She/her. 26. Lesbian. You're beautiful. Never let anyone tell you differently. This world wouldn't be the same without you.

Chapters: 11/? Fandom: Yellowjackets (TV) Rating: Mature Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Lottie Matthews/Natalie Scatorccio, Vanessa "Van" Palmer/Taissa Turner, Shauna Shipman/Jackie Taylor, Vanessa "Van" Palmer & Natalie Scatorccio, Natalie Scatorccio & Jackie Taylor, Natalie Scatorccio & Shauna Shipman

Summary:

Natalie's life has been a rollercoaster of extreme lows and incredible highs. She makes meaningful friendships that run so deep in her she can't just throw them away. Not even after what Jackie said that one winter. Or when Natalie pulled the trigger that night and tried to push them all away. She's never known a sense of peace and yet, it's all she feels when she's around Lottie Matthews.

Lottie Matthews life has been one of loneliness. Absent parents, voices only she can hear, and no meaningful connections. Her mind seems to be her enemy most days and she knows it'll never give her peace. So why does Natalie Scatorccio call her mind beautiful and says she can't sleep at night unless it's with Lottie?

WAIT A SECOND...... UR TELLING ME THISSS IS HOW NAT AND LOTTIE USED TO LOOK AT EACH OTHER BEFORE THE CRASH..???

oh GOD and liv enthusiastically nodding and smiling and agreeing saying 'they were teammates, they were friends,' as jasmin says 'oh, thats sweet. its.. tragic.' (also sophie totally implied they communicated that way outside of games cus she followes it up like 'blah blah blah')

bathtub scene is so insane because for a moment, just for a moment, you could see lottie going back to being a teenager, going back to see how she was pre crash. being with nat makes lottie feel safe enough to just let herself be without feeling like the messiah or the prophet or whatever. she is just lottie, a traumatized teenager who loved football. nat keeps her sane and safe.
