i just. I just. I just

basically, Elisa only befriends Addison because they have similar interests and Addison is a major character, and Elisa hopes them being friends will allow Elisa to also become a major character or otherwise break her out of background hell

So, in the first episode of dtr, kalani convinces Elisa that talking about her struggles to Jaden will convince her to help Lani and Elisa get home. So Elisa tells Jaden about Addison and likens it to Jaden’s relationship with Gwen. This backfires. Jaden is pissed off because she can tell Elisa isn’t interested in Addison and instead what Addison can do for her, whereas Addison seems to genuinely care about Elisa. And Elisa can’t even argue back because Jaden *is right*. Sure, Jaden is really harsh about it, but she’s still right.

#elisa (dtr)#jaden (dtr)#kalani (dtr)#even though Jaden does end up helping them it’s more out of just #feeling like it’s the right thing as well as interest in what is going on with the portals #and she makes it clear that that’s why she’s doing this #and isn’t trying to make friends or be a hero #her problem with Elisa isn’t even that she’s self serving. It’s that Elisa is self serving and tries to hide it #like. pretending to care about Addison and taking advantage of Addison’s interest in Elisa #so Elisa can feel validated and happy is understandable but fucked up #and later Elisa does come clean that she never wanted to be Addison’s friend but did it anyway for positive attention #and Addison is of course pissed off that she put so much love and effort into a relationship that the other person saw as just #a means to an end #so yeah :P #addison (dtr)
