my favorite screencap from HousCon 2017

-J2 walk out to huge applause from the crowd. They do their typical jump at the end of the introduction song.

-They start off by asking how everyone liked the new episode and thanking all the fans for helping them get renewed for a 13th season!

-Jared and Jensen both say something containing y’all and say that they hope everyone is enjoying the “y’all” drinking game. Both proceed to say y’all about 5 more times.

-The y’all thing reminds Jared of a story. One time he and Genevieve were driving through Amarillo and got pulled over for speeding. Jared and the cop were talking about the ticket and Gen kept making faces at the police officer. After the office left Jared asked Gen what the heck she was doing making faces at a police officer. She responded that she couldn’t understand a single word the cop had been saying because his Texas accent was so thick. Jared said he understood every word.

-Fan asks the boys if they could film anywhere where would it be? Jared responds with a loud TEXAS (the crowd cheers). Then, more seriously, he responds with Austin, his favorite place in the world. Jensen says he would love to film in the Grand Canyon, or any other place with natural beauty in the US, the stuff you can’t fake on a set…

-During one of the questions, Jared says to Jensen, “Hey! We are brothers.” Jensen, acting exasperated responds with, “Actually… we’re not.”

-A fan asks if the show ran for 30 years, would they still want to continue? The boys have fun with the answer. Jared jokes that Jensen will be 80 years old in 30 years and Jensen gives Jared a glare. Jared then asks the crowd if they would still watch the show in 30 years, to which the crowd gives a loud cheer. Jared then answers more seriously. He says whatever life brings them… He’d be up for a movie, or even shorter season in the future (like 4-6 episodes). Jensen says there is no magic number they are trying to reach.

-The same fan asks if they have had any supernatural experiences of their own? Jared talks about a time he was staying in a hotel in Austin. Jensen talks about some stuff that happened last week while they were filming in an old mental hospital. He said right before they were about to role sound an old light fixture in the hospital just fell and shattered all over the floor without anyone touching it. He also talked about how he and Jared convinced the liaison to let them walk around the supposedly haunted 4th floor. The boys went when it was night time so they had to borrow Sam and Dean’s flashlights. The liaison showed them a tiled room she refuses to go into, because it was where they used to do electroshock therapy. Jensen gets excited and walks right into the room and jumps in the tub. He says he has a false sense of security when it comes to the supernatural, because he has been playing Dean for so long.

-Another fan asks J2’s opinions on grapes. Jared says he prefers frozen and green. Jensen says he used to be a green grape man, but now he likes red.

-Fan asks if Sam and Dean came with a warning label what would it be? Jensen says, feed often… or else (for Dean). Jared says, might contain gas, don’t start fire… (for Sam).

-Someone asks what their favorite monster to hunt is? Jared says he enjoyed hunting fairies. Jensen says, good old fashioned ghosts… vampires are too easy. Jared then says, what about zombies? The boys then proceed to act out how easy escaping a zombie would be. Jared is the zombie and is following Jensen around the stage, but Jensen just keeps walking away.

-A fan asks if they could choose a happy ending for Sam, Dean, and Cas what would it be? Jared says he doesn’t think the show will end until the boys both die. Jensen agrees and says it must end tragically.

-Someone asks Jensen if he remembers filming Ten-Inch Hero, and he jokes that no, he forgot about it. The fan continues to ask what was his favorite moment from filming, and didn’t he start dating his wife during filming? He says yes, and that his favorite moment was starting to date his wife.

-A girl asks what advice they have for an aspiring actor? Jensen says to get involved, and to be resilient. Jared talks about how he had thousands of failed audition pages laying around his apartment in LA when he was doing Gilmore Girls. He tells the girl to just remember to remind yourself why you care about acting.

-Fan asks what their favorite moment/ proudest moment with kids has been? Both Js say they could never pick just one. Jensen talks about how last week JJ was over at the Padalecki’s house and she and the boys were playing hide and seek. Tom accidentally smashed her finger in a door and she started crying.  As soon as JJ started crying Tom did too. He kept saying he was sorry to JJ over and over. JJ looked at Tom and said, “It’s ok Tom, I forgive you.”

-Someone asks if Dean would be ok with having Crowley as a hunting partner? Jensen says it reminding him of a Dick Cheney story.

-A woman asks who they would recast in the Avengers if they could? This sparks lots of different answers from both the boys and the audience. Castiel would be Pepper Potts. Crowley would be the Hulk. Sam might be Hawkeye, because he gets beat up a lot. Dean would be Captain America.

-The band comes out and calls for the last question. Jensen heads over to the keyboard and starts playing a soulful/romantic version of the last question song. Jared eventually joins him. Finally, the fan asks the question. What is the ultimate goal for AKF? (Jensen is still playing the soulful keyboard melody). Jared says his goal is to allow young people to keep spreading the love.
