hilsSo, I was having a discussion on Twitter tonight after I saw this slightly surreal gif in ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
timey_wimey_kid's LJ. I watched it run through a few times because I realised that no matter how hard I try when I look at pictures of Castiel I just do not see Misha at all.
I posted a tweet half-joking about it
Seriously, I look at pictures of Castiel and I try to see Misha but I just can't. He has serious magical acting powers that change his face
A few people said they had the same thing with Jensen and Dean.stripedsockscat linked me to this photo of Jensen being Dean whilst at a con.
It just reminded me of the first time I met Misha at Collectormania.valderys commented how different he looked smiling and joking with us. Naturally Misha apologised and went into srs bsns Cas mode. It was strange and awesome.
But during the Twitter conversation we all agreed that none of us had this problem with Jared. Poor Jared. He always used to be my favourite. Before Misha.
I've also realised, looking at that photo (which I'm guessing is at least a year old) of Jared and Jensen, that I really don't find Jared attractive anymore. I don't know what it is but something has changed as he's got older.
Interestingly one of my Twitter friends said she's so used to seeing Misha goofing around that she can't take Castiel seriously any more. So I guess it works in reverse too.
There's no real point to this post btw. I was just sharing my thoughts. Also,harper47 said I haven't posted enough about Misha over the last few days ;)
