The fandom-destroying Cockles sunset picture
Love is in the air at Jus In Bello Italy 2014

Cockles is a "pairing mashup" - a portmanteau of (Misha) Collins and (Jensen) Ackles - used either as short-hand to indicate the friendship and dynamic between the two actors, or referring to the RPF slash ship in a fanfiction or other fanworks. Alternately, JenMish has also been used more recently to describe the pairing. As a ship its fans tend to regard it lightheartedly, although there are Tin Hat shippers that believe Jensen and Misha are in a behind-the-scenes relationship.

Although there are relatively fewer Jensen/Misha fics than it’s predecessors, the duo has become a popular force in fandom over the years. The ship is heavily reblogged and tweeted, with the Cockles fandom a major force in winning Jensen and Misha the Teen Choice Award for Best Chemistry in 2015.

The Cockles fandom tends to take a playful approach to the ship, helped along by Jensen and Misha’s flirty dynamic. Incidents such as the resume-off from Jibcon 2012, or the duo dancing to “Singing in the Rain” at Jibcon 2013, exemplify this.

As with the characters of Dean and Castiel, the concept of lack of “personal space” has also become an ongoing joke for fans and the actors (see this video from Jibcon 2012 for example).

The arch-nemesis of Cockles fans is the infamous Cockles Tree. Fans visiting the set of Supernatural caught video, including Jensen and Misha rehearsing a scene, but a tree partially blocked the view.

In November 2013, Misha posted a link "accidentally" to a tumblr post titled "The epic love story of Jensen Ackles and Misha Collins". In March 2015, Jensen posted what became known as the “Sunset Pic” of himself and Misha during a filming break.

Cockles is sometimes inclusive of “JDMV," a subset of Cockles shipping incorporating Jensen, Danneel, Misha, and Vicki into a single polyamorous ship both in fanfiction and in tinhat theories.
