When your bro-pal talks about his feelings towards you while confessing to a Father for the first time ever

When your bro-pal gets a boner the second you get cleaned up after dirty Purgatory

When your bro-pal looks at you a certain way so you confess that you are attracted to them

When your bro-pal mentions two gay and married muppets and tells you he wont let you die a virgin and basically offers himself but changes his mind later

When your bro-pal is happy to finally find you in Purgatory after a year of searching for you and has to touch your face

When your bro-pal mentions your favorite Cowboy movie and uses the same voice as your favorite characters’ and you have to swallow hard and close your eyes and lick your lips to get over the thirst for him

and finally

when your own brother sees you happier than ever after your bro-pal came back from the dead and mentions this to you and you brush it off as if it were nothing but he knows it’s more than platonic at this point then you know it’s a

Definitely not a bromance

Well, it was done. Supernatural was over. The last slate cracked down. The last piece of his yellow tape was scraped off the floor. 

It was over.

Misha Collins was free.

2020

He took the rest of that year off, naturally. Those 28 days of filming per year? The mileage they had put on him, on his spirit? He needed rest. 

As soon as he’d gone through his morning ritual of making coffee in the French press and then forgetting he had made it and then pretending he hadn’t just dumped it down the sink, he sat down at his computer for the first order of business. The first thing he did every morning.

He checked his Twitter mentions.

M33shm33gos: .@ MishaCollins choke me daDDY//

Like clockwork. So reassuring. M33shm33gos was always there for him.

MINIONS CHORUS: I’d say @ MishaCollins deserves a little downtime after that! He needs some space… to plot his next move. To wipe away the stink of Supernatural to rise like a phoenix from the ashes. TO SHOW PEOPLE WHAT HE CAN DO WHEN HE’S GIVEN A GOOD STORY.

Misha’s finger hovered over the button, over that empty heart under the tweet. Would he do it? Would he bring light to this young person’s day by liking their tweet, by letting them know that he cared that they cared that he cared?

“No,” he said firmly to himself. “Hold back. Be mysterious.”

Have I said that? I think he thinks the same of him whether he’s at work or not. I think they’re work friends, which means they get along at work and work well together, but when has Jensen ever hung out with Misha that wasn’t part of work? The boat trip was PR for the TCA, the ice cream trip was part of the boat trip, and generally everyone’s invited to the occasional group dinners on con weekends. And Jensen takes every opportunity to make jokes at Misha’s expense. That’s not love. Even his birthday post, while effusive at first glance, was actually rather ‘dude bro’ (the wording) and impersonal (the use of a poor quality pic he found on google that was from a work event). If he loves Misha so much, where are the personal photos of them hanging out? Why didn’t he use one of those? He did for Jared’s birthday. Maybe because he doesn’t have any, and maybe because the purpose of the birthday post was to distract the hateful minionswithout rewarding them and get them to stop attacking Jared, which it did. Sorry anon, but that’s not love. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Here’s a question for you, anon, if that’s what you believe, why do you need my validation or care what I believe about the subject?

You’re going to pull a muscle with that reaching, lamb.

J2M has a sleepover during season 12 finale. J2M and Darius had plans to travel together between Asylum and JIB (and Misha later invited Adam while at Asylum to join them). Jensen and Misha had a solo dinner in Rome where Jensen was talking to him about coming to visit the brewery.

The Supernatural DVDs have been released early in Australia and clips of the gagreel have been shared on twitter. I found the opening credits roll quite interesting and enlightening. As far as I recall, Misha has always been third when they had credits, but this time he’s fifth. Out of nine.

In order (plus number of appearances in S13):

Jared Padalecki (23)

Jensen Ackles (23)

Alex Calvert (14)

Mark Pellegrino (9)

Misha Collins (15)

Kim Rhodes (3)

David Hadyn-Jones (5)

Richard Speight Jr. (6)

Samantha Smith (8)

This (and Mark Sheppard’s post S13 comments) confirms to me that, despite the insistence of his cult minions, Misha was not a regular in S13. Supernatural has always only been able to afford two regulars at a time and tptb obviously needed to ensure Alex’s and Mark’s availability for the essential impact of their characters on the season arc. But not Misha’s.

“Supernatural has always only been able to afford two regulars at a time”

hands

Watch the actual gifs, not the zoom. Jensen’s hand is on the back of the chair. Jared moves to put his hand on the back of the chair behind the woman, accidentally makes contact. Moves Jensen’s hand away while looking down with a confused puppy face. Jensen looks down in mock-offense, and.. that is it.

bonus:

DO NOT REPOST WITHOUT ASKING/CREDIT.

J: “Can we take another one looking down like we are mourning?”

My Jensen-Misha photo from jibcon8 this morning. I posted this already from the @fandomnatural account I was livetweeting from but thought I would stick it here too. As soon as I can scan a high res version I will do that too.

Background: All I said was, mostly speaking to Jensen, “Given the events of the finale, could you [JA] just give this guy [MC] a hug?” I added to clarify “Like you just got your best friend back.” I didn’t say anything about expressions or how to stand. I actually had been picturing more just a big ol’ happy smooshy hug w both of them smiling, but what they actually did blew me away. What was interesting was seeing them both silently settle on the pose & expression in almost slow motion, like they were both thinking about it. Jensen kept adjusting his face & head angle. That tragic sad frown appeared kinda like he clicked it on, and he then literally adjusted it twice, like “This frown? This one? No, this one,” and his head also started dropping down, and meanwhile Misha was like slowly tilting his head against Jensen’s (which I also had not asked for) and arranging his face into that incredibly touching mournful/resigned look. Misha kept looking at the camera but in Jensen’s final adjustment he dropped his eyes. (Good lord these guys are pros.)

I wish for this ✨

I’m not spending enough time being present and attentive to my children.  I’m trying to be better.
