stop your tags on that jorge post are so funny cause real, he’s actually like here’s my guy casey. here’s my special guy dani. here’s Those Two Weirdos (ignore them like they’re ignoring you). yep, that’s it. no one else comes to mind. thats my gang. cool.

there are four people on this planet jorge fully respects. he has regularly fantasised about strangling three of them. the fourth has regularly fantasised about strangling him. everyone else on this planet is on thin thin ice. valentino and marc are the token two nutjobs he's bizarrely ride-or-die for. he's actively nostalgic about the times they deliberately rode their bikes into him and even jokes about it, somehow. he's been obsessed with dani for years and eventually decided he adored rather than hated that man. he's been obsessed with valentino for years and eventually decided he both adored and hated that man more than he already did both of those things. he started rating casey circa 2011 but as far as he's concerned they're now bonded #forever. he went from trying his best not to hate marc to genuinely not hating marc almost by accident - and now that annoying child is part of the team too. he's gotten into instagram beef with pretty much everyone from all time greats to random current riders to andrea dovizioso. not his crew though... he's the type of guy who would base his new racing number on adding up the numbers of his greatest rivals (apart from the bloke he actually fought for both his 250cc titles). he's the only alien who can truly claim to have managed open animosity with all his fellow aliens and now he just can't get enough of them. he's had several dozen work divorces, but those guys are the only ones he's ever actively decided to un-divorce. they're a team for life. not that you could get them all in the same room together without a gun to their heads and possibly not even then, but apart from that they're a team for life

#sitcom-type hijinks where jorge attempts to organise an anniversary reunion party just for the aliens #extremely elaborate lies to get marc and vale there but he just hires someone to kidnap casey #the anniversary being commemorated is estoril 2008. marc doesn't get it because he hadn't met any of those guys yet #casey doesn't get it because he spent the entire race fighting his demons (the dorna camera that was dangling around loose off his bike)#valentino doesn't get it because he barely remembers the race #jorge Does Not Care #//#brr brr #batsplat responds #i'm ngl the post this was actually a response to... ik what it was but i cannot be bothered to find it #but i was reminded of this ask because i got another one that in an extremely roundabout way is linked...#well it's actually not even remotely linked but the response in my drafts is related to this ask so now what #it is probably quite helpful that really only one alien is the type to beef via instagram after they've retired #like I do find it a wee bit undignified but it is good for the ecosystem that somebody's doing it y'know?#but keeping it to just the one guy is probably for the best. god imagine if they did it to each other it'd be awful #jorge's attitude to vale/marc is basically that one presser clip about the jerez last corner where he's like yeah they're both freaks #he does sometimes sound like he thinks marc and valentino should've gotten over it by now #whats a little blood feud between generational talents like come on... valentino don't you see that's your guy...
