brother put on a movie and there's a character stalking another character and usually stalking plots don't trigger me but maybe it's the way the stalker is portrayed... feels a little too familiar mmm. anxious. im gonna be paranoid for the rest of the night
Fucked up ship bingo but with some actually slightly fucked up ships: Kim x Chan....... toxic student-teacher vibes thots???
my thoughts and feelings about this pairing are too complicated for this bingo. alas. I need a thousand fics about them being toxic and manipulative and traumatizing <3
this is more than the normal car chase there have been sirens and emergency vehicles speeding down the road intermittently for at least 10 minutes. huh
every day another car chase 🙃 this city is a nightmare
What hurts me the most when reading TSC is Jean’s naivety. He spent his life being abused emotionally and physically by both his mother and father, and then being thrown into Evermore where he faced abuse from Grayson, Riko, and his coach. Despite traveling, he hasn’t known anywhere else except the nest and his hometown. In the locker room at Trojan, he lifts up his shirt, thinking they’ll overlook his scars just like the Ravens did. He talks about what happened in Evermore to Jeremy and is genuinely confused about how it isn’t normal, believing that’s how it goes for every sports team. This boy legitimately does not understand the full extent of how he was abused and bears every imprint of cruelty done to him. Over time, he has built this deeply rooted belief that he deserves what happened to him.
Jean is naive to the kindness the world can offer. He’s skeptical and dumbfounded when treated with respect, unsure if it’s a mirage or real. All he’s ever known is abuse, and although I know he’s healing now, I can’t help but wonder what would have happened if Nora had made him attempt like in all the other drafts. Would we have known who he truly was outside of Evermore?
It hurts so much to see the remnants of Kevin and Jean because Jean was so so so in love with Kevin and he feels so hurt and betrayed but he still trusts Kevin so much, he still wants him to come and do the interview with him, he knows Kevin wouldn’t have sent him to Jeremy if he was dangerous, and Kevin is so gentle with Jean in a way he isn’t with anybody else.
Me: trying to remember everything I have to for an exam and STRUGGLING
Also me: You know, I get it. Being raised as a superstar must be really, really difficult for you. Always a commodity, never a human being, not a single person in your family thinking you’re worth a damn off the court— yeah, sounds rough. Kevin and I talk about your intricate and endless daddy issues all the time. I know it’s not entirely your fault that you are mentally unbalanced and infected with these delusions of grandeur, and I know you’re physically incapable of holding a decent conversation with anyone like every other normal human being can, but I don’t think any of us should have to put up with this much of your bullshit. Pity only gets you so many concessions, and you used yours up about six insults ago. So please, please, just shut the fuck up and leave us alone.
