This is a really great story so far, its too bad that its not working for you anymore, but thank you for sharing it! I'd ask for more information why you can't get into their heads anymore, but I have a feeling I don't really want to know.

Is BW really a recovering alcoholic?

Thank you for reading and commenting.

It's really nothing bad. I like intelligent humour a'la departed George Carlin, subtle, small-gestured humour Jensen Ackles does in cons and interviews sometimes, and Justin seems to perceive completely different things as funny.

Yes, he is. He has said it in an interview. Somewhere. I can't seem to find the link.

Well -- thanks, I like this so far! And you've convinced me not to read any JL interviews. Even more valuable... :)

Thanks for reading and commenting.

Yes, a person has better things to do with their time than read or watch Justin Long interviews. Those few cute quotes, how he looks up to Bruce, how Bruce took care of him in the action scenes, stuff like that, made him seem adorable, which he totally is not.

You need to continue this, because it's great so far.

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it.

I wrote a long-winged answer as to why, but then I realized that the reason I don't continue this is that I don't like Justin Long. After watching his interviews for character research, I had to watch Die Hard 4.0 and really focus on Matt cause I didn't want to end up resenting him because of Justin.

Because he isn't good enough actor to make a viewer to forget he is the one doing the role. Most of film actors aren't. I can't watch anything Mel Gibson has ever done cause I despise him for his opinions. Or John Travoltas' work, because of how much damage he is doing to the gay community, everyone knows he is gay, but he is a damn scientologist and they, with their sick ideologies, advocate discrimination against gay people. And I'm stopping now before I get all rant-y with a subject that has little, if nothing, to do with this fic :)

I feel your pain. I know nothing about the man, but I find that generally speaking it's much better not to know anything. I have to admit that regardless how stupid actors get, there are very few that I refuse to watch. Mel Gibson and Tom Cruise being two of them, but mostly when their stupidity spills out to social issues. I'd include John Travolta, but I haven't WANTED to see any of his movies regardless of him for years, so I don't think I can count it as a choice. *g*

Yeah, I'm leaning on the better-not-to-know myself after that. And agreed on not wanting to see anything Travolta has done. Not since Pulp Fiction actually. And Cruise, but that has more to do with him having completely lost his talent. And I think with all the money and brainwashing from the scientology, he is so insane these days I don't know how anybody can take seriously anything he says.

Very nice start. I like it and even if it won't be finished I'm glad you shared it! :)

Also, I completely understand your plight. I used to write RPS (bandom) and after watching/seeing way way too many videos of one of the singers I most enjoyed writing about being a complete and utter douche, I stopped. You just can't get any enjoyment out of it after that. Now, RPS is regulated to (sometimes) reading material.
