[nataliesscatorccio]

Like everyone else I am rightfully obsessed with Shauna and Jackie's shared wardrobe, but can we talk for a second also about the very specific jealousy sharing clothes comes with? This experience might not be as universal as I think it is, but: The babyish instinct to want to grab it back and say "mine!" and all the self-conscious thoughts of it looks better on her than it looks on me. Feeling protective over your clothes ("I don't want her to borrow it, she'll mess it up!"), or feeling resentment when your clothes get compliments while someone else is wearing them (the instinct then to laugh awkwardly and deny credit, "thanks! it's actually hers.") And even larger scale! That strange push for competition when two girls show up wearing the same outfit. Who wore it better?

All this to say buried under the love stored in wearing the butterfly tops and sharing the flannels and saving the virginity dress there is also that distinctly meaner and pettier voice of a ghost in Shauna's ear saying "did you ask if you could borrow that?" saying "you're going to ruin it." saying "it looked better on me." saying "hey! that's mine!"

The brief and amazing moment in the pilot when Jackie is suggesting outfits to Shauna speaks to this too. Shauna's frustration at finding anything of her own that's suitable. Wear the red dress I gave you! It's such a sincere suggestion. But it's Jackie's old dress. It's Jackie's suggestion. Shauna knows when she puts it on the cruel voice in her head that sounds a lot like Jackie will remind her all night that it isn't really her dress, and Jackie wore it better anyway, and every compliment she gets will be politely redirected to Jackie. "Thanks. It was hers." (This sentiment echoes into infinity).

Then we have Jackie's funeral, and the ferocity with which Shauna insists Jackie keep her clothes. Sure, for the humanity and the dignity of it. But just as much, how could she bear to see Natalie or Akilah or Mari or Misty or anyone else walk around in Jackie's shoes? She didn't want to borrow Jackie's clothes. (I kind of doubt she wanted Jackie to borrow hers either). Nor did she want Jackie's whole hand-me-down life. But fuck if she was going to donate it to Goodwill for just anyone to take, and it wasn't like she was satisfied with her own.

I think of this The Haunting of Hill House post via @2008hondacivic and of Twin Peaks' Laura Palmer yelling "Don't ever wear my clothes!" at Donna. Don't ever become me! But also, there is so little left of me, and That's Mine! Give it back! I'm sure they wish they could.

I was a bit nervous starting this appreciation week, since this was the first time I've ever hosted one of these, but I was absolutely blown away by the response, and the talent that this fandom has. It was so much fun seeing everybody's creations, and the creative ways some of the prompts were interpreted. The love and adoration for the source material just poured out, and I loved every minute of it.

Thank you to everyone who participated, whether you did all days or one, you all made it such a rewarding experience. I had planned to link all the wonderful creations here, but we created so much that tumblr won't allow that many links in a post, so instead you can find them all here. Go check them all out, see if there's any you missed, give them all some love.

I sat on this for weeks and lost track of the post on @staghunters's blog (sorry, Nina!) but she tagged me in a meme where the idea was to do a song I like for each letter in my URL, then tag a number of people equal to the number of letters. My URL has twenty-six letters in it so I'll do my best to scrounge up that many people I think might be interested!

M: "Mother," Florence and the Machine

O: "One Song at a Time," Mark Knopfler

N: "Non sofre Santa Maria," which a ton of great early music groups have done; I found out about the text it's in, Cantigas de Santa Maria by King Alfonso X of Castile, from a group called Ensemble Decameron, but I don't think they've done this one in particular

S: "Stranger," Vampire Weekend

T: "These Foolish Things," lots of people but I really like Greta Keller's version

R: "Romeo and Juliet," Dire Straits

O: "Other Side," Metric

U: "Un di, felice, eterea," Giuseppe Verdi (from La traviata)

S: "Slow Boat to China," lots of people but I really like Joni James's version

G: "Gondola no uta," Baisho Chieko's rendition of which I especially love

O: "Our Song," Taylor Swift

U: "Utakata," Pink Lady

R: "Reversion (Desire)," Nakamori Akina

M: "Morning Elvis," Florence and the Machine

A: "Atlantic City," Bruce Springsteen

N: "Night and Day," lots of versions but I really like the one from Ella Fitzgerald Sings the Cole Porter Song Book

D: "Disposer supreme and Judge of the earth," which hymnary.org says is by someone called Jean-Baptiste de Santeul and, in its English form, someone called Isaac Williams

I: "Idumea," apparently a Charles Wesley hymn (Hymns Georg) according to hymnary.org

Z: "Zero and Blind Terry," Bruce Springsteen

I: "In questa reggia," Giacomo Puccini (from Turandot)

N: "Nanpasen," Nakamori Akina

G: "Get Out of My House," Kate Bush

C: "Celebrate," Metric

A: "Alone," Moritaka Chisato

T: "Ti voglio bene, Minnie," Giacomo Puccini (from La fanciulla del West)

S: "Seven," Taylor Swift
