My sister was into the X-Files, but it grossed me out and I wasn't really that into Mulder. So I was only half paying attention when it was on. Then Season One Episode Eleven, this really hot guy with an accent came on the screen and could light a fire from his fingertips and I was like, "What? Who is this? Oh my." I was 14. My fire kink had really hit its peak. And Mark was so young and ungh. Anyway, I paid very close attention that whole episode. It also happened to be the first time we saw some real human flaws in the character of Mulder. He got some dimensions in that episode. And suddenly, I was interested.
And had it not been for the presence of Mark Sheppard - I wouldn't have even been paying attention. And my life would have been X-Files-less. So I love Mark even more for that.
Don't be nervous. Richard loves everyone. Misha loves everyone. And not being able to talk might save you from saying something really, really embarrassing anyway, so, you know, just remember to smile and not have a panicked look on your face the whole time.
You'll be fine. :)
Here, let me share my awesome Misha story with you that I can't post about until after Christmas or my sister might see my post.
I went to get my Misha autograph - and you know the big stars like Misha and the Js don't personalize when they sign, they don't write your name or any messages or anything. Anyway, I brought my sister's Season 11 ER DVDs. He was in like three episodes of that and I thought it would fun to get them signed for her, since we both already have his autographs on actual things we wanted signed.
His handler is actually a volunteer I know from years ago, we have a RL friend in common. So I go up to the table and she takes my DVDs and says "Um, this is for Misha?" and I said, "Yes." and Misha grabs them from her hand and says, "I was actually in this show."
I said, "For all of like three minutes." He starts signing them and I turn to the girl and say, "They are for /insert my sister's name here/ for Christmas." and she shrugs and goes, "Okay then."
So then, I look over and Misha is very intently writing on my sister's DVDs (with his little tongue poking out of his mouth) - and I'm thinking omg no, he is like drawing devil horns on Noah Wyle's face or something - and then he looks up and asks, "How do you spell /sister's name/?".
I spelled it for him and then I was all, "Dude, you didn't have to do that," and he just smiled and hands it back to me and goes, "Dude, my ER DVDs."
When I looked, it had his signature and then "Merry Christmas" with like exclamation points and a smiley face and then my sister's name.
See, they are the nicest guys ever. You'll be fine. Don't be nervous.
