blue -- I'm so thrilled you had a great time. And of all the things I've read here, I think this means the most to me, though...

It seems that the ML fanfic writers have changed his mind. He was rather hesitant about fanfic at the ML Gala in October, having had a bad exposure to it in the past. This is truly wonderful to hear.

Yep fanfic came out on top this weekend. Jordan spoke very highly of it too.

I was wondering. Were the initials AOL whispered at all at the convention?

It was mentioned that he was sorry he couldn't make it and that he'd tried really hard to get there but in all honesty Jason & Jordan stole the show. Everyone was so interested in these two that I didn't think too much about the lack of Alex (and I didn't think that would be the case before I went).

Yep, coco is right. The two of them just ran away with our hearts! AOL hardy came up. We missed him but everybody understood his absence. Plus with AOL at the con it would have been a much different event. This was perfect... 'course I love Jason anyway and Jordan was delightful. I don't think I ever fully realized how funny he is and how charming, how handsome. I think I had an OMG moment. He told this really funny story about a trip to Paris he took. That man could charm the socks off an Eskimo in a blizzard. You meet him once and it gives the ML story a whole new intensity. It just reinforces the incredible ML cast that was put together to bring us the story.

I'm so tired but I forgot to mention how much I enjoyed meeting all the ML sisters from across the pond. Gosh these are some funny ladies, and very hospitable. Also a couple of ML sisters from the US and Canada that I hadn't had a chance to meet. This was just an incredible trip. I haven't laughed so hard, or enjoyed so many people in a long time.



More stories tomorrow, I promise. And I'll download my camera and see what I have.

blue,

did you get the impression from either Jason or Jordan that ML was a special experience for them? Did they enjoy their time with the others?

I don't know about Blue. I think Jason certainly felt ML was special, Jordan too, to a certain extent. They felt the buzz around it, and knew that it routinely won it's time slot. A piece of ML gossip for you. Francis Capra, auditioned for the part of Guillermo. Joel Silver asked him to audition for the part. He was beaten by Jacob Vargas.

I had the chance to have "Tea" with them. I felt they liked the smaller con, as it was more personal. Jordan, commented that he thought he had spent time with each of us personally.

I have to say I was never a Josh fan, but this weekend has swayed me towards being a Jordan fan. He is staggeringly handsome, and his eyes are intense, they always have a smile in them.

Jason, is Jason, handsome, friendly and gracious, what more can I say.

Thanks so much to everyone for taking the time to post your pics and stories - they are all so fabulous to read.

I wish I could have been there with you, Val. We would have torn London up!!!

Going on what Jenny said. They really did. mean even myself who didn't go to the meet and greet, get pics or autographs go to speak with them, several times actuallly...it was awesomely weird. And to the AOL question, yup he was hardly mentioned. We were way too involved in the two we had though...big mouth american i am. I did tell Jordan that when he walked it again, it was Alex Who? LOL

Jason said that he enjoyed all the Star Fury con's but this one was the best. This was a first for Jordan and he seemed like he was having a good time. He was grinning the whole weekend. Each night there was a dance and Jordan came the last night, just to socialize. Jason said he couldn't because he had an early flight. This is the first SF con I've attended.

I was wondering if Jordan would get eclipsed by Jason, but that didn't happen. We had an hour long Q & A session with Jordan and we kept him busy with plenty of good, well thought out questions. He really added a lot to the Josh / Beth relationship. For instance, he said they didn't tell him that Josh was going to die. So as he was reading the script he kept wondering if he would be turned or if this would be his last epi. I thought that was sad but he put a positive spin on it and said it allowed him to bring it to us fresh without any baggage. What a professional.

There were several Q & A sessions and I got up several times. When I went to get a second photo with Jason he bent down towards my ear and said 'you asked some really good questions, thank you.' *blue squees*

I think what helped is that there was enough time for the guys to ask us questions, for us to ask them questions, one to one, so the whole experience was very personal. It wasn't quite like having them in your living room but it was close.

My daughter has seen some of the pictures and she says I looked giddy...she has no idea.

What I should do is get the VM DVD set and watch it.

Jason got all choked up and teary eyed during the closing ceremony when he held a little speech thanking us for the weekend.

Sorry red, tired and still buzzing. I was saying all the BBM girls need to read a fic now. With the memory of how jason got choked up, sad Josef just has a whole new perpective.

Jason seriously was moved. I really don't think they get HOW MUCH they have affected us. Chicago began it and London cemented it.
