This might be obvious, but I feel like it's often misunderstood about Jesse's character.

When confronting the Apex and running away with Lake, his number does not change. They don't get his exit right away, it doesn't appear after this dramatic moment of him standing up for himself and his friend.

"But Yellow! It's about the pacing! It's about the drama of them running away!"

Wrong!

For one, Jesse's problem isn't that he can't stand up for himself. Because he can! And he shows us this!

"It looks like your punching wasn't doing much good either."

"I was yelling! It's still my turn to yell!"

He talks back after Lake mocks his approach. He puts his foot down and defends himself.

"Pft. You would."

He antagonizes Lake after the flecs outted them as a criminal. He doesn't bend to Lake's whims like someone who's spineless.

"You better not tell mom!"

He doesn't grovel for Nate not to tell their parents. Doesn't promise to make it up to him later, doesn't try to lighten this blow at all. The way someone would if they always played both sides.

Defending himself is not his problem, not really. It's not even just people-pleasing.

"Don't tell me what to do!"

"I'm not gonna be a part of anything like this. On or off the train!"

If it was? This would have been the scene Jesse got his exit. There's enough build up for it, we don't need the chase scene before it, we could still have the flex show up after Jesse's exit closed with Lake on the other side.

But it isn't.

"I've got you. We're getting out of here."

It's only after he reassures Lake that his number changes. After he promises to stay with them, to side with them.

Jesse's issues were about standing up for others. For defending other people, even when it wasn't convenient. Not about him.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO SEASON TWO INFINITY TRAIN YAYYYY

A little bit of my infinity train Au

People who still think Infinity Train got cancelled because they, sanded a character to bits, cremated a conscious white man, and okayed a monster with severed arms make me laugh because Owen, the man, Dennis has already confirmed that CN & HBO had no problem with their insane deadly ideas. If anything they were pretty quick to approve them.

Yah wanna know what didn't get approved so quickly/approved begrudgingly? Jesse's American Indian/Native heritage and the Rymin's heartfelt conversation about how it isn't easy to be Asian American/Asian Canadian in any creative industry. Why did Jesse being himself take 7 months to be approved? What did Dennis mean when he said a similar thing happened with Min and Ryan?

FUCK

I can’t believe I never posted this :| happy super late birthday to book 2. The drawing is actually a re-draw of some fanart I made when I first became obsessed with the show. I seriously don’t know who I’d be without this show. Probably someone who doesn’t talk about cartoons like a rabid animal. This show, but specifically book 2 has been so formative for me and I will forever be grateful for the lessons it taught me. The friends I made in this fandom have been some of the coolest people. Anyway, I’m sorry I’m super late

[trihallow746]

I haven’t seen anyone do this before (tho someone probably has) and I’m genuinely curious about the community’s favorites so please humor me 🙏

[sammuelin]

Jesse: your hair has grown

Lake: and why do you care?

I wanted to come out as non-binary but I don't have a persona design so I drew Lake instead (because comfort character and stuff)

Happy Pride month!! :D (sorry for being kinda late I have exams this month)
