All right, people. Clearly I have to put together a full primer to drag you all kicking and screaming into JoBros. Because there is no one in the fandom and there NEEDS TO BE, and Nick and Joe aren't just in love, they're that kind of intense, amazing, it-almost-hurts-to-watch in love that Sam and Dean were in the early seasons of SPN, that "When

You make really convincing posts about this matter. Joe really IS all over Nick, isn't he? Wow.

[esorlehcar]

He IS. All the time. And it's not... like. You know how half the time when Jensen and Jared do or say really slashy things it's with this wink-and-nod kind of air--they know what we're thinking, and it amuses the hell out of them, so they're willing to play with us? Which I adore, don't get me wrong, but it's NEVER like that with Nick and Joe. This is just... how they are. All the time. They don't even think about it... they touch each other and hang all over each other and tell each other they love each other all the time because they can't imagine NOT doing it. It's never for the camera or for the fans; it's always just for them. I wish I could link you to this wonderful moment where they have this whole little secret moment in the middle of an interview while the focus is on Kevin, but youtube took it down, the bastards. But it's just. So, so, so in love.

Is this what you're looking for? I can't believe they took the video down. :(

I know! I love the GIF, but it's just not the same as seeing it in context. I have it in mp4 format, though, if you want it...

OH MY GOD, I would love that! Because you're right, it's a cute moment in the GIF, but it's the context that makes it so awesome. They're in the middle of an interview! Kevin is talking! And Nick just has the moment of you and me, buddy. SO IN LOVE.

I, um. Might have spent a few hour-long train rides just watching that moment over and over again on my iPod.

And I know I know. That little NOD, and the tiny little smiles, and the fistbump that almost can't be called a fistbump because it's so gentle and affectionate and BOYS. HOW ARE YOU SO WONDERFUL? I can't wrap my mind around it.

Thank you so much!!! I will hug it and love it forever.

The NOD plus the SMIRK. THE NOD/SMIRK WAS WHAT BOYS DID TO GIRLS IN MY HIGH SCHOOL WHEN THEY WANTED US TO KNOW THAT THEY WERE THINKING ABOUT US NAKED. Or, just, to make us blush, whatever. The point is: brotherly relations, YOU'RE DOIN' IT WRONG. And the way Joe immediately responds, smiles and touches his fist and then looks away almost like he might smile too big and happy if he keeps looking at Nick.

Here's what I want to know. What made Nicholas feel like he needed that little playful moment with Joe there, that contact, in the middle of an interview? WHY CAN I NOT READ NICK'S MIND?

Okay, I'm stopping now (but only so I can go upload this to my ipod).
