reasons i will never forgive the showrunners if they don't at least acknowledge jjpope by the end of s3
featuring: ✨✨✨queerbaiting✨✨✨
wearing each other's clothes:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
jj taking every opportunity ever to touch pope (god there are SO many more examples too):
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
jj getting sexual with, to, or about pope and ONLY pope, ever:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
INTRICATE RITUALS:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(with coincidentally well timed lyrics right as it cuts to this scene sorry not sorry editing choices like that are done for a reason)
jj very often gazing at his lips instead of his eyes while talking to him:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(seconds before going in for the kiss)
jj constantly putting himself between pope and danger or being protective of him:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
KISSING:
Tumblr media
INTIMATE NECK KISSING IN A HOT TUB FOR WHICH THERE IS NO HETEROSEXUAL REASON FOR????:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I RAN OUT OF ROOM FOR IMAGES BUT LETS NOT FORGET ALSO
how jj has quite a few pet names for pope but no one else, how pope and jj are almost always paired off together, how jj has explicitly said 'i love you' to pope TWICE, how jj calms pope down when he starts spiraling, how jj and pope have more physical contact and affection than the two romantic leads, how jj is supposed to be a manho from how he's introduced and yet the opening shot is the one and only time we've seen him with someone in a romantic or sexual manner. how about the multiple accounts of people sharing gifs of them to people who have never seen the show with 0 context provided and damn near every time the consensus is 'they are not straight/they are hitting on each other'. I've covered most of this before. the list goes on.
we could even get into film editing choices from the perspective of my bestie who has a degree in that very field and how SO many of their scenes are shot, lit, scored, and all around edited with romantic intent,.
but then wait, there's more! how about how multiple members of the cast (including rudy!!) have stated they support the ship and think it's cute? or how multiple netflix socials heavily suggested jjpope was going to be canon? how so many of the key jjpope moments were improv that could have been cut and redone (like the fucking hot tub scene) if they didn't want it going in a possible homo direction??? or how jjpope was the first major ship to come out of obx BECAUSE of such heavy handed subtext?? and then the showrunners have the audacity to pivot to jiara at the last second because of a handful of fucking rabid stans that harassed the cast so severely it drove most of them off of socials??? with the paper thin excuse of 'oh we never expected that lets explore it'???????????
and whats the definition of queerbaiting again? "Queerbaiting is a marketing technique for fiction and entertainment in which creators hint at, but then do not depict, same-sex romance or other LGBTQ+ representation. The purpose is to attract ("bait") a LGBTQ+ or straight ally audience with the suggestion or possibility of relationships or characters that appeal to them."
right.
i still have a sliver of hope that their 'exploration' of jiara is just like, 2 episodes of them giving it a shot and realizing they actually suck together. i still have hope they aren't gonna do us so blatantly dirty and might give us something even if it's just crumbs. most of the cast are loud and proud queer allies, the showrunners have so far been pretty fucking cool and extremely supportive of the queer community, even refusing to film in north Carolina because of transphobic bathroom laws. it would feel especially dirty if they really did bait us because of that. but man. MANNN. it just ain't looking good. i'd hate to give up on the show. i love it and love the actors even more but if they do it, i might just have to.

me explaining how jj and kie’s scenes were awkward and uncomfortable on purpose as a directing choice because they’re setting up jjpope s4 endgame

YES !! i am so crazy about submissive bottom jj like he just screams that since the first episode. him being so outspoken and confident on the outside but deep down he is a needy bottom that needs to be cared for🥺🥺
and pope being the cute nerd on the outside but deep down hes the dominant top
I NEED THEIR ENDGAME NOW
I need more people to write bottom jj more. It seems like a lot of people misunderstand his and pope’s dynamic
and yes pope showed multiple times that the minute he’s serious he act so dominant. Like his kiss with kie.. I like to think pope has more of a dominant side to him

it’s the way even if jjpopes lost we still won in the end because jiara’s scenes were so bland and forced
