Buzzfeed exclusively revealed the latest DIVERGENT character poster of Eric a little bit ago & we had to Break It Down Vanity Fair Style…
An unauthorized Sex Change
Bekah: I LITERALLY do not remember this guy. I mean that in 2 ways: 1) From the books (okay yes, he’s mean. I remember that. He’s terrible actually.) 2) From comic con. Was he not AT comic con? Cuz No one, and I mean NO ONE forgets those arms. And I have forgotten them.
Bekah: So either 1) I didn’t know he existed. Or 2) I’m no longer a girl. Someone came into my room last night and performed a sex change operation
Bekah: I haven’t peed yet today (I “reward” myself with bathroom breaks once I accomplish tasks at work and so far I’ve accomplished nothing today so I’m not allowed to pee) so I’m not sure. But.. maybe? Maybe there’s something new down there?
(silence)
Bekah: This got weird. Things are weird when you’re not here to talk me down
(silence)
Bekah: No ? Nothing? You want me to further discuss how someone may have potentially performed an unauthorized sex change on my lady parts?
Bekah: Fine. I’ll do a RQ check. Breasts. Check. Womanly ass- Check. Craving chocolate? (currently typing as I eat a reeces pieces) Check. Thinking about the glass of wine waiting for me at home? Check. I feel like a woman (sing it!).
Nikki: Stop touching your privates, weirdo
Bekah: Am I still a woman?
Who is Eric?
Nikki: Let me answer your questions: 1) Eric is the horrific, no good, very rotten antithesis of Four. He also has a Napoleonic complex since Four said he didn’t want to be a Dauntless leader so they asked him. He’s mean and cruel and gets Tris super beat up during training. Remember now?
Bekah: Okay I remember this (But I totally forget what happens to him by the END of the series– which is odd!) anyway. Yes Thank you.
Nikki: DON’T SAY anything cause I’m not done with Allegiant yet!
Bekah: But one thing Veronica left out was BICEPS, amiright?
Real quick story about Jai Courtney?
Nikki: Dude jai/eric is STACKED. So shredded
Bekah: Was he STACKED in real life when you saw him? Did you SEE those tattoos?
Nikki: Lemme tell a REAL QUICK story about Jai from our Divergent set visit
Bekah: Did you SEE Four’s Tattoos? I forget
I don’t think I’ve asked you. Kill me
Nikki: So when we were on the set of Divergent, we were sitting in the cafeteria/craft services area while interviewing like half the cast. (WHILE THEO is sitting NEXT TO ME)
Bekah: dead
Nikki: (tattoos peeking out of his jacket, i was the one who asked about them)
Bekah: (you asked “can you take off your shirt real quick? it’s for research” right?)
Nikki: I see this man out of the corner of my eye and I’m like WHO IS THAT? While theo james, hot hot theo james with his AMERICAN accent is sitting next to me… like a foot from my lady parts. I LOOK AWAY from him to see JAI COURTNEY. And literally i felt a shiver run down my spine
Bekah: oh HAI JAI
Nikki: He was that menacing and that hot at the same time. It was a weird primal thing. Like I was scared but also wanted to do him
Bekah: Whattt!???? this is a very interesting story
Nikki: I thought his tattoos and piercings were all real. He was SO Eric. He was SO scary
Bekah: Sidenote: when you tell me stories like this it makes me wish you had a secret “IRL Fic” blog where you wrote fic version stories of your real life stoires
Nikki: HAHAAHAH
Bekah: Like maybe in the fic you would step over and ON Theo (sorry Theo) and just start making out with Eric right there.
Nikki: you did always want me to write fan fic
Bekah: I know. I feel like you’d be the best at it. Doesn’t matter the fandom. You’d just be the best
Nikki: awwww i feel special
Bekah: With those biceps all over you…
Nikki: yea there was a lot of bi and tri and delt action happening
Bekah: member of the BiTriDelt fraternity for sure
Nikki: Founding Father- sorry kellan lutz
Bekah: haha Kellan WISHES he was in it
Nikki: Ive never gotten the pirmal thing from the lutz, unfortch
Bekah: no. just gay vibes. unfortch
Nikki: HAHAHAAH- sorry rosalie
Bekah: Bi vibes for sure
Oh did we mention he’s from down under…?
Nikki: also this:
I think this is harkening back to my xXhardcoreXx emo screamo days. But there’s something about that, that is SOOOO hot. He looked exactly like that when we saw him. So when he came to be interviewed you can imagine my response. HELLLOOO JAI
Bekah: See… I feel like I need to see him in person.. because right here, to me, he looks like a bad ass skinhead from germany with too strong of a jaw. But it’s QUITE a contrast from Theo- an opposite.
Bekah: (hahah what’s the opposite of THAT? fat jaw? a nice skinhead?)
Nikki: Jai is all hardlines and badassness.
Bekah: hardlines. yummmm.
Nikki: Theo is just a solid guy
Bekah: With an appropriately shaped chin. Is he American?
Nikki: oh and ladies AUSTRAILIAN ACCENT
Bekah: He’s AUSTRLIAN??? You did not mention this!
Nikki: yup. And we need to learn how to spell austrailian
Bekah: hahahaha- add it to the to do list
Nikki: but whatever AUSSIE and super hot and big and muscley
Nikki: So back to that poster…. he’s looking into my soul and straight into my pants. I dont even care that that’s a mesh tank top that he’s wearing….
Bekah: hahahahahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahaahahahahaha. Then it MUST be love!
So Bekah is still a woman & Nikki is overlooking the mesh tank top. What do you think of Jai Courtney as Eric?
