The bff necklace is what protected Jennifer Check from the boys who tried to sacrifice her. Her getting possessed was an aftermath and she could’ve lost all autonomy to the demon too (like Nikki from Obsession) but she didn’t
She was IN LOVE with Needy
Comphet made her think she has to be into boys coz they wanted her and she knew she could get her way if she pretended to want them back. She was into that boy band but even as they played their song for the first time, she held Needy’s hand tightly and smiled
“I just woke up and found my way back to you” She was dead at that point but she came back. For Needy. Even after the most horrifying experience of her life, her only thoughts were of Needy and finding her way back to her
“I couldn’t bring myself to hurt you” EVEN as the demon starved her and she lost her senses, she struggled for control not for herself but for Needy
She went BOTH ways and could’ve eaten Needy first but she did NOT. She wanted her best friend. She was jealous of Chip. The demon in her body aggravated that. She wanted Needy to want her back more than a best friend
In the end it’s the breaking of the necklace symbolizing the breaking of their friendship that led to Jennifer’s death. Jennifer’s Body was insanely homoerotic in the subtext and I’d love if the sequel is openly queer. Hear me out please, Diablo Cody
