Exploring Randall and Joy’s dynamics - Joy’s first impulse is to overlook Randall’s grandstand attempts and even tenderness towards her 💓 Perhaps a smidge of his eager and awkward self creeping out since his time at MU.

There’s a chance Joy can’t resist Randall’s goofy and rare attention, but profession is her top priority under the wings of Fear Co ! 🏆

Joy: Try this first page. Sound it out.

Skyler: Uh….o-one fiss-huh…twoah…fiss-huh…

Joy: Are you serious?

Skyler: You picked a hard one on purpose!

Joy: It’s a Dr. Seuss book, you fuckin’ dipshit!

I love you, Joy, but you need to take it down a notch— you’re creating a toxic work environment

[devilsrecreation]

And now it’s time for….

NIKKI OVERANALYZES SIDE CHARACTERS (bc nobody else will)

Alright, I’m gonna say it: is anybody else concerned about Joy? Because there are hints that she may not be okay

Given her parallel to Randall and Sully, she got jealous of Tylor just for climbing up the ranks on the scare-board, even though she seemed really genuine when meeting him. Not to mention Declan literally outing her instead of…you know, not saying anything other than congratulating Tylor. That’s bound to bring anyone’s self-esteem down. She also complains to herself that she’s somebody after Fritz told her she was a nobody.

She even works through lunch, saying “I’ll eat when I’m dead!�� like girlie that is NOT healthy for you, physically and mentally. You’re telling me you starve yourself all throughout work JUST to keep yourself at the top of the leaderboard? She shouldn’t overwork herself like that. Take advantage of that lunch break, at least a granola or a candy bar! Eat SOMETHING. She puts a lot of pressure on herself and it’s not good for her or anybody.

If she’s Randall’s parallel, then there has to be a reason she’s like this. Randall was desperate to fit in and be someone, not feel like he’s second-rate. Joy definitely has an inferiority complex, like she HAS to be on top. She HAS to be the best, otherwise she thinks she’s not good enough. So she’ll do anything to stay there, even if it puts herself at risk.

But why? What’s making her think this way? I have a feeling that like Randall, she was surrounded by toxicity where not doing something right/losing means everyone’s gonna shame you like Johnny did with Randall after losing to Sully in the scare games (which btw was NOT his fault). He promised himself he would never lose to Sully again after Johnny’s “HEARTS?!?” and Chet’s “Way to go, Boggs”. Perhaps it’s similar with Joy. There had to be something that happened in her life that made her think “if you’re not the best, then you’re nothing”. And that mentality has definitely gotten to her head due to her coworkers not liking her and essentially viewing her as a villain

I like to think she gets a change of heart in a potential Season 3 cuz she DID smile at Tylor and Val making Ben laugh but still has a lot of self-reflecting to do :)

TLDR: Joy probably has some sort of hidden trauma, we just don’t know what it is

beware of the swamp || my piece for @ygomerzine

[rubberduckyrye]

You guys ever think about the tragedy that is Junko Enoshima? That she wasn't a sadistic girl seeking out to hurt others for sadistic glee?

Because everything Junko did was her trying to emotionally abuse herself? That she wanting to feel something so badly that she hurt the people she loved most, and even brought about ruin to the world, simply to destroy herself with it?

uuuu im obsessed with vale/jorge dynamic recently. Jorge used to obv hate vale during their years together but now its his biggesr fan and vale is very clearly fond of him nowadays (inviting him to la 100km dei campioni etc.)

They went from being each other biggest haters to a kinda friendship? Or at least respect and giggles lol

Also jorge/vale rivalry was one of my fav back then in 2008/9

so this has been one of the numerous jorge/valentino asks sitting unloved in my inbox because I burnt myself out on that rivalry after writing the 2008-10 long post, BUT I realised I had a take on this exact aspect... here goes. jorge in many ways is the valentino rival who has processed the whole experience™ the best. like he made it, he survived and kinda even thrived. and I have some thoughts on this

main take: jorge/vale rivalry at its height was definitely pretty nasty, but when it comes down to it jorge is the guy valentino feuded with who is most likely to fondly reminisce about the whole experience. this is obviously because he's insane and matched valentino's freak in the yamaha garage from day one... it's just pretty funny how intensely up for it he was going into the rivalry and how totally willing he was to move on afterwards. his happy memories of all the times valentino tried to murder him. picture frames for all the assassination attempts. for all the undeniable headloss jorge went through while fighting valentino, he actually emerged from the whole thing with pretty minimal psychological scarring. inspiring

secondary take: jorge and casey both still semi-regularly talk shit about valentino but it's a COMPLETELY different vibe. like jorge's kinda just talking himself up, wanting to make himself look good in that rivalry - BUT he's also going 'yeah we were the best... wish the guys today were still like us'. the most pro-alien alien!! whereas casey brings way more of a 'That Day Taught Me About Man's Capacity For Evil' vibe to the table. and a big reason for this. imo. is how jorge already went into that rivalry with so much psychological baggage BUT his issues are pretty disconnected from valentino for the most part. jorge desperately needed a positive father figure, not a less aggressive rival. so valentino did torment jorge plenty but also it's not actually adding any long-term psychological scars... jorge had to eventually make his peace with the fact that he wasn't going to be the next valentino rossi but he DID and in a way that was a good thing... jorge spent so much time trying to construct this persona for himself that would both be the ideal racer and get everyone to love him, and he needed to let go of that! he grew up a bit and he became his own person and he stopped trying to invent a perfect character for himself and he became somewhat less insecure in the process. and there's way less resentment towards valentino there, because valentino isn't contributing all that much to what remaining angst and even grief jorge is still going through related to the sport. if anything, with the benefit of hindsight, jorge kinda got a lot of the things he wanted out of the valentino rivalry! including, let's face it, the drama of it all... by contrast, valentino's entire deal just happened to map on at about 98% level of accuracy to casey's preexisting psychological baggage, it's actually pretty impressive. basically almost every single thing that caused casey angst throughout his career, including the stuff that goes back to his childhood racing experiences in australia, can somehow be related to the valentino rivalry - and casey is very happy to make those connections himself. so for casey his rivalry with valentino actively made everything so so much worse and is still massively interwoven with ALL of his angst related to the sport. because valentino is basically the most horrible casey foil anyone could possibly have invented. that's his shadow... kinda fucked up how they invented a guy to torture casey specifically

in conclusion: it's very funny how quickly jorge and valentino got over it after both of their yamaha stints, ESPECIALLY the second one. jorge can make motegi 2010 instagram jokes now. "this is only for p3 and we're team mates but fuck it: this is all about honour!" right........ yeah you really were the perfect valentino teammate, truly a match made in hell heaven. came in prepared for drama, got the drama, now fondly remembers the drama. knew what he was getting himself into and lived the feud experience to the max. made it out alive with minimal long-term psychological damage. an icon a hero a role model for us all

Late night Liam makeup test, just to figure out what colors and shades i wanna use for my face paint.

Doesn't look quite right because, the wig only covers the top of my head, i planned this wig with the idea that i would have a fresh or semi fresh haircut every time i planned to take him to a con, since i shave all around my head anyway.

Also i'll be wearing my yellow contacts and a different set of glasses for the whole thing
