im of the strong opinion that shauna shipman should have had an affair with a woman💯

[hauntsthenarrative]

Blessed be the Daughters of Cain

Bound to suffering eternal through the sins of their fathers committed long before their conception

Blessed be their whore mothers, tired and angry waiting with bated breath in a ferry that will never move again

Blessed be the children, each and every one come to know their god through some senseless act of violence

Blessed be you, girl, promised to me by a man who can only feel hatred and contempt towards you

I am no good nor evil, simply I am, and I have come to take what is mine

I was there in the dark when you spilled your first blood

I am here now as you run from me still

Run then, child

You can't hide from me forever

one of the themes of yellowjackets that i haven’t been able to stop thinking about is cycles of violence, which i think we particularly see in two ways: inter-generational trauma, and this idea of violence as a tool of forgiveness.

starting with inter-generational trauma, i love what yj has done with this. there are so many different examples: van’s relationship with her mom, which liv hewson has said impacts the way they play the character (in particular her relationship with tai), and which i think is especially important given that van’s mom was an alcoholic and now we’ve seen this suggestion that van may or may not have some kind of addiction problem herself. tai’s trauma which manifests itself in sleepwalking, which she never fully dealt with, and now has directly passed onto her child - arguably largely because she refuses to face it. shauna’s relationship with callie, the way she’s treated her child as accomplice, distant yet also expecting callie to fill in the role jackie might have had if everything had happened differently; still processing the trauma of her wilderness birth which leaves her unable to be fully present for callie. lottie’s relationship with her parents, natalie’s experience with abuse, there’s so much i could go into with this.

but in particular, i think one of the most interesting ways this manifests is in the way lottie passes her beliefs and practices - shaped by this unspeakable trauma, shaped by her experience in a mental hospital in a foreign country, shaped by the ways she’s failed and how nobody has taken her seriously - onto the members of her “community”. dozens of people living their lives on a foundation lottie has built out of her pain.

and this is also the clearest place we’ve seen lottie express this belief in violence as a way to achieve forgiveness. when she tells lisa to stab natalie, to take her anger out on the cause, just as she offered herself up as a sacrifice to shauna 25 years ago. i certainly agree with others that lottie can be manipulative, but i think in this regard she’s genuine - she believes that she’s found a solution, but she blinds herself to the fact that she’s caught in her own cycle, that intentionally or not the people around her have been caught in this same cycle. misty couldn’t save crystal/kristen, so she lets javi die to save another friend. nat can’t save javi, so she saves lisa at the cost of herself - but misty can’t save natalie this time, and the cycle continues, because the cost of using violence to find forgiveness is that somebody will end up harmed, somebody won’t be able to stop it, and the burden of guilt is simply passed on.

to me this is such a fascinating idea that i’ve never really seen explored before, and on some level i know that it will only get so much worse as more shit goes down and more people can’t be saved. if this is the principle the yellowjackets are living by, they’re all accruing a lot of fucking guilt. and i most certainly see how constantly trying to outrun this guilt, caught in a trap of committing more violence and acquiring more guilt to escape what you’re already carrying, could bury a person.

Jeff seriously breaks my heart when he tells Callie about the baby. It’s the first time he really talks about it. He reassures Shauna that he loves her even knowing everything but he still doesn’t talk about it until he is comforting Callie and offering a little insight to her about why Shauna is so fucked up aside from the major fuckin ptsd symptoms you see her still having 25 year later. But I have rewatched a few times now and Jeff just looks broken because he loves shauna and he knows she’s out of control and struggling and he stands by her but he was so afraid about Callie being involved because now both of his children have had been extremely traumatized by their mother and the wilderness and it’s power it has over them. He’s already lost his son and now Callie is at risk. Warren Kole truly understands the assignment when it comes to this show. Can’t wait for next season!

Callie Yellowjackets is so hard to write. Which is why I'm so behind on my JackieShauna weekend entry.

[nestaenthusiast]

I have this theory that another Yellowjacket in the Wilderness we haven’t see yet is named Callie. Shauna and her fall in love because Callie comforts her through her baby and Jackie’s death but then she dies too so Shauna names her daughter after her.

[natsboygirlfriend]

callie relates to emails I can't send (the song)

[hauntsthenarrative]

y'all i got told that i looked like Callie Sadecki i'm so happy rn

this shit crazy bc then the "you ate my baby" would come true. im acc going to be sick bro if callie takes her place omg.

everyone who finds the queen card dies, and i have a theory about it

we all made the connection that since javi was first to find the queen card that’s why he died instead of nat, but i don’t think that situation was specific to javi. it’s more like a cycle.

whoever holds the queen card is next in line to die, but i don’t think you’ll die until the next person pulls it. holding the card is almost like putting your death on hold until your time is up (think of it like a relay race, only as long as you’re holding the baton- the queen card- you’re fine, but as soon as it’s passed to someone else, that’s when your time is up and you die and the cycle continues)

and that means shauna’s going to die next.

at the beginning, the deck of cards was missing a queen until javi found it one day. time goes on and he somehow impossibly survives the winter all on his own, and that’s because his time wasn’t up yet… UNTIL, natalie pulls the card.

so now natalie is the new cardholder, she tries to khs but that get intervened, again- because her time isn’t up yet. but as soon as shauna pulls the card, natalie gets killed. it’s all a cycle and shauna is next.

((i think it’s also possible that callie takes her place, to do with that theory that pit girl actually takes place in the present instead of the past))

[lesbianforlottie]

age accurate yellowjackets cast is making me feel rly depressed rn

[lesbianjackies]

“callie shipman” “callie taylor” “callie taylor-shipman” well no actually because the tragedy of callie sadecki is that she is not a taylor, and she is not a shipman, and she will never be either. she will always live in the shadow of a girl she never met and a baby she never knew, she will always be a reminder to her mother of the things she lost and the mistakes she made and the life she’ll never get to have.

her name is callie sadecki. because no matter how hard she tries, she will never be anything more to shauna than the unwanted child of a man she never loved.

[consume-me-you-coward]

YELLOWJACKETS THEORY: (pretty much unconfirmed canon tbh)

JACKIE FAKED HER DEATH TO GET OUT OF PAYING CHILD SUPPORT FOR CALLIE AFTER THEY DID IT RAW

My evidence: >>>

She is clearly JackieShauna’s love child, the casting department honestly made it a little too obvious if I'm being honest, like she has Shauna’s colouring but that’s Jackie’s face
