Jean @Kevin: you are not going to send me to the happy people. You may be okay playing exy dressed like a traffic cone, but at least the foxes have psychological damage. DO NOT SEND ME TO THE HAPPY, MENTALLY STABLE, NORMAL PEOPLE KEVIN, WHAT ABOUT MY GOTH AESTHETIC!!!!
i’ve been waiting to see when he’d say it—for personal reasons, the like. moment of this confession tearing its way out of your mouth, unbidden or not, riding grief or rage or something else biting, anything, all of it; for personal reasons, this moment is always like. the edge of a cliff for me, something i look for when i think it’s coming, and this like. unsurprisingly, cut me to the quick, but as much as all my active emotional response is stuck with and on jean, rising with him, i have to like. think about jeremy or i’ll cry too much, like. jeremy starting to grab for him before thinking better of it and grabbing his own hair instead. too many people gave too much touch, and it’s the basic level of consideration, you don’t touch people without their say so, but even that basic is like. fucking unsteadying for jean. and that’s so, so heartbreaking
i need a tag for this with how many of these i’ve found now but again putting this into my “similarities between any combination of aaron-jean-neil column”
The sunshine court’s characterisation of Jeremy Knox is fucking sublime btw
• guy who is very chill and friendly not bc of temperament but because he has decided to be chill and friendly and is clinging onto that with his fucking teeth >>>>>>>>>>>>
• the gentle… not quite manipulation, but like conflict resolution and team management?
Jean hangs up on him and he calls back immediately and a) doesnt accuse or chide b) pretends it was his mistake to gently shift the tone and c) maintains focus on his goal. This is like, insane people skills and I wish we got more of it in the latter part. I would KILL to see him dealing with the team in depth
• this man hates 1: cops 2: congressmen (specifically those who are fucking his mum) 3: every fucker who ever said a bad word to jean Moreau and for that we have to give props
• sooooo many plot hooks for this guy. like he has a History and i for one am waiting eagerly to hear it
• canonically gay and horny. we have no choice but to stan.
• has a butler?!?!?!?
Just overall such a good character that managed to walk the line of pleasant surprise but also fulfilling fan hopes based on precious little canon information
