It's gonna be a while before season 4, so here's something to keep us sane. DISCLAIMERS: - I'm both a travnat AND a lottienat shipper fight me - absolutely no threesomes and no dismissing cheating if it happens The Yellowjackets have been found at last. Deals are made, mouths are sealed, and whatever else that needs to happen for the team to move on with their lives. For Misty Quigley, it doesn't take long to move on. It seems that she's quickly forgotten what happened in the wilderness the second she got off the search and rescue plane with her teammates. She had found comfort in the person who saved them all-saved her: Nat. Desperate to save the "friendship" and prove herself, wherever Nat goes, Misty follows. Whether it is on Nat's visits to see Lottie, hopeless attempts to talk to Travis, or even during her working hours as an assistant coach at WHS, Misty is somehow always there...watching, always intervening somehow, and making sure everything works in her favor. It becomes a dangerous obsession that sparks jealousy and anger, though not quite hate, between them. This is sorta an attempt to explain the tension between a lot of characters in the adult timeline bc im impatient. Enjoy.

"Okay. I'm taking the gauze off and starting the suture." Jackie turns her head back to me and we share a look. One handedly, I try to lift myself up from my slouch and object, "Misty, really, I don't know about--" but she already sticks the needle through a layer of skin. I immediately yelp at the sudden puncture overlapping my open wound, and she stays focused and quick. "Misty!? What the fuck?" "Holy shit." Surprised and horrified yells bounce from team members as she continues. I grab Jackie's arm, probably crushing it, with my good hand and try not to sob. *PRE-CRASH SETTING* Natalie's point of view.
