Yellowjackets Prediction:

Antler Queen/Final Boss is Tai

I feel like this makes perfect sense and is not talked about at all. Tai’s dark persona taking over is really being hinted at this season and it makes sense that the girls will go for that after Shauna (inevitably) goes off the rails and ruins their chance to go home.

It’s even hinted at in the final image of the title sequence plus the wilderness is always giving her stuff (Van getting better, Tai is the most successful of all the girls to come home). I feel like the creepy man she sees everywhere is this dark persona that takes over her and the show is building up to her finally giving in to it.

To me the crux of the story in Yellowjackets will always be a reflection of how modern major societies continuously and systematically fail the most vulnerable.

Every character in this show is a victim one way or another.

Lottie was born into a privileged life but was othered by her own mental illness and constantly failed by a world that continuously silenced and isolated her rather than guiding or dealing with the issues she didn't understand how to address.

Natalie started with nothing. She is the reflection of many children in America who are born into families that do not have the physical, economic, or emotional resources to care for them.

Travis very clearly has some sort of anxiety disorder and has been shown to have a history of being bullied and even ridiculed by his own father. God forbid a young boy have any type of sensitivity. Beyond that, his character is a very deliberate example of a survivor of sexual assault- an issue that is never really addressed by the perpetrators.

Taissa was born into a middle-class privileged family and a great deal of pride and ambition that was likely learned or reinforced in some way. She also was a teenage, mixed race, lesbian in the 90's. She had every instinct and drive to succeed despite a world that was structured so that she couldn't.

Jackie was born into a privileged, suburban, white family- but she was still a teenage girl in the 90s with perceptions of who she was forced onto her.

Shauna was the stereotypical poster child of teen angst in modern America, but she also had a deep set insecurity and maladaptive issues that were never looked at or acknowledged.

All of these children undergo a tremendous amount of stress, loss, grief, pain, and both physical and emotional trauma that changes them forever. But then they return to a world that is indifferent to all of that. Their pain is spectacle. Something to be publicly agreed upon as a tragedy. But they don't ever receive the care they need from it. They are shuffled back into a world they no longer fit into and expected to return to their roles as proper, civilized, demure young women and gentleman.

The tragedy of Yellowjackets was never about the horrors of survival in the wilderness- the tragedy has always been that this is a very clear depiction of how society's indifference and persistent marginalization of those considered "other" can push people to the brink of destruction or their own humanity.

Nat with Lottie in ep8: Sweetheart, angel, baby let’s go please okay? Everything will be good my love <3

Nat with Shauna in ep8: GIRL WTF JUST WALK U DUMBASS MOTHERFUCKER

Okay.. so I kinda just said fuck it to the original concept and did all of them (my bad Misty)

"with tears in my eyes, i begged you to stay."

"i love you, but no fucking way."

Reasons why all the yellowjackets are gay 

Shauna: became the butcher because she’s more butch than all the other butches 

Jackie: was gonna climb that girl like a tree in seattle 

Nat: sees someone with soulful deep brown eyes and keels over, does not matter the gender

Lottie: soulful deep brown eyed lesbian jesus

Laura Lee: homoerotically baptized lesbian jesus

Misty: became an alcoholic to honor her dead situationship

Van: calls sex bow chicka wow wow

Tai: eats dirt like she wants to eat pussy

Travis: had the sophie thatcher right in front of him and couldn’t get it up 

Mari: mindlessly follows whatever woman is in charge atm like she’ll die without a dominant woman around at all times

Ben: doesn’t want to touch mari. Like okay then, outta my way gayboy im boutta get it

Akilah: gay asf to have been a girl scout. What are you scouting, other girls?

Melissa: has worn the same molding loser lesbian snapback so frequently it went from bright pink to mental illness gray 

Gen: it was totally possible for travis to have taught her how to hunt but she just had to have the banging bisexual bottle blonde 

The Yellowjackets as glee plotlines with no explanation

Shauna: Sebastian blinding Blaine by throwing rock salt at him, then subsequently arguing with Santana by singing “smooth criminal”

Jackie: Making two student have sex so that they could be better at a high school level play

Nat: Terry Schuster getting the kids high in school

Lottie: Finn thinking there was Jesus in his grilled cheese sandwich

Taissa: Blaine wanting to propose to Kurt when they weren’t even together (he also cheated on Kurt and dated his high school bully)

Van: Brittany agreeing to be shot out of a canon so the cheerios could win a high school level cheerleading contest

Mari: Terri Schuester faking a pregnancy, then trying to get Quinn to give her kid to her/ kitty giving Marley an eating disorder

Misty: Mercedes throwing a brick to destroy Kurt’s car after he didn’t reciprocate her crush (he’s gay)

Laura Lee: There was a gas leak and Blaine imagined all of his friends to be muppets and they sang “what does the fox say”

Coach Ben: Mr. Schue fighting to allow the kids to twerk in school

Travis: Brittany becoming a math genius the year after she had a 0.0 GPA

look I know people dislike how unhinged EVERYONE been this season but like am I the only one who a. thinks it's realistic given their character arcs and b. just kinda loves it like the more unhinged the better

Brother I’d die in the crash or just kms I am not built to survive

It was so other Tai who sacrificed her for van cause there was time between their meeting and her death

so are we thinking it was tai or shauna? maybe melissa but i kinda doubt it idk

day 28 - pick an actor and draw them

i owe my life to @yellowjacketsfashion for this one their work is insane

Everyone always gets on yellowjackets for being fucking weird with the number of  background characters and changing actresses and lacking depth for a lot of said background character and everything all the time but thats the point!!! That’s the point of it!!! All the surviving Yellowjackets are unreliable narrators!!! Most if not all of the surviving Yellowjackets have mental conditions and if they don’t they sure as hell have endless trauma. The flashbacks are being told by them, 25 years later, when they have spent all that time trying to hide and deny everything that happened and everything that occurred and all of it is messed up. They don’t want to remember it all, they don’t want to remember their dead teammates. Sometimes it’s impossible to tell which characters are flashing back to which segments. Sometimes characters are inexplicably absent. Sometimes some people remember more than others. Sometimes random characters appear who have been absent all this time. Like, Crystal appeared as a character out of the blue when Misty was feeling abandoned by Nat and was remembering her first best friend. Characters are recast because who can even remember what those girls looked like anymore. The consistent characters are the ones no one can forget. The first ones. Who is gonna forget Laura Lee? Jackie? Javi? No one. But who is gonna remember girl #3 that you killed and ate when you went insane in the wilderness? No one. Or maybe you don’t want to remember. Maybe by girl #3 you try and forget everything. You stifle all feelings and memories until you remember maybe she had brown hair, oh i think i remember her gathering herbs once, oh i think she had this hat she liked to wear, oh maybe she was around during this event or maybe she was already dead and gone and buried and eaten. Maybe maybe maybe. You don’t know. You never know. Because thats what trauma does it eats away at the brain until all you have left to tell your story is faulty memories and a heart full of grief. And i think it just got worse once Shauna burned her journals and left everything into pure memory. Even those were unreliable because Shauna was suffering from day one and it only got worse after Jackie. Nothing is gonna be consistent about a story told 25 years after the events by people so traumatized they can barely remember it themselves.

The past will come back to hunt you. #Yellowjackets Season 3 premieres February 14, 2025

PJO AU where Jackie and Misty are left behind on a quest and go on their own adventure to bring them back and find some friends along the way?

The Avatar AU featuring the world’s most incompetent Avatar

Tai: Unfollow me if you think the Earth is flat. Mari: *seriously pretends to be a flat-earther to antagonize tai" Nat: *neutral but makes polls to start fights, "Is the Earth flat? Let's discuss!"* Van: not a flat-earther but makes "the Earth may be flat but this ass ain't" jokes for viral tweets. Lottie: actual flat-earther.

claiming my i was a Yellowjackets fan before it got to Netflix ticket while I can

were you obsessed with morally grey female characters? are you obsessed with morally grey female characters? when will you be obsessed with morally grey female characters?

Adult Taissa deserved better writing

Which led me to wonder

Where tf is Taissa’s son

I hate how they discarded Simone and Taissa marriage

hey!! im starting a very chaotic pre crash and during crash yellowjackets roleplay discord server. the only roles taken are Shauna, Nat and Jackie!!! If you're interested in joining please interact with the post. It'll mainly revolve around groupchats ! 💞

Hey! I have recently started a Modern AU Yellowjackets Discord roleplay. Instead of following the 90s timeline, it will be set in 2025. This will place a modern twist onto the group, with the events in the wilderness never had occuring. This server will include social media channels, using a tweet and instagram post creator to mirror the character's social media presence. The roleplay will explore the characters in the modern period and how they use social media to communicate.

This will be a group roleplay, with all of the yellowjackets (and travis). I hope to create a community type feel out of character too and for it to be a joyful place for us to have fun! This will be a casual and comfortable roleplay, and the aim is to have fun! :)

All characters apart from Nat and Travis are open at the moment so feel free to reach out, or interact with this post and I will be in touch.

Thank you for reading <3

Hey!! I'm starting a Yellowjackets roleplay server on discord and am recuriting new members.

This roleplay will follow the wilderness timeline. At this current moment we are only accepting canon characters. The server will revolve around a groupchat, let's just say they had phones lmao, but will also include multiple thread channels.

All characters but Natalie are free at the moment!

Please interact if interested and I will be in touch!!
