Yes, yes and yes! I quit reading J2 (save one I read quite recently; Jared was a dragon, so my curiosity overwhelmed my nervous tic and it was all good in the end, thankfully) because of that stuff. It was getting to a point where I was restraining myself from commenting on fics of that ilk and asking, "Why do you feel like this behavior is okay?" because it was just too much.
I stopped reading regularly after a rather good fic that ended with Jared being a surprise!bottom (which is NO levels of NONONO for me) and JDM being the creepy surprise!villain. Also, the ultimate explanation for it was complete crap and pissed me off, too. Way to drop the ball and do... all manner of weird, rapey and abusive things in the last chapter. I quit altogether for years--about 2 or 3, I think--after a completely FUBAR mess where Jared was a violently sinister creep of a guy that was all about stalking Jenny and being, well, a rapist fuck about the whole thing. But of course Jensen fell stupidly in love with him and um... Huh?
One of the snippets I read for the BB thing this year promises to be about like that, Jared's a jerk who treats Jensen like a piece of meat and Jensen loves him for it. Oh, so wrong, kids; that kind of behavior is never okay. It makes me so sad and weirds me the fuck out, tbh, because I am Sensitive Sister like that. Lol.
Idk as much about Tom as I do JDM, but way back in the day when I watched SV, it seems like a lot of fans were under the impression the poor guy was a total jerk-off. He really always struck me as shy and well, also not the brightest bulb in the chandelier, but I never thought he was a dick. Seemed pretty nice to me, if a bit confused at times as to how he got... wherever. JDM is just a big old squishy though, seems like the happiest, friendliest, most chivalrous (sometimes to his own detriment from what I've read--trying to save maidens in distress and whatnot) guy ever. It makes me want to write J2 with JDM as the cheerful, bonged-out uncle type and Tom as the sweet, if a bit slow on the uptake, next door neighbor that collects lawn gnomes. Idfk. DON'T JUDGE ME. :P
*fist bump* YEA! You now has polo shirt of teamplayerness! Woot!
