A Jesslake sideblog! Mostly gushing, possible chance of ficlets. hc pronouns for Lake are she/they and I will interchange accordingly.

I love that the fandom has come to associate Jesse with loving vampires. We have like, one picture of him and his brother dressed as vampires for Halloween, and he frequently names animals Dracula. Thats it.

Yet we have collectively decided he knows ALL the vampire lore

This might be obvious, but I feel like it's often misunderstood about Jesse's character.
When confronting the Apex and running away with Lake, his number does not change. They don't get his exit right away, it doesn't appear after this dramatic moment of him standing up for himself and his friend.
"But Yellow! It's about the pacing! It's about the drama of them running away!"
Wrong!
For one, Jesse's problem isn't that he can't stand up for himself. Because he can! And he shows us this!
Tumblr media
"It looks like your punching wasn't doing much good either."
Tumblr media
"I was yelling! It's still my turn to yell!"
He talks back after Lake mocks his approach. He puts his foot down and defends himself.
Tumblr media
"Pft. You would."
He antagonizes Lake after the flecs outted them as a criminal. He doesn't bend to Lake's whims like someone who's spineless.
Tumblr media
"You better not tell mom!"
He doesn't grovel for Nate not to tell their parents. Doesn't promise to make it up to him later, doesn't try to lighten this blow at all. The way someone would if they always played both sides.
Defending himself is not his problem, not really. It's not even just people-pleasing.
Tumblr media
"Don't tell me what to do!"
Tumblr media
"I'm not gonna be a part of anything like this. On or off the train!"
If it was? This would have been the scene Jesse got his exit. There's enough build up for it, we don't need the chase scene before it, we could still have the flex show up after Jesse's exit closed with Lake on the other side.
But it isn't.
Tumblr media
"I've got you. We're getting out of here."
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It's only after he reassures Lake that his number changes. After he promises to stay with them, to side with them.
Jesse's issues were about standing up for others. For defending other people, even when it wasn't convenient. Not about him.

the starshine always kept you warm.
alright so i'm continuing my thing of finishing up old wips, this being one of them. i sketched this out during the #finishinfinitytrain trend, but obviously (sadly) that's well past over. i think. they should finish it anyway. for me
i had sketches for each of the books, but s2 was the one i had the most motivation to finish. i love s2! i think lake being transmasc and having a crush on a boy did a lot for me at the time. i identified differently when i watched it than i do now
the song i picked for this one doesn't quite fit perfectly, like jesse isn't famous or rich or anything assuming the lyrics are from lake's perspective, but i figured jesse's life being comparatively kinder than lake's might make up for that. just the general vibe of having escaped on some level into a better circumstance. it was all kind of accidental though--the background color came before the song did, and the lyrics just kind of popped into my head after that. i was very much going for a summery, warm, out-on-a-hot-afternoon feel, and the entire album is very that
