hello im thinking about jessica telephone welcome to sunny thinking about jessica telephone hours featuring sunny’s many headcanons and also whats on the wiki if it happens to coincide with my opinions and probably not the common jt fanon this is gonna be long
i subscribe to the pies version of jess for a lot of pre grand siesta blaseball. teenage dirtbag!jt, who skates poorly and gives unintelligible interviews and invents SKATE JUICE and keys bam margeras car. but i dont think it was always at that intensity. i think before she got shelled the first time, she was a little bit of a disaster emboldened slightly by her status as this fantastic blaseball player, but she reigned herself in a bit for the sake of pr. tried to look good for the fans and whatnot. but then she got shelled and she just stopped caring about that.
she got shelled and listened to whatever music the janitor was playing at night in the oven as she waited in that shell after everyone else went home for the day. she memorized rap god which would go on to be one of her claims to infamy, of course, but like. she must have been so lonely.
and then she got out of the shell the first time, and she became a little hellion. enough to get regularly chewed out by the pies pr team probably, but i imagine other members of the team like mickey or ed or ruslan would have defended her cause like, shes just a kid really and theyve seen what the splort can do to people, but also i think she just, didnt care at all about what people thought of her anymore. truly my wildest head canon is that i think she would have been friends with tillman, comrades in pissing people off. and i think she probably started having real fun.
but then the fans shelled her again. and she would have gotten so angry. and the pods gave her a chance to be a real villain for a while which would be fun, but then she lands in kansas city and i think shed just be tired. of like, not being in control of her home or her image or her own choices for so long. and then the coffee cup happens and shes shuffled again. and eventually her teams goes up against club de calf and she plays SO poorly. for multiple games in a row. and i cant help but imagine that its a form of rebellion, choosing to play poorly to have some sort of control because there on the opposite team is beasley day, her former teammate and goodest dog(s) in the league. and she pays all of her attention to that dog instead of the game and thats her choice.
and then i think over the siesta, she grows up a little. she matures. she starts acting in ways that let the spotlight fall off of her a little. (never entirely). and like, i dont think everyone ages during the siesta because blaseball is weird. but i think she does. and i think she finds a happy medium between bending over backwards to please fans and acting out to spite them, and she lands somewhere around sticking up for herself.
and then the fans wimdy her back to philly. and the pies welcome her back but it feels different this time. theyve kept in contact obviously, because once a pie always a pie (its the whole team, no matter what team you happen to be on), but she puts the uniform back on and it fits her better now. she wears it differently and the other pies are so proud of her. and she sees nerd pacheco in their shell, and sometimes, she’ll stay long after practice and just sit nearby and maybe talk to them (because she knows they can hear her) and sometimes she’ll just play music, frequently metal. just so they arent quite as alone as they might have been otherwise.
and when nerd breaks out theyll have opinions on music that werent there before, and a friend in jessica telephone
