I haven’t talked about my headcanon/au that Janet Nettles and Principle Quinlan (Quin) are Ricky’s cousins in a while.
I do not remember why I decided that that would be sick, (other than Janet Nettles and Quinlan are voiced by the same actress and look similar in terms of character design.) but I love the idea of Ricky being the oldest cousin having to occasionally babysit headstrong preteen Janet and terrified kid Quin.
- Ricky, Janet, and Quin are related through their mothers.
- Janet and Quin idolizing Ricky as the bravest and coolest cousin ever.
- Quin had a huge crush on Cassidy as a kid.
-Pericles HATED Janet and Quin and would go off to do his own thing when they were around. To the point that Janet and Quin only saw Pericles once or twice when they were kids.
- Ricky hates taking them with him when he’s mystery solving, but Janet wants to be involved and will make it Ricky’s problem if he tries to delegate them to staying in the car when mystery inc is
- when Ricky goes missing, Janet and Quin searched for him.
- Janet and Quin drifted apart after everything. Janet dealt with everything better than Quin, Quin has chronic anxiety that she doesn’t deal with well.
- Ricky hates the sherif, partly because Janet is dating him.
- by the time Ricky reveals himself as Ricky Owens again, he’s 37, Janet is 32, and Quin is 29.
- Ricky is bi, Quin is a lesbian, and Janet is the only straight one. Ricky and Quin both have a good taste in women. Janet has a terrible taste in men. (Ricky also has a terrible taste in men. But like nobody is gonna call him on it because he’s only been in a relationship with Cassidy anyway.)
- the cousins met for “family dinner” a handful of times during season 2.
- Quin had a breakdown at a point upon seeing Ricky again. It messed Ricky up too, because he really does still love his baby cousin. He justifies Quin’s fear with the notion that he’ll make it up to her when he finds the treasure.
This one finally came back to bite me in the ass🧍 Job 2™️ added this song to the playlist…… so now at LEAST 2 times a shift I’m disassociating while ringing someone up because this is playing in my head
When I worked at Target, it was during the winter, and this guy comes up to my register with a neutral-colored beanie with a fake fur pompom on top. All embarrassed and cringing, asking me if it was a woman’s hat and if it would be weird for him to get it.
I was like, “It’s just a hat. If you like it and you wear it, it’s not a woman’s hat, it’s just your hat. You don’t need to follow what the tag says if you don’t want to.” And it was like I gave him some kind of awe-inspiring wisdom he’d never considered, and he left with that hat on his head.
More cishets need to hear and internalize this message because so many of them are avoiding things that would make them happy just because of it having a label on it for whatever gender.
"that doesn't sound sincere- it sounds rehearsed" is one of the most devastating and fucked-up statements you can make to anyone in the neurodivergent/ADHD/Autistic/Schizophrenic/Disordered Personality sphere. yeah bitch it's rehearsed. because i wanted to get it right when i said it
