Travis Martinez: Masculinity and Control in Yellowjackets

sorry for the pretentious title. i need to talk about travis for a second. i have a consistent mythos in my head about who he is as a character that i forget people don't have. yes i am embarrassed. incredibly long meta under the cut.

First and foremost, I think it is so important to remember that this guy is a LOSER. He's never been to a school dance. He got made fun of and given a cruel nickname in the 7th grade that has stuck with him all throughout high school. He hates his dad, or at least has complex feelings about him. He's never had sex. He is so insecure that it is laughable.

We can only assume that Travis's dad shaped some of his perceptions of what it means to be a man. In the pilot, we have Coach Martinez honestly, if not cruelly, tell Jackie her worth is in her influence and that she is not particularly skilled at soccer. Coach Martinez's office has several pictures of his family, yet seems distant from his wife and Travis when they leave for nationals. We can see Travis's complex relationship with masculinity (misogyny with Nat's perceived sexual history, stoicism, and aggression to mask emotional distress), and can only assume that a stoic, critical, and distant father is one of the reasons for this. But we could also discuss 90s masculinity and cultural influence as well.

Travis was not (obviously written to be) athletically skilled as a kid, and is not mentioned to be on a sports team. He had a spinal fusion at 13, presumably due to some chronic health issue like scoliosis. His father invests time into the Yellowjackets team, and we see Ben describe them in flashbacks as monsters, so clearly there is some sort of reverence Coach Martinez has for ruthlessness and success. In the original script of episode 4 (I think), we see Travis described as a "sensitive kid trying hard not to be" (or something along those lines), and I can certainly see resentment building between Travis and the Yellowjackets as they represent everything his dad wanted him to be-- athletically skilled, successful, and cut throat. He is resistant to receiving help, outright lashes out in order to maintain this fragile identity as masculine and independent.

He has an interesting sibling relationship with Javi where he is simultaneously trying to force his own thoughts of their father onto him ("Dad was a dick") and protect him from the reality/brutality of their situation (does not tell Javi he dug up the body for the ring). Coach Martinez gives Javi gum for the flight, a gesture of care, and seemingly does not extend the same to Travis. We see Javi as innocent, naive, and artistic. He is presumably unaware of the marital problems in their family, while Travis is. Where Travis resents the Yellowjackets for the attention they receive from his father, he resents Javi because he is supported emotionally and allowed to be soft.

He values honesty, and the audience can see this in seasons one and two– Nat obscuring her relationship with Bobby Farleigh is the initial reason why they break up in 1x7, Nat planting Javi’s shorts is similarly a big point of contention. He is quick to project his own insecurities onto other people, namely Nat-- any skill or sexual experience she has is an attack on his worth as a man. He consistently sabotages his relationship with her by lashing out, not because Nat is doing anything wrong, but because he is afraid of being perceived as not good enough.

Travis’s arc throughout the show is interesting, especially because the audience sees Travis in season one obsessed with control of his own image, honesty, and power. By season two, he is willing to give in to spirituality-- in winter, he opens up to Lottie's "Wiccan bullshit", seeing ritual and belief as rejecting his own ego in a productive way. I have seen a good amount of people talk about how Travis's passivity in the second and third season is his way of protecting himself from the rest of the team, especially following his assault and almost murder in 1x9, but I think there is a little more nuance than just this. There is still an element of Travis seeking control within the routine of Lottie's spirituality. He cannot find Javi following the events of doomcoming, cannot find food in the winter months, cannot protect Shauna from the risk of childbirth, so he submits himself to drinking the tea Lottie prepares, praying, and ritual self harm.

Following Javi's death, we see Travis completely submit. He consumes his brother’s body not only to survive, but also to spiritually keep Javi with him. He eats Javi’s heart as a display of devotion, reverence, and attachment. His acceptance of Nat’s leadership comes from similar motivations, and this marks his almost complete relinquishment of autonomy within the group.

By season three, he is no longer hunting. He is completely detached from the team, past Lottie, Akilah, and the wilderness itself. He spends his time tripping on shrooms to “listen” when Lottie no longer can. It makes a lot of sense why fan opinion has gotten more positive– Travis this season is so passive that he becomes pathetic, both to the audience and the characters. Van, Tai, and Lottie each try to protect him, Akilah provides him with comfort. The rest of the group does not punish Travis for his lack of contribution as they did Jackie– they largely ignore him. And once his two main acts of autonomy (escaping with Kodiak, killing Lottie) fail, there is nothing left. He does not participate in the final hunt of Mari, and the group allows him to get drunk or high with no consequence. It is only when Travis is in Shauna's way that she cares about his lack of participation. The writers have officially connected the proud, aggressive season one Travis to what we know of him in the adult timeline– an isolated addict. He dies doing exactly what he did in the woods: trying to submit himself to meaning, to something bigger than himself, and dying for it.

kinktober/flufftober masterlist

—————

you loved the smell of your boyfriend, always giving you butterflies when you buried your face in his neck, inhaling him deeply. but, something about the smell of him after working out, when he was all sweaty and musky, it just made you cunt throb, flooding your underwear with slick.

you were sat sideways on his lap, absentmindedly watching tv as you tried to subtly nudge your nose into his armpit, taking long breaths of him in, eyes threatening to roll to the back of your head in bliss.

you were convinced that you were being slick, occasionally checking his face to see if he’d noticed, keeping still in his arms. apparently, you’d been more than a bit deluded, and he’d caught on quite a while ago.

“you’re filthy, maus. are you really getting turned on by my smell?”

“i- uh no, it’s the show, not that,” you floundered for an excuse, cheeks heating horribly at the pointed look he throws at the nature documentary you’d put on as an easy watch.

“it’s okay, just admit it, and i’ll let you get off right now, okay?”

you whined, beyond mortified that you didn’t even have to take a minute to consider it, immediately giving in with a timid nod of your head.

“i really like the way you smell, kö,”

you tried to hide your face, especially when he chuckled out, “you don’t say,” outright laughing at your embarrassment.

unable to wait any longer, you slid your hand down your underwear, slick coating your fingers as you circled over your pearl, working yourself up further before sinking them into your heat. you could feel his cock chubbing up beneath you, only making you work faster at yourself, fingertips pressing into that sweet spot that made your back arch and caused unfiltered mewls to slip from your throat.

“that’s it, want to see you cream around those little fingers of yours,”

his massive hand cupped the back of your head, pulling you into his sweaty armpit, intensifying the heady scent, hairs brushing against your face as you gasped into him, whimpering with the way your own fingers were tightening that coil inside of you, already so close to falling apart in his arms.

slick poured out over your hand as you let go, shaking as you chanted his name, whimpering pleas for more. this was embarrassing one of the strongest orgasms of your life, fingers pumping inside of you the best they could with your walls clamping down on them.

your head lulled back as the aftershocks hit you, ripping your hand out of your cunt as it became too intense, overstimulation kinking in.

you were brought out of it by könig pulling your hand out for your ruined underwear, lids fluttering open to watch him lick your fingers clean, tongue sliding and sucking at your skin, eyes shut in bliss at your taste, hips rocking up into you as he let out a long groan, cumming from your taste alone.

you mouth gaped open at the sight, stunned that he just came so quickly with next to no stimulation. you guess that you might not be the only one with an unusual kink.
