Inktober 2024 day 31
Theyre all jus happy to stab something
Happy @talesfromthegasstationexchange !!!
This is for @solarsaturns !!!
Hate to be stranded in the middle of nowhere on the road
Me calling sick to work makes me look weak compared to this guy.
I ended up loving Travis way more than I ever expected by the end of book 4. Wouldnāt have minded in the least if he ended up in the main group.
I started relistening to vol 4 and Travis is a queer man in a big truck and no one can tell me otherwise and I'm definitely going to project the guy I'm seeing on him big time
Tales from the Gas Station Volume 3: Travis
As part of his self-imposed redemption arc, Travis has appointed himself shipper-on-deck for Jack and anyone he thinks Jack might be interested in dating. Rosa. Jerry. O'Brien. Doc Howard. The Bathroom Cowboy. Travis has headshots of Jack and a dating profile that is only almost completely lies,and he will talk up his boy to anyone and everyone who'll listen.
Everyone's like, uh, Travis, this sounds like maybe YOU want to date Jack? And Travis is like, not really, but I will stretch to dinner, a movie and some light petting if it means he forgives me
Jack is desperately trying to collect every copy of that stupid dating profile and destroy them and get through to Travis that this is making him MORE angry, not less
Travis, as usual, does not get it
No but this shit gets me every time. Like, it wasnāt just a short little bit it was a solid two months of very real sensation/sound that he had to endure and keep his eyes closed. I feel not nearly enough focus was given to his experiencing of that just to be then slammed back into reality again.
(And that was just his FIRST time at experiencing tons of not-real time because of shenanigans.)
Guys, I don't think we give Jack enough credit for surviving Sagoth. He was mocked, abandoned, gawked at, and severely inconvenienced for months and persevered. He's got some unbelievable willpower.
Iāve listened to this series like 3 times at this point and ONLY JUST NOW did I get the āJack off all nightā joke. š
god what a hilarious book series
āI will do no such thing, and you canāt make me!ā Will never fail to absolutely destroy me every time it is one of the most Jack moments ever. MCPās narration especially delivers it so perfectly.
Highly requested comic from TFTGS Bedside Manor
The five four finger discount on other peopleās phones.
no one talks about how good jack townsend is at pick pocketing. thereās like five points where heās in a rough situation and he just goes āso i stole his wallet/phone while he was beating the shit out of me lolā and NO ONES NOTICED HIM YET
There isnāt enough Jackerry in the world and it breaks my heart.
GOD I love jackerry. been in a car for 10 hours thinking about jackerry smut the whole time. I love them so much. 10/10 Mr Townsend great characters.
Tftgs Spoilers:
I just started listening to book one again and I had a realization that when Jack is at one of his appointments with Dr. V and the Dr. starts talking about that if Jack offed himself no one would blame him just make sure you keep your brain in tact cause that's all they need after he's gone. It hit me that in book 4 Rodger makes the comment that they only need Jack's brain and just holy crap Roger has had so much influence over Jacks life and just every time I read or listen to the books again just more and more dots connect.
*fighting some fucked up creature*
jerry: oh shit that reminds me of when i went to Woodstock, shit was wild. i met with thi-
jack: Woodstock? jerry, that happened like 25 years before you were born.
jerry: yeah, Woodstock! anyways, i was talking to this guy, completely nude-
rosa: how did you go to Woodstock?! are you talking about some kind of anniversary for it?

rosa: oh my god.
jerry: continuing my story you guys just had to interrupt. i was talking to this dude, and he told me my beard doesnāt fit me. he said it clashed with my blue eyes and pubes, and iāve been thinking about it a lot recently. i donāt want to shave it, but now im feeling self conscious.
rosa: yourā¦ pubes?
jerry: i already said we were naked, get with the times rosa!
jack: your beard is fine, jerry. if anything it probably elevates your overall look. there.
rosa: yeah, i feel like itās very Jerry, you know? cant have jerry without his beard.
jerry: alright! thanks yāall, now back to the problem at hand. how do we banish a space god from this school bathroom?
