6, 16, 37, and 69 for Jessica
6: which party member do they relate to the most?Ā
definitely lucas. jessica is a pretty down-to-earth person for her line of work, so she finds it difficult to relate to the supernaturals. now, you might say ābut bee! lucas is a wizard cultist and nik is just a librarian? shouldnāt jessica relate more to the more ānormalā human?ā and thatās an excellent point! however, consider the following:
1. biker gang / street racer solidarity, and
2. nikās a nerd and jessicaās a jock
thank you for coming to my ted talk.
16: what are their feelings on the people who raised them?Ā
horace boarston iv and felicia tailpipe had expectations for their daughter that were as lofty as they were entirely at odds with one another. horace wanted an heir to his successful hog-farming business. felicia wanted a successor to the throne of ocean springs underground street racing champion. jessica, against all odds, kinda did both of those things. her parents are very proud, and respect the choices and compromises she has made. jessica loves her parents and the legacy theyāve given her, but is not at all looking forward to the day she has to tell them monsters exist. much less that theyāve possessed some of the hogs.
37: what is their favorite thing to hold?Ā
oh, thatās easy; thereās no place jessica boarston-tailpipe feels more at home than behind the wheel of her
2011 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
so itās the wheel. the wheel of the truck is the thing she likes to hold
69: how would they describe their party members?Ā
nikolai hughes: nikās a fuckinā dweeb. it feels a little mean, but itās true! no two ways about it, nik is a massive nerd. i donāt hold that against him, of course. his nerditude is the only reason any of us are still kickinā. ...what, you want me to say more? um... well nik, if youāre reading this, sorry we keep getting your house destroyed. not sorry about the nerd stuff, though. thatās just true.
ianthe: iantheās like a puppy, kinda. is that fair? that feels a little reductive, but like. she really tries her best, and it doesnāt usually go right, but the trying is the important thing. well, thatās how i felt about her, but thereās been somethinā of a wrench throwin into the whole ianthe sitch. apparently sheās tryinā to end our whole, like, plane of existence? but she doesnāt... want to?? i donāt know, man, itās over my head. itās like... theyāre like a puppy who works for satan, i guess?
matthew midnight (REAL NAME): mattās fucked up. like, heās seen some shit. hell, heās DONE some shit. it freaks the hell outta me, if iām beinā perfectly candid. but, like, what doesnāt, these days? oh, right, matt. whatever the hell he got up to back in the old days, he seems like a good guy now. he certainly ACTS like heās the moral keystone of this operation, anyway. not- not to say that heās evil, or anything... whoof. just thinkinā about that guy tires me out.
lucas lerouge: lucas is a chill hang. i guess he has a pact with a demon now? is that part of his whole sun cult thing, or separate from it? did one replace the other? i canāt keep track of this shit. whatever. him ānā me used to race together, before. yāknow. monsters.
the twins: okay. scratch what i said about matt freakinā me out, the twins are genuinely fuckinā horrifying. like, eat-peoplesā-souls horrifying. with ianthe i feel at least a little confident that weāre gettinā through to her, changinā her ways, but the twins are. like. beyond our comprehension, much less our persuasion. even still, though, theyāre helpinā us. god knows why, but iām not about to turn them down. who knows whatād happen.
