Julie is the kind of girl who scorned "childish" things at a young age - she always wanted to be seen as smarter, cooler, more mature than her peers, and for the most part it worked. It's easy to forget she's a literal teenager in conversation, especially when she's looking down at you like you're the immature one, but reminders can spring up when she's trying to convince you of exactly that - people acting like they know what's best for her is the easiest way to anger her as she fucking hates being patronized or talked down to, her bouts of anger can be likened to tantrums, the product of a child never being taught to manage her anger properly and instead expected to bottle it up.
She's a combination of the way girls are constantly told to grow up too fast and the way teenagers can find themselves down a dangerous path trying to do just that - an attempt to seem both grown-up and have an outlet for the emotions she was ordered to suppress for that very reason.
#〔 MUSING 〕 JULIE#julie is literally the epitome of teen angst#she thinks she's so grown up and mature bc she's into serial killers but she doesn't understand how much her brain is being damaged by it#she wants to be taken seriously but also resents the way she didn't get the chance to fully be a kid#can u guys tell i'm projecting#she's one of the “adults” in the legion in the sense that she's older than susie and probably joey#and arguably she IS more mature than frank#and let's be real the tome implies she's kind of more of a leader than him anyway#but at the end of the day she's a teenage girl
