The more the show progresses, the more I want to see the 90s cast infiltrating the modern timeline. We've gotten hints of it with Shauna and her younger self, her Jackie hauntings. We've gotten a little more with adult Lottie seeing teenage Nat (and Laura Lee), and with Natalie getting teenage Lottie in her final moments. I want more. I want the teen cast to be absolutely invasive on pivotal adult moments, infecting their adult counterparts when least expected. I want Taissa's argument with Van to dissolve into their teenage selves, their bond endless and timeless and inescapable. I want Misty absolutely wrecked by young Natalie lurking around corners, watching from mirrors. I want to see these women unable to navigate adulthood without the specters of their teenage selves cropping up absolutely everywhere, more and more as they let the memories in, as they stop being able to repress the trauma. They didn't grow up. They never could. You are always doomed to regress around your high school teammates. You are haunted by the phantom elements of your misspent youth. It is a comfort, and it is a gift, and it is a trial, and it is a curse. I would love to see that reflected with greater intensity, until the lines blur, until the timelines have no choice but to intersect. They haven't escaped themselves at all. They didn't grow up. They just got older.

#yellowjackets #yj meta #yj theories #i love the moments of younger cast popping up in the modern timeline so fucking much #i am truly obsessed with the idea that they look at one another and they see the girls from the woods #they don't see the adult versions at all. they don't see adults in the mirror either #the older i get the more i feel like i'm 10 or 15 or 20 in a body that keeps outwardly aging #and if that's going to hit anybody it's going to be these people who have never been able to leave the hell of their adolescence behind #give me hewson and savoy brown popping up in the middle of a taivan fight (or makeout. i ain't picky).#give me thatcher continuing to appear to lottie and to misty in moments of duress #give me nelisse staring shauna down as she tries to backpedal into suburbia #haunt! these! women! haunt them GOOD #(also outside of narrative purposes it would be so fun to see the dual roles intersect. actors playing the same character getting #to play together. scenes where they blend. it would be satisfying in so many ways. i yearn.)
