Hi! I'm trying to work my way through this CW rps thing that I blame on you guys--it's all your faults! I'm an innocent here.
Hope it works. I'm not all that good at the RPSing, even though it is fun. It's just, there's so little to hang it on, and for some reason, I reeeeelly hate watching interviews, they make me squirm. I did like that one a few years back with the whole SV cast. It was funny, informative and scripted to the most part. More like unreal life, the way I like it.
So, those of you who've written RPS seriously, how do you research for it? How do you decide what your characters are like? I'm deeply into reading the J2, in case you haven't noticed mynear incessant mentioning of it, and some of them are quiet lovely, and some of them are Norman and Alfonso, but for the purposes of the story, the writer called them Jensen and Jared. Also...stop fucking Thomas up. I swear to God, don't make me come over there.
Anyhoo--being here doesn't mean I've fixed my SpN story so much as given up on it. What comes is what comes. I'm not going to sweat it. Not like I'm being tested on it, after all.
*cries in the coat closet*

Um.
I've written exactly one J2 fic, and i didn't do 'research' at all, since it was pretty wildly AU, heh.
But, i guess, watch some vids of them and such and see what sort of person they're like. I mean - we only ever get the 'surface' person, anyway, so all the rest - Jared likes red sheets, Jensen is grumpy before coffee - is all made up, anyway.
If you think you have a sense of the person from interviews and behind-the-scenes and things, go for it. Otherwise, no worries, it's fake!!
