Birthday Blues (Jane Version)

[Alternate Text: A header image of a forested road after a rain shower. The asphalt still glistens with water and the trees along the road seem darker, possibly saturated. There's a mysteriously gloomy quality to it. The title 'Birthday Blues' is in a jaunty font that could be found in a birthday card.]
This is a split POV writing between your Returning Visitor and J. Corvin. Though each could be read standalone, there are references/links within each one. This writing features J's POV.
Part of it is set when you were living in Fernweh, the rest is during your absence from town.
You should've been here by now.
Technically, school starts promptly at 8:30am with kids arriving at different times depending on how they get here. Biking into town often forces Jane toโฆ

2025-04-18 21:23:16 +0000 UTCJ povs are always a pleasure. Especially when Mal turns up, but I'm not biased about that at all. My RVs wife out there being cryptic and unnerving again. Love that for her. Canoodling lmaoooo I find it hilarious I genuinely did not know you used that word when I made the character sheet. Same hat.png. Jane always wishing the RV a happy birthday ๐ฅน๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ

2025-04-18 21:03:02 +0000 UTCEveryone here is going to hate apple flavored things soon. Too many memories are attached to that apple-cinnamon flavor. Ah, it's so interesting that J was worried about A getting in trouble, which would get the both of them in trouble, but getting caught ditching class was less of a concern! If the teacher called the Corvin parents to say J wasn't in class, that was an acceptable risk. AHHH. J CRIED AFTER THE HUG. NOOOOO, MY BIG-HEARTED GIRL. Jane's intensity, her thudding heart, where is it now? ๐ฅบ Petulant Josh is so funny to me, lmao. Cursing the skies and fate. The bourbon that J uses!!! Just like frosty MCs! Deliberate choice??? ๐๐๐ Dousing the letters but not setting them on fire is such a choice too. No fire, not where Josh is concerned. LMAOOO, Three come get your wife, she's doing things!!! I'm so, so, so interested in how Mal views J. Before the RV returns, Mal has no idea who their biggest rival is, right? And, I've been wondering - are Mal and A always friends in the loops? Which RO does Mal feel most threatened by. The little *unforgettable* dig, which RO does Mal relate to the most. It makes me wonder how much Mal knows about the letters!!! (Another one of J's unofficial investigations, something going down at the diner. In-ter-est-ing ๐๐๐)

2025-04-18 17:20:20 +0000 UTCJ MY BELOVED ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ Whenever i think too hard about them and their past i feel a deep, heart wrench pain but im sure its fine ๐๐ญ Obligatory ๐ฅบ moment for Verner being sweet and being totally uh... a rival ๐ฅฐ It being too easy for J to hide ๐ข the MC wouldve known where they were but the MC ISNT THERE YET!! God i love reading Js povs theyre so kind and considerate and always mindful of the mc ๐ญ J skipping class despite considering that wrong ๐ just a small scale action that they wouldnt do otherwise but becomes right if its for the mc ๐ I cant help but think about J and their dark thoughts, thinking if they would do the wrong thing if its for the MC Cant wait to see that in the main game too ๐๐คญ I was wondering what J was looking for in that diner until A WILD MAL APPEARS!!!! Wasnt expecting them but im definitely not complaining ๐ฅฐ This was just a bit after A and Mal became friends then? ๐ I like seeing the ROs interact with Mal and the way they go about it Now im only missing an S and Mal talk ๐๐ Mal is so fucking dramatic tho of COURSE they choose to show up when theres thunder and lightning ๐คฃ๐คฃ cant say shit about R because this bitch also likes their theatrics โ ๏ธโ ๏ธ Great moment to remember that Mal can sense distrust and im sure its not just the MCs ๐ฅฐ cautiously contentions dynamics ๐ Wouldnt be surprised if thats why they asked if J has someone Just subtly go for the throat ok girl The diner isnt a date spot anymore? Mr and Ms Verner definitely had dates there when they were younger and thats why R acts like that during the JR excursion right? I'm right ๐ J always wishing a happy birthday to the MC even tho they would never hear it ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ cries sobs rolls on the floor This was so good, thank you Aelsa!!! ๐๐๐๐
