#and since jackie kept doing everything except directly apologizing and making real efforts of correcting her wrongs it only strengthened

I've been thinking more abt raccoon universe Olivia again and I love her sm she's so fun imagine if your wife plagiarized years of your work and then cut you out of her life with no warning and then had the audacity to invite you to work at the company she founded on the basis of the very work she stole from you. Id have considered murder Way sooner than she did Jackie is lucky Olivia went with the thinly veiled threats route for several years before finally getting a bit bloodthirsty

#rat rambles #oni posting #raccoon uni jackie is such a desperate dumbass like girl if your ex who you stole from went this long without publically calling you out #dont fucking invite her to work under you that is not going to fix shit and in fact will make things Way worse #she Did feel incredibly guilty abt what she did to olivia but not nearly enough to have not done it and to actually try to fix shit #and she was even stupid enough to think that olivia might have been willing to let it go when she agreed to work at gravitas #olivia was still clearly pissed at her but at first she was trying to not express it directly so she wouldn't get immediately fired #she needed to become too intregral to the company and to jackies work to be easily disposable #and as she climbed the ranks and contributed more and more to gravitas she slowly became more and more aggressive towards jackie #and as jackie picked up on it more and more she began to freak out more and more #at first she tried to throw more money and resources at olivia as an extension of she shitty attempt at an apology but that didnt help ofc #in fact it mostly just made things worse for jackie as it became abundantly clear that olivia wasnt just still mad but also vengeful #she severely underestimated how much she hurt olivia both professionally and personally #because from olivias perspective jackie didnt just steal her work she also spent years love bombing her and using her only to stab her in #the back the second she stopped being useful #and jackie was the first proper friend and then girlfriend that olivia had ever had and without jackie she had no one to fall back on #and jackie knew this olivia Knows she knows #so even though it was a impulsive decision on jackie's part olivia had no way of knowing that and every reason to feel horribly betrayed #and since jackie kept doing everything except directly apologizing and making real efforts of correcting her wrongs it only strengthened #that narrative to olivia and helped bring her deep stewing rage to a roiling boil #olivia obsessive spiral would reach smth of a tipping point once she realized that jackie had become scared of her #the feeling of having that sort of power over jackie after decades of her being worlds out of reach was intoxicating #and at times olivia hated it. no matter how justified she felt there was always a part of her who hated that she had become someone who was #toying with her prey and enjoying it #but that part of her had already spent years being slowly suffocated by the rage that had come to define her life #jackie and their research weren't just important to olivia they were her Life #and with them gone and stolen from her it left her with nothing but her emotions
