s_c showed our photo op photo to her coworker/semi-supervisor, who had this very gratifying reaction. (She has a heavy Texan accent, so imagine that as you read.)
Coworker [rather shocked both that the stars would touch us like that, and that we would let them]: "They’re really, intimately close to y’all--I’m surprised that a celebrity would touch people like that."
s_c [pointing to Jared, confessing]: "He’s my biggest celebrity crush."
Coworker [still shocked, and impressed/happy for her]: "Well, he held you in his arms--his big, manly arms! They're both almost wrapped around you two."
