okay, it has been a HOT fucking second, but it's time for the rest of my jackie taylor is a lesbian and she knows it (or she at LEAST knows she likes women) thoughts for the pilot (this is a continuation, if you feel like this is abrupt click the link <3)

jackie trying to set shauna up with randy LISTEN she does it in SUCH a lesbian-minded way...like ah yes, a boy that can be an accessory and what if you dated randy and you wouldn't like him (i KNOW you wouldn't like him) and i kept dating jeff (i don't like him and don't you KNOW that i don't like him?) and then we could always insist on double dates and every time i have to go out with jeff, i'd actually be going out with you <3 <3

jackie is not even looking much at shauna's outfits when shauna turns to her for feedback and y'know why??? the existence of BOOB DRESS!!! the sheer lesbianism of that line continues to amaze me. shauna! just wear the dress i got you that makes your boobs look sooooo good pleasssse?? LIKE HELLO??

shauna gets frustrated which jackie clearly didn't expect, so what's she gonna do?? immediately make a joke <3 back off <3 try and make her smile <3 (sidebar idk how people read this scene as intensely mean and controlling jackie like i beg you to watch again, they're teenagers being teenagers, jackie unintentionally upsets shauna and shauna gets frustrated and jackie smooths it over and shauna chills out like that's the scene baby)

jackie being sooo happy that shauna is joking again (this is one of those times we see the smile/laugh that only shauna really gets out of her)

she's got her arm around jeff but her eyes on shauna for much of this scene and we get a completely different jackie here with jeff than we saw in the opening because she is PERFORMING! like this is the man she makes herself tolerate serving his purpose for real, such a young lesbian experience

okay that is ENOUGH of that man (truly three seconds with her arm around him, where her eyes were still on shauna not him), jackie hands jeff her drink and immediately reaches for shauna when she wants to dance

okay more performance yes, like she's clearly putting on a show here but also?? it is SOOOO obvious that little miss broody shauna is watching right now and jackie actually looks directly at her for good fucking measure, like she is very aware of shauna watching her and shauna's attention being on her. she does this AGAIN when she's desperate for shauna's love/attention/affection in doomcoming when she walks away with travis (to FUCK HIM IN SHAUNA'S BED)

the compliments scene? so fucking flirty, so fucking gay, so clear that this is their usual dynamic. like the level of baby dyke flirty love in the i dunno...you haven't said anything nice about me yet and all the little smiles and the ritual of it the you're my best friend as a stand in for i love you like we really don't get a ton of them precrash but the pilot establishes SO MUCH of their relationship prior to all the trauma so beautifully ughhh

jackie wanting to be dropped off first GOD THIS SCENE, it is so often taken as her being selfish for selfishness sake (or out of fear of her parents) but she also does NOT want to be left alone in the car with jeff!! we saw her discomfort with being sexual with him right away in the pilot, it was immediately established, he ignored every sign that she did NOT want him to be touching her. i don't know about you but this was a dance i did allll the time at that age!! the plotting to not be alone with the boyfriend!!

also her performative happiness with jeff EVAPORATES, like that is for public straightness perception, she does the minimum saying bye to that man and then she hugs shauna like its her goddamn job

jackie taylor queen of gay-zing tbh

y'know when your parents are terrifying but your girl got really anxious last time you flew somewhere so you steal your insane mother's valium for her??

but that's not enough so you have to GIVE HER THE HEART NECKLACE THAT YOU WEAR EVERY DAY AND SAY THERE NOTHING CAN TOUCH YOU NOW (because you have my heart, you have my love, jackie taylor ALSO queen of discomfort with saying i love you verbatim but saying it in a million other ways, this is a thought for another day but!! a heart!! that she wears!! next to her heart!! for the girl who has her heart!!)

of course she's also got to watch shauna put it on (gay-zingly) and did i need to include 10 screenshots of this moment to make my point?? MAYBE NOT but YOU'RE WELCOME cause LOOK AT THEM!!

more to come eventually <3 <3 this one was largely fun sweet precious honestly compared to the last and the ones to come, so yeah i really went wild with the photos <3 <3

jackie has influence & she’s a leader & she’d never go along with the plan to hurt a teammate. natalie says that the plan ice ellie out is wrong & they need to play like a fucking team & lottie says it doesn’t feel right but it happens anyway & everyone is to blame. right from the start these 3 were leaders set to be martyred in different ways… accountable for the violence even though they tried to keep the peace as best they could…

#hi can we talk about Jackie Lottie Nat parallels?? can we ?? I’m going insane #Yellowjackets s1 #Yellowjackets pilot #jackie taylor #natalie scatorccio #lottie matthews

The yj subreddit is a cesspool of bad takes most of the time but I just saw someone make the connection between the strawberry lube and the fact that Shauna is shown eating "strawberries" when she's eating Jackie and I'm vibrating

#again it is just wild to me how people dont see the queer narrative between shaunajackie just bc it isnt explicitly spelled out for them #and even wilder that some people truly believe those of us that DO see it are engaging in a 'fantasy'#especially when things like this exist #or like every scene involving jackie and men but esp in doomcoming where she all but admits shes sleeping with Travis bc she loves shauna #how many people in that sub are like 'i saw queer vibes in the pilot but they dropped it the rest of the season' huh???#did yall not see the dollhouse #did you not see saints #did you not see doomcoming #anyway rant aside #idk how ive never seen anyone point out the strawberry thing before #i love it #i wanna look for more jackie/strawberry parallels #yellowjackets

the other yellowjackets definitely unironically referred to Jackie and Shauna as "mom & dad"

#shauna shipman #jackie taylor #yellowjackets #shaunajackie #jackieshauna #jackie x shauna #tai and van definitely started it #lol i was rewatching the pilot and when Shauna says “Jackie wouldn't like it”#it gave very *tired dad shrug* “your mom's gonna have a fit when she gets home and sees the mess u guys made”

the way nat was the one jackie took all of her insecurities and frustrations out on and yet it was nat and only nat to truly give jackie any sort of dignity and apology after cannibalising her. even goes as far as thanking her. nat was the only one to refuse to freeze out their teammate in the pilot and now, despite it all, she’s doing that for her team captain, even after they’re gone.

#i SO wish we got to see more of their dynamic #the way in the pilot jackie said she admired how unapologetically nat was herself #while jackie herself felt like she had no identity #i am. having thoughts.#yellowjackets

mirrors and reflections in yellowjackets (part one: the pilot)

yellowjackets pilot (2019) / behind the draped mirror by colin dickey (2015) / on dionysus by svetlana kirute (2022) / venus in venice by anne hollander (1998) / venus with a mirror by titian (1555) / aphrodite and mirrors, author unknown (2009)

#i will do these for the other episodes eventually. because mirrors/reflections/sight are so huge on yj #and also because i am personally obsessed with mirror mythology #and both the jewish side and the southern american sides of my family made damn sure we covered mirrors when speaking of the dead #and when i tell you i gasped at both jackie and laura lee being the ones to hold handheld mirrors up #jackie taylor #shauna shipman #jackie x shauna #laura lee yellowjackets #lottie matthews #lottie lee #van palmer #yellowjackets pilot #yellowjackets

I’m rewatching the Yellowjackets pilot. Has anyone compared the opening shots of Natalie meditating in the pilot to all the shots of Lottie meditating in the compound in season 2? Also, I’m noticing Natalie’s rehab session is focused on how “violence is never the answer” compared to Lottie hearing “does a hunt that has no violence feed anyone?”

Another thing - Natalie’s talk about “what we did out there” has SO much more context now that we know she became the leader.

#lottienat #parallels #natalie scatorccio #Yellowjackets pilot #these are probably obvious things #but still
