They look like a pair of hobos, frankly

[callowyn]

Regardless of what certain beard-supporters might say, I maintain that Bradley's attempt at facial hair makes him look like he is homeless. Colin's, while adorable, tends to have the same effect. Then I began to ask myself: what would Bradley and Colin do if being on Merlin didn't work out? What if they really were hobos?

OMGLOL, this is awesome! Also, fingerless gloves = ♥.

That and his (canon!) hilariously puffy jacket. I just want to squish him ♥

Very cute. Loved that Bradley took the camera but not food. Hee!

I think Colin in real life looks scrumptious in his scruff and I'm not fond of beards. But tastes vary. Bradley on the other hand should never ever wear a beard where anyone could see him.

Thanks! I can dig Colin's scruff most of the time, and the sideburns were pretty excellent. I wouldn't be so opposed to Bradley's beard if he could ACTUALLY GROW ONE.

Bradley really shouldn't. His hair color is too close to his skin color and it doesn't look good. I had the opportunity to see both of them at BAFTA and Colin was smoking hot in his scruff. :DDD

I am so jealous right now.

Poor Bradley probably had a lot of people kind of look at his face slantwise and say, "...so, what's with the beard?" and he was thinking "I THOUGHT IT WAS DASHING OKAY"

Ah HaHaHaHaha. Oh boys. And Colin with his red scarf is awesome.

[callowyn]

Everything about Colin's costume makes me laugh, really. It makes me wish I hadn't copped out on Bradley's.

HAHA! I love it! They totally do look homeless with beards. *snickers*

[callowyn]

Thanks! The moment I saw the beard I was like BRADLEY THERE IS SOMETHING ON YOUR CHIN RUN AWAY.

[dysonrules]

I KNOW, RIGHT? I wrote a COLIN SHAVES BRADLEY'S SCRUFFY FACE fic.

It had to be done.

*nods*

[callowyn]

I have to say, the beard was worth it for all the beard!fic, especially the ones where Colin was like "uh, I DON'T THINK SO."
Link me to yours!

they DO look like hobos, i'm happy other people understand that.

and seriously, this is BRILLIANT.

[callowyn]

Haha, thanks! I'm curious what the final breakdown of bearders and haters will be.
