I've spent the last week reading "At the Center" by the talented @therentyoupay, it's a beautiful and heartbreaking story at the same time!
Once I started reading it, I couldn't stop, and those who have already read it will understand me (and if by any chance you haven't already, what are you waiting for?!) The story is a roller coaster of emotions that never stops! (My heart has been so beaten up by it, but I'm a masochist and I keep reading)!!!!
It's such a well-written story in every sense that it has now become canon in my heart and head!
I'll never be able to watch any of those movies in the same way again because I won't be able to avoid looking for them in the other respectively because now I feel like they have been together since the beginning! WAAAA
Anyway, I'ld like to share an interesting fact that perhaps some of you may not know...
Did you know that in the Latin American dub of both; Frozen and Rise of the Guardians the voice actress for Elsa as a teenager and Jack's sister is the same? (Andrea Arruti)
Additionally, their first line of dialogue is basically the same too?
"(Jack) / I'm scared" :'(
When I saw that scene in Frozen for the first time, I had a déjà vu, and right after that I remembered the scene with Jack and his sister, and something "clicked" inside my head.
And now that I read At the Center, "something simply BOOMED"!!!!!!
It was so easy (and natural) to imagine the interactions between Jack and Elsa. I could almost hear Elsa calling Jack for help (and protection) as his sister did once.
Remember that at the beginning of the story, their relationship was more “fraternal”, he saw her as someone to protect, and eventually he has the same protective feeling towards her, but now from a different perspective. <3
(This transition of perspectives was so damn painful!)
Jack, despite what many may think, has always had a protective instinct (being a Guardian in every sense of the word), and seriously, At the Center is a wonderful journey that allows us to get to know and explore the characters with so much depth (especially Jack).
I will be eternally grateful to @therentyoupay for writing such an amazing story, I hope to read the end someday when she decides it is the time to continue it.
En fin, JELSA FOREVER!!!!!
