OH MY GOD I love your brain, I didn't even think of that. Definitely one of those things that should be gross but is oddly sweet instead. INTENSE MAKE OUT SESSIONS YES PLEASE.

I'm actually working on a h/c fic for them already, but based on the injuries they gave each other during filming, lol. All the swordfighting mishaps.

Idk about the university stuff either, but he's obviously managed to take a bit of time off to do this press somehow. Cambridge and London aren't that far away so the British press would've been easier.

Oooohh I'm intrigued by all the stuff you said about Ben/Skandar. I'm sure they do hang out - they seem very close, and they're probably two of the ones who live the nearest to each other but I'm not sure. I think Ben probably doesn't really see himself as being that much older, or if he does it doesn't bother him, because I think he and Skandar seem to be on the same sort of level, and with the way they've gotten to know each other their age difference probably wouldn't have seemed so significant. The thought of them having some beers and going back to Ben's place is making me go all flaily, oh man. (I wanna see what Jack looks like too.)

I totally agree with you about the whole age thing personally. Before my Dad's girlfriend was my Dad's girlfriend, she was like one of my closest friends, and I was 14 and she was like 40, so. I used to be friends with my older sister's friends too. It just doesn't really matter to me. There is definitely a double standard when it comes to dating like you say, though - a woman who dates a younger man is always seen as some kind of pervert, or desperate, but people hardly bat an eye if an older man is with a younger woman. Ugh.
