characters who are so inauthentic. characters who only show what they want other people to see of them. characters who simply must have control over every part of themselves. do you even get it

I have a firm belief that the only way Yellowjackets can end is with the death of each of the remaining survivors and [redacted] was just the first (second, really) of what will be all of them in time. "The wilderness" will reclaim them one by one because they weren't supposed to leave. But also they will be swallowed up by their own darkness in their refusal to acknowledge it and that will be the great tragedy of it. All of their deaths will be preventable, but inevitable in light of the cycles they keep on repeating.

very deeply in my jackie nat feelings would you care to take a rambling walk with me?? natalie takes the brunt of so much from these girls, she’s so often an outlet for their teen anger bullshit and she so deeply doesn’t deserve it and jackie is only ever truly Mean to nat of all the girls, so it stands out so fucking much.

jackie also constantly taking a different type of heat from the team, both of them wanting to protect and love the girls the best they can, nat never once questioning whether she would hold that shit against them, nat immediately assuming role of protector and sustainer. jackie trying but failing in this setting, jackie being bitchy to nat after she screws around instead of hunting AND pulling shauna out of the wreckage as she tries to save van AND supporting the attempt to hike out and the attempt with the plane AND AND AND—all For and About shauna. shauna eclipsed the rest of the girls for her so deeply and immediately, shauna was jackie’s priority and she failed her, she lost her, she never had her (or so she died thinking).

we see nat and jackie start to push back, start to team up, start to try and protect the girls from themselves. both of them are seeing the danger of the violent shit going unchecked and the terrifying paths of spiritualism/psychosis/whatever it is, but jackie loses THE girl, the ONE girl that she cares about more than the rest combined and she takes those hits in a series of discovery, and ignored opportunities for honesty, and begging for one tiny hint that shauna loved her, and those hits took her out completely. she cared about ALL of them, but she abandoned them all, because for jackie there was never a life without shauna. there was no everyone EXCEPT shauna, there was only shauna AND everyone. but natalie didn’t abandon them. nat couldn’t. nat wouldn’t. no matter what cruelty she’s faced or continues to face, she won’t leave them. that isn’t an option to her.

so jackie stops eating. she stops caring. she begs for a reason to stick around one last time and shauna doesn’t give it to her. so jackie just keeps sleeping. nat wakes up before dawn and she hikes and she comforts and she tells lies that tear her up inside because even if she loves one individual more, or in a different way, above all natalie loves the team. jackie is the reason they survive that first winter, and nat is the reason they make it out alive.

you’re lucky, you know? I think shit is gonna get a lot worse out here, but you’re already dead, so way to make everyone jealous of you one last time. I’m sorry for what we did. but who knows, eating you might be the reason we survive the winter, so…thanks. rest in peace, jackie.

who thinks jackie’s lucky, who’s jealous? certainly not everyone. ben probably. but the rest of them? they’re trying to survive. natalie is the one who’s jealous. natalie is the one who wishes she could avoid the darkness. but natalie knows she’ll stay alive, because they need her. and, just like she let’s go of the shit that jackie said to her and gives her the most genuine honoring and thanks of anyone (when she is the only one jackie was ever that harsh with), she’ll forgive the rest of them for their much deeper cruelties.

jackie served them in death, but nat is forced to serve them in life. and that is so much fucking harder.

#that one post about how jackie the representation of humanity #dies in the wilderness and nat whos existed on the outskirts of humanity for so long must die in society #when they come back #Or whatever #jackie taylor #nat scatorccio #yellowjackets meta #rip to both of them ! was jackie better off ? she didnt uave to scramble a life together after the wilderness like they did. #and fail like they did #just thinking 😞😮‍💨

shauna is so boyfriend??

[headfone]

happy pride to deadbeat dad lesbian senators, her high school 90s nostalgia ex wife, the ex skeptic bisexual that just got really into a cult after a private therapy session with the hot cult leader, lesbians with visions telling them what to do that feel responsible for a large group of highly impressionable acolytes, people with whatever the fuck misty quigley’s got going on, suburban housewives with an all consuming darkness inside them who never got over their teenage homoerotic best friendship, biggest dyke in the canadian rockies snackie taylor, lisa, and bitches who got over their fear of cannibalism media to watch this piece of traumatised lesbian cannibalism media (me)

#quite frankly yeah

Okay this is gonna be long, but I’ve got a lot of ground to cover so please bear with me. In a real way, this is my series thesis.

I’ve said before, many times now (like a cycle) that for me the most important scene is ep 1 act 1 scene 1. There’s something There that I have been struggling to see clearly, struggling to articulate, and s2e9 really finally gave me the last pieces for it.

I think that Pit Girl is the point of the entire story. But not in the way that I thought going in. I feel like I’m rambling, so I’m going to try to structure my thoughts.

Imagine you’re a new viewer. You haven’t watched yj start to finish 30 times, you’ve never even buzzed before. You turn on the tv and the FIRST thing that happens is you see … brutality. A half dressed girl chased through the freezing woods, murdered without a chance. They drag her through the snow, string her up, pour her blood on the ground. Hack her into unrecognisable chunks. Sit around in scary outfits and rip at her, with a huge focus on the teeth, as horror music plays. Then, Misty takes off her mask, puts on her glasses, and does the worst possible thing. She smiles. Directly at you.

Again, forget everything you know and go on vibes. You’re seeing the teens pre-crash, and you’re seeing them in the third timeline, fully formed, with horror motifs and covered in fur. You’d be mistaken for thinking that you were seeing start and end. Except that… we know, and you know, that Pit Girl is the middle. These monsters somehow came back from this. How? When they’re so so so far gone?

Hence the show. I know I’m not breaking new ground here, but bear with me. I’m going somewhere.

(Edit: Readmore added because honestly, LONG post)
