Do you think Cole used to help Nya with feeling comfortable in her own skin again and feeling flesh and bones, as well as acting alive again, whilst also helping her keep her form and be more conscious and sure of it after merging with the sea, simply because he gets it?

Ghost Cole you will not be forgotten.

sorry but do you ever think about the fact that the bernard we have today is a direct amalgamation of everything that happened in his past and i know that sound like such an obvious statement to say but it actually kills me to know that you can draw a direct line from who he is today all the way back to that sixteen year old boy who watched his best friend bleed out. like it is the defining moment in his life. it fundamentally shaped who he is and the person he's become. he is the bernard we know and love not despite the grieves shooting but because of it. because the gangs all got together and shot up his school. because tim walked out of that room with nothing but a baseball bat. because his darla got shot. because he watched her gasp and cry as she died. because he watched the blood coagulate around the wound. because he sat there and held her hand as her life drained out of her. because he walked into school that day with a joke he knew would make her laugh and her nose would scrunch up and she'd snort a little and tim would roll his eyes at him and call him ridiculous and instead he walked out with a bloody white shirt, blood under his fingernails, and two friends less. because, even now, almost half a decade out from the shooting, he thinks that if he closes his eyes, he will always be that stupid, scared little sixteen year old, holding the cooling body of dead best friend.

[penofwildfire]

You've heard of "Jay doesn't regain his memories but falls back in love with Nya anyway because their bond is just too damn strong", now get ready for "Jay does regain his memories but ends up asking if he and Nya can take their time before getting back together because they've been separated a long time and they've changed as people and he's still kinda recovering from the last several years so he's just not really ready for a serious relationship right now."

"claiming any writer ever intended to write that jason was sexually assaulted as a child is stealing from mia" is still one of the most ridiculous takes i have ever seen. by the way

i think that the way the great gatsby musical is portrayed is somewhat through the lens of how gatsby saw the story.

Jay Ferin's character being an exploration of the complications and nuances of love and loyalty between opposing groups is so fucking important to me

Jay's overarching character arc is about unwavering loyalty and refusing to compromise her beliefs while also adding to and readjusting her understanding of them as she grows and gains new experiences!! She will not stand down on her insistence that the navy is not evil, that at their core they mean to do good, but she adds to that belief with the knowledge that their intentions can be twisted and corrupted, and that that doesn't make them evil but it does mean they're not necessarily 100% correct or trustworthy as she had previously believed.

At this point in the story, she has sided with the pirates because she knows the navy's corruption runs too deep to change without people she cares about getting hurt, but even with this strengthened loyalty, she also still refuses to agree with the other pirates that the navy is irredeemable and she pushes them to find understanding and compromise wherever they can. She makes it clear over and over that her loyalty to her family and the people she was raised with does not have to be given up for her new loyalty to the pirates and she stands strong in this value when making decisions about what to do with the Navy/Pirate war.

Her determination to find a middle ground and make her friends on both sides of the conflict understand that they don't have to be enemies means so much to me because everyone else around her is insisting she has to choose and Every Single Time, Jay Ferin says "no, i wont choose, i love you both and goddammit I'm going to make you see it."
