Good Meowth. *pets* Go annoy their canon counterparts. You might get a kick in the butt, but at least you'll recover from that easier than the mental scarring from their Cori counterparts.
...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...
Minus the big eater and crossdressing. But Cori!James isn't a crossdresser anyway and she'd make Owain an amaaaaaazing cook even though Lissa's not much of a chef and neither is Lon'qu or Ricken, her most likely husbands. And she'd draw out their supports to come off just like Out Of Maple Syrup, more wangst and regret and Severa berating herself for saying what she did even as she keeps saying it.
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*
James: MEANIE! ;_; I'm not talking to you anymore! Jessie: If it means you won't interrupt the song anymore, good.
Yeah. D: And the sad thing is, I could believe the people forgiving them ONLY because Wobbuffet is silly and hard to be mad over. CANON Wobbuffet, that is.
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.)
Yeeeeeah, true. :/ Hell, even the times Cori!Jessie DOES have to face anger and disapproval it's all forgiven. In "Where Angels Dare To Tread", James encourages her to forget all the mean things she ever did because he forgave her and it doesn't matter anymore, rather than telling her to change her perspective from "I regret it because he was mad at me" to "I had to learn a lesson in being a better friend and it's made me a better person".
(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.)
SERIOUSLY. D: I've done last-minute things before that WERE fun, but there's a world of difference between a quick trip into the city to check out a 7-11 made up like the Kwik-E-Mart, and planning an entire party.
The Lickitung fic is mercifully a little shorter, iirc, and I don't remember if it goes into creepy territory...I may end up reading it again to see if it does or not. D:
Yeeeep. D: Hell, I consider 4K words an accomplishment in giant oneshots, I don't think I could go the length that Cori does!
TCOTB is pretty much Meowth fapping over J&J's love, but luckily there's no sex in that one.
