just a reminder for y’all that are talking about how Daniel Ricciardo can’t fucking compete with max or he can’t compete with Lewis. Let me remind you of 2018 when he held off fucking Sebastian Vettel with a dying fucking car, or that held off both Max and Lewis in 2021 Monza. So he is that fucking bitch, and y’all can fuck off and put some respect on his name.

thoughts on Jack, Vlad, children and the timeline where Danny prevented Vlad’s accident tl;dr - Jack wants a person, Vlad wants an ideal

Jack didn’t just want children, he wanted a person, and he wanted to watch that person grow up, he wanted a baby, a toddler, a child, a teen and an adult with all in between and after, he signed up for the whole package, and he’s excited about the whole package, he’s excited for his kids to grow up and show him the kind of people they’ve become

and partial proof for that is in the lab suits he had made for Danny and Jazz preemptively, yes of course, he was a bit short-sighted in thinking Danny would come after him and Jazz after Maddie, but still there he acted out of love for something that was yet to come

and while Jack may not get everything right, while he messes up, while he tends to be overexcited about his own interests, because he loves to share, there seems to be room with him, room for what Danny and Jazz enjoy without him

because it’s part of who they are, which is ultimately why I think Jack has an easier time accepting Danny for who and what he is after the accident, regardless of how many years of research that overturns, because he wants the person, and Danny The Person is now half ghost, and now Jack wants to find out about that, no matter how messy that makes other parts of his life - because he wanted the person

but all Vlad ever wanted was an ideal, which is probably why he went totally off the rails with the cloning when he couldn’t adopt Danny, but that’s beside the point, because children cannot be ideals, that’s why he and Maddie didn’t have any in the timeline he was spared, that’s why he didn’t want Maddie to have her lab, not because he forfeited his own passion for the research, not because he didn’t love that part of her, but because allowing either would have led her to Jack and broken his ideal of a marriage and relationship with her

after all, it could be argued that they should have had at least Jazz since she takes so much after Maddie in appearance, and wouldn’t have Vlad doted on a little Maddie, no? but why would he care about that, when he doesn’t really seem to care about children themselves, and only really about the ideal they represent

now extending that logic onto their friendship, Jack wanted the person, he didn’t just want a friendship for college, he wanted joint-research papers, a shared lab, working on gadgets together, being ghost nerds together, he wanted ten, twenty, thirty years from then, he even wanted the struggle, and that’s why he so readily forgives Vlad at every turn, because he just thinks that’s part of the deal of being friends with Vlad, but Vlad just doesn’t see it like that, and even if he eventually understood he’d have a hard time coming around I imagine

meanwhile Jack would still hold on to their friendship for a good while, because if Vlad understands his point of view, surely there is a way to reconcile in Jack Fenton’s eyes, but it depends on Vlad to make that work, how willing he ultimately is

Soooooooo....s’been a while, huh?

Update, I’m not dead! Just incredibly stupid — I’ve been locked out of my account for months, though it’s not like I’ve even opened this godforsaken app in about a year.

Truth be told, I’m mainly lurking on TikTok these days — that damn app is somehow even more cursed than this one and YET I’ve fallen deep into it’s dark depths and have failed to resurface...well, until now.

A lot’s happened — not just living through a two-and-a-bit year long global pandemic, but a lot of things in my personal life too. I’m okay, for the most part. Been through the good, the bad and the ugly. But this year is the year I’ve felt the most nostalgic in a long time, and I gotta admit I’ve missed this dumbass app.

I’ve missed this blog — I’m still an active Killjoys/MCR fan, heck I saw the boys last WEEK! They were, of course, unbelievable. I’m still reeling from that gig — I don’t know if it’s because it was the first concert I’ve been to in the last two years or because I’ve waited at least 10 to see the boys live, but it was a million percent worth the wait and will be one of the most incredible experiences of my life.

So, what happens now? Well I honestly do want to start posting on here again, especially with the resurgence of so much new MCR content from the boys. I love this blog and I want to become more active, I just can’t promise how active I will be. Somehow this blog will be turning 4 this year — I can’t really believe that either — but I don’t want to just leave it gathering dust as I have for gods knows how long it’s been.

I’m still as passionate about this fictional universe as I’ve been since I was 15. To all those who’ve stayed, thank you 💗
