Joey and Pacey in Mind Games [4×16]

[farfarawaygirl]

I keep seeing articles, or opinions, relating Jeremiah Fisher to the Pacey Witter, and I can’t help but think that they are wrong. After episode five I was left with the overwhelmingly feeling that Jeremiah feels entitled to Belly in some way, which clearly makes him Dawson Leery. Conrad is the Pacey here; deeply believing he is unworthy of the girl he loves, in awe of her smile, ready to let her hurt him.

The simple act of loving Belly is enough for Conrad, in the same way it was for Pacey and Joey. Which, for the informed, means that seeing the woman he loves happy is worth more to him than anything.

Ketu Kinship p1.

disclaimer: as per usual, all my posts are based entirely on fictional dynamics and themes that perfectly tie into the nakshatras of the characters/actors. when talking about onscreen pairings, i am not promoting anything. don't ask me about compatibility, i'm simply a dedicated consumer of fictional media who just so happens to be obsessed with the meanings and storytelling behind nakshatras. if this resonates, though, i am glad. but when it comes to real life, i'm not intrigued by astrological pairings. this is for fun!

The Chinese drama Love Between Fairy and Devil is so Mula-coded. The way Mula is derived from the Sanskrit word for "root" and the Fairy, played by a Mula Sun native, gets to the tree of emotions of the Devil (who is the epitome of a Ketu power-hungry emotionless tyrant, mind you). She finds this tree, which is representative of his psyche, to be completely damaged and frozen, and she unintentionally heals his roots (which gets to his core issues, and hidden parts of himself). Ketu bringing forth truth and healing, this debilitates him, and she becomes his weakness.

Although, there's a toxic aspect that I just explored of the Ketu-Ketu pairings, especially in het pairings, where the Ketu man fixates on the Ketu woman and he traps her, selfishly taking away her autonomy. Of course, it's romanticized, but this is yet again another Ketu man doing too much because he can't healthily express his feelings (as they begin to surface, all thanks to her Mula abilities) and he overexerts himself, his genuine feelings for her being in conflict with his tyrannical instincts (another power trip for the Ketuvian).

The one astrological influence I found to go perfectly head-to-head with Ketuvians' force is Rahu, and vice versa. I will be getting to that post someday; but Rahuvians can be the least tolerant and more resistant of them. The same way Sun-Saturn pairings function. Being of equal polarity, there can be enough tension and conflict to showcase their refusal to submit to each other's force as opposed to natives of the same rulership.

And also, the Beauty-&-the-Beast element I talked about is there between Fairy and Devil, of course, as I've explored with this specific nodal pairing before. Even in the other details of the drama, such as her friends being plants the same way Belle's friends are kitchen utensils and teacups. Her isolation speaks to her Ketu-rulership, and her getting locked up by the Ketu male she's supposedly meant to fall in love with is literally Beauty-&-the-Beast. Except the Beast here is a murderous god, the actual biggest threat in the universe and whatnot. While Punarvasu's Beast was merely a vain, narcissistic prince, compared to Mula as the Beast who is initially extremely villainous and darker (as explored before in my wolf in disguise post, how nodals are the evil beasts everyone has the right to be wary of). Of course, as you can see how the media has always been obsessed with humanizing & redeeming murderous male characters, the Beauty-&-the-Beast tale is of two Ketuvians here.

Although, not to shit on Ketu-Ketu entirely.

It is interesting that (fictional) Ketu-ruled natives, though seen in a symbiotic dynamic with Jupiter-ruled natives, are magnetized by those of the same rulership, and vice versa; to the point of certain medias showcasing a better understanding of the Ketuvian through other Ketuvians. It is also interesting how fans of these shows even prefer these pairings, sensing way more chemistry and connection than expected, such as;

In the love triangle between Joey Potter, Pacey Witter, and Dawson Leery; Pacey Witter and Joey Potter are the perfect endgame to pretty much majority of the fandom. Initially Joey loves Dawson for his Jupiterian tendencies, but even the viewers grow to realize that Pacey actually sees her for who she is. While Dawson, being so full of himself, remains with a version of Joey in his head that just isn't real (Jupiter's idealization getting in the way of reality). The way Pacey sees Joey goes to Ketu's energy cutting through superficial layers to get to the essence of things. Pacey gets to look into Joey's dreams, aspirations and true self more than Dawson will ever.

With Rory Gilmore, Dean, and Jess; it’s almost the exact same thing. Rory and Dean are initially drawn to each other’s polarity and seem like a fine fit. Then, Jess comes along, and his presence gives us a more real version of Rory. They have that effect on each other where, while they’re so magnetized by one another, they feel so grounded and seen when they’re together. He validates important aspects of herself that we never see Dean do.

Alex Russo and Mason Greybeck. Her first relationship was with Dean (another Punarvasu by the name Dean lol), and some can argue it’s her best. But her relationship with Mason demonstrates a deeper understanding and appreciation of her character compared to her relationship with Dean. Her second relationship was pretty much the most iconic on the show. With Mason, Alex was just seen, he gave her space to thrive even in her recklessness. [Also Mason's unhealthy fixation on Alex showed in episodes post their breakup. Typical.]

With Clara Oswald and the Eleventh Doctor and the Twelfth, this is another clear example that Ketu-Ketu is the best fit in my opinion. Clara had only become an equal beside Twelfth, developing a deeper, more real, connection with him because she is seen and through him her character thrives more. Clara with Eleventh were a stereotypical Ketu-Jupiter pair, mostly centered around him and his Jupiterian abundance with no room for her to grow or be grounded in a meaningful way as Jupiter doesn't challenge Ketu or pierce through Ketu.

Her character beside the Eleventh Doctor was based on his fascination with her, not supporting her growth or complexity as Jupiter has the tendency to idealize. With the Twelfth Doctor, he challenges her in ways that force her to confront her fears, truths and insecurities. This is the Ketuvian piercing through the other Ketuvian, adding even more emotional depth to their connection.

As Ketuvians can be extremely grounding from their ability to see beyond things and destroy illusion, it comes as no surprise that such natives can be validated by one another just based on perception and the ability to brutally tell things as they are alone. For example, in the film, Thoroughbreds, Mula Sun Olivia Cooke plays a character who is marked by her blunt honesty and emotional detachment, contrasting the performative and often illusory behaviour of the characters around her. Being that she is Ketuvian, she is the grounding force that drives the movie, forcing Ashwini Sun Anya Taylor Joy's character to confront the darker, more complex aspects of herself and her insecurities. The Mula native's candidness acts as a mirror for the Ashwini native who hasn't had anyone pierce through her as she did. The unwavering authenticity of the Mula native encourages her to reconsider her own identity.

This way of Ketuvians seeing each other always comes with an unspoken acceptance and understanding of each other. They seem to initially function like Solar people who hate having expectations put on them as it restricts them. Ketu people hate falsities projected onto them, and when they’re with people who limit them as they try to navigate their own identity, or with people who don’t see them and have the Ketuvian center them instead, they become suffocated. It comes as no surprise that when another Ketu person walks into their life, they feel so validated and grounded, as the truth that's always existed within them is forcibly pulled out and mirrored. In general, without my dramatic ass interpretation, Ketu people are just naturally more inclined to the company of each other because there’s a theme of belonging, as headless and directionless as Ketu is.

 OTP Meme [1 Couple]: Pacey Witter & Joey Potter

You’re off the hook. I’ve never really put much faith in all that ‘if you love someone, set them free’ crap, as evidenced by everything I’ve done in my life up to this very moment, but I am determined to be happy, Joey. Happy in this life. And I love you. I mean, I always . . . I have always, always loved you. But our timing has just never been right. And the way I figure it, time is no man’s friend. So I have to get right with that and be happy, now. Because this is it. I mean, this is all that we get. If there’s one thing I’ve learned from losing Jen, that’s what I’ve learned. Wait, I’m not finished. It’s really important for me that you be happy. So I want you to be with someone, whether it be Dawson or New York guy or some man that you haven’t even met yet. But I want you to be with someone who can be a part of the life that you want for yourself. I want you to be with someone who makes you feel like I feel when I’m with you. So, I guess the point to this long run-on sentence that’s been the last ten years of our lives is just that the simple act of being in love with you is enough for me. So you’re off the hook. You know, for the record, I don’t want to be let off the hook. Because everything in my life that I’ve done has led me here… right now, and the last thing I want, need, or deserve is to be let off somebody’s hook. Please don’t miss my point here ‘cause - And don’t miss mine. Pacey… I love you. You know that. And it’s very real. It’s so real that it’s kept me moving, mostly running from it, never ready for it […] I can’t be let off the hook because I might just get the notion that it’s ok to keep running.

PACEY WITTER COMFORTTT winter style like something chilly and cozy if u feel my vibe

I just know Soph has been waiting for me to write about Pacey🫶

To Leave the Warmest Bed I’ve Ever Known

warnings: fluff and small angst with comfort

The. best. Holiday. Ever. is all you could think about as you and Pacey visited a small cabin in a small town in Washington. Even though it rained 6 out of the 8 days you were staying and it was snowing, you still felt the warmest you ever had in your life.

You felt a hint of sadness overcome you as you think about the fact that this is the last night you would be here. Just you and Pacey, no friends or parents to impress. You stare at the fire place that Pacey lit earlier to warn you up.

Pacey had gone into town to rent a dvd and get some snacks as you were going to spend your last night here snuggled up together on the warm couch.

You turned your head to the door as you heard it open. The smile on your face could be described as being as big as the universe when Pacey walked through the door. “Jesus it’s freezing” Pacey said smiling up at you, the movies and snacks in a plastic sack in his hands. You almost slipped on the floor running to him in your socks. “Don’t go tripping on me now” Pacey softly laughed

You snuggled your head into his chest and breathed in his scent. You didn’t want to let him go. You didn’t want to go back to Capeside and deal with difficult parents and friends who are always arguing, you just wanted to stay here with Pacey.

You didn’t realize that you had been standing there and hugging him for almost 5 minutes until he softly pulled you away. “What’s wrong?” He asked softly, tucking loose strands of hair behind your ears. “Nothings wrong” You reply smiling, but you should’ve known that Pacey would’ve seen through it, he knows you better than anyone. “Something is wrong” Pacey said as he led you to the couch and sat you down on his lap softly. “I’m just cold” you whispered as you hugged him again and snuggled your face into his neck.

“well we can’t have that now can we?” Pacey whispered back to you as he laid you both down on the couch. You felt him reach down and then a soft blanket covering you both. Pacey softly rubbed your back and scratched your head. “What movie did you rent?” You asked him as you looked up at him. “The best Christmas movie known to man kind” He said smiling. “The Christmas Story” you both replied at the same time. You both softly laughed. “Jinx you owe me a coke” You joked. “I’ll buy you all the cokes in the world” Pacey said before kissing your forehead. You smiled as you snuggled back into him, enjoying the warmth and comfort he offered

“If I ask you what’s wrong again are you gonna tell me the truth?” Pacey asked softly. You looked up at him before cupping his cheek, “I don’t want to leave” you said softly. Pacey looked at you knowing there was more you wanted to say. “There is so much drama back at Capeside with our parents and friends, but here it’s just me and you and it’s the most comfortable I’ve felt in a while. I don’t have to impress anyone or mediate an argument. I just get to be with you and feel safe and comfortable.” By the end of your talk you felt a small tear run down your cheek, if you where around anyone else you would have felt pathetic for crying over something like this, but with Pacey you knew he wouldn’t judge you for crying and he would even understand.

He softly wiped your tears away from your cheeks before sitting up to softly kiss your forehead. “There will still be us” he whispered before pulling you closer to him. “I won’t let them drag you into their shit anymore I promise.” He whispered sincerely before softly kissing you. “It’s you and me. it’s always has been and always going to be” he said before kissing you again. “I love you pacey” you said softly. “I love you too” he replied. “Now let’s watch The Christmas Story and eat all the snacks our body will let us handle” Pacey said getting up to pop in the dvd and spill all the snacks out on the coffee table.

You felt better knowing that even though you where going to have to face the world again, you where going to have him by your side.

this is the first fic i’ve written since July and the first fic i’ve written about Pacey Witter, so please forgive me if it isn’t the best😔💔

i would say to let me know if you want anything changed but i’m sure Soph will just text me LMAO

anyways everyone say “THANK YOU SOPH”

hey, isn’t that JOSEPHINE “JOEY” DAVIS-SCOTT, who looks a little like ALYCIA DEBNAM-CAREY? i hear SHE is a THIRTY-TWO year old CIS WOMAN who works as CO-OWNER OF THE CRYSTAL RIDGE WINERY who has been in town for HER ENTIRE LIFE. they ARE a member of one of aspen creek’s founding families. you can usually find them at WILLOW STREET or CRYSTAL RIDGE WINERY. if you ask me, they remind me a lot of LEATHER JACKETS, SOFT SMILES BENEATH HEAVY EYELINER, AND A HEART THAT’S TOUGH BUT EASILY BRUISED. just keep an eye on them & see if their true colors shine through!

basics

full name: josephine davis-scott nickname: jo, joey age: 32 years old date of birth: august 21st, 1992 zodiac sign: leo sun, cancer moon, aries rising gender & pronouns: cis woman & she/her sexuality: bisexual occupation: co-owner of crystal ridge winery; manages social media for the winery and the davis-scott bed & breakfast; photographer; painter

family

mother: evelyn davis-scott father: james davis-scott sibligns: tba davis-scott, tba davis-scott, harlow davis-scott, penelope davis-scott nephews: alice reeves, teddy li, tba, tba, tba

personality

mbti: ESFP-A (the entertainer) moral alignment: chaotic neutral temperament: sanguine parallels: jess o'brien (chesapeake shores), pacey witter and jen lindley (dawson's creek), brooke davis (one tree hill)

about

she’s the youngest child in the davis-scott family and often felt a bit out of place among everyone -- her older siblings, nieces, and nephews, many of whom were born just a few years after joey herself. her house was always bustling, whether with family or the guests at the davis-scott bed & breakfast, where she spent most of her childhood and teenage years.

despite her outwardly extroverted nature, joey often felt lonely. that’s part of why amara has been so important to her ever since they met in kindergarten. the two girls have been inseparable ever since, navigating middle school, high school, and college in raleigh together, then amara’s pregnancy, and ultimately opening the crystal ridge winery side by side.

wanted connections / plots

exes: someone from high school or college. ideally, i’d love a dynamic similar to pacey and joey from dawson’s creek -- where jo takes on the pacey role lol. they’ve disliked each other since childhood, but things started to shift when they entered high school, and something romantic developed. however, it all abruptly ended before college. now, they've crossed paths again and are trying to convince themselves they can still be friends, but it's not easy being friends with someone you once loved.

work-related plots: people joey has worked with before, or is about to collaborate with. she’s a photographer and a painter with an impressive portfolio. she photographs events, weddings, parties—basically anything. in addition, she teaches a few free art and photography classes, particularly for kids.

some kind of enemies: joey is known for her abrasive personality. she’s outspoken and isn’t afraid to defend her ideas, no matter who she’s talking to. maybe your muse doesn’t like how blunt she is, or they have opposing views. it would be fun to have an enemy in such a small town. this conflict could be something recent or something that dates back to their school days.

[farfarawaygirl]

I have been thinking of this scene for the last week.

Pacey : You're off the hook. I've never had much faith in that whole "if you love someone, set them free" crap, as evidenced by everything I've done in my life up until this very moment, but I am determined to be happy, Joey, happy in this life.

[quotent-potables]

But I want you to be with someone who can be a part of the life that you want for yourself. I want you to be with someone who makes you feel the way I feel when I'm with you. So, I guess the point of this long run-on sentence that's been the last 10 years of our lives is that the simple act of being in love with you is enough for me.
