#like. yeah I am kind of talking about their soulmate-ism but also that kind of doesn't matter here?

For me, the whole thing about Pete writing about Patrick/is Patrick really that oblivious is this.
I write about my friends so much. Especially if, for whatever reason, I have latched onto one of them in particular and they're kind of my touchstone for a minute. There are so many pages of my journals that have a lowkey embarrassing amount of space dedicated to maybe-love poems maybe-odes to my friends cause I love them and they keep me sane and I like to think that they love me too. We're building lives together, after all. Yeah we're young but we're starting the rest of our lives.
And that's where Pete was at when he met Patrick. And yeah, sure, Pete's probably not writing about himself all the time when he writes lyrics. But we've also seen how often his blog posts are used for lyrics. So the line between writing for songs and writing for himself/the internet? Undefined. We'll probably never know where it is, and that's fine, but it seems to suggest to me that at least some of the time, the lyrics are in fact Pete writing about himself and people he knows. Cause that's how writing goes! Even if you're not trying to write about yourself, little bits and pieces are still going to slip in.
So then let's say you're Patrick. You're also young and on the verge of starting the rest of your life, and suddenly you're the mouthpiece for the voice of a generation. Okay. Insane. And maybe sometimes you do look at these words, and because we can all be a little self-centered sometimes, maybe you think, "Wait. Wait is he talking about me. He can't be, right? But like. Is he?" But you never bring it up, you don't want to risk ruining whatever this precious dynamic is, and you're young and kind of insecure and you... really don't want to touch that with a ten foot pole. Even if you are curious.
But then the hiatus happens. And suddenly Patrick is his own mouthpiece. Writing and singing his own words for once. And maybe he writes about Pete- whether those words make it into Soul Punk or not- and maybe he writes about Andy and Joe and everyone else that has defined the better part of his life.
And you're like oh. That's just how it is. Sometimes you write about the people you love.

hihi norlestappen
SPOILERS below the rose line for "as we break everything inside these hotel walls"
🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
ngl, "made you look" has been playing on loop on my mind for a while now so seeing the word Gucci played it again
"everyone knows they’re forever stuck in the honeymoon phase – but it feels a different kind of good to be in the middle of them." <- lando's the chosen one. only he gets to be in a lestappen sandwich
"It paints images for him and shows him what it could be like to be in between Max and Charles in a different way." <- me too, lando
oh my, even with just two paragraphs, i'm kinda curious w the lore u used for the tentacles (this version is new, everything i've read before are set in fantasy/sci-fi worlds). are they bought from sex stores? are there any regulation in selling and buying them as they're alive, and thus there may be issues regarding their population? why am i even thinking about this
OH MY GOD LANDO'S ACTIVE IMAGINATION. NOT THE TIME. NOT THE TIME!!
“- And Lando Norris! The next generation of the sport, as some have said. They gave us an amazing show this year, with a three-way battle for the championship; giving Ferrari, Red Bull, and McLaren what they could only wish for. Please give them a warm welcome!” <- 🥺🥺 ferrari and mclaren, get your shits together please please i'm begging
"He and Charles have always had their suspicions. Or well, less of a suspicion and more of an idea that Lando would not be saying no if they would finally ask him to join them for a night together." <- trust these two to be kinky bastards. don't worry lando, they'll love your gifts
LANDO IS SO OMEGA-CODED FR
this reminds me that i still have friendship bracelets to make
do the tentacles' features differ depending on species? earlier, it was mentioned that some species are better for temp play, then charles' vibrates. also, do some species prefer to penetrate or suck?
OH GOD ABSOLUTELY DO NOT ANSWER THOSE QUESTIONS. THEYRE ALL HYPOTHETICAL AND I DO NOT NEED TO KNOW MORE
it's kinda cool tho that they're activated through proximity, gives it a kind of soulmate-ism vibes
"something dark in Charles take over" <- DOM!CHARLES my beloved!!! i'm punching the wall and pacing all over the room, i'm winning with dom!charles
holy shit! that's tentacle porn done right!!
girl, you can't see but i'm giving you a standing ovation and i'm kissing your brain (if you consent). gods they're all so debauched in their model clothes in that stall. every top 3 should have a party of this kind after the galas
and a work inspired by this?! authors are such a gift
roses for you
🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
-Rose 🥺🌹
not me having to look up which fic awbeitw was again because i totally forgot. I'm the worst author i swear LMAO.
made you look is such a fun little song!
i wish i would have my lando moment ngl
i think, in my mind, that i imagined them to be part of this new and upcoming business! you could get one if you knew the right people, and there are no laws in place yet because the government is slow like that
i NEED that threeway battle
sweety you have thought more about these tentacles than i have oml. i think i need to write down the tentacle lore one day
dom!charles my belovedth!!
sdkghs you have all the consent to kiss my brain, tho i cannot imagine for that to be a pleasant exchange.
and yeah!! that's what happens when we authors cannot shut up about our own work and end up talking to other authors and then start a whole new trend. I'm taking credit for the influx of tentacle fics that followed my fic (/j) <33

Interview by Veronica Bianchi-
-paraphrased to include my favorite bits & alongside my crazy ramblings!
I feel like this must have been previously posted here, either in full or in part, beyond just including a quote or two in a compilation, but I can’t find it and I also don’t really care...because I’d post it anyway regardless lol, so...let’s get right into it:
••••••••
Interviewer: “Tough guy or softy?”
Jared: “People often expect me to be the gentle one of the two of us.”
Jensen: “That’s not just suspected. It’s also true.”
Jared: “Yeah, I admit...I can be a pretty big softy.”
Jensen: “Did you or did you not cry during Toy Story 3?”
(I just adore the mental image of J2 cuddled up watching Toy Story 3 together ❤️ and Jared gets all teared up into Jensen’s lap while Jensen pretends to be mildly exasperated but soothingly rubs Jared’s head and also finds it secretly endearing)
•••••
Jared (on his relationship with Jensen): “That’s almost impossible to explain. Nine months of the year we’re stuck together, but even when we’re not actually working during those nine months, or during the other three months out of the year for that matter, we always find ourselves choosing to be together.”
(This has obviously become such a famous J2-ism, and with good reason! My favorite thing about it is how Jared starts off by saying that his relationship with Jensen is impossible to explain, but then by the end of his answer, in one long sentence, he’s managed to pretty undeniably convey the fact that they are CLEARLY, CLEARLY soulmates who literally cannot be separated from each other.) 💕
•••••
Jensen: “If you compare our relationship to Sam and Dean’s relationship, there is a huge difference. Jared never drives me up a wall.”
Jared: “I wouldn’t say never.”
Jensen: “Not like you’re actually driving me up a wall. We can talk to each other about anything, do anything together...and that’s pretty unique.”
Jared: “Yeah! And whenever we’ve fought, it’s been for each other.”
Jensen: “We have that loyalty, and I can honestly say I’d jump in front of a bullet for him and never think twice.”
Jared: “And the best part of Jensen’s and my relationship is it’s gonna be that way while we’re doing the show and when we’re not. He’s stuck with me for life now, and that’s important.”
(I mean, what to even say about all this that isn’t already completely obvious? I will say that these interviews always make me nostalgic for the earlier days when the Js were so blatant about their much-more-than-platonic relationship in so many ways that it’s a miracle there’s a single person who was around for those years and paying attention who didn’t glue on the old tinhat.)
•••••
Jared (on their approach toward what they look like/style/etc.): “Jensen thinks he’s a cowboy.”
Jensen: “I’m not going out and buying a ranch or anything.”
Jared: “You still think you’re a cowboy at heart though.”
(I can just see it soooo clearly, cowboy Jensen! Also, we literally HAVE seen it now.)
Tumblr media
Jared (to Jensen as he continues to answer the question): “I’m not wearing anything special, am I?”
Jensen: “Just flannel, like you and Sam always are.”
Jared: “‘Cause your clothes are always so stylish.”
Jensen: “They are.”
(another thing I can visualize so clearly, Jared huffily/teasingly saying “cause your clothes are always so stylish,” and Jensen just being like ohh “they are” with a little smirk.)
Umm and THIS is an obviously necessary addition:
Tumblr media
•••••
Jensen: “I haven’t needed any salt yet to ward off evil spirits in my home.”
Jared: “We totally sleep with salt guns. He lies.”
•••••
Interviewer: “Nerds or lady-killers?”
Jensen: “Nerd!”
Jared: “Also nerd.”
Jensen (on females who are into them): “It’s flattering, but not something we concern ourselves with.”
(because they’re gay and also husbands, but...you know)
•••••
Jared (on possible work-opportunities outside of SPN): “We always make those kinds of decisions together.”
Jensen: “We don’t begrudge each other those kinds of projects, even though we call each other often to talk about how relaxed we actually have it on the set of SPN.”
(certainly not because they’re too codependent to make it through something like that without talking constantly on the phone or anything)
Jared (on working with Jensen again after or even during SPN): “In other words, soon you might be able to book us as a duo!”
(I’m having a memory now of least this one particular segment being posted, and I’m going to repeat the exact same thoughts: this always sounds so much like an engagement hint to me. 😜)
•••••
Interviewer (lightning round): “Hair color?”
Jensen: “I think I’m naturally like a dark blondish.”
Jared: “Okay, Ken.”
(OMG, guys, another one that needs to be added to the ‘things-the-Js-have-called-each-other’ post. But also, does that make Jared Barbie? Hehe)
Tumblr media
•••••
Interviewer (lightning round): “Other person’s best qualities?”
Jared: “Great ass!”
Jensen: “Gorgeous laugh and smile!”
Jared: “He’s a great guy, a good listener…and he’s ungodly faithful.”
(the “ungodly faithful” thing is my absolute favorite)
•••••
Interviewer (lightning round): “Other person’s worst qualities?”
Jensen: “Oh god, here we go.”
Jared: “He is such a control freak!”
(first, how much more husbandly could they POSSIBLY be?? Second, an alpha Jensen reference! Be still my heart. ❤️)
Tumblr media
•••••
Jared (his favorite book): “The Great Gatsby.”
Jensen: “You’re such a girl.”
(heh 😏)
•••••
Jared (on their favorite movies): “[Jensen’s] really in love with Clint Eastwood.”
Jensen: “He’s the best!”
•••••
Jared (answering for Jensen, favorite music): “-country.”
Jensen: “Yes, country.”
Jared: “I like country, but Jensen loves country. There’s nothing like being woken up at 4:00 in the morning to Taylor Swift.”
(the official end of the above sentence is “-blasting from the trailer next to yours,” but I feel like Jared totally just phrased it that way to ‘un-suspicious’ his answer)
Jared (continuing, to Jensen): “You love Taylor Swift!”
Jensen: “I know I do.”
Jared: “And here I was calling you a manly man earlier.”
(Me: *below*)
Tumblr media
Do tell, Jared!
•••••
Interviewer: “Main ambitions?”
Jensen: “I want to be as good of an actor as I can possibly be, keep my private-and-family-life private, and put up with this one over here. (…)”
Jared: “(…) I want to be very thankful and appreciative and never let any of it get to my head.”
Jensen: “You won’t. I’ll keep you grounded.”
Jared: “I know. I’ll always have that to rely on.”
(Sooo many examples in this interview of the Js either literally talking about being together forever or pretty much literally talking about it: “I’ll always have that to rely on.”)
•••••
A couple of other favorite bits that didn’t make it in above:
Jensen (about Jared preparing to film a certain scene): “He’d been working out for weeks...with good results!”
(admiring those muscles, eh Jensen? 😉)
•••••
Jensen: “I prefer to keep away from the red carpet world of Hollywood and avoid the paparazzi.”
(because it ties into Jensen’s last answer about keeping his private life private)
•••••
Jensen (to Jared): “You sound like an extendz commercial, like you’re the ‘larger man.’”
Jared: “Well, if you want to put it that way…”
(*smirks*)
•••••
And I accidentally deleted this answer from above while editing:
Jared (after Jensen told the Jared-ripping-his-pants story): “I’m really thinking hard about an embarrassing story to tell about you right now, but I can’t think of any that wouldn’t get me into trouble.”
(at least half of the stories in Jared’s head were dirty in nature or revolved around dirty moments, let’s be real)
