This scene from 5x01 is fascinating; there's so much unsaid but still fully communicated - both between them and to the audience.

Lorelei Martins presents a conundrum for the audience. She is presented as a femme fatale. She is literally presented to Jane by Red John, and as a present, she's something of a Trojan Horse. She's looks like Lisbon, but she is like Jane.

At this point in the show, Jane values two things, nearly equally: his quest for revenge against Red John and his relationship with Lisbon. The quest has been his #1 priority for a decade or more, but in working with Lisbon and the team, Jane has become marginally tamed. He sees what it's like to be cared for, and he's found that strong person - a better person - who will be there for him through thick and thin, someone who he can truly trust in every way.

Lorelei is a threat to both of those things, and I think he senses it, but does not want to admit it. He does not.

He knew she was Red John's weapon. He wanted to be approached. He thought he could easily dismiss that she resembles the woman he loves. While he and Lisbon are not a couple and have never been physical, Jane does love Lisbon, and he needs her in his life. He accepts her on her terms, whatever those terms may be.

Lorelei is a direct threat to Lisbon - she demands her head to give to Red John. But she's also a threat to the trust that he's developed with Lisbon because he knows that Lisbon will not like that he's become intimate - in any way - with Lorelei. He's also unwilling to talk about that intimacy because he's in denial. And not about Lorelei and her importance or his attraction, whatever those may be. He's in denial that he's the one in control in this situation.

He WANTS to be in control. He needs to be the one doing the playing, not the one being played.

See how defensive he gets when Lisbon tells him Lorelei is playing him? He mocks her suggestion that he tell her what Lorelei's game is. Like that's so far fetched. It's his literal job to tell her what the criminal's game is, and he does it all of the time.

But if Lorelei is playing him, Jane is not the one in control. And worse, it might not just be Lorelei who's is pulling his strings.

Lorelei is like Jane. She's been traumatized by Red John, and she lost her most important person. She's also a sly, cunning criminal. Being cruelly victimized by a psychopathic killer can lead to multiple outcomes. Jane became a better person, partly because of Lisbon and the CBI team. Lorelei became further enthralled to Red John.

Jane is an exceedingly lonely man. He wants to get close to people, but he is excruciatingly aware that anyone he gets close to become a potential target. In gifting him Lorelei, Red John is giving him a peace offering: Here's someone you can love. I'll let you have this person, someone who will understand exactly what you're going through. You don't have be alone. We don't have to be enemies. And you don't have to be a better person, you can be yourself. We like you for who you are.

In this short scene, we see Jane wrestle with that comprehension and his loyalties, to Lisbon and his mission.

Ultimately, he rejects Red John's peace offering and tries to turn Lorelei, at which point she betrays his trust, goes after Red John herself, and puts her lust for revenge over and above Jane's offer of friendship and a successful outcome. He loses his hard earned lead, six months of his life, and a person he wanted to try to save (a version of himself). He loses everything but Lisbon's friendship.

What Red John didn't understand is that Jane doesn't want or need someone like himself. He needs a person of compassion, concern, objectivity, self-sacrifice, and iron-clad loyalty.

Lorelei Martins - There but for the grace of Lisbon, goes Jane. And that's not who he wants (or needs) to be. He knows how that story ends: in an alley, alone, covered in blood. And without Lisbon and her stubborn loyalty and patience, he probably would have come to the same end.

Rät by Penelope Scott feels like it would be a good worm song but I can't decide who it fits best. The one i've thought most about is from Dragon to Richter, but there are other ones that could fit.

(Taylor to heroes/the triumvirate?)

Ohhh yes. Yes. I can't believe I've never listened to this the whole way through before (only heard clips of it in hollyleaf animations), it goes hard. I think both of your assignments work - this bit specifically reminds me of Dragon

and I'm very glad that someone else is rotating the Dragon-Richter relationship in their head (and giving me a soundtrack for my own brain rotation).

Parts of it also remind me of Kenzie, if you've read Ward.

Nothing like it happens in canon, but I can definitely picture her idolising a deeply flawed person or system, and slowly coming to realise their flaws (I guess we could've got something similar with Vic's police brutality, or even with Chris?) while grappling with intense guilt about how she is intertwined with them. The music fits her (cape) aesthetic really well. And "I'm so embarrassed"... god. That's exactly how she'd say it. (Both as in, that's nearly a voiceclaim for when she calls negative emotions embarassment in canon, and as in I think she'd describe her guilt, resentment, hatred, betrayal etc. in this hypothetical as embarassment too.)

Also, she should get to call everyone who's ever hurt her a dick and insult all of their technology.

This song also lowkey reminds me of both Reboot and Ready Player One (I was reminded of rp1 earlier hence it being fresh in my brain) but I don't have specific characters in mind.

my personality type is: infj-a (advocate)

This is a personality type with the Introverted, Intuitive, Feeling, and Judging traits. We tend to approach life with deep thoughtfulness and imagination. Our inner vision, personal values, and a quiet, principled version of humanism guide us in all things.

I was trying to plan Hana and Martin’s wedding to tomorrow, but accidentally set it to today… So here we go! Of course, half the guests didn’t show, the ones who did wouldn’t stay in formal wear because it was cold, the people who had roles wouldn’t do them, all in all, nothing went according to plan.

Saturday being a day for family, friday is the day the entire house is dusted from floor to roof by everyone. That way, the rest of the week requires only maintenance and everyone can focus at gathering/ work /studies...

If mrs Brisby is out on the day, which usually is the case as a bread winner, Auntie Shrew takes the lead if it's time for a bigger clean up (Seasonal, holidays...). Organized routines bring security to her, and everyone knows what to do. Even when she is absent. Also tidy home, clear mind.

The kids are familiar with the routine, so they will start from their beds and belongings, preparing indgredients for dinner / baking. Their current house (or apartment depending AU) is small, whole family sharing a bed chamber. then living space with kitchen corner, so the task isn't too great.
