A lot of stuff happened today and last night, but I really just want to share my encounter with Misha Collins because I broke down crying and I’m extremely emotional. It was an amazing experience.
First of all, I had two photo ops with him and those were short. I got to hug him, which was great, but I didn’t really get to say anything to him. But then the autograph session came and I took advantage of the opportunity to talk to him. I said something along the lines of “I just want to thank you because I’ve had an extremely rough year, but the friends I’ve made through being a fan of yours have kept me going. If it weren’t for them, I’m not sure I would have made it. So thank you for inspiring people to be so kind and wonderful. I’ve met some of my best friends thanks to you.” I then pointed to Rin and Ceecee who were standing right behind me.
He took my hand and said “thank you for telling me this. I hope this year will be much better for you.” I said I hoped so. Then he asked for my name and even though he isn’t supposed to do personalization he did this.
I started to cry as he signed it. I said thank you and walked away in tears. Ceecee told me that after I walked away he told her and Rin to “take care of me.”
I’m overwhelmed.
