[aerialflight]

i'm writing a gilmore girls fic that involves paris geller from our pandemic year 2020 going back to 2001, around the time jess first comes in to town. very slow burn between jess/paris. i have around 10k words of snippets all over my doc and an outline and i'm slowly becoming re-obsessed with gilmore girls again. what the fuck is up with this fandom that i keep going back to like an on-and-off again boyfriend??? anyway, i have no idea if i'll ever post this and i've been going back and forth on this for what feels like forever. if this sounds at all interesting, let me know.

Jess is the best boyfriend for Rory because he just fit in so well in her life.

First off, the two have so much in common. From books and music to both having absent fathers, the two fit so well. Yet (as Rory said) they’re not too similar that it’s boring—Rory gets Jess to branch out a bit more whereas he encourages her to pursue her dreams.

Secondly, the Stars Hollow connection. Dean was too involved in Stars Hollow that he would keep her back, and Logan was so disconnected that he would pull her away. Jess is the perfect balance—someone connected to Stars Hollow through family (mainly Luke) yet isn’t afraid to go other places and pursue other options.

Third, he got along with Rory’s friends. Him and Paris would’ve definitely hit it off if they had more screen time, considering the conversation they had together about authors. Him and Lane weren’t super close, but they had the music connection that definitely could’ve began a friendship. They also have a connection through Luke. Also he and Lorelai have such similar personalities the two could definitely get along if they weren’t both so stubborn.

Anyways Jess fits so well in Rory’s life and Rory in his and that is why they’re the superior couple. Definition of right person wrong time.

A Season 3 "What if Jess found out he was skipping too much before it was too late?" AU, or the "Lane and Jess slacking off in Gym Class" Friendship Fic!

"I wonder how much Rory would pay me for a photo of you in gym shorts…” she teased.

“If Rory ever finds out, Dave is getting a photo of you in gym shorts for free,” Jess calmly threatened.

Lane shuddered in horror.

“Ugh, fine.  Still, that's more effort than I thought you'd put in.”

“Well, our draconian institution has attendance stipulations for buying prom tickets, so…”

“Awww!” Lane squealed and flailed her hands.  She ignored the death glare Jess was aiming at her and kept gushing.  “That's so sweet!  I wasn't always sure about you, but now that I know you'll expose your scrawny legs to the world just to make my best friend happy-”

“You know, I've often wondered how well drumsticks burn…”

lol was once again having the “who on Gilmore Girls would be a Swiftie?” convo with friends and this just kinda spilled out:

The year is 2023.

Much to Lorelai's chagrin and mocking, The Stars Hollow Blonde Mommy Brigade™️ spend the summer embroidering denim jackets and planning expensive caravans to shuttle their matching blonde children to multiple Eras tour stops. Luke happily has Lorelai's back on this one because he keeps finding those fucking little friendship bracelet beads in every nook and cranny of the diner. Jess thinks they should lighten up and let the kids have their fun. Lorelai knew she could never trust him.

Kirk won't stop selling the bracelets under the table at the diner. "Lulu has found her calling, Luke. The woman is a savant with plastic embellishments." Once Liz gets wind of it, she shows up with cases of her own to compete. Luke contemplates burning the whole building down.

There's a town meeting where Taylor proposes they have an Eras themed night in the square where they project the concert film and sell copious amounts of memorabilia. Think of the tourism! Lorelai and Luke show up to protest and are dismayed as one by one, each and every townie admits they love Taylor's music and support the event.

"Lane? Even you?" Lorelai gapes across the aisle.

"Hey, she's got some solid songs, Lorelai. Don't be a hater." Zach says. Brian shyly reveals his 1989 tattoo.

"I like her work with Bon Iver." Lane meekly admits.

"Et tu, brute?" Lorelai goes on to mock Bon Iver's singing voice, calling him the soy latte Brooklyn farmers market Michael McDonald. Her extended impression falls on deaf ears. Luke pats her on the knee for a noble effort.

Michel returns to work on Monday after a mysteriously vague long weekend wearing an Eras t-shirt underneath his suit jacket. Lorelai sticks her head in the sink.

She is a woman possessed. The final straw comes one fateful day in late November as Lorelai is lazily swiping through her instagram stories and sees folklore shamefully make Rory's Spotify Wrapped. Traitor! She complains so much that Rory relegates her venting to a designated Swiftie segment at the end of their nightly phone calls.

Rory doesn't take it all too seriously until she gets doxxed after writing a thinkpiece on her Substack entitled "Taylor Swift and the Capitalist industrial Complex".

Maybe her mom is onto something.

SETTING: wine and painting in durham, nc ; late afternoon AVALABILITY: closed starter for jesse graves | ( @jessexgraves )

Out of all of the unexpectant friendships she could've gotten, Sara's friendship to Jesse was probably both the strangest and yet, one of her favorite. She was always happy when art brought her close to people, especially since she'd been using art to express herself for so many years. So, that afternoon, since both happened to be free earlier in the day, she had gotten them tickets for a wine and painting type of evening the next town over in advance, and, drove by the school to pick him up. "Hi there, Mr. Principal, sir." She teased, rolling her eyes at her own words, before wrapping her arms around Jesse in a sweet hug and planting a small and soft kiss on his cheek. "Are you excited? Because I don't know if I'm more excited about the wine or the paintings." Sara chuckled as she pulled out of the pick up lane and started heading out the road, her usual bubbly kpop tunes playing from her car's radio.

Gets taken in by the Rygalskis for a bit, he loves them very much and they're his family now

Will punch his way out of any mess, he's a sweetheart but you don't want to fuck with him trust me

His girlfriend is bestie with Rory and Lane, so ofc he, Dave and Jess have to team up

Their friendship is so special to me I love them very much

(No but like, these three in California oh you have no idea ahhh)

Oh right, his girlfriend is an oc! Well, you already know that but I still need to introduce her so

(Btw the baby is not his. They met after she was born, but that's his kid ofc 🥺)

[roeyliteratiforever]

do you ever think about how lonely jess must have felt when he first moved to stars hollow? to be trapped in that tiny snow globe of a town for his junior year where everyone’s already formed friendships and cliques and groups and his teachers teaching shit he either already knows and knows better than them or shit he doesn’t know and can never catch up with. to know in his heart that staying with luke isn’t an unconditional thing; that the minute he screws up, he’s gonna get kicked out. to have nothing to do all day every day and to know all the things he could be doing in new york. to have left behind friends a month after 9/11, where people have lost businesses and jobs and family members. to just want to be 18 already so he can get out and live independently and not have to be a burden on anyone. trying to find extra income in a town that completely mistrusts him. and by the way, i have no doubt in my mind that there were kids in that town who pulled shit worse than jess did and blamed it on him because jess is like that town’s boo radley. do you ever think about how alone jess is in stars hollow that he latches to the one person he finds a connection with? how lonely he must be to bet $90 just so he can have lunch with this girl who seems to be the only one in town to not have crucified him yet?

Hi Anon,

Awe this makes me so sad 😢 Yeah I do think about how Jess must have felt living in Stars hollow from time to time, and how Rory was the only one he felt safe, and comfortable around in that town that he definitely did latch onto that. The fact that she would go out of her way defending him to her mom ensuring that he is a good person and not who they think he is. Omg yes he did just want so badly to be 18 and independent so he could depend on himself he was scared to have anyone depend on him mostly because he has never had anyone to depend on. Him growing up in a neglectful childhood at best and his condition for staying with Luke if he did slip up he might get kicked out. I do think about these things, and it rips my stomach apart especially the way Lorelai treated him. Like I love Lorelai but sometimes come on he was just a kid. She would use the he was just a kid excuse for Dean all the time, but with Jess it was no he's unforgivable! It's maddening to me really. I also think about how if Jess went to Chilton with Rory would he have done better in school because it would challenge him more because intellectually he was more on that level. (Now I'm thinking of Distilla Truent and I want to go re-read it!) There probably were kids in the town who pulled stuff like that around school and blamed Jess. I am forever wishing Asp had given Jess real friendships and Jess had joined Rory's friend groups and became friends with Lane, Dave, and Paris! Rambles about this forever!

gilmore girl hot takes & opinions

if you don’t agree byeeeee

spoilers below

+ first and foremost richard was way more hurtful to lorelai then emily was. especially when they found out christopher got sherri pregnant- richard lashed out on lorelai. idk it pissed me off

+ everyone blames rory for dean cheating but it takes two to tango, he could’ve & should’ve said no they were both in the wrong and lindsay didn’t deserve that.

+ i know we ALL agree lane got a shit deal but they really screwed her over. not only did she get pregnant the first time she and zack slept together but she really wasn’t ready to be a parent and i feel like the writers glossed over that and made it a joke. poor girl was miserable

+ rory and christopher, let’s discuss. i know all about having a shitty dad, i mean mine is a world class asshole but christoper, he deserves the worst. i feel like the writers didn’t really divulge on rory’s daddy issues ie., needing validation from men (hello dropping out of yale because mitchum didn’t think she was all that great) and never being happy in any relationship. it’s sad really, i feel her pain.

+ everyone likes to say how amazing lorelai was but dog on rory?? like rory was a product of a teen mom raising her ALONE i can’t even imagine how hard that was. rory was the way she was because lorelai was more a friend then a parent.

+ in addition to the previous one and kinda contradicting, lorelai actually showed up when she needed to. she really loved and provided for rory. going to her parents for money, when she knew it would come with a catch, and supporting rory to get her into an ivy league school??? she had flaws and both she and rory were messes but lorelai did the best she could. + now for this one… yes, i love and adore jess will every fiber of my being, however he had too many issues to be with rory when they were younger. like yes rory had her own issues but she didn’t know how to cater towards him and be the person he needed in that season of his life. however if the truly reconnected it would’ve been magic, there’s a reason rory cheated on every boyfriend with jess they should’ve been endgame.

+ once again jess was JUST A KID!! having to deal with his alcoholic mother shipping him off to crazy town- of course he was pissed he got the raw end of the deal.

+ my bby tristan deserved so much more, i wish they would’ve brought him back a bit later and made him into a fantastic addition to show.

+ if dean and rory stayed just friends i would’ve actually liked him. tbh i really liked his and rory’s friendship.

+ we can all agree that rory and lorelai were a bit self absorbed however the show is literally called gilmore girls. it’s all about them, they are the main characters of course the storylines are going to revolve around them.

[frazzledsoul]

Thinking about it now and an awkward hook-up with Marty would have been the ideal way for Rory to lose her virginity. The show seems to punish the girls for over idealizing sex. Paris doesn't get into Harvard and casually dumps Jamie for a senior citizen. Lane is punished for holding onto her mother's values by a disappointing first time and an unexpected pregnancy. Rory mistakes nostalgia for love and is scapegoated and shamed for believing Dean's lies and the story once again becomes not in how she was manipulated (she was) but in how she's destined to hurt poor, innocent Dean by leaving him behind (even though he's the one that lied and made zero attempts to actually leave his wife).

I feel that crossing that threshold with a friend who likes her more than she likes him would have been a much easier way for Rory to move into the Logan era (being slightly more prepared for a casual relationship) than having an affair with her married ex. Maybe there would have been some hurt feelings if it didn't go anywhere but it would have been way less emotionally traumatizing than what actually happened.

I guess in this ideal scenario, Rory backs away from the friendship with Dean because she needs to set boundaries, Jess still goes and begs her to run away with him but maybe it goes slightly better for them both (as in Rory lets him know lol, no, how about an apology first and he gets it in his head that he needs to fix some other stuff in his life instead of this crazy plan), she still goes to Europe with Emily to clear her head and when she gets back to Yale Marty is there and lol, why not. Alternatively, it could have happened during freshman year and just didn't go anywhere after that, which could lead her to make wiser decisions about both Dean and Jess.

I also think it would make Rory's later interactions with Marty realllllly interesting. Imagine her telling Marty she's interested in Logan after they hooked up and it didn't lead to anything significant, or him pretending he doesn't know her during season 7.
