it's so funny bc Cat and Laila definitely know what's up but they won't say anything to Jean bc Jeremy is their friend and they respect his privacy, whereas in the Foxhole Court, Nicky was spilling the beans about the Tilda's death and Andrew's meds and literally anything he knows bc he wants Neil to like him. we never really had to wonder for too long

shaking the gate to Jeremy's trauma like "Let us innnn"

jeremy so far has been the most avoidant pov in the world because what the hell are his issues? he's not even looking directly at them he's looking around them or focusing on everyone else's issues so he doesn't acknowledge his own

like with neil there was immediate acknowledgement with the memory of his mother's burning corpse but jeremy? nothing. is it parental issues? sibling issues? self issues? why was he in therapy? did he do something? did something happen to him? who knows? he does but he's not gonna look at all that when he can look at jean instead

jeremy is neil's 'i'm fine' personified times ten thousand he's so fine he doesn't even need to say it

#the sunshine court spoilers #hes so real for that

A wild cat and a fox isn’t the usual pair of best friends but this duo was discovered by fishermen on the shores of Lake Van in Turkey and have been together for over a year. Locals say their inseparable. Article.

thinking about jean being a nail biter. he often bites them down to the quick & it hurts but he doesn’t let that bother him too much.

when he’s with the trojans, cat notices jean’s nails are a mess and casually brings up that she began painting her nails to help stop biting them when she was really anxious or stressed or upset.

so the next time cat is doing her nails in the living room and jean walks by, she offers to paint his. jean is very hesitant at first but jeremy is there too. of course jeremy goes “c’mon jean, i’m sure it’ll look really good!” & jean gives in after that. cat chooses a grayish blue because “it’ll match with your eyes” (later on, when jean glances in a mirror and quickly holds up a hand to see, jean agrees that it does).

and it does help jean!!! jean starts not biting his nails as much! and eventually he starts asking cat to paint his nails red & gold before their games 💕

i'm thinking about jean and his magnets and postcards again and it seriously breaks my heart. the way he pulled out that first postcard and his heart sank when he saw the writing was blotted out and how he desperately spread them all out trying to find any still salvageable. and then the bear missing a piece and the hope that maybe the missing bit was at the bottom of the box but there was nothing there so it would never be fixed. like they knew it was his favourite and purposely left it irreparable.

and i need to know so many things!!! like when was the first time kevin gave him each of them?? what made him think of jean and pick them up?? what had he written on the back of the postcards??

what did jean think and feel when kevin first gave him them??? did he clutch them desperately in his hand?? bc it had been so long since anyone had given him anything after he'd been snatched from his home and come to the nest empty handed and reduced to a number. did he immediately display them proudly in his room?? or did he keep them hidden at first?? afraid that riko or someone else would take them away from him.

why was the bear with the beret his favourite??? what if it's because kevin handed it to him a stupid smile on his face saying "this one reminded me of you" and jean looks at it skeptically and says "why?? bc of the beret and i'm french?" and kevin just snickers a little and jean rolls his eyes and kevin says something teasingly in french newly taught by jean and jean feels something pull at his chest and he clutches the magnet tighter and says a curt thank you but every time he looks at it he'll remember how kevin smiled at him and how for a second they felt like normal kids and not helpless caged animals. and then he gets them back and they're broken and ruined but they're the only thing he's truly owned in so long so of course he will keep then forever even if he can't bear to look at them anymore. even if the thought of them damaged and destroyed makes him sick to his stomach.

and then!! and then there's jeremy who notices when jean's gaze lingers on the magnets on cat and laila's fridge and gets all excited when he spots jean's collection and tells him they can make room on the fridge and isn't aware of the sadness jean probably has to force down when he tells him they don't stick anymore and how jeremy automatically assumes it's because they were well-worn and sentimental bc he has no idea how much they meant to jean and how they were used as a way to get to him to hurt him.

my heart hurts it really hurts thinking about it. i really hope the trojan's start gifting him some and he starts a new collection and idk maybe jeremy learns the truth about what happened to them and tries his best to fix them up again or even searches desperately to find the same ones and maybe kevin hears about it too and starts sending jean new ones whenever he travels so that one day jean will think of those old ones or even see them up on his fridge or in a drawer and he won't feel an ache in his chest anymore.

the foxhole court takes place in 2006-2007, which means that at one point Allison must have told Nicky that he was acting like a bitch and Nicky replied with the iconic comeback "a bitch is a dog. a dog barks. bark is on a tree. trees are part of nature, and nature is beautiful. so thank you for calling me beautiful :)" and then Allison immediately smacked him

“neil is an unreliable narrator… blah blah”

“jean is an unreliable narrator… blah”

NO

jeremy is the most unreliable narrator EVER

he focuses on everything and everyone BUT himself

#the sunshine court spoilers #i feel like none r unreliable in the normal sense? #like they dont lie to us they just tell the truth as best they personally know #i mean yeah maybe jeremy but thats lies of commission #omission* #i feel like that is genuinely how his mind works he refuses to think about like 10 things at all times #and sometimes he has a thought that alludes to the thing hes not thinking about but he quickly shuts it down #its iconic actually
