[lesbianlotties]

final thoughts for the night: the bad news is that they thought eps 4-6 were a little slow disappointing in comparison to the first ones. the good news is that they're as fucking annoyed by the whole travis/nat situation as I am <33

[steveharrirngton]

Yellowjackets || s. 2 ep. 7

[jackiesnecklace]

i love the foreshadowing in yellowjackets, i love how mundane things or simple dialogues can have a heavy weight. i rewatched a few weeks ago and found this:

so on ep 7 s1 we follow taissa’s group and their adventure to find help and get out of the woods and we have this conversation

then, in episode 10 jackie refuses to thank the wilderness for the dead bear. it didn’t mean that she was going against shauna or any of the girls, she was skeptical at first and the seance session was a joke to jackie

this always gets me into thinking, what if the wilderness does choose and the only way to find forgiveness and get a chance to survive is by believing in it. because we know what happens if we go against it

and when they see the consequences, the skeptical ones turn into praying, thanking and asking for the help.

whether you feel like it saves you from the infinite torment

ep 5 s2

or because it shows you just how powerful and loyal it can be

ep 9 s2

i don’t know if anyone has mention this before but i wanted to write about it and give my take on it. if you have any theories about it im all ears eyes

[captaindanvers89]

If Misty ever sets up a True Crime Podcast, the titles of each episode would be:

Ep 1: Why did the plane crash in 1996 (Was it sabotage or bad luck?)? Or another theory, was the CIA involved?

Ep 2: The mystery of how the Yellowjackets survived in the Wilderness for 19 months (There was def no cannibalism involved and we def did not try to hunt each other for food)

Ep 3: Who the fuck is Lottie Matthews? Is she a cult leader? Was she part of a lesbian situation-ship with our huntress aka Antler Queen? And live from a mental institution in Switzerland, we have guest star Lottie Matthews herself.

Ep 4: The tragic life and death of Jackie Taylor feat her homoerotic friendship with guest star Shauna Shipman (We had to cut the episode down because the original length was 15 hours)

Ep 6: Again with the cannibalism theories? Guys, we talked about this. NOTHING of the sort happened. Feat guest star Taissa Turner

Ep 7: Was it wolves howling that night or was it a bunch of teenage girls high on shrooms? Feat guest star Vanessa Palmer who will also provide in depth knowledge on how to survive a wolf attack

Ep 8: This is not a true crime episode but you guys asked for this so we have Shauna Shipman sharing her butchery skills (No humans, dead or alive, were involved in making this episode)

Ep 9: The mystery of the Antler Queen Cult (You guys asked for this so our final guest star is none other than Natalie Scatorccio and no, I def DID NOT kidnap her for this. She is def not locked up in my basement right now).

I'm rewatching clips from ep 7 of Yellowjackets season 1 for one of the requests that I was given, specifically scenes where Natalie, Shauna, and Taissa are trying to catch the blackmailer and I had an interesting thought

When Natalie and Tai are chasing the blackmailer (Jeff), Tai tells Natalie to "take the wing" and she'll "mark him like at States". They're using soccer terminology to corner him and catch him.

That's how they eventually start hunting one another. When they went after Nat in season 2, they stuck together in a cluster, and ultimately, that "hunt" wasn't successful in the actual hunting aspect. They got a meal (rip Javi) but didn't directly hunt anything when they stayed together.

So, they'll learn to split off, turning what they've learned from soccer into a means of survival. And we see some of this in the original pit girl scene. Their voices are coming from all sides. They aren't together. Soccer teaches them to become wolves.

Ep 7: Nat

Hello! This is about up to Episode 7 of Yellowjackets, and ONLY episode 7 of Yellowjackets. I have not seen beyond the seventh episode, at all, and know NOTHING about this show. Please do not spoil it for me.  Things that are spoilery in nature, for me, include: saying things like  “Just wait!!” confirming or denying anything I put forward, outside information about the cast interviews or creator statements, leading questions like “Do you think “blank moment” means anything?” etc. Remember  that Y’ALL HAVE SEEN THE SHOW AND I HAVE NOT. This informs the way you  talk about things relating to the show. Just be really careful is all  I’m asking. Also: If there is LITERALLY any stance I  could take on this show or character that would make you upset, please  just fucking block the tag

If you WOULD like to discuss the show and my takes on it, the Discord is right here! I don’t go there, so it’s a great place to get every emotion out.

Please thank @sailorsunspot and @moonlight-frittata for backing this odd way of doing a liveblog, and remember my tip jar is always open

Oh Nat, what the fuck can I say about you that I haven’t said a thousand times before? Actually, i will say that I love that they are really giving Nat a bit of a heel turn here, because I was so prepared to be like, “Ah yes, the disconnected,cynical alternative girl is the only real one. Groundbreaking.” and I think the show has taken pains to show that, no, Nat doesn’t know jack shit, and she is a codependent asshole who seems to care only about Travis and refuses to let herself stop being hung up on that. But no, even her involvement with the blackmail, trying to shoot a man, suggesting that she is going to be able to figure out who did this and save it all, it’s all about Travis, it’s always about Travis, and as long as nat is fixed to that spot, it doesn’t actually matter what she learns because it will never ever be enough. She cannot let herself see other worlds. 

It’s a great and fun development for me when we show Travis about to go with the other girls, out of a sense of chivalry or whatever, and Nat straight up asks him not to go. Now we can debate all day long and off into the night whether or not it would actually be helpful for Travis to go or stay, but none of that has anything to do with Nat’s calculation here. It has everything to do with the fact that she’s selfish, that she wants him, that she is pinning so much to the two of them. She’s like an extreme opposite of Taissa’s lack of emotional engagement with Van. Travis is the only part of her future she can see, and it’s equal parts compelling and pathetic.I suppose I will grudgingly admit that I like where she tries to generically sexy-talk, and Travis rejects it. He wants Nat to be Nat, even when they’re fucking. 

 I wasn’t sure where I wanted to put this, such things that straddle the girls are always difficult to handle, but when Tai talks about how they got home lives, and Nat got nothing, I want to point out that this was always Nat’s choice. I have my own feelings about Tai and Shauna’s marriages and children and why the exist, maybe for another time, but Nat literally just…opted out of all of that in order to bum around with Travis and get drunk and do drugs togerher, and even after he disappeared on her, perhaps sending a bit of a signal, she kept pursuing the same path. Nat is to blame for at least 75% of Nat’s problems. Ma’am you are in your 40s. 

I don’t disagree with Nat, really, when she says they are just as fucked up as she is, but where I do disagree with her is where she says they’re lying to themselves. I don’t think that being able to figure out how to behave in public and keep from setting yourself on fire for at least 20 years is lying. I think it’s choosing to move on despite it all. Nat is very much not doing that. And, don’t mistake me, I think Shauna does a pretty bad job of it, and Taissa certainly has the wolf coming to get her, but I think both of them have TRIED more than Nat, who it feels like very much decided the nightmare she was gong to live in and then made that her reality. But this is part of convincing herself that she’s ‘real’ while the others are not. That she alone has a clear eye. 

Even the momentary realization that Kevyn is nice to her, and that Kevyn is stable, and that maybe, with him, she could have some semblance a normal, together, reasonable life, does less than nothing for her. He is a means to an end: she found our about Travis, she got to use his gun, it wouldn’t matter how much she got away with, with him, she would always try take more because she doesn’t know how to be happy and she doesn’t trust it. She has be outrightly cruel to Kevyn because she has to fucking convince herself that this is somehow still all her idea, that her isolation is a function of desire, and not a function of something irrevocably broken in her, that she has never made a real effort to fix. 

I’m wondering if it was Natalie who came up with the whole pit idea, as Tai suggests they wouldn’t be here without her, and Shauna even directly references being dragged into her “pit” of guilt. Could this be part of why Nat is so fucked up, is she knows she was directly responsible for murder? Does she ever wish it was her?

[paverics]

watched ep 7 and actually thought [redacted] had died and was a halluncunation or something the whole time, but then I was like “paige, you dumb fucking bitch, she’s obviously real. multiple people have spoken to her on multiple occasions”

this show is doing things to me. but it just proves that we literally just don’t know what happened, what is happening right now, or what is going to happen next. it could be anything

what a story. what a show. i love yellowjackets
