#kanima!jackson

Three teen wolf tarot card designs I made for a project I wound up pulling out of — the chariot (with Parrish!), the moon (starring wolfed out Derek and Talia), and the wheel of fortune (featuring the jeep as the wheel).

I used the Rider-Waite cards as a starting point and tried to position teen wolf analogs to the various symbols and figures used — check out below the cut if you want to hear about it.

THEE unsub of all unsubs, listen

We're looking for a team of unsubs who are mission-oriented injustice collectors, meaning they are targeting individuals who wronged one or both of them in the past. This past offense is disproportionate to the unsubs' response, but to them it was an extreme, even formative experience, occurring while one or both of the unsubs were in high school with the victims.

The dominant partner is a white male in his 20s or 30s who is organized, patient, and practices extreme self-control to sublimate his desires. He plans but does not necessarily physically participate in the crimes, so he may be physically weak or incapacitated in some way. He stalks his victims before they are attacked and gets off on the voyeurism and knowing what's going to happen to them. Look for men with prior offenses for peeping or trespassing.

The submissive partner is physically imposing, carrying out the physical attacks on his own, but he does not have the mental or social sophistication to plan or execute these murders without the assistance of the dominant. He may be physically disfigured in some way and is entirely dependent on his connection with his partner. However, he left a pregnant woman alive after killing her husband. We believe it was the dominant partner who went back to kill her at the hospital. This tells us that the submissive partner has some lines he won't cross, which means his loyalty is not absolute. Exploiting this may be the key to unraveling this team.

Silly A:TLA x Teen Wolf Crossovers, 1/?

Braeden as June the Bounty Hunter, and Kanima!Jackson as Nyla the Shirshu

is beautiful. Yes, Jackson displayed some abusive behaviour. So did Lydia. Yet Lydia is always regarded as a ‘queen’ so obviously that’s different *sideeyes fandom* (3/3)

((aaah my inbox seems to have eaten (1/3)??? jeez i hate when that happens, but i think i can infer generally from here. also this is possibly a lot more rambling than you were expecting lol))

i know what you mean here. the difference in the treatment of Jackson’s abusive behavior and Lydia’s abusive behavior is pretty obvious within fandom from what i’ve seen, probably because of the underlying cultural insistence that men are somehow More Abusive than women and that men “can’t be abused” and even that emotional abuse/manipulation isn’t as harmful as physical, all of which is bullshit. if someone’s gonna call Jackson on his shit, then they need to call Lydia too.

that being said, we really didn’t get to see Jackson move past that behavior like we did Lydia. we got 4 more seasons of Lydia being Better, but Jackson just disappeared. we saw him hit rock bottom but never got to see him come back up, and that’s really where that disconnect in sympathy lies, i think.

where the other characters are concerned, i can’t exactly say with any authority. i know different factions place heavy blame on Scott/Derek/Stiles for the things they do and other factions absolve them completely, and personally i think both movements there have their faults. (and tbh i’ve never seen anyone really criticize or critique Allison’s actions which i find very strange cuz damn did she go dark for a while. i’d like to read some meta on her if anyone can link me to some good ones, lol).

but again, with all these characters^ we get seasons of growth after their shittiest behaviors. we get to see them move past it and develop healthier relationships and better coping methods for their emotional trauma and such, which we didn’t get with Jackson. with him we got 2 seasons of abusive behavior, a crisis, a very brief resolution that offered light at the end of the tunnel, and then absolutely nothing after that. we didn’t get to see him redeem himself the way he could have and the way it was implied he was going to, because Colton left the show. which is one of the biggest disappointments i have. T_T

as for comparing kanima!Jackson and nogitsune!Stiles (which i think is what the first ask was about?), i’m not quite sure if it’s entirely comparable if only because the kanima wasn’t controlling ALL of Jackson’s actions. what Jackson did between his transformations and the blackouts that came with them was on him. it’s sort of implied i think, but we don’t have any sort of confirmation that being the kanima affected his personality or anything outside of those shifts. until much later in the season, he didn’t even know he was being affected at all.

the only moment i can really think of where his unshifted actions didn’t seem to be entirely his own was when he attacked Allison in the locker room. that’s the only time he seemed really out of control of himself without actually being the kanima, and that’s the only reason i can think of that might convince me that he was being influenced behaviorally all the time.

he was totally a shithead that season, there’s no denying it. he was mentally and emotionally falling apart for a number of reasons, and may or may not have been under the influence of Matt (who we know was stalking and obsessed with Allison which might might explain the scene ^^?) but that doesn’t excuse how he treated Lydia.

do u mean he spurts out slime when he tops (laughs forever)

~doot doot~ A wild kanima appears
