Today I met Tyler Hoechlin

I attended a Q&A by him and also talked to him for a few minutes (pictures will follow in the next few days).

Here's what I learned. Some of you may already know, but in case you don't. ;)

Concerning Derek becoming True Alpha at the end of Teen Wolf the Movie

Tyler said he didn't know it was gonna happen at all, and saw it for the first time when he attended the first screening. He finds it super interesting for the future, especially since he reminded us all that no character remains truly dead in the Teen Wolf universe.

(If it's baiting, it's not nice, Tyler. :P )

Concerning Eli's parentage

Tyler hinted that he knows who Eli's mother is but can't say, just in case there's a new movie in the works (which he doesn't know at present).

Being asked what was the biggest plot twist in Teen Wolf according to him

Tyler said that he didn't see it coming when Peter was revealed to be the Rogue Alpha in season one. No one knew in the cast, except for Ian who was told not long before it was shot.

When being asked which Teen Wolf character he'd like to play aside from Derek

Tyler, of course, said Stiles. XD He also said that he finds some 'Stiles-like' qualities to Clark Kent in Superman and Lois, so that, in a way, he got his wish.

When asked which personality traits he shares with Derek

Tyler answered that they shared a strong sense of loyalty, especially towards family. He also said that it was weird, in a way, because sometimes things happened to Derek in the show that had echoes in his own life, and vice-versa.

When asked what Derek's music playlist would sound like

Tyler said he'd find podcasts of barks and wolves howling; listen to a lot of Nirvana and, when in the mood, listen to Mumford and Sons.

When asked who he preferred shooting with on Teen Wolf

Tyler, obviously, said Dylan. He mentioned filming season one and thinking, while shooting their first scene together, that Dylan was going to go places.

When asked what movie/tv show he'd ask people to watch to introduce them to his work

Tyler said that he's been lucky enough to play varied characters in varied works, but that he always goes back to Road to Perdition because it has a deep meaning to him.

Also, his favourite animal is the cheetah, and his favourite colour is green. This is a man of taste. <3

All in all, meeting him was an absolute PLEASURE and I'll talk more about that in a future post. ;)

Superman & Lois: Facts Con Special Adventure

Tyler Hoechlin was invited to FACTS 2023 in Ghent, Belgium. Since we were going to meet him, we wanted to give him a gift because Superman & Lois is one of our favorite shows, and both Tyler and Bitsie do an amazing job. So, after much thought, we realized that Tyler still didn't have his own comic of him as Superman and we decided that he should have one, even if it was a short short story. In this way we hired the cartoonist Daniel Mainé (Dynamite) and the colorist Manoli Martínez (Scout Comics, Action Labs...) to carry out this story that we hope you like.

Pictures from yesterday at comic con belgium ( facts ghent 2022). It was my very first con ever! The cosplay i'm wearing was not the one is was going for 🙄. It was last minute ( my costume didn't came in time such a bummer) so i went as tiffany from chucky and brought my doll along. I met some very nice and talented people over there. And talked about fandom stuff ☺️. Some people came to me and asked me for a selfie ( i don't have those pictures and forgot to ask their names 😭). I bought alot merch! And my sister who came along with me gave me a present on the con. Next edition is in april 2023. I think i will go back. I had such a great time!

FACTs Con, processing...

Hello peeps! I promised a bit more detailed story about my day at FACTs Con in Ghent last Sunday (2nd April) so here comes!

I'm warning you: it's mainly me simping HARD.

11:30am

My friend and I arrive at FACTs, she dressed as Max from 2 Broke Girls (she's a Kat Dennings fan) and I as an Elf archer (my trusted cosplay to show off my tattooed arms). It's only my second time at FACTs (first time was 2019 where I met DAVID TENNANT and nearly DIED from it), and I forgot how HUGE it is.

We make a round of the shops and goodies, before deciding to go to the main stage area where...Tyler Hoechlin is currently doing a Q&A.

11:50am

We join the Q&A. Tyler is right there on the stage, but also on the big screen, and I'm close to swooning. We stand at the back (we have a better view) and listen to those asking questions and Tyler answering them.

I learn that his favourite animal is the cheetah (mine too) and his favourite colour is green (mine too). I'm even closer to swooning.

I wonder if I could maybe join the questions queue to ask what I told @barnes-brain I'd ask him, but too late. Nevermind, I'll talk to him later (if my brain agrees with me).

12:20pm

After Tyler's Q&A, my friend and I lurk around the guest area to try and catch a glimpse of the two other guests we've come to see: Daniel Gillies and Alexander Ludwig. (I've already met Katie Leung at a previous Con, and she's the cutest, but today's Handsome Men Day).

Most of the guests aren't there (we guess they must be having lunch behind those damn black curtains) except for Daniel Gillies, whom we observe for five minutes like creeps. The man is an absolute SWEETHEART, hugs everyone, even helps disabled people out of their chairs for selfies and/or carries their belongings until they're settled again.

We can't do anything else but stan, at this point.

1:00pm

After having lunch ourselves (simple sandwiches, nothing fancy) around the same area (just in case someone appears), we start queuing for my photo with Tyler.

My friend is gently asked to leave the queue since she won't be on the photo, but no matter: she queues for our joined photoshoot with Daniel right after, which means we'll be at the top of the queue.

1:50pm-ish

After checking that I'm presentable and applying ANOTHER layer of lipbalm to make sure I don't look like a zombie, I get into the booth to have my picture taken with Tyler.

The man is RIDICULOUSLY HANDSOME, even more so from up close.

He immediately clocks that I'm a bit nervous, and soothes me by running a calming hand up and down my back.

I am officially deceased.

My friend sees me exit the booth and can't help but hype me up, making me blush like crazy. Many women in Daniel's queue get close to see my picture with Tyler and swoon alongside us with many a 'He's truly super handsome'. Yup, and I got a picture with him...

2:15pm-ish

Daniel's shoot starts. While waiting, we still had a great view of Tyler finishing his own shoot (everyone, women and men alike, exit the booth with a wide grin and heart-eyes, that's what the man does to us).

The VIPs get their photos taken first, and we can see a pregnant woman with her husband and some-months-old baby through the curtain. Daniel gets the baby in his arms for the photo. Some of us can't help the 'awwwww' that escapes us.

My friend claims that her ovaries are on the brink of explosion.

We get into the booth. My friend asks Daniel if we can hug him for our photo, he says 'Of course' but then proceeds to melt my poor darling friend's heart further.

"Are you dressed from 2 Broke Girls?!"

(At this point in the day, NO ONE seemed to recognize her cosplay.)

"Yeah?"

"That's great! Kat Dennings is one of my closest friends!"

Stunned into oblivion, we'd like to talk some more (after all, DANIEL started the conversation), but we're gently shown out the booth, still a bit dazed.

We get into Alexander Ludwig's queue giggling like the 30-something-year-old we're supposed to be.

3pm

Alexander Ludwig appears in all his giant-sized glory, dressed in a black hoodie and red cap, like a CUTIE.

He gives the BEST HUGS EVER. Also, his "Hi guys!" with a big broad smile will forever live rent-free in my head.

Love all around so far.

3:20pm-ish

I decide to queue up to have my Tyler photo signed, and there's almost no-one in the queue, so it's now or never if I want a moment to talk with him 'properly'.

He's still wearing the jacket from earlier, but now, he's got a cap too.

I am definitely deceased.

ANYWAY. I give Tyler my name to sign and this is, in substance, what was said:

"I have a question for you. I couldn't ask it during the Q&A but I wondered if I could ask now."

"Of course, go ahead."

"Alright, I got into baseball last season, which is like, a miracle, since it's not that popular on this side of the ocean."

"Yeah, I know, I found out Belgium's not big on baseball. How come you started watching it?"

"I got a great friend from Arizona who got me into it. Now I'm super addicted and it fried my brain a little."

*he smiles and chuckles* *I'm dying*

"Anyway, I wanted to ask: you made a movie called 'Everybody wants some'." *he nods* "In that movie, you wield an axe as a bat and slice a baseball in half." *he nods again with another winning smile* "I know you got skills, so was it real?"

*he chuckles again* "Well, I can tell you it happened, but I can't tell you how it happened." *there's a fucking GLINT in his eyes*

"Can't, or won't?"

*that smile will kill me dead, I swear* "Whichever."

*I laugh too, because sod it, I'm in love now* "Alright, which team do you support, by the way?" (I already know because Blaire is RELENTLESS, but I pretend not to)

"The Cubs and Angels. You?"

"CARDINALS!" *I raise my fist like a complete moron*

"NICE! Well, say thank you to your friend for getting you into the game, it's great to talk about baseball to anyone, and good luck this season!"

"Thanks! We'll need it!"

*he smiles again* "Have a great day!"

"You too!"

We move away, and I turn to my friend who looks at me with a devilish look in her eyes and tells me 'You're so fucked'.

I can't do anything else but concur.

4:30pm-ish

After doing another round in the shopping area, then fanvillage, and after trying and failing to calm down, we go back to the guest area.

We intend to simply watch for a bit, as a farewell (definitely NOT CREEPY).

In the end, my friend, who's attending her very FIRST CON might I add, decides to go back to Daniel's table and continue that conversation about Kat.

We get close, he sees her and smiles BIG. "Hey, it's my Kat Dennings!"

I step back. I had my moment with Tyler earlier (he's at the neighbouring table and I try NOT TO STARE), so I let her have hers with Daniel.

They talk about Kat, her work, what they prefer of hers, and Daniel says he's so happy to be able to talk about one of his closest friends on a day like this.

Unlike most times, when there's some sort of 'urgency' to the conversation when there's someone else in the queue, Daniel takes his time with us and wishes us a great day, with another grin.

I really think my friend made his day in a way. I'm so happy for her.

4:45-5pm-ish

We stand back now. I almost got a Cub-related gift for Tyler, but it wasn't the current roster. Not to worry. If he ever comes back to Belgium, I'll get him one.

So, now our watch starts.

Alexander Ludwig comes back from his Q&A and checks his phone. My friend tells me his wife could be giving birth any moment, and we find it soooo cute that he checks so often. He continues giving bear-hugs to those who come to his table.

Tyler is nowhere to be seen (backstage doing his 'Fast and Curious' interview, we find out later) but Daniel is being an absolute SWEETHEART and we just watch him for a while.

I hope Tyler's gonna come out soon, because I want to see him one last time before we leave. Even in passing.

Three people get in his queue. Hope blooms. My friends tells me that one woman in that queue has a baby-carrier and her baby cooing inside it. She tells me that I'll soon see Tyler interact with a baby.

I am further into deceased land.

Tyler comes back out, and all brain functions cease.

He shed the jacket and is now clad in a t-shirt. A TIGHT T-SHIRT. I feel ashamed for ogling him but GODDAMN.

The woman with the baby gets her turn. Tyler starts cooing at the child, waving and smiling and making faces.

My own ovaries get a wake-up call.

(It's truly FRIGHTFUL what the sight of a man with a baby does to a woman's body...... WHAT THE HECK???)

Anyway, the queue ends, and Tyler leaves to go backstage again until someone else shows up.

We get a very nice view of his ass as he does, and two other women who were watching the guests with us start giggling at the same time as we do.

The crew-member tending to Tyler's table looks up at that (because we weren't subtle AT ALL) and starts laughing too.

Well, okay, objectifying people isn't nice, but I DARE YOU not to stare at Tyler Hoechlin in that tight t-shirt.

5:30pm

We're back in the car, heading back home, but my head is swimming with the events of the day.

I look at my friend before she plugs in her trusted Taylor Swift playlist (we like to yell-sing whenever we're on the road together) and I conclude the day by saying:

"I'm in love"
