like yeah hatchetfield is full of star crossed lovers etc etc but let’s talk about how it’s also full of DOOMED SIBLINGS. jane has to die for any number of timelines to exist, and losing her is the direct cause for emma’s role in any number of stories (not to mention everyone else who was affected…); after feeling like her diametric opposite for so long the only thing emma can do is settle in their hometown to find some kind of meaning in all of it. lex is the reason hannah is alive, but what does that mean if hannah’s birth is the event that split the timelines? if all lex wants is to provide for and protect her sister, but events spin beyond their control and make their situation all the worse? hannah can see beyond their world, she knows the end so to speak, but what can she do? how can she protect lex when she barely understands it herself? ted and pete care about each other, but their respective ages and ted’s curse mean their paths cross for too short a time to really appreciate each other, ted being ready to strike out on his own when pete is born, and being gone by the time pete is, with them never having the crucial moments you get when you go through things together. they, at the risk of sounding unbearably on the nose, didn’t have the time. and that’s not even getting into whatever happened with webby and the lords in black; whatever betrayal or split happened to have her working against all five of them, the brothers spreading discord and destruction while she stands alone protecting the world… it’s all so deeply, cosmically tragic

always remember that Jane Perkins canonically had her whole life planned out in one of these bad boys

[miss-holloday]

Some little canon tidbits from the 8 hour Nerdy Prudes Must Die livestream that y’all missed/ forgot about:

1. Jane Perkins’ was Linda Monroe’s friend and therapist

2. Jane, Gerald, and Linda all went to U of M

3. Matt Lang refers to himself as the God of the Universe and says Tom and Becky are meant to be together

5. Becky Barnes grew up with a THICK Scottish? Accent.

6. CCRP (Paul, Bill, Ted, and Charlotte’s company) are experimenting on them in order to harness the power of the Lords in Black. They don’t need a tech department… especially not one full of people who are very bad at technology. (For example, Paul 23 and Android Emma in Forever & Always)

7. Paul and Emma will always find each other, even if they’re an identical copy like a robot or a clone.

haven't rewatched Jane's a Car in a while. this is how it goes right.

I love the idea that Jane was the only psychiatrist in hatchetfield because that's the reason everyone at hatchetfield is mentally ill, because the only psychiatrist is dead and also an insane car

The same goes for Gary being the only lawyer. He talks that fast because he lives in a town where people keep getting murdered, people go missing all the time and others call him for any minor inconvenience, he talks fast because he has no time.

happy international women’s day to all my favorite ladies including: baristas who love weed, incredibly stressed out office workers, cult leading karens, psychic autistic tweens, girls who hate their retail jobs, nurses who have killed two people, alt girls down bad for tiny nerds, sex-obsessed lighting techs, deeply unhinged fundamentalists, executive assistants who moonlight as serial killers, ghosts possessing their husband’s cars, camp counselors with dark secrets, serial-killing Boy Moms(TM), retro diner owning witches, and british nobles who are secretly monsterfuckers.

I’ve been thinking about Tom Houston a lot recently. Just imagining the night of the accident, it’s literally Christmas time, everything is going so well, until flash…bang. And he’s disoriented, but his first instinct is to check if Tim is okay, but when he looks to his right, there’s Jane, dead body just sitting there. And Tom can’t even process anything, it all feels so unreal. The cops come to aid and ask questions, but Tom is just trying to wake Jane up and she won’t budge. Then she’s rolled off away by the cops and Tim is probably shaking and crying.

And after that it’s all hell. He quits shop class, he quits being the Nighthawks coach. Emma comes to Hatchetfield at the announcement of her sisters death and funeral, and Tom probably can’t even face her at first, knowing that she might be boiling with rage. He then can barley eat or sleep, and when he does he’s having constant nightmares, or swearing he sees Jane at night. Not to mention he can’t even look at a car for some time without shaking and triggering his PTSD. Their house is stone cold quiet for weeks and it drives Tom to utter insanity. There’s so much unspoken yet visible pain that he gets a therapist for Tim, and maybe for some time, Tom goes to get therapy himself, but it doesn’t help. Thinking about the amount of times he and his son have sat in painful silence, how he desperately wants to help him but feel he can’t reach him. Like they’re sitting at the now quiet dinner table, and Tom wants to say something….fucking anything to comfort his son, but he can’t. He sees the sadness and loneliness in Tim’s eyes and it breaks him, he can’t take it. The guilt gets to him, he ruined his sons life, he ruined Emma’s life, he ruined Jane, he killed her, he killed his family, and he’s nothing without Jane. For awhile he wonders if Tim hates him now, and that self loathing part of him wishes he did.

Tom then just gets more miserable and depressed by the day. He starts putting walls up and begins to grow angry and bitter, pushing people like Emma away cause he feels he doesn’t deserve anyone, not even Tim. And I feel like Tim is also trying to reach him, trying to tell his dad that he needs emotional support and WANTS it from him, but Tom is so caught up in self loathing that he can’t notice, he’s so scared and worried, worried that he isn’t what Tim needs because he isn’t doing anything right and making things worse, yet he doesn’t know that he’s exactly what Tim needs. And it takes SO long for Tom to get back on his feet again and actually feel alive, feel like he WANTS to live instead of wishing he was the one who died instead of Jane. I just know it was an incredibly painful amount of months for everyone after her death.
