I know it looks kinda horrifying and there are gonna be diehard Jax fans that are gonna be mad when they saw this, and I’ve seen the finale(enjoyed it). So please put the pitchforks and torches down, and hear me out.
The reason why I turned Jax into a blooming flower; Are known for representing femininity, along with some inspiration from peeled Jax from their(I’m using non-binary pronouns, because Jax was canonically transfem. But rejected that part of themself until the finale. So I chose the safer option, that they’ve neither or both use he/she pronouns) nightmare scenario from episode 8. Inside the flower petals underneath Jax’s skin and overalls are of the same colors as Jax’s eyes when they tried to abstract in episode 7(Beach Episode). I know what you guys were thinking, the floral tendrils at the center next to peeled Jax; I didn’t realize until I’ve finished coloring them that these matched the colors of the non-binary flag, simple coincidence. But I chose to color the bottoms black to contrasting the colors inside the inner petals, and the yellow parts of them was meant to be signifiers for pollinators to signal that the flower itself has pollen and nectar. Speaking of tendrils, they have Jax’s face on them to symbolize that the laughing faces on shadows that mocked Jax for opening up(yet another callback from episode 8) were of Jax’s very own creation, as a self-defense mechanism.
