i hate how much people mischaracterize nat.. she has possibly the strongest core moral system of all the yellowjackets. aside from laura lees, probably, but laura lee’s morals come at least in part from her faith, nat’s come from the fact that she is genuinely just a good person. she is verbally against icing anyone out of the group. she is against stealing (she only took the candy she paid for when she broke the vending machine). she worries about the group noticing jackie not pitching in so she wakes her up in the morning. she has to be talked down and held back because she tries so hard at first to save javi.
nat is a good person and just i feel like a lot of people just put her in the box of “chaotic morally fucked baddie” but that’s not rlly who she is..
Going on a little bird watching trip in the wilderness and running into a feral cult dancing and howling around a fire with man’s head on an alter:
i’m actually getting exhausted at this point guys yellowjackets is an extremely queer & sapphic show 😭 like no it’s not the L word. because it wouldn’t make any fucking sense for it to be the L word. these are teenagers from the 90s who have weird and complicated relationships with each other who grow up into emotionally stunted adults who continue to have weird and complicated relationships with each other. i need you to stop discrediting the extremely queer way jackie and shauna were written, the devotion courtney eaton and jane widdop played their characters as having for each other, the ways in which christina ricci has played and talked about misty’s sexuality and feelings toward men, the obvious ways in which travis can be read as a trans woman. i need you to stop discrediting all of this just because they’re not portrayed in a stereotypically sexual and romantic way, just because the themes of this show aren’t spelled out for you. not every queer person is going to look the way you want them to. not every queer showrunner (because, i will remind you, bart and ashley are both queer) is going to write queer characters in the most straighforward way. it’s frankly fucking insulting to see so many people accuse yellowjackets, a show full of beautiful and complex and fucked up queer female dynamics, of queerbaiting and not being gay enough. watch heartstopper if you want a romcom. this is something different. just because queer representation doesn’t look the way you want it to doesn’t make it any less queer.

I need Mari to be pit girl simply because she’s too funny to die, I need her to call shauna a gaywad as long as possible
