hello! i once commissioned you and had the post reblogged but noticed recently that it seems to have been deleted on your end. i was just curious as to why that may be since it made me a little nervous.

Hey there! Sorry to hear this made you nervous - there's really nothing to worry about! :) Like most artists, I go back and clean up my old art and tend to archive pieces that don't hold up quite as well. This is especially true of my commission tag, as I'm aware people might browse it before deciding to commission me! So, even without knowing what piece you commissioned me for, I'm sure it was just an older piece that just didn't stand the test of time as well as I'd like. Hope that clears it up, and thank you for commissioning me!

#nat replies #anonymous #i think going back and archiving older art posts is quite common? i'm definitely one of those cleaning up kind of people

I don't understand why Jackie's team-mates are envious(jealous) of her, .Jackie is just a normal girl, what is there to envy?

an age-old question about popularity, anon!

jackie being a normal girl is part of it, i'd imagine. from the outside jackie has everything that a teen girl is supposed to want or need: wealthy parents, trendy clothes, a long-term boyfriend (break ups notwithstanding), she's pretty, and athletic, popular (she would have won prom queen), gets decent grades (though good or great grades seems more likely since we know she's not the best athlete on the team), has a loyal best friend, and has a leadership role in her chosen club. from the outside, what isn't there to envy about jackie?

especially when you look at her teammates, most of whom have something "wrong" with them compared to the above list. natalie has abusive and neglectful parents and does drugs to cope with her trauma, while jackie barely seems to drink. misty is an outsider who can't connect with anyone, but jackie is popular and a leader and so good at it that she even makes misty feel welcome. shauna struggles to assert herself and go after what she wants, but jackie tells her what to wear and drink and who to date without a second thought. taissa and van are gay women in the 90s, who either weren't out pre-crash (implied) or at the very least weren't dating anyone, and so the ease with which jackie and jeff got together and broke up on repeat must have been so frustrating to watch. lottie falls into many of the same categories as jackie, but while jackie's parents fawn over everything she says and does, lottie eats her meals alone at home and her father "shows love" with jets that take her miles away from him.

we talk about jackie being doomed by the narrative, and she totally is. but she's not just doomed to death; she's doomed to be two-dimensional. yellowjackets is a story about the relationship between a girl and her trauma, and you can't have a relationship when you're dead. like nat says, she's the "lucky one" because she gets to become a symbol (of rules, or social mores, of normalcy and safety) for the rest, instead of struggling alongside them. and what need does a symbol have of complexity? my first paragraph makes a series of assumptions about jackie, any of which could be false. we get glimpses here and there of jackie having feelings and thoughts and concerns that don't align with the things that make her someone to envy, but we don't know. we won't ever know in a way that matters to jackie. anything we learn now will be used to tell us something about the girls who are still alive, because jackie's only real function is to be fodder for them.

#reply #ask #Anonymous #oh look i talked myself back around to saying the girls cannibalize jackie again #i have one speed 🤣 #obligatory disclaimer that there is nothing wrong with any of the girls for the reasons i listed - should be obvious but it is the internet #i really hope i answered you anon and sorry for the extra rambling 😅 i always have more jackie feels than i know what to do with #jackie taylor #~ #wordles #yellowjackets #meta #yellowjackets spoilers #for that one nat quote #yellowjackets meta

[lustrous-dawn]

(asktheisle) A message from an unknown number pops into Lucian's phone, the area code denoting that it's from Alola. A short string of texts follow as:

"Hey! i hope i got Lucian here, i think we traded numbers a while back but i can't really remember"

"anyway, i think i remember you saying it was your birthday around this time? if it is, Happy Birthday!! i know how december birthdays can be, i got one myself"

"hope you have a good day!"

What follows after is a cake emoji, followed by a standard smiling Pikachu emoji

There was no use in catching up with the Umbreon. When she wanted to run, she could run laps around him, leaving him in the dust.

Exhaling sharply, Lucian gave up mid-chase, brushing specks of snow off his pants. “You win this time,” he groused. That was when he finally felt the vibrations in his pocket. Rushing, nearly dropping the phone in the process as he fumbled with it, his eyes shone wet as he stared at the two messages unread. 

“Glad, I can't believe you-” 

The phone suddenly vibrated in his hands, Lucian jerking at the response. He squinted at the Alolan area code of the number before mentally reading the new message prompted on the screen.

Nat! He gave a wide grin. He remembered the trainer upon the islands! How could he ever forget the small Candela?! A slight red on his cheeks. He was so charmed by the new baby Pokemon, that he forgot he had exchanged numbers with the trainer to check in and make sure they were doing ok. Newborns were always a handful to deal with. 

“I remember you said it was your birthday around this time. If so…” Lucian dapped at the wetness in his eyes, obscuring his view. 

“Dammit…” 

He jolted as a new but familiar weight jumped to rest upon his shoulders. Umbra promptly curled around his neck with a purr, staring down at his phone with an inquisitive, intelligent gaze. 

Nat took the time to send a message. Lucian was at a loss for words as his fingers rapidly ran across the phone. 

“...Thank you, Nat. Happy belated birthday.” The message was followed by a small Bunny-like Umbreon face with a cake emoji. “It really meant a lot. We need to talk sometime- HEY” 

Umbra placed her paw across the screen, a bright flash blinding them. Blinking several times, he stared at the silly image of the ridiculous face he had made and Umbra’s nose placed closely. 

Message sent.

Hello! This is the same anon from a few days ago thanking you for the Shaynse inspo. I finished my fic if you want to read it😊 archiveofourown.org/works/53622442

AHHH thank you so much for coming back to let me know!!

I can't currently read it but I know shaynse nation have been crying out for more fics lately so I should share!

Once I read it, I will definitely be leaving a comment🫶🫶

#Sorry to the asks still sitting in my inbox #I will be back #I'm working on something to share as a little apology #No it's not a fic from me I'm sorry lol that's not ready yet #Just the asks I've gotten require quite a reply so I don't want to rush it! #shaynse #shayne topp #chanse mccrary #smosh #smoshblr #smosh fic #smosh ships #shipping #rpf #nat talks

ac... activates what?

LMAO the way I saw this ask before I saw what got spit out of my queue. I was like what did I say this time, I am innocent!! No I'm not. Poetess and prophetess of our time @drunktuesdays got me hooked on activated as a phrase....though she means in a sexy way, I use it to mean anything from "starts my creative engines revving" to "engages the impulse to indulge in my worst behaviors" to "gets me horned up on al gore's internet". In this case Trea Turner's delicate ankles and knobby knees in his compression leggings make me want to [a giant hook pulls me off stage by my neck while an air raid siren goes off]

open starter: bucky barnes

Bucky used to be such a confident guy, he used to have no problem asking women out on dates. But now? He was a completely different man, and although it had been playing on his mind for weeks now, he hadn't found the courage to ask her.

"I was -- I want to take you out for dinner one night." He said as he looked towards the other, feeling himself getting nervous. What had happened to him? "I want to take you on a date, old school date of course. Dinner and ice cream, or a trip to the movies. Hell, we can even go to Coney Island and share a hot dog if you want."

#bonus if you're a nat #part of me is like just marvel muses please #but hey if youre not reply and ill see #indie rp #open rp #open starter #mcu rp #marvel rp

[critter-of-habit]

did you see the (maybe?) nat from the end of the what if trailer? looks like they might be playing into her ballerina backstory from the comics

Oh, oh I sure did see! I'm concerned that this is the only sign we got of her in the whole trailer... but, the in the first season's trailer she only appeared 3 times and ended up having a big role, so I'm staying hopeful!

It looks like a super cute outfit tho tbh can't wait to see it

#If we go the whole season with no Peggy/nat interactions I may cry tho #just a lil #reply #critter rambles

[lottieurl]

GOD YEAH. nat's genuine you hit the nail on the head. absolutely the driving force behind jackie's developing nat derangement too like she's drawn to that soooo much like she pretty much straight up points that part of nat out in the pilot as her compliment towards nat!! not that idea Exactly but more what that is To Jackie. "you're so completely yourself and you don't care what other people think" like YESSS! and also no. because she does absolutely care what people think however she is herself in Spite of that which i don't think jackie like. conceptualizes because i don't think she can envision a world in which she herself still cares what people think of her And is so completely herself in spite of that and that is a whole nother absolutely devastating can of worms i'm not even going to get into. but the whole. jackie nat derangement thing you mentioned in the tags is. yeah. because i am ALWAYS thinking about these two in relation to each other they devastate me individually and when their powers combine..... head in my hands. anyway. GOD. YEAH. nat loves people well and that kind of love coming from that kind of person is SPECIAL. like her heart's on her sleeve and it's an open wound and it's getting blood everywhere and everyone who's around her long enough thinks that's the most alluring thing ever and it's also partly the reason nat's so genuine because she doesn't even know how to hide it. no wonder so many people want to keep nat in their lives like if i knew nat i would too!!!! that kind of person does not come into your life every day and like. god i think one of the most important parts about this to me is that she doesn't SEE that in herself i think. people gravitate towards her and when they do i think there's a part of her that doesn't understand it. and because she doesn't Get it she's always waiting for the other shoe to drop. and like. god. NAT!!!! i've gotten to the point where the thoughts are no longer coherent and it's just her name but. yeah. nat. -cannibal laura lee anon

YES YES YES and i think that's what makes nat dynamics really really good? there's just something about how this Nat Genuineness often makes other characters reveal things about themselves they're either unaware of or hiding. like nat existing in the way that she does invites others to show us their flaws and their insecurities and their fears. we talked before about how s1 lottie was more of a mystery character than a fully fleshed out one and how they're doing a lot of character work with her this season so that we get to see more of her vulnerability, what's right there under the surface no matter the role she takes on or how she's affected by her visions and IN BOTH TIMELINES as we learn all of this we also see the developing lottienat dynamic. there was this post making rounds a while ago about how nat SEES lottie for who she is (especially in that bathtub scene) and not the ideas others project onto her and while that applies to lottie most heavily i do think nat has had the most emotional maturity out of all of them from the start and she does make people feel SEEN. what naturally follows: natalie scatorccio derangement syndrome

#sorry it took me so long to reply to this i was sleeping and then needed to gather my thoughts #DOES this make sense? please let me know if im just saying shit BDJSJSN #it makes sense In My Head #anyways i agree with everything you said literally you are so right #cannibal laura lee anon #yellowjackets blogging #nat #lottie #lottienat #jackie #jackienat #we can cover ALL the dynamics.

my brother in unhinged christopher, i come to you today on bended knee to beseech you: you *must* write that failferal private investigators story that you oh so beautifully outlined in the tags on that yj post

dfkgjhg I finished typing them and was like "gdi now I want to read this." thinking about taissa seriously saying shit like "hey, we do this one by the book. okay?" just because van is watching, as if:

a) that has ever stopped natalie from throwing a chair

b) van's reaction isn't gonna be "uh... what book??"

c) van came to them because a girl is missing and she doesn't think anyone is gonna bother looking for her. natalie is going to throw 927 chairs if she has to (after trying to give up on the case five times)

#nat and tai: world's worst private investigators #me: joy #replies #sarcasticalliespeaking #yellowjackets

Giiirll COD men really have me all "I can fix him". Like König? Just a little fella who needs some love and forgiveness for his war crimes 💞💞 I became what I swore to destroy

Now what do you mean Yuna's getting angst? And like her first official appearance? I beg your pardon? Jail 🫵🏼

And like, an appetiser I may say, but for Koizumi. Her man is gonna be Semi, I thought about it and you know, the whole "Oh I'll take pictures of you on your gigs for your band" or "Let's do a photo shoot together" has potential

And they were bound to get close, look: Tendō teasing Semi, Koizumi going to save him BOOM romance 👌🏼

OH NO I HAVEN'T REPLIED TO THIS 😭

OKOKOKOKOKK

COD men look like they need to be reassembled first then fixed 💀 Cant believe you'll just forgive war crimes like that SMH 🙄 at least have it be just murder if you're going to forgive and forget 😔

AHA YES YUNA IS GETTING SUM ANGST 😈 Her backstory is cooking in the back with some real idol-y issues and more 😌 AND YE HER FIRST OFFICIAL APPEARANCE INTO THE SERIES MIGHT BE ANGST 😍 Or at least her introduction would have implications of it 🤭 I will not stand for this unfair arrest, I'm just building her character, officer 🥺

OOOO She's with Semi boy 🤭🤭🤭 That's such a cute way to meet cause IMAGINE if she had an obvious bias for him so all his shots are so clear and crisp while the others got ok pics 🫢 Tendou was def doing that on purpose or smth 🫣 like I think he might be the secret wingman of everything, I'll wait for more lore to come 🫡

#「✎ Yuu's journal ✎」 #I just replied to this MBBB #BTW the hardest test is over #Now we just got 2 more #Then I'm free to release the milestone event post #Nat I'll be anticipating more lore 🫶
