isnt it so interesting and so reflective of being a teenage girl how the yellowjackets collectively and sort of automatically/instinctively assign certain roles to certain members of the group, often roles that involve getting their hands dirty and doing things that are anywhere from gross to ethically questionable to truly morally reprehensible but necessary for their survival, because no one else can stomach it, and then they punish her for acting out the exact same role that they assigned her?

#im thinking of nat the hunter lottie the girlprophet and shauna the butcher here #roles that feel like they were created just to be hated and scorned #i mean i think it makes sense on a certain level that the group dynamic NEEDS clearly defined roles to function #especially in such a precarious situation #and someone has to play each role #but those three in particular seem to be set up to fail #they're damned if they do damned if they dont #i may elaborate on this eventually but i feel like i need to see the full extent of the wilderness play out first #but to my other point its ACTUALLY LITERALLY JUST EXACTLY THE TEENAGE GIRL EXPERIENCE #you get put in a box and if you try to get out of it then everyone hates you #but if you live up to the expectations everyone still hates you #ok after so many tags im arriving at my thesis statement #its about how the group is so prepared to punish people for the very things they know they benefit from #do you feel me?#ok. anyway ending this here unless i get a second wind and want to delve into specifics #yellowjackets

Blood Drops on Roses: Settling in (19/80)

Wild, Twilight, and the travelers settle into camp for the night. Wild is uncomfortable. Tw: none (threat of stabbing?)

“Woah!”

Suddenly, Wild felt a pressure against his back. Arms encircled his shoulders and went around his neck. His throat tightened, his breath caught, and his fingers clenched around the handle of his paring knife.

But he recognized the voice: the young sailor, Wind. It would not be acceptable to stab one of the travelers—especially their youngest—directly in front of them.

Wind set his chin on Wild’s shoulder. “Are you cooking? You can cook?” he exclaimed right in his ear.

janet drake as phyllis neffler from troop beverly hills, in this essay i will-

#janet drake #i actually probably do have an essay on this and it involves jack and janet both surviving haiti #and are in the middle of divorcing #and janet also decides to become more involved with tim after haiti (like jack did for a bit)#and she decides to either start hosting tim's w&w groups #or tim decides to lie to her about being in a wilderness/survival club and she decides she needs to be his group leader #...cut to tim dick and bruce having to lie to her about tim doing robin stuff disguised as the troop doing stuff #and all this with the personality of phyllis neffler #imagine they bring her to sudan in legacy because the wilderness troop is getting their ruin excavation badge #anyways unlike the movie she does not ultimately get together with the asshole stbx husband #eta: also the fake troop consists of bruce as co-leader dick tim jpv and ives (who also has no idea what's going on) it is a giant mess #eta2: also devlin catches wind that bruce is supposedly in charge of a wilderness troop #and also forms his own troop just to compete

I just think every Iterator should have a little slugcat floating around bothering them. This includes Chasing Wind.

#Rain World #Chasing Wind #Slugcat #Chaos Art #the slugs name is Painter and their head is empty #they were supposed to go find Moon for CW #but CW felt too bad about just. sending this little guy off into the dangerous wilderness.#so its Free Pet Slug

i think it's my own if-i-can't-see-it-it-doesn't-exist excatholic sensibilities but when it comes to the paranormal elements of yellowjackets i'm one hundred percent taissa. why can't lottie just be a kid lost in the woods without the means to control her mental illness, latching onto whatever feels realest in the moment? why can't the cultishness that later resulted not have been all of the other kids doing the exact same thing? reaching for whatever they could eat when they needed it? why does there have to be some creepy old ghost in a cabin when the human fears and exhaustion and needs of the characters are already carrying the entire plot easily? i think in the case of yellowjackets, like so many survival dramas, adding an extra element like that winds up overcrowding the story, especially when it's already playing around with how linear it is and juggling multiple dynamic characters and actors

#or maybe im just a cranky skeptic in real life so i have to be with tv too lol #like not with shows that are Obviously About Magic or whatever . but shows that don't LOOK like that kind of genre #but are sort of vaguely hinting at it. no just say yay or nay and get on with it #it's not that i want to know from the outset how to think about the show. just that i think it might be one thing too many here #also: IF there is a supernatural element it leads into two considerations for me:#one) the fact that supernatural element + north american wilderness survival story often winds up dipping its toes into #indigenous mythology and similar subjects . and too many shows/books do that Really Badly Actually #two) the lottie thing again: if she's actually a psychic whose medication is just 'suppressing her visions' i hate that plot #feel like it's overdone and then there's the whole 'medication is unnecessary; you can always trust your brain' concept #or a sort of fear/dismissal of a) mental illness b) getting help for mental illness #which is very easy for that plot to slide into . and honestly with lottie i feel like it already has #yellowjackets #q

this is mostly just an idle thought but like. I told someone today that most of the stuff I enjoy is "cringe" but I don't think that's it? I think that when you pare it down, what I enjoy is the sincerity that comes through when someone writes something that they just think is really fuckin cool. And that gets called "cringe" like... a lot of the time.

#this was originally about name of the wind bc that's the brainrot for today #but it's also a little bit about stuff like what Sanderson writes and the wilder elements of The Dresden Files and even bits of Transformer #because yeah it's bizarre and over-the-top and weird but also. like. I love it. I love all of it #and I think part of WHY I love it is because I can tell that the author just thinks that a zombie dinosaur or people talking in rhyme #or a soap opera about robots that turn into cars #is just FUN

hi! im having trouble understanding the part where lottie told everybody that natalie has always been the wilderness' "favourite". may i know why? its been bugging me for dayssssss

i'm sooo sorry it took me this long to reply to this!!

so. to be completely honest. i'm not exactly sure?? like. there's obviously the fact that she was saved during the hunt. but i don't know why lottie would say it's "always". maybe because nat was the hunter and for months the wilderness gave her the animals to feed her and the group? maybe lottie knows more than the rest of us and maybe (probably?) it'll be explored more in s3!

or maybe lottie was improvising that seemed like the right thing to say at the moment to really establish that nat is meant to be the leader that lottie doesn't want to be

if anyone has any more thoughts about it please share!!!

#lottie misty and the wilderness fighting for natalie's love hsgjfhgjf #i'm picturing lottie sitting against a tree just talking about natalie and the wind is giggling and blushing and saying aw yes i love nat <#yellowjackets #answered #anon

There was a wilderness, and Cal was dust in the wilderness, and his hopes and dreams were dust in the wilderness, all driven before the same unforgiving wind.

Quote

And as they sang, the fear and the suffering of the long winter seemed to rise like a dark cloud and float away on the music. Spring had come. The sun was shining warm, the winds were soft, and the green grass growing.

— The Long Winter (Laura Ingalls Wilder)

Bridger National Forest, Wyoming.

A second backpacking loop through the Winds! I started at Boulder Lake and climbed Boulder Creek Canyon being sure to stop by the North Fork Falls on the way. The end of the day was wandering past many lakes finally finishing at Lake Vera.

i finally have. solid ideas for robot master ocs. i talk in the tags

#i have a pair #husky man and his brother for the opposite function cheetah man #husky man is deployed in tundras and other snowy wilderness places explorers might need to be saved #maybe just in a really cold village he'll be there #hes BIG like 7'5. hes got fur and warmers built into his chest and arms and hands. very strong to pull stranded vehicles etc #can you tell hes based off balto yet #BUT despite being a little intimidating hes very gentle and caring but being built to care for people makes him a bit of a pushover #and tyhen there cheetah man whos built for helping people stranded in hot climates like deserts #hes smaller and a lot less bulky than husky man to be FAST like a CHEETAH #he doesnt have fur that would be counterproductive and he has a built in fan on his back to point at people #AND a storage compartment on his back to hold cold drinks and stuff #despite being smaller he is still very strong. carries people and runs very fast so they get that good wind #hes very confident! think sonic the hedgehogs personality #ok ythats all #|blazar stone|

I AM LITERALLY SO EXCITED TO BE A RANGER HOLY SHIT

#I barely care what the pay is (its $21.20NZD an hour!! which is alright)#I'm just beyond ecstatic that I'm going to be able to protect the endemic and native wildlife and conserve important natural features #and clean up trails and make them more accessible for all and look after the native plants and pull up invasive weeds and bait traps #and feed takahe birds and clear blockages in the rivers to help the eels and restock the huts for any hikers and even clean the fucking loo #I want so badly to be knee deep in mud and shivering from icy rain and buffeted by biting wind I can't fucking wait holy shit #I've completely changed directions career wise #I was going to become an artist but the industry SUCKS and I don't want to turn my passion/hobby into a chore for capitalism #BUT BEING A RANGER?????? I'LL BE HELPING THE ECOSYSTEM AND PRESERVING WILDLIFE AND FURTHERING CONSERVATION EFFORTS #I LOVE YOU AOTEAROA I LOVE YOU PAPATŪĀNUKU I LOVE YOU KAKAPO AND KERURU AND KEA AND RURU AND TUI AND TUATARA AND #GRAHSDGJDJHHJASDHAD IM SO EXCITED TO MAKE THE WILDERNESS BETTER FOR BOTH ITS INHABITANTS AND ANY VISITORS #robin shut up challenge #caps
