Ofc the only conversation the duo of horror and tragedy have is

“I’m going to fucking kill you”

“okay well you like girls, sooo-“

(Can I be their third) Who said that-

“Travis suffered more than Shauna and he didn’t turn evil 🤡”

Firstly, I promise you if he acted that way, he would’ve been curb stomped by the group. The environment he was in would not allow him to express his grief in that way.

In season one, the girls grow angry when he acts out in anger after the original crash and his fathers death

“Who made him king of snacks?”

He is forced to shut up and accept the new status quo where the tables are turned. He (the man) needs to be quiet and be passive and serve the group

Shauna, on the other hand is encouraged to act this way by Lottie and Melissa

“Shauna, we need you, let it out”

“I like that you’re not afraid of the bad parts of you anymore”

And anyways, neither of these grieving processes are good. Travis isn’t grieving in a healthy way at all, and his mushroom smoking will turn into drug abuse that will ruin his life

If Shauna and Travis were to have lost Javi, Coach Martinez, Jackie and the baby in civilization, i think that Shauna would’ve sought out drugs and Travis would’ve become more violent and angry, and that’s a really interesting thought

Jackie losing her virginity to Travis instead of Shauna vs Javi seeing Shauna as an older sibling instead of Travis.

Shauna lashing out because of her grief vs Travis sinking into himself

Shauna sharpening the pit spikes and Travis setting them up

Travis going to Lottie towards the end of his life vs Lottie going to Shauna's daughter toward the end of her life

Shauna ending up with Jeff because of grief for Jackie and Travis keeping on going back to Natalie bc Javi died in her place

Travis hallucinating Lottie while having sex with Nat and Shauna hallucinating Lottie caring for her baby

Always one degree of separation from each other through another person. Jackie, Javi, Lottie.

travis’s dad putting shauna’s oxygen mask on and being thrown from the plane because of it… travis and shauna both telling nat not to “act like such a fucking saint” at different times… travis and shauna both losing two people important to them out in the wilderness, the first person being someone they loved but had a complex relationship with, the second being someone innocent that they’d wanted to protect and care for… travis bringing up shauna when lottie talks to him about grief… adult shauna showing genuine distress when she hears that travis is dead… travshauna you are so interesting to me i love your parallels

thinking about… travshauna tether…

- travis’ dad dies helping shauna put on an oxygen mask when the plane crashes

- shauna lowkey adopts javi during their first few months in the wilderness

- travis is the first one to give an offering to the wilderness to spare shauna during childbirth

- travis started his time in the wilderness violent and angry but that all died with javi and he turned inward becoming quiet and withdrawn, where shauna started quiet and somewhat withdrawn and full of love but became violent and angry with javi’s death (and her having to butcher him)

- shauna eating jackie’s ear and travis eating javi’s heart…

- travis got the intimacy with jackie that shauna wished she could have, and shauna was the sibling to javi that travis wished he was.

- “what about shauna” when lottie tells travis it’s okay to be mad about what happened to javi and his dad (being maybe the only one to recognize what she had gone through out there)

i may be missing things too but this is just off the top of my head. i love them
