Honestly Duke wanting Eulalie to be the bait is kinda dumb when pluto is right there. He's small, fast, and has quick reactions in times of danger making him the best bait in their situation.
Duke didn't chose pluto because he cares about him more than he does for Eulalie; he doesn't want pluto to be in danger or be hurt but he wouldn't care as much if it's Eulalie who was in danger and got hurt.
At the end of the day pluto is more his friend than Eulalie is
I long gave up. I now wish a good hard breakup upon jackela
Jackson x Pamela can only be saved in fanficts. They are so doomed doomed in canon it's PAINFUL.
It's not just about Jackson keeping secrets, it's both of them. They're just not working out and I don't think they ever will,
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk and hearing me express a glimpse of my frustration. Sorry for the shippers whose day was ruined though
Being in love is so funny cause you’re away from your gf for two minutes and are suddenly seeing a lot of appeal in chaining her to your wrist
these are the vibes for chapter 1 💯: Tuesday's Gone
(jackson’s pov):
AHHHHHH I AM BEYOND EXITED FOR THIS FIC! only 1 chap is currently out (16.2k words) and it’s a Jaxer/Jexer endgame!
Summary:
“The day Exer turned 19 is when it all went bad. Real fucking bad.
An earthquake set forth the catastrophe. No one in town thought anything of it, as they had become more and more used to their frequentness thanks to Exer’s little…accidents.
Okay, putting it that way makes it sound as if the boy still wets his pants. A better word would be ‘outbursts’.
Anyway, not the point.
Even Jackson didn’t freak out during the first few minutes of the trembling. He knew Exer had a good support group and it would all calm down in due time.
It didn’t.”
I’m reading Jackson’s Diary right now and Jackson is both Veronica and JD from Heathers HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Like not really, he’s only really like Veronica because he’s the main character
But he does get JD like especially with the diary version of him.
Honestly I just thought this cause the diary version of him is JD and it’s funny that he’s in a similar position as to Veronica. Just y’know with magic.
So I have a theory that Jackson's Diary is less of a supernatural and more of a story about two mentally ill people with magic involved and I decided to reread it and keep notes on anything and everything that supports that theory
PS:much easier if you read the chapter after or while reading these notes
Chp4 notes:
•exer continues proving himself as a master maniplutor. Jackson casually get everyone mesmerized with him from his first day, I can see that exer hatred for him is more than just a fight over his ex, it's hard for two maniplutors to be in the same room as it is they were set to crash with or without Brenda. top it off with David-the guy who's literally following after exer commands- taking a liking to Jackson, exer is losing control to Jackson and that's making his nice facade fall
•the way exer was able to tell that Jackson's aunt is Colombian and David saying that Jackson should get used to this because exer can basically read everyone's minds before Jackson looks wary and exer gives a very forced smile. yep Jackson already knows exer is a master maniplutor and exer knows that Jackson knows
•exer looking at Jackson to see what he thinks after Rick and Morty appear, then going to use his powers as the panel is close to Jackson's face, exer is experimenting to see if Jackson can actually see his magic
•it's very weird that Jackson think this whole mess is his doing, especially when it's not his doing but it's caused by exer BECAUSE of him seeing the magic
Clones but they are creatures.
Idk what it is with this fandom n turning clones into nonhuman entities but Im here for it lol.
A small detail I want to point out; is that when lenore almost pulled a gun on Annabel, she knew it was empty, she checked when she went through her suitcase. The gun was nothing but an accessory to scare the others off, scare Annabel lee off. Chances are lenore never for a moment thought of actually hurting Annabel physically but mentally.
This isn't going to be very nice to Lenore, and in general the "remembering in pieces" mechanic, so just don't click read more if you don't want to see me tear into it thanks.
Like I know we all love to call Annabel a manipulator, and she is, but THIS MOMENT is kind of egregious as fuck to me.
The audacity to call her a monster (AND mad) to her face and then comfort her when she reacts badly over it
The audacity to look at her like this:
and then immediately after do this:
Why is she even saying "I don't know what I'd do with myself" if she's not supposed to remember that they were close?
But then why would she be acting like this if she DOES remember that they're close???
The worst thing is that it's so obvious how Lenore cares for the Misfits but when it comes to Annabel it feels cheap? Like it doesn't feel like there's any connection there other than "I remember I'm supposed to love you but do I actually?" rather than there being any genuine emotions involved. (Is that the point???)
WHERE is the delusion? The "Annabel must have surely had a reason—"
WHERE is the trust?
WHERE is the loyalty? <- truly my biggest gripe because Annabel is so fucking devoted I cannot let it go, I can't LMAO
WHERE is her not actually being as mad as she SHOULD be despite all of her misgivings and thus making Duke and Pluto suspicious as all hell?
Lenore has never ONCE given Annabel the benefit of the doubt and I understand that in the beginning when she knew nothing, but now? NOW? After THIS
Clear realization?
At some point I have to think that the flashbacks we're shown are not things they remember in canon unless we're explicitly shown them waking up to it because THIS
does not make sense otherwise.
Lenore WHY are you not losing your mind here? After saying that you're done with Annabel's whole game?
Go crazy go feral???
Annabel gave you the same reasoning, Lenore. Why are you tolerating this from him? You were manhandling Annabel and inches away from pulling a gun on her but now Duke has Annabel by the throat and halfway past a balcony railing and you're just TALKING?
Lenore tell me. Tell MEEEE!
Is it because Annabel treats it like a "game"? She's being playfully and giggly rather than being serious and "there's no other way" like Duke, even though she said THIS
before.
That's the worst part, really. Annabel has been VERY transparent the ENTIRE time and yet Lenore gets mad over her doing exactly what she said she'll do.
Conclusion to my rant:
What do they remember, what do they NOT remember? I don't know!
Annabel is devoted to the depths of hell even to her own detriment but is that because she remembers or because she's just Like That™?
Lenore is full of doubts and perpetual suspicions, and is willing to call her a monster to her face, but at the same time she sprouts "I don't know what I'll do without you." and jumps off balconies. Is that because she remembers or because she's just Like That™?
What is going ON
It's been a week, give or take, right? So they remember, what? 5 days worth of memories? Unless they remember much, much more than just a singular happening a night?
It feels inconsistent at best and utterly pointless at worst.
Just show us the flashbacks as an outside thing, it didn't have to be organically connected to their Nevermore storyline,,,,OR have them remember everything only when they first go Specre
We’re going to find the author by process of elimination.
