Let's talk about that hug ...

[dizzojay]

You know, this one ...



This happened right at the end of the closing ceremony and it was a completely spontaneous moment.  It wasn't showboating, it wasn't for the fans, it wasn't premeditated or choreographed.  It wasn't for anyone else but them.

It was a private moment played out in front of 800 people and cameras, and clearly neither of them cared.  It was an act of complete shameless love and concern between brothers, and it shows just how far they have both come in learning to feel at ease with us and trust us.

After Jared's issues last year, it was plain to see that Jensen was so overwhelmed with relief, he practically threw himself at Jared. No hesitation, no playing to the audience, just ... WHAM!  With the support of all his friends, and not least Gen, who made the journey with him, Jared had come through the weekend; but he hadn't just survived it, he'd positively thrived.  And oh boy, wasn't Jensen proud of him.

Look at the body language - they couldn't get closer to each other if they tried, it's like they're trying to occupy the same space - physics can go screw itself!

It was support, gratitude, relief, love and thanks all rolled into one special instant between them, and it reduced the room to a sighing, gasping mess!

And that, right there, illustrates exactly why these two amazing and fabulous guys are so very, very special to us.

Thank you so much for that recap and the reasons behind, I absolutely couldn't adore these two more. The fact that they're that comfy with each other and that they're comfy with us is amazing and gives the rest of the world hope, ya know! ♥♥

If the rest of the human race could behave like these two, the world would be a very happy place!

Aw, thanks for sharing the background my dear, the pics and vids are so moving but to hear you say how it happened, well...*cries happy tears*

[dizzojay.livejournal.com]

It was such a special moment, it took our breath away!

You know that hug is the stuff legends are made of, and reading the back ground to it makes it even more special. Jared and Jensen really have a very special relationship, and I'm so happy they feel comfortable enough to share it with us.

Legendary just about sums it up.
I love those guys so much, it's actually quite scary!

Yeesh, Dizzo, do you have to go and make posts that get me all misty-eyed and stuff?

Of course, it's not really your fault, is it? It's these Two! Damned! Impossibly! Lovable! Guys!

But yeah, your words did it, too, you accomplice.

I absolve myself of all responsbility. It's those two gorgeous gits' fault!

I've been hearting pics of that hug all over Twitter. Thanks for providing your insight behind it.
These guys and their friendship is a beautiful sight and witnessing it in person is always so powerful.

[dizzojay.livejournal.com]

It was powerful. There was a collective gasp in the room when it happened.

Every time I see this pic my heart just swells. ♥ ♥ ♥

Thank you for your words, as someone who watched it live and can attest to how spontaneous and genuine it was.

OMG. I'm crying now. What a beautiful recap of a beautiful moment between these two beautiful people. I saw the pictures first. Jared's face and then finally Jensen's face. I didn't see any gifs or actual vids of the moment until yesterday so I wasn't sure what proceeded the moment and what happened after. It was just a small moment between brothers that everyone saw but no one made a big deal of. And then Jared goes to Gen and hugs her. Such an absolutely beautiful moment, thank you for encapsulating it so perfectly. And you are right, that moment does illustrate perfectly why this show and these two men in particular are so very special to us. (okay, I need to stop crying now.)

[dizzojay.livejournal.com]

Those guys will do that to you; they are just two very special people.
Hope you've stopped crying now :D

[metallidean-grl.livejournal.com]

Yes, I have stopped crying by now, but they will still fall freely when I look at pictures, gifs or vids of the moment. They are just regular joes, but also very special, especially when they are together.
