//now that I don't have any exams I can and am spending a ridiculous amount of time trying to see how many universes I can put Jehan in
Me: walks out of English exam and walked immediately into Waterstones to buy £30 worth of NEW books
I like to think I can handle scary things but then I remember that I still haven’t recovered from a bathrobe falling down next to me yesterday
I just had this dream that Jehan and someone else (in the dream it was either Baby or another Jehan? Like a good Jehan) WERE IN THE BUSINESS OF STEALING wait for it WELLIE BOOTS and I will tell you about it under the cut
They would steal wellie boots and then sell them to tourists because they lived in some small town that had this cheap hotel and the only touristy thing there called for wellie boots I think. I think it was fishing or hunting or something I’m not sure
So anyway! They decide that the best way to go about their wellie selling idea was to break into one of the closed off rooms in the hotel because they knew it wasn’t being used or going to be used in a long time and the pair of them are just kids like 17/18 at the most so they decided to make a game of chucking the wellies in into the room through the window before it was made clear that they were both terrible shots and the wellies were just getting muddy from falling into the dirt all the time.
So they finally climb into the room with all their wellies and as other Jehan? Baby? Other Person starts pairing the wellies up, Jehan goes off looking to see if the taps in the bathroom work and along the way spots that there’s a hose tap outside on the little balcony thing (they’re on the ground floor so it’s part of the garden but I don’t know what a ground floor balcony is called. A deck maybe?) so he thinks “brilliant, that’ll be much easier than washing them in the bath” and opens the door. Because he is a kid and a fool. He looks up when he hears a beep and low and behold, there’s an alarm on the door that is slowly starting to count down. There’s a flash of what is probably a camera so he swears, grabs a bunch of wellies and yells at Other Person to do the same and run and they’re out of the building before the actual alarm starts going off and they run away without being caught. It was this escape that made me think Other Person was a Jehan because they were wearing colourful flip flops in wellie boot season while on a "heist” and if that doesn’t just scream Jehan I don’t know what does.
Cut to town hall meeting! Everyone is there because apparently someone breaking into an unoccupied hotel room and stealing nothing is big news here and Jehan arrives with his mother and two younger siblings! Who knew, right? I didn't. A boy and a girl. I was happily surprised. Little blonde family. Don't know where his dad was. Ooh but there was a blond guy up on the thing at the front making the speech so maybe that was him!!!!!! Wow that's really cool. Anyway, everyone is filled in on what happened and Jehan was really scared, trying to figure out if that flash he saw was a camera and if they were going to show it to everyone (it's a small town and it's a miracle if they have a picture that they haven't recognised him yet). The dream ends with Jehan trying to decide if he should just say it was him and hope they're discrete about it so his mum doesn't find out and I got way too stressed out about it and woke up so I think what to take away here is apparently when Jehan runs away (which he would have already done at this point but since the mum is alive he doesn't need to yet) he has two younger siblings which would have been old enough in headcannon for them to have already been born on the original time frame MEANING that Jehan didn't just leave his dad, he left the two kids as well </3 and also I'm far too nervous to turn to a life of crime which is, y’know, a little disappointing but what can you do.
Had a wee wander into Edinburgh today since the family decided to feck off in to the rugby without us. We just went to the museum instead.
