yellowjackets to me is at its core, about being a girl. it is about being a teenage girl and the horror that comes with it. it’s about how the trauma of your youth can follow you until you die, if you let it.
yellowjackets is about finding your coven. yellowjackets is about spending the rest of your life without a home. yellowjackets is about the girl you never had the courage to kiss. yellowjackets is about the violence that comes with trying to be good. yellowjackets is about survival. yellowjackets is about being forced to smile for the camera with the same teeth you use to tear through your lover. yellowjackets is about being a girl. yellowjackets is about having to face the worst parts of yourself.

whatever do you do, don’t think of
travis and javi’s mother. their mother learning they recovered the plane that crashed a year and a half ago.
that woman thinking she lost everything that ever mattered to her.
don’t think of her gassing up the car to the airport. don’t think of her running out to greet the survivors. don’t think of travis locking eyes with her.
don’t think of her dropping to her knees, don’t think of travis holding her. don’t think of him knowing that javi is in him.
don’t think of him going home. going into his baby brother’s room and vomitting for hours. don’t think of him trying to explain why there is no corpse.
don’t think of him giving his mother her husband’s ring.
don’t think of the wood animal carvings being the only thing he can show to prove he had a brother.
and most importantly, don’t think of the fact that
bill martinez died scared. died reaching out for his son.
javi martinez died scared. reaching out for his friend.
and travis, inevitably died scared. reaching out for his prophet.

hello friends, i wanted to ask a question!!
i am a semi fem presenting person, i am AFAB and use she/they pronouns. But, i have started to get small weird feelings about my gender and i kind of want to see how it feels to be referred to as male? and like have people referring to me in a masculine way. I thought tumblr would be the best bet for this since there is a lot of queer people here and y’all don’t know who i am IRL? i just wanted to know if this is insensitive or like offensive to the trans community

Cut off your wings, angel.
i won’t stop you.
Go ahead and leave your pearlescent feathers scattered on my bathroom floor.
Angel, you can rip your throat out
Let the ruptured vocal cords clog up my drain.
It’s alright.
Angel, you can banish your sisters.
shred our scrapbooks for all I care.
But it does beg the question, Angel.
What is left?
Angel, who will mourn you when they tear this house down?
Angel, when every polaroid is turned to ash who will remember you as you are?
Angel, if this is the life you desire, please live it.
But how far do you suppose you’ll go without wings?
What song will ring true without a larynx?
Who will you call in the middle of the night?
Who will hold you when those men do not?

lottie asks the girls to listen.
to listen to the wind, to the trees, to tell each other what they can hear.
when tai and shauna finally start to listen, to hear the call of the wilderness that lottie is devoted to
it is during the hunt,
when they can’t hear their prey.
they begin to listen.
to close their eyes and
let the shaking trees and cold air
guide them to
their old friend,
or next meal.
not that there is any difference.
but it begs the question,
if lottie knew it took such violence to get the girls to hear her,
would she have even spoke at all?
