I have no memory of this photo being taken, but I know that it happened in Japan when Sean and I were there to promote Toy Soldiers.
I imagine the conversation immediately preceeding this went something like this:
Japanese PR Person: You put on this sweater over your shoulders. You rascal!
Me: Um…
Sean: Yeah, we can do that.
PR Person: Put hands on hips. Rascal!
Me and Sean: Uhh…
PR Person: PICTURE! PICTURE!
Me (to Sean): On a scale of 1 to horrible…
Sean (to me): Horrible. Horrible.
Me (to Sean): Let’s look intense. So people will know that we’re 18 and very serious.
Sean: Good idea!
[We make a Very Serious Face]
PR Person: Rascals! You RASCALS! GIVE ME RASCALS!
Sean and Me: Okay.jpg.
I’m not sure why all the people in Japan said we were RASCALs, but they were very nice about it. I’m also not sure why I had that appalling hairdo, but it was 1990, so it probably made sense.
To be honest, I’m a little bit more concerned with the sweaters.
I love you, Wil Wheaton.
