Just came here to say that this charlotte and Samantha tiktok is how I see janie and justine (@fcrmidable) in my head

[jerriais]

So weird starting janie blog when i was 14 and then 12 years later still having her. She was far too happy when i was 14. Now shes still a golden retriever but i understand what it is to be a pissed off little old lady. One can be a golden retriever and still tell people to piss off

[jerriais]

DM me to connect on Ao3 :>

[jerriais]

Partially to hold myself accountable

I'm working on a book with Janie as the protagonist. It's an original story, so she's not exactly Jersey, but the heart of the same character and her themes are there. My muse @fcrmidable (Justine) makes an appearance and @partofthemain (Edward, Nova's muse) is the 2nd protagonist

I did a first draft of a novel for her in 2020, but stopped when i had to begin grad school. But I guess if I still want to do it after this time, I have a serious want to finish it.

So whenever it's done, you'll have an update here :) In the meantime, DM me if you want to connect on Scribophile.

Yall im sorry i got caught up in work stuff

[jerriais]

Let's part the veil! What would a dialogue between mun and muse look like?

I think we'd get along well, but that her bluntness would occasionally sting! Not in a mean way, but I can see her being honest sometimes about when my sense of fashion is off (I'm trying to improve it lmao). Janie's a lot like ENFP-type people I know in real life. Anyway, I could see a sample dialogue (let's say in 5 lines) going something like: Moi: "I'm always cold, even when I layer up. It's like I need to dress for the arctic." Janie: "Well yes, because you only put on 2 layers. You haven't lived in Florida for two years, you should know by now." M: "Yeah, but I'm proud." J: "Well, do you think it's time to be humble?" And at that point I'd roll my eyes but smile because she's right.

[monacomonoikos]

"Does a group of women turning around to say 'Hi Barbie' to me when I'm not dressed any different count as iconic behavior? I'd like to think so."

[jerriais]

"Yes, I'd like to think so. I think you could be stereotypical or fashion Barbie easily. I'll join you and be mermaid Barbie. Except maybe without the plastic pink hair..."

[fragmentmemories]

Boo. Marie thinks Albert was a bore--Though she thinks most people are boring if they're not on her level of chaotic.

She pouts, "I'm fun. Spend the day with me!" Marie takes Janie's hands and bounces, looking less like a grown woman and more like a spritely little pixie. "We can be fun together!" Or lonely together. Both is good.

[jerriais]

It is a bit like being in a club with someone who's already a few drinks in when Marie takes her by the hands. Janie can't help but laugh. "So you'll make me less of an old woman... What's your idea of fun now, thought? Is it cabarets or painting? I can't quite guess which would be your favorite now." Janie's eyes glance to something in the distance, suddenly shy by the hands holding. Victorian habits die hard.

Ehm, yeah, I s'pose it is... normally the other way around, though.

[ His voice meanders as most of his attention is fixed on his wrist, tilting his hand back, or angling it to catch different amounts of light. For the moment he's oblivious to her suspicions, which is probably for the best. ]

And if it's not, then normally it's meant as a joke, I think, a lot of the time...

[ It's close enough to his nose, so intent is his inspection, that if she'd bopped him on the arm he probably would have hit himself in the face with it. ]

... which really ain't what I'm going for exactly. Right, anyway, I reckon, I'm probably blue-toned? So a more leanin' away from red sort of pink is the shade I want, yeah?

[ With that sorted, Peter scoots over to her side, trying to get a look at her phone screen. It's important that she gets a good first impression! And, what if there are unmarked spoilers?? Spoilers for a twenty-six year old series?? He has to look and ward them off! He's suppressing the urge to pre-emptively gush and fawn (some more) over how cool this character is, but it's a bit like trying to force the carbonation back down into a pop after you've opened it. Still, he is doing his BEST. ]

I can't believe you only got into colour theory two centuries ago. [ Peter rolls his eyes, mischievous and bright. ] Sheesh. Who taught it to you though? Someone I know? Was it any fun? --And, yeah, that's her there! Her hair's short in the film, thank God, but I'm still goin' with her main outfit besides that.

[jerriais]

Sort of, yes. As long as it's more of a reddish pink than a peach or coral, it should be fine. I had a feeling you would be cool-toned. But I think that's because I am, and I'm biased with us northern islands. [Yes, she called him an island.]

[Janie angles her phone so they can both watch her scroll through pictures of a woman lavishly surrounded by roses, swords and... Oh, another woman? This is getting more obvious. She nods as if it's all clicking.] Ah, see, with short hair, you're already halfway there to looking like her. Although I have to say, I haven't a clue what this story is about by the photos?

[She puts her phone to her chest as if it's her shield.] Oh I'm sorry, when did you get into color theory? You came around at a time when it was more than well-established! I had to find it from the beginning. It's like discovering a band before it's on the radio! Anywho, it was Sir John E. Millais. Or he was the one who was patient enough to explain it to me in full, anyways [A soft, fond smile graces her lips.]

Always had a soft spot for me, that one. Don't tell anyone, but I was even the model for the Ophelia painting. [Silent pause] Alright, that's a lie, I just wish he'd asked me. [ A laugh. It's not very serious for her.] But really, he used plenty of color on his paintings at a time when academies were asking for subdued tones. And now he's celebrated- Which I think says something.

But ehm, Sea-- For the con, it's at Derby, yeah? Please go with a mate. I'm assuming you already would be going with someone, but it could be helpful if you find, I don't know, a bus driver who doesn't want to let you on because he's... [What's a good word?] ... An arsehole. There's power in numbers.

[jerriais]

This is very janie core

@jerriais continued from here

"I have been in the shadows of the trees and the laughter of children!" Which is to say, Marie has been depressed as fuck and hiding away in her flat under luxurious sheets and quilts. You know how it is. "But now I am here, darling, to grace you and all the little people with my presence!" You know, like it's a charity act. Or something. "Tell me, how has the little world changed without me in it?" Definitely for the better.

[jerriais]

“Little people?” In the past, Janie might have raised her eyebrow at her companion's hoity toity attitude. But she’s heard it all before; so to lighten her day, she plays along. “All the little people are doing their usual little people things. You know, behaving poorly on planes, surviving a summer that feels more like fall… Now I know how Camus felt. ” Oof, is this Janie complaining? That’s weird to hear from herself. One can tell by the way she widens her eyes. She reels back. “I should think of something fun to do today…” Tapas come to mind first.
