Aaah yes, the strike of midnight. As followers and fans of a Narnia OTP (one true pairing), we should be prepared for eleventh hour shenanigans. We've got several eleventh hour happenings to take a look at, plus a few other kibbles.
• When last we left OTP Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles, they were deep in the throes of "Creation Convention Theater" as discussed in our previous post, "Flippin' J2: Jensen Ackles and Misha Collins Become the Reconstructed and Repurposed OTP". And so last weekend in Charlotte, NC, the Theatrical Threesome (as we may very well begin to refer to them 🎭) were taking the show on to Act II.
Interestingly enough, the weekend began to show a complete turnaround, fancy that! Collins took a step backwards in full panel audience view:
Well now, where's all that brazenness, Collins? 👀 🔍
And Jared and Jensen, they had a wonderful panel and it was like old times. This moment was the best, Jensen letting a fan know that he was always going to stick by his guy. I don't know why fans try to play them against one another in a live J2 panel. Yes, they will toss Milkbones and they'll participate in the mearding, but I will give credit to both men in that they support and stand up for the other, if fans try to play them off against the other or disrespect. This fan was especially rude and I felt bad for Jared, but their people set this kind of thing up. Unfortunately, it's not the publicist, but these two guys who end up paying for the scripted stunts with these kinds of consequences, on a convention stage, in front of hundreds of people.
A rude fan states that she has a question just for Jensen. Fans have done this before at conventions and I can't imagine being this rude. Are you this rude in real life? At work? In social settings?
You can tell by their faces the exact moment she says "just for Jensen".
All the props go to Jensen for sticking up for his guy. 💘
So, basically the Charlotte NC convention was a real turnaround last weekend, compared to the "Cockles feed / Cold Shoulder to Jared" nonsense at the previous con held in Denver, CO.
Or was it?
They had to give hellers something besides a ridiculous "Destiel wedding vows" quote from Collins himself, didn't they? So in the eleventh hour, all of a sudden fans receive a video from an alleged fan who claims to have had Cockles-verifying interaction with Jensen at his autograph table. The exchange after the autographing of a Destiel scrapbook came complete with her own twitter video and then an entire transcription of the tweet video also came for all hellers to hyperventilate about and proclaim as Gospel according to Cockles.

Isn't that something? Jensen just putting it alllll out there for fans to see and report back to the troops. And the testimony being posted at the end of the convention, following a pretty uneventful schedule, no less. They had no video to back this story up, only their recorded word that Jensen allegedly claimed he lives a Destiel/Jenmish life and he didn't need any scrapbook material to slobber over. "He. Lives. It."

What world is this, that Creation Convention Theater is becoming? What will the next one hold? No doubt, there will be parting gifts for both fandom sides to enjoy because that's just how this fandom works. 😉

What hasn't been said about the whole fictional nonsense of Tay and her re-do of previously released works, only to make a grotesque amount of profits, not to mention publicity and endorsement from players all around? It's all getting covered, isn't it?
While her stans and interns were busy getting Jake's social media threads to blow up all week, but particularly beginning November 11 (because the album release was set for the 12th), Jake, Austin and the Gyllynichols fam were celebrating the tenth birthday of Baby Tile 11-11-11. Narnia has covered this tale before. In 2017, we wrote a two-part post called "Jake Gyllenhaal: Oh the Places He'll Go on 11.11, Part I" and then "Part II", which explain why we firmly believe there was a Baby Tile born on 11.11 as well as why we believe the baby was a girl.
Jake has been "seen" this past week supposedly in Los Angeles as well as last weekend at the LACMA Gala. Here he is with a loaner from Audi, in what looks like might be the car maker's new electric Tron model. Better not let the Tile Hellions scratch that paint, Jakers, or there'll be penalties to pay! (Could even be a case of 'you scratch, you buy!') 💰💰 😄
The Tron does seat five, so looks like the head of the household, Mother Austin, might need to bring the rest of their kiddos in a second loaner, should there be a family excursion. After all, we know how the men have in the past, driven matching sets of wheels. 🚗🚗 Or is the Tron simply the decoy car for a couple of Q7's or Expeditions hidden in the Gyllynichols Compound garages? 😁 Seriously, it's hard to imagine squeezing part of the fam into even one of these vehicles during a summer family trip to the mountains. Nonetheless, here's "bachelor, free-wheelin" Jake in his racy wheels 🔥🔥 :

| Just call him, "Show Room Jake"! |
According to I Heart Jake, he was coming from the barber shop in Los Angeles. Here he is we assume, fresh with the new do and brand new periwinkle sweatshirt.
Not pictured, are the snaps of Jake contorting himself to get down into the driver's seat of the low ride. (We have lots to cover in this post, so we can't be showing everything!) Nah, here we go. No one looks better in a mask than Jake, do you think? 😎 He's looking pretty spiffy and not bad for a father of as many kids as he has. 😉

| "Show Room" Jake |
Now, we are not sure what's going on with his beard, Jeanne Cadieu. All we know is, he ditched her modeling ass for the LACMA Gala last weekend and attended with...surprise! Big Sis. Big Sis, who was not crinkling her nose with her husband, Peter Sarsgaard, even though we're not exactly sure where he was at. It does not appear that he was filming at the time. In fact, Peter's IMDb is pretty dead in the water with active filming and has been for a little while now:
Huh. Yep, look at that. Not busy. Yet, it was Jake who Maggie made the big red carpet splash with at the Venice Film Festival (Peter was there, but was relegated to being the photo/video taker 📸 ), remember all of that? And it was Jake who matched her velvet-for-velvet on the red carpet at the New York Film Festival, at the end of September. Poor Peter did not receive the email on that one and attended velvet-less, unfortunately. Also, it was Jake who Maggie attended a Broadway play with at the end of October. Where was Peter in those photos, you ask? Not around, was he? 😢 All of this ballyhoo has been for Maggie and her promo for The Lost Daughter, the first directing gig for the Sister Gyllenhaal.
And even though Peter is in the movie as well....we can only conclude his "star power" just must not be quite up to the star power of Jake's. Because it's Jake the brother, who is being used time after time to squire her on the carpets for her promo, and not Peter...the husband. Let that one sink in and readers should be seeing what Narnia has been saying for quite some time; that Maggie and Peter have been and are - done-zo. But wait!
Maybe there is a place where Peter can assist, though. A screening festival with some chatter. But, of course. On November 14, Peter will get to join Maggie & Dakota Johnson for a catered event to promote the movie.
Guests can expect to be provided a catered breakfast, lunch or a reception, i.e. "light refreshments". We'll hold off on predicting any "relationship goals" memes with Maggie & Peter though, since Dakota will be in attendance, and well....promo for The Lost Daughter might have another goal audience in mind, which makes Peter a third wheel.
Intentional threesome vibes, anyone?
And it seems to now make more sense that Dakota Johnson has been seen in Jake's past, sniffing for a bearding/merkin mutual contract multiple times, when you realize that his godmother Jamie Lee Curtis has a long history with Dakota's mom, Melanie Griffith. Well, well, well....the waters have been circling a smaller drain than many of us ever realized!! 👀👀 So Dakota being in Maggie's movie makes sense and then her mother can join the group. And when you consider that Jamie Lee Curtis is not only Jake's godmother, but Maggie's as well...the vines are actually getting tighter and tighter, aren't they, lol? My head hurts!
And Jamie Lee Curtis is tagged as the photographer of these photos of Maggie and Dakota.
So, perhaps now it makes more sense why Peter hasn't been around as much. Silly Narnia! But when he can't even bump Jake....well, Peter, we hardly knew ye! Oh, it would seem that Mara is trying to rectify this a tad, with the force feeding of placing Peter in Maggie and Jake's physical proximity, but...well, it's falling short. Nonetheless, new photos emerged last night of the Gylly-Sarsgaard trio at an awards show (we've not heard of this one!) we assume because The Guilty earned a writing/editing award. For some reason, it appears to be very important for Jake to be placed in Los Angeles at this time, so we'll just sit back and wait to see what that's all about. Looks like a gathering of extended fam is taking place, perhaps to help observe all the Gyllynichols birthdays taking place this November and December. 😉
Still, Peter seems to be an observer here, doesn't he? Yep, we hardly knew ye, Peter, but we just might be getting a more comprehensive whiff of the tea now. ☕ 😉
Now the Peyton Place drama doesn't start and end with the Gyllenhaal-Sarsgaards, for last weekend found Jake's man Austin, over in Wilmington, North Carolina! Yes, Austin was attending a FWB (Friends with Benefits) One Tree Hill weekend event. You know, FWB which rode EyeCon out of town and took over the convention gigs for their old show.
If you'd like a refresher or are new to Narnia, here's our view on the hostile takeover in a couple of posts:
From November 12, 2018 - Monday Afternoon QB'ing Musings: Cons, Meet and Greets, and Money Wars
From April 8, 2018 - Sunday Morning Almost Monday Morning Musings - Nibbles 'n Bits
And while Austin had given the gals the thumbs down previously, this year, for some reason, there he was. Now, one might think that Mara Buxbaum was trying hard to push the "they can't possibly be parents" narrative due to Jake being in Los Angeles GALA'ing while Austin was in Wilmington, NC. But surely we're not all that brainless, are we? After all, there are nannies...and babysitters...not to mention Baby Tile #1 son being fourteen now and fully capable of helping out, not to mention their cousin Ramona Sarsgaard being one year older. Lots of help!
And so the "Weekend in Tree Hill" event took place after Austin was announced to be a guest as late as September 29:
We had photos of Austin with fans and a few of his other co-stars who were in attendance. There had been several cancellations due to COVID or work, including Lee Pace, Bethany Joy Lenz and Tyler Hilton. We didn't see any sign that Sophia Bush was in attendance and there were only a few photos of Hilarie Burton floating around. There wasn't any sign of Roberto "Robert" Buckley, who is a new star lead on Hallmark's Chesapeake Shores.

Now, is it possible Austin was a late addition because he needed to shop, I mean network for a replacement for Chumley "Hassie" Harrison? We're just askin'! There aren't any embers left in that fire, it wouldn't appear. Not even a glowing hot spot in a solitary Kingsford briquette! Hmmm, now who might....Sophia wasn't anywhere around, besides she is "engaged" now to someone else. Shantel VanSanten was there, but she's attached to Hallmark's Victor Webster. Hmmmm...Oh!
And then they had Austin attending Jana's concert event:
Poor Austy! There he is by his lonesome watching Jana sing, while Victor and Shantel cuddle up nearby. Is Austin wishing Jake were there, I mean that maybe he and Jana could've had something? Is that why he stormed the stage and -
Whoa! Where in the heck did this all come from? 😮 Austin (Julian Baker) and Jana (Alex)????? Did Narnia miss something somewhere along the way?
The janitorial service had barely gathered up the last of the folding chairs on Sunday, Nov. 7, when Just Jared fave Jana Kramer was chatting up to the likes of US Magazine.
And if that wasn't enough, she said yes, bring on the cameras and let me deny "rumors" for You Tube!
This is kind of a lot of fanning of the faintest of fires, does it seem to anyone else? So, is Cadieu out the door and Austin going to take the baton in the eleventh hour of the whole Baby Tile Synthetic project? We can only watch and see. It's entertaining, anyway. 🍿🍿 Narnia will give the theatrics a rating of two bags of popcorn! 😁
