When Jack put the red blanket on Joke, I noticed Joke has a little J with a heart tattooed on his shoulder, which I got a glimpse of in the second episode.

He doesn't have a chip on his shoulder. He has a heart on his shoulder. He wears his feelings on his shoulder. In his color.

And it's a J.

There is no Joker of Hearts. There is only a Jack of Hearts!

The Jack of Hearts sits on Joke's left shoulder which is normally concealed.

And the Jack of Hearts represents young men in love.

Every tattoo Joke has is about Jack.

Joke fell in love in one night five years ago and has been thinking about it ever since.

And that's why the ring with Jack's name on it belongs on Joke's finger. He already has Jack tattooed all over his body. Now he just needs Jack to allow Joke to permanently place Jack's name in his heart.

It’s been a while. Med school has me swamped to high heaven. My lack of RinaJack art will not stop my love for them though. Commissioned the wonderful @yanabeardoodles to draw my bg Rina with Jack. She did her so much justice I’m. Screaming. Forever in love with this piece.

EVIL MARK, EVIL MARK, EVIL MARK!!! I want to be coherent about this season but please picture me foaming at the mouth and running on the walls. S2 being what if Mark's just like his Dad? Insanity. I love this show. Anyways, AU where an Evil!Mark tries to make Our!Mark worse, and Our!Mark tries to make the other better. Something something confronting your idea of the worst version of oneself. Plus, tweaked black and yellow costume because I saw it and immediately went murder hornet lookin' ass and knew I had to draw it. Evil ass Mark. Horrible. I think he should be dragged kicking and screaming into redemption.

help even the way they scowl is different

the coquettish ‘I didn’t get my way’ scowl

and the deranged ‘I will get my way’ scowl

War Wanarat really said get yourself a man that can do both.

[chirpsythismorning]

INTERESTING a storyline that ppl say would be impossible for Mike bc of x y z and yet here is Jack Mcphee in Dawson's Creek living his forced conforming lifestyle, dating a girl and denying his sexuality, having a mental breakdown in his nuclear family front hallway and everything...

A Bird & the Sun

Before I get to the colors in episode nine of Jack & Joker, I want to mention the painting in Boss's office because @dribs-and-drabbles wrote about this exact painting (but the post is MIA, daddy!).

Is it a crane? An albatross? I have no idea, but the point is it's a bird flying toward the red sun which symbolizes freedom and good fortune.

And although Boss is obsessed with horses because he wants to be a Horsemen.

Like have a huge knight chess piece on his shelf,

And having horse statues behind his desk,

It's interesting that a bird is always in his way.

There is an eagle on his desk.

And out of the lion, unicorn, and dragon, the ring was hiding in the room with the eagle.

So although I could see the bird as being Boss's freedom,

It's Jack who gets to be free once the ring is acquired.

Because Boss wants to be a horse, but Jack is a bird, and Joke is a red sun.

And it's also why the ring is illuminated with a red light.

To rewind for a second, Jack is color coded blue and black.

And Joke is color coded red.

Even Grandma understands this and her outfit used both their colors.

And Jack and Joke's (practically) adopted daughter also wore those colors.

So everyone remembers their colors, yes? Yes!

While Joke is clearly red like his bow tie was this episode, I have a theory that Jack is black because of his job and his life, but he would be blue (lighter) if it weren't for his job and extra burdens.

So, once again, it's interesting that the ring is meant for Boss (horses), but surrounded by red (Joke)

In an entirely blue space (Jack).

But Joke can't get the ring on his own. He needs the help of his buddies, which comes not only in the form of the tarot cards Nang gave each of them, but them actually helping him break into the room.

So when Joke must hide, he hides in a red space because as much as this plan is not going well, stealing items is what Joke does best.

He is exactly where he is meant to be.

Which is protecting Jack's freedom and coming between Jack and Rose.

Because Jack is already lighter admitting that he likes someone else since he now has someone who has his back, and not just figuratively. Joke is hiding in the closet right behind Jack.

Joke is the red sun that gives Jack freedom, but not only by stealing the ring. Joke gives Jack the freedom to be honest and to dream of a life beyond the one he has.

Jack gets to look up at the sky and believe in that moment that the world is full of possibilities.

And Joke has given him that world.

Jack was a caged bird until Joke brought Jack good fortune and freedom.

Joke is his sun.
