Hey!! First of all I love your blog. I wish to read more of your thoughts about Yellowjackets. Now to the questions: Any ideas on how to get screen accurate clothes or simillar and a dupe of Jackie's necklace? Tiffany I am sorry but I do not have 5000$ for you! And Who is your favorite Yellowjacket, wy, what you like& dislike about her. Happy New Year!!!!
I think a lot of the clothes you could probably thrift! Like Jackie's blue & white striped sweater is pretty basic, like Old Navy or The Gap (smh Mrs. Taylor would never shop Old Navy). This site has all of the actuals, but costume budgets are usually much higher than the average person could afford.
For Shauna's flannels, you could find some at Target or Kohl's or if you're feeling like you want to spend some dollars probably Levi's and Madewell. Truly no clue where Miss Charlotte Matthews gets all of her kaftans, I don't know if TJ Maxx has those for her to steal.
For Jackie's necklace, Ebay has a bunch of less-than-5k ones (the link takes you right to the search), and there's some on Etsy as well. Looks like the silver ones are much more affordable than Jackie's gold. This one looks like a good gold dupe for approx $140 though!
As for my favorite character...... honestly that's gonna have to go under the cut I've got so much to say always!!
Both teen and adults, I love Tai and Shauna. (I prefer teen!Natalie to adult!Natalie bc I love drama, and I prefer adult!Misty to teen!Misty because adult!Misty has intention. It's not good, but it is intention lmao)
What I love about Tai and Shauna is how their journeys into adulthood are basically complete opposites but also exactly the same: selfish. Tai went "back to normal" so to speak, going to her school of choice, becoming a lawyer, dating lots of beautiful women (her words!) where Shauna just... gave up. She shrunk herself further.
And you'd think after all Shauna did, she wouldn't want to shrink into someone's shadow anymore. However, as we learn in the teen timeline, if there's a single thing that Shauna wants (Jackie, Javi's safety, safe birth) she will not receive it. In fact, it will backfire so badly and it will all be her fault. So she simply "decides" she doesn't want anything else than what she has. I don't even know if she truly loves Jeff the way Jeff loves her.
The way she explodes when she finally does let go, too, is bonkers. She is so full of rage but doesn't permit herself to experience it because, y'know, anger begets death. And she proves it to herself! She literally proves it to herself when she kills Adam! She's like... damn, can't feel anything lest I commit atrocities!!
Just love to see people repress their shit and then go absolutely batshit when they realize they can't keep doing it anymore.
Also why I love Taissa, who has gone head-first into her ambitions with no regard for the others. She said "yeah, I love my wife, but I will not listen to her when she asks me to give up my ambitions for the sake of our family. I will tell her I will, but y'know what? I changed my mind!"
As we learn more about Taissa, probably in season 3, I want to see more of how the relationship with Van devolved in their young adulthood or at least get the gist of it. Because, in my headcanon, I feel like Tai wanted Van to fit into her group and would do things that would actually be so rude "just for tonight" to make Van more aligned with how she saw her future. She probably wanted Van to dress nicer, look more put-together, show up and be "normal" in front of her colleagues. (Because I'm sure that's how she saw her college peers - as colleagues instead of classmates.) I say this with affection, of course, because while I do think that's super selfish I also get why she wants to have so much control. She has no control when Other Tai shows up, so she needs to regain as much as possible.
I wanted to see a bit more conflict between Tai and Van over Lottie, but there's plenty of time for that in the adult timeline now. But I did want to see teen!Tai get pissed about Van being soo into the Lottie stuff. Maybe we will next season? I don't know, probably not, I don't see it fitting into the timeline. I generally wish we got more of Tai in season 2 but I understand the writers had to get Natalie stuff done to align her death with the crowning.
I love Tai because she's unintentionally like... the prime competition for Jackie in the ways that Jackie is insecure. She is so confident within herself, she doesn't need to be aligned with her peers, she's fine going against the pack when she thinks she's in the right. Tai is so unapologetic in who she is, which is refreshing to see for a lesbian in the 90s on tv. She uses the "freedom" of the wilderness to embrace herself and drop the performance she had going on in the real world. And while we don't know much about her life pre-crash, if it's anything like her life post-survival, she must have put on a hell of a show. Because we see her perform femininity in public for the sake of her job, and we can see how she uses it to gain access to the world that otherwise would not be kind to her.
I could go on and on these ladies are sooooooooooooooooo!!!!!

*bangin on pots and pans* welcome 2 hell ! some more muses bcos i’m extra and cannot b stopped. cba 2 write full intros for them tho so rip but if u wanna plot, smash that mf like xDD also worth noting i put some actual effort into coming up w plot ideas for each char if u wanna snatch anything up :P
sybil raine khatri !
born rich-ish ? she didn’t live in a mansion or anything but her family owned some horses and shiz in the countryside and would always take vacations every summer
has 3 older siblings and was the spoiled baby but had a normal childhood tbh no angsty traumas or anything
was studying business stuff on the low while she was in school and saving up money and then when graduation rolled around, she decided right off the fricken bat to get started on her cafe idea cause she’s been watching too much fricken lifetime movies
came to london because she thought that hipsters, old white business men, and yoga moms would be in surplus so where better to start
truly is a mom friend she deadass always keeps vitamins and a granola bar in her bag and is always checking up on how ur doing. if u say u got a cold she’s showing up to ur door with homemade soup and everything
that one episode of the simpsons ( or movie idk they all jus blur into 1 tbh ) where ned cares for bart and leaves him some hot chocolate but does the most with it when he adds whipped cream, freshly shaved nutmeg, a chocolate wafer, a marshmallow, and then broils the marshmallow ? deadass sybil
alternatively, she’s also the mom friend who sees her friends not getting enough field time and will scream at the coach to get them off the bench and start insulting jimmy who hasn’t made a goal all game and end up starting a fight in the bleachers with jimmy’s mom
plot ideas: her employees who work at the cafe mayhaps, business rival or something :P, friends w benefits, somebody who started a rumour that she’s a funked up horse girl and now she hates them for it, somebody she always trynna get to know but they are just not having it but she loves dissecting them anyways, somebody she sees gettin hurt and immediately her mom senses start to tingle and she’s there with her dukes up
townes cressida ciurcovich !
convinces herself she grew up normal but doesn’t tell anybody her dad up and left when she was young and her mom was emotionally distant so she had to raise herself growing up
cries way too easily over anything and everything
trusts and forgives too fricken easily...... somebody funked her over and left her shattered but they wanna grab coffee sometime ? say no more. name the time and place and she’s there
cries over dead boy bands and is always the bihtc who longingly looks out the window and says “i grew up in the wrong generation....”
lives for vintage 70s and 80s fashion. honestly would shove a thrift store up her ass if she could
plot ideas: somebody her damaged ass follows around all the time, cute as shti bffs who townes can always cry to when her day’s been a disaster, roommate pals who always have movie marathons OR ALTERNATIVELY ! roommates who fricken hate each other and always get on the others nerves, memestagram co-owner, somebody who stabbed her in the fricken back and it’s the one (1) person she’ll never forgive, sugar pal minus the sugar tbh they jus buy her stuff and she gets mandy to search up nsfw rp icons to send
ridley finnick lajeunesse !
invented childhood angst ig
lived with his deadbeat mom in a trailer park and always heard the empty promises from his dad that one day he’d come and pick him and his younger brother up and take them away to live with him but that never happened !
grew up into a complete fricken miscreant
while his mom was high out of her mind a good amount of the time he had to care for his brother and himself all he could and in the end, had to turn to some shady business
grew up stealing everything tbh he probably has a lift blog
had some shady cops in his town..... sheriff was a crook with a vendetta to lock up ridley but could never get away with it, despite how often he framed him for some crimes
one day he comes home from doing whatever the funk and finds his little brother is gone and all his stuff is packed up and when his mom wakes up from her drunken slumber he finds out that his dad showed up and took his lil brother with him </3
after his brother left and he spent a miserable year trying to track him down to no avail, he decided he had nothing holding him back anymore so he got a couple of friends together and robbed a bunch of stores all through arizona until he had enough to run off and come here to london
fricken loves 2 make bannock and brings it to every get together
depressed as shit and if he isn’t being a fricken menace on society, he’s wallowing in his room alone probably having himself a noice pity party
plot ideas: ride or die who does some shady things w him, somebody he considers like a fricken sibling to fill that hole in his heart, somebody who caught him in the midst of robbing some place but stayed quiet and tbh we could build off this, a peep who saved him after he got his ass kicked in some sketched out back alley and now he feels in debt, lowkey hookup who always get together but no strings attached
rocío guadalupe pérez !
i hate myself erldjfg she’s based 100% off brittnay matthews from mpgis
grew up with rich ass parents who never knew how to say no to their baby girl and of course she took advantage of that because why the frick not ?
turned into an absolute terror but punishment ? don’t know her xx
loves picking fights and making life hell for everyone. honestly she’s lost count of the amount of times she’s been expelled for starting a fricken riot in the cafeteria or something
came to this one high school in her junior year and was walking a thin line on being suspended when she was approached by some other kid and made a pact. they’d keep her from getting suspended if she’d bitch out anybody who tried them ( aka rite here ) *
came to london for school but mostly because she was getting bored of california and needed a new place to terrorize
plot ideas: * her mackenzie zales aka the bff who tones her down and keeps her in check to make sure she doesn’t fall back into her demon phase, one sided friendship ? they swear they’re friends but rocío is always annoyed by them, somebody she spreads a rumour about and attempts to ruin their life, an old friend who funked her over and she went batshit in retaliation and got expelled for it, an ex who started a rumour that she gave second rate handies, somebody she looks up to and is always trynna impress, roommate mayhaps ! we could decide what terms they’re on :P
