which yellowjackets characters best correspond to the atla characters? or alternatively, wwtgd (what would the gaang do) if their plane crashed in the yellowjackets woods en route to nationals 💛
now THIS is what im talking about!! I already answered the second thing here but the first part is fun too
sokka has big coach ben energy. he doesn’t even know how good he has it, what with his both legs, and lack of misty. he may not have much else going for him, but at least there’s that.
taissa = azula = taissa = azula 👀
I think katara and mai both give nat for different (perhaps even opposite) reasons, but this is a compliment to both/all of them bc I love nat
yue is actually who lottie and laura lee both thought the other was lmfao
suki and akilah fulfill the same role in the narrative (kyoshi warriors are basically the girl scouts of avatar) (if akilah gets a meatier* arc in s2 watch this take age like milk!) (*no pun intended)
ty lee is like if jackie was actually That Bitch instead of just a useless popsicle (rip girl)
I’m gonna say toph is van just bc they’re both baby butches w goalie energy, but aang also has van energy tbh <33
I guess zuko would... also be nat.
no one in atla is quite as deranged as shauna or (especially) misty. there’s only one misty ❤️ and thank god for that!

it's not that hard, it's like shucking an oyster.
initial sketches under the cut!
i think i lost a bit of the intensity in the final but 🤷♀️

i have too many thoughts on the deleted jackienat scene for a girl who's supposed to be enjoying her birthday lol. i think at the root of it all, it's highly likely that when the actresses breathed life into the characters, and scenes got improvised, some things just stopped making sense for characters to do. including good things, like with jackie's 'i love you' to shauna! and i think this is the case for natalie looking at jackie with hatred before leaving her out in the cold. maybe at one point in her early stages of characterization it made sense, but clearly the people on the show didn't think that way anymore at some point, hence the cut. also ngl people taking this deleted scene, which for all we know didn't even make it into the final script, as some sort of 'gotchu' for jackienat enjoyers ( romantic or otherwise ) is weird as hell to me. like, it was removed for a reason.

jackie: there are some people i have to talk to. you, go ahead and mingle.
shauna: mingle?
jackie: you know, have an interaction that's not agenda driven. a conversation instead of an interrogation.
shauna: why?
jackie: you need some practice on your small talk.
shauna: i know how to make small talk.
jackie: sometimes you're confrontational.
shauna: am not.
jackie: like right now.
shauna: i am not.

I dont quite know how Oc Sunday works but here's my oc Yam! I was really really inspired by your art and Gene, so it's a bit similar but I hope you like it!
I don't have everything worked out yet but here we go!
Yam is from Pokemon Y and is a serena stand-in. She is in a relationship with shauna. She was also kind of killed by yveltal. Instead of being healed by Xerneas, yveltal just takes away her ability to die after it comes to its senses. So yam is in a coma, being healed and rehealed cuz even though she can't die, she still has energy from the oblivion wing stuck in her body and its still causing damage. Shauna and calem rush to search kalos for Xerneas so yam can be a functional living being. When they find Xerneas, it misinterprets their wish to heal yam and gives a peice of itself to shauna, so now shauna is immortal too, with the ability to heal and grow plants. (The exact qoute from my notes is... "Shauna being the chosen one of Xerneas cuz life and death bla bla gay")
That's most of what I have so far! I'm still working on it and am watching the anime rn for more ideas! (That's where the whole giving shauna nature magic comes from! The diancie movie!)
The drawing here is Yams outfit from the beginning of the game until the ultimate weapon. After that my idea is to have her colors get darker until post game where instead of orange and brown, she's red and black! I dont have that drawn yet though. On her hat is a flower like the one eternal flower floette carries
oh my god I'm living for this, I LOVE when characters' outfits change depending on their circumstances and also she's adorable!! I really love the orange color scheme she's starting with, it's so bright and cute 😭😭😭
man, that's a lot of pressure on shauna, I hope she's able to heal her gf and be okay emotionally herself, and that they can watch fireworks again together and be healing 😭😭😭
(AZ real?? AZ story role real??? if they're all immortal rn can they like. be friends or maybe try to be less immortal together?? 👀👀👀)

i think the failure of the yellowjackets approach and (to an extent, because it absolutely doesn't land perfectly all the time) success of the umbrella academy approach to the "teens in life-changing danger must reconnect all grown up" plot is that yellowjackets contains very grounded concepts treated with almost TOO much *oomph* and TUA contains very elaborate concepts that it treats elaborately. with yellowjackets whenever there's ten different chaotically overlapping plots i just get annoyed that they can't stick with one or two, settle down and really stew in them, whereas when there's ten different chaotically overlapping plots on the bad sibling show im like yeah comic book. that's exactly where you're supposed to be . but no that's not it actually. still thinking out loud. it's that yellowjackets sometimes deviates from its central question which is 'how do we live the rest of our lives with Who We Became Out There' to do other stuff that doesn't connect well and comes off over-the-top because it's disconnected. but TUA's central question is 'how do we live the rest of our lives with Who We Became Because Of Dad' and absolutely every single poor decision they make or relationship they bungle or disaster they fail to avert comes right back to that question no matter how wacky a path it takes to get there

Are the adult flashforwards segments of Yellowjackets good/worth watching?
they are necessary to watch to fully understand the show and the adult plot points have some good moments but the adult plotlines is the thing i like the least about yellowjackets. the majority of it is boring, pointless filler just padding out the run time but occasionally it gets really interesting and delves into their survivor guilt, the trauma they endured, and how they changed as people. skipping it would leave you confused, at the very least watch the adult flashforward scenes for christina ricci
