian seems as confounded as the rest of us at the Tom H/T.Swift… happening (starts around 3:08)
There’s an all-too-brief glimpse of that ‘dick-medal tattoo’ from The Bronze in this fanvid (17 seconds in 👀)
Here he is, playing the Mad Hatter on Once Upon A Time
Please watch the highway fight scene from Captain America: The Winter Soldier in full and marvel at the graceful balletics of the violence.
The motherfucker can really wear a suit, nahmean? (also, all other clothes too). Here’s the 2014 Paul Newman shoot Nichole mentioned. And let us never forget his services to humanity via GQ Romania.
This inexplicable red carpet interview between him and co-star Anthony Mackie, where he talks about how important it is to keep thighs fit and strong (!). Starts round the 30-second mark. 👀
