tiny lucie’s jenna things i can’t stop thinking about over a month later:
the look she gave david when he said “out of the 762 babies i’ve delivered…” that just screamed you better watch your damn self, pomatter that turned into the smile and the you almost had me there point when he finished and said “between us, she’s definitely the most beautiful”
the “i don’t have ones i love, just ones i live with” laugh/gag
the fact that she had tears literally flying off her face during all of she used to be mine (and the scene beforehand) yet still sounded vocally flawless. she cried so much her eyes were still red and puffy during opening up reprise (which, in all honesty, is a mood)
her reaction to earl taking the money. it broke my fucking heart
similarly, the fact that when earl delivers the ever-manipulative “i just want us to be happy, jenna” she musters up a forced smile from somewhere, despite the fact she has tears literally pouring off of her face, and nods at him as if she’s saying i know, honey.
the fact she always gets flour on dr p’s jumper after you matter to me. the first time i saw her, i thought it was an accident, but she’s done it every time i’ve seen her :’)
how much Warmth she has for not only becky and dawn, but also joe. she makes the relationship with joe full of such banter and warmth and there’s so much Fondness. she loves these people so much
the look on her face and her little ‘ahhhhhhh’ when she realises that ethel might be gay after all
the cast were incredible before, but they’re even better for having her to bounce off of
the way she mouths “or the baby–?” and gestures to her belly after she says “so there’s nothing wrong with me?” in the spotting-is-a-perfectly-normal-symptom scene before bad idea
the look she and liv gave eachother during opening up when i saw the evening show on the day liv made her jenna debut at the matinee
the subtle hints she gives that all is not well at home in the negative, like when she jumps when dawn grabs her and glares as becky when she snaps at her
how flirty she is with dr pomatter. she finds what a lot of jennas find a little weird, endearing, and cute in a ‘oh my god you’re such a moron’ way
saying sorry to francine :(
“would you please call me jim?” “nO i wON’t”
holding hands with david when she says goodbye to dr p after having lulu :’))
the fact she always chuckles softly at becky’s lopsided boob saga, bc her friend is funny!!! i love that lucie actually lets jenna laugh when funny shit happens. same as with ogie’s “there are no words… but i’m double parked” but it’s always so fond
when dawn called her the queen of kindness and goodness and she looked like she was going to burst into tears. that one got me
the “you’re in great hands with my husband” laugh
i’ve found this more with the west end girls in general, but lucie’s jenna and marisha’s becky love ogie from the start and get very excited about everything going on when he pops up at the diner (also definitely helps that the west end ogies have all been so much less creepy, but their reactions to him also help)
the sadness on her face when she turned around after saying goodbye to dr p, that then turned into relief and determination, and it was clear that she was certain in her decision and knew what she had to do and that she really can start her new life now
when dawn says “maybe his machinery is broken somehow…” and she looks at her like oh dang you really think that could be a thing? that’d be nice. and starts nodding gently when she continues with “what if his boys don’t swim” etc etc, until becky rains on their parade and she’s just kind of like….. yeah, valid
the fact it’s very blatant that lucie jones was born to play jenna hunterson. that’s my jenna and i’m proud
