Jean having more of a reaction to boba tea than he does to trans people is so in character in a way I can’t even explain

jeremey is the polar opposite neil. Neil will spend pages upon pages internally describing his insane traumas while whole days pass in book time.
meanwhile Jeremy is like “i am experiencing trauma beyond belief. Check out this cardboard dog i got cuz my parents won’t let me have a real one :)”

There are people bothered by the lack of plot in TSC. And I’ll be honest, I don’t get it. This is Jean’s story now. And he has different needs and priorities than Neil did.
I remember I was probably somewhere around the 60% mark of TSC when I realized there wasn’t a major overarching plot like in many books. And I wasn't even mad. Like I love the original trilogy but something I always miss in books with so much going on, we miss out on so much of getting to see the characters exist and just be. So with TSC, that’s what I was enjoying the most. Watching Jean learn to exist and eventually heal in this new environment. Have new experiences and live. That’s his whole story thus far, healing and learning this new life.
In TFC, Neil barely had anything but stolen moments to try to cope and deal because there was always another crisis around the corner for him to deal with next. With Jean, most of the worst had already happened by the time we got to his story.
There are moments where Jean’s retriggered and small obstacles that set him back, but it's nothing compared to every major obstacle Neil had to deal with. And I'm more than happy about it because Jean needs a break. He deserves it. Jean still has some of that fight in him, but it's buried between so much of his conditioning from Edgar Allan, that he could not keep pushing through each next major thing the way Neil could.
All Neil knew was how to fight and survive. All Jean knows how to do is submit and endure. He would not have survived a story similar to Neil's.

I’ve decided that I’m going to reread tsc but like a chapter a night & pretend it’s a new fic I just found instead of heartbreaking canon content

If anyone needs me I’ll be thinking about how Neil josten very sweetly borrowed a pen from a waitress to put out a hit on one of jeans abusers (I want to punch Grayson very badly) in literally the most casual way, made the literal fbi wait for hi to finish his drink, told them they were illegally parked, ate his takeout in the interrogation room, and did not stop sassing even when they like threatened him.
Please Never change Neil josten

My favorite thing about TSC is that this alternate version of 2007 has boba tea
Edit: okay so I’ve been told that there was boba in SoCal in the 2000s but there definitely wasn’t in rural PA (my hometown just got a boba place like 6 months ago) (also I was 8 in 2007)

So glad that I reread TKM the day before I started TSC
It made the overlapping chapters hurt so much more 🥲
