"And then Jessie and James went batshit crazy again and needed four hours of wangsty therapy sex. Luckily, Meowth was nowhere nearby this time." Meowth: I'm stayin' outta dis, guys.
"This sounds like a horror movie...does this mean Ash eventually comes after them with a chainsaw? *hopeful eyes*" XD HA! I WISH! (I mean, a blunted chainsaw. Or something. Don't want them hurt, just mildly put out of their way.)
"Oh God, Severa. She'd probably be the first victim, actually! She wibbles enough around her parents and Owain in canon, in Corific she'd be nothing BUT tears even during her tsuntsun moments!" ...Good point. She'd probably be paired with Owain instead, because she's JUST HIDING HER LOVE FOR HIM because (in Coriland) SHE CAN'T BEAR TO LOSE HIM LIKE SHE LOST HER BELOVED PARENTS. D: And Owain IS a Jamesish personality...
"James: *prances around in leather corset and fishnets* Toucha-toucha-toucha-touch me! I wanna be dirty~!" Jessie: And if anything grows~ while you po-ose~ James: I've been posing for four hours straight! D: Jessie: ...Stop interrupting! *whacks him with a mallet*
"Yeah, it'd be more "oh crap I've never actually felt guilty before! Quick, stall for time! *lets out Wobbuffet*". James would be wibbling in a corner too afraid to even TRY to come forward." :S Yep. And that would be funny and touching, buuut... Corific...
"Good point. :/ It just puts so much emphasis on the big fancy apologies and them not wanting Lulu to be mad at them it's hard to tell." In all fairness, someone as insecure and emotionally-troubled as Cori!Jessie WOULD be terrified of not having her apology accepted, being yelled at for even trying, and, basically, being treated like Cori!Ash. IRONY That's internally IC.
And that's part of why it REALLY pisses me off that the whole thing is handwaved as unconditional TR-worship. Because it takes GUTS for someone like Cori!Jessie to face disapproval, anger, and potential scorn, and to have all of that dismissed into the Happyland fog... *ANGRY*
(I'm not like that, but I know people who are. I am thoroughly pissed off on their behalf, basically, even if they wouldn't necessarily be pissed off for themselves.)
"Flying blind, huh? XD Yeah, that was just like...okay, Wobbuffet narration, wangst, usual Cori fare WAIT WHAT THE SHIT?!" XD PRECISELY!
"Yeah. D: And you end up enraged or disgusted or both because WHAT IS THIS FIC'S LOGIC. Really, Jessie and James apologized for being jerks and stealing the food. They explained why they broke the rules. The people grudgingly accepting the apology I could buy. Even applauding their warped form of integrity. But THROWING THEM AN ENTIRE FESTIVAL?!" ON NO NOTICE?!
(That's what REALLY gets me. I've been in situations where people are yanked around on a last-minute basis before, and I know people who are fairly regularly. It causes them a TON of stress, frays their tempers, subtracts from their sleep budget, causes them to have issues with long-term planning over time, and all sorts of shit. And it's just all laughed off here as Happyland festivities. IT'S NOT HAPPY AND IT'S NOT FUNNY.)
"WORST IMAGE EVER D:" XD
"It really does. D: Meowth was bad enough, but a fucking Wobbuffet?" Come to think of it, it's probably fucking everyone. o_o I'm half-afraid of that Lickitung fic now...
"Considering they're co-dependent to a disgusting extreme and are basically addicted to each other...yep." YEP.
"Cori takes "oblivious" to a whooooole new level, doesn't she?" I commend her ability to see clearly and unstoppably through her own eyes. She REALLY needed to practice being ABLE to see through those of others, though! D:
"I might have to. XD" DO IIIIIT XD;;
"HOOOOOOLY SHIT" WELCOME TO CORILAND, LAND OF THE INFINITE ONESHOTS D:
"I think that's why I tend to go with "A Warm Place" or "The Cat's Outta The Bag" when I MST these things. At least those are reasonably SHORT." YEP. (Need to go do TCOTB sometime myself...
"Hahaha, I saw those Nuzlocke posts. XD Yep, you sure did earn that reward!" Thank you! XD I hope I'm going to have a good time with this one!
