Immediately made me think of that one singer nana au and I just had to show it to you
Tumblr media
Nana likes to take Jack home with her and show him nice little treats she's gotten over the years of singing.

I love that trope where the giant gets tied down like in Gulliver’s Travels. Whether its one tiny or a hundred tinies tying down the giant, whether the giant is afraid or confident, fearplay or not, it always HITS
Giant that gets tied down by the monster-slayer (who’s never killed a humanoid monster before) and looks so sad and eepy that they just cant bring themself to do it, and lets them go.
Giant who pretends to be caught and completely submits to the tinies because its amusing, only to break out and cause havoc moments after the tinies think they’ve won.
Giant who gets tied down and ask if the tinies really, truly think this is going to hold them?
Humans who get tied to the kitchen floor by a group of borrowers (whom they did not know existed) who are tired of them stomping around in the early morning hours all the time.
Giant who tries to be scary and cocky but actually these ropes are very tight and… they cant break out for the life of them, making their threats meaningless.
Giant who gets tied down and keeps trying to tell the tinies they’re not a bad giant, promise! The tinies do not believe this despite the sincerity of the claim. Shocker

L'APPEL DU VIDE
okay so. jack! jack. what a collection of guys. the overlap between jack and the beanstalk and jack the giant killer, though. that sure is something! sometimes king arthur is there, which always takes me by surprise.
this. specifically. is an idea I've been kicking around. jack and the beanstalk is not a story I've ever enjoyed, as a kid it was probably my least favorite to read. as an adult, I was INTENSELY fascinated by reading j.g. ballard's the drowned giant. I think about it frequently, and somewhere during a re read of it, I ended up revisiting jack.
combining different versions of jack into one character is not a new concept, but it IS a fun one! the version I've been assembling together plays less with the fun elements of a jack story (and adjacent folklore stories), and focuses more on the potential for tragic elements with the addition of the usual grim and jagged narrative edges that I personally enjoy.
jack with the backstory of the devil and the three golden hairs, only jack doesn't find love, he's TIRED, all he wants to do is go home, but there isn't a home to go back to. what is the point of being born lucky if this is what it gets you? jack the giant killer, only he doesn't want to kill giants, jack who saw a body of a giant when he was a small child and cannot bring himself to do as a king commands. jack, who climbs up the beanstalk and stops halfway to look down. etc.
to go back to the drowned giant real quick, both to set the tone about jack seeing the body of a giant as a youth, and also because I've been haunted and obsessed with this excerpt of it ever since I read it:

J. G. Ballard, The Drowned Giant
anyway! this was originally like, a two illustration concept to get out of my system. however. I'm halfway through outlining a narrative. so. maybe it will also be several illustrations and also comic.

Jack is a bit clumsy when it comes to picking up what Nana puts down but eventually he gets it.

If you need a reminder we’re in the darkest timeline look no further than the outline of the adaption of into the woods we could have had back in the 90s

This version also would have had all the creatures in the movie played by puppets made by the Jim Henson company.

I've been drawing these two making out since 2015 and they're the #1 reason my art has improved
EASY TO SAY IF NOT FOR THEM, I WOULD NOT BE WHERE I'M AT RIGHT NOW

I've encountered quite a few vintage human giants in the course of my research.

SPEAKING OF MARRIAGE. have you ever drawn them at their wedding recently? what would their dresses look like.. what would be their song.. who would be invited.. would it be huge or lowkey.. would anything go wrong or would it go off without a hitch.. inquiring minds want to know!
I sadly haven't drawn them in their matching wedding dresses recently 😭 I think the last time I did was this Encanto Redraw
Tumblr media
I really need to update them though especially since I had wedding lore for Lore itself more fleshed out.
AS FOR THEIR WEDDING SONG...maaan I really need to put time aside to specifically put together their actual wedding playlist. There are both SO MANY choices for them yet none because all the songs I have picked for them are too fast pace for a more traditional wedding vibes...I DID cheat a little while answering this ask and look up a list of good R&B songs to play at weddings and found out Jamie Foxx and Beyonce's duet "When I First Saw You" is a REALLY good fit for these two.
When it comes to guests, they would def invite all their close friends (so everyone in Briar Patch basically). Pinokuni is def Jack's best man with Kai being one of his groomsmen while Ashe is for sure one of Nana's bridesmaids along with Xia being a bridesmate.
I see Jack and Nana getting married as the cliche fairytale ending for Beanstalked so Jack SOMEHOW accidentally invites all the cool folks they met throughout their journey together. He'd do it in the "I wanna be nice just so no one feels personally excluded because all these guys were really nice and helped us save the world" and not really expect anyone to truly show up save for 3 or 4 people...
...and then Jack and Nana find out "Oh everyone we sent an invite to actually showed up and now we actually have to figure out how to seat 50+ people in one location"
So it started off initially planned to be lowkey only for it to become VERY highkey at the last second.
It isn't much of a problem though because the spot they have their wedding is outside. SPECIFICALLY at Nana's dad's final resting place..which sounds wild BUT LEMME EXPLAIN--
When he died, he purposely made sure he was in his big ass wolf form so that he wouldn't be hauled off by hunters and taken from his family. So there is a giant wolf skeleton that is located in the Lupine Forest that is kind of one with nature now so it's covered in greenery. It's a little unsettling to those unaware of the lore behind it while also still being serene. Nana goes there often when things get too hard so she can talk to her dad.
She wanted to have her wedding there so she could make sure her dad was present. And Jack was more than willing to oblige her.
Miraculously, even with the giant guest list, everything goes off without a too much of a hitch. I wouldn't say entirely smoothly since that's a lot of people and there's some shenanigans afoot especially at the wedding reception since that's when everyone parties.
BUT it's a very fun experience for them both, even for Nana who is the #1 antisocial of the village.
The couple did take a very well deserved honeymoon in a much quieter place afterwards though. Poor things had to recharge and fully process they were husband and wife now.
