Throwing in my $.02.
I don't think Jett is a paranormal, the whole "kissing M without kissing M" thing was Monica's JG powers reading Georgettes extrodinarially strong emotions at the time. Jaguar Girl can sense a persons greatest fears, it would also stand to reason that she could also sense their greatest desires.
When Monica subjected Nudge to her greatest fear, Nudge had provoked her into lashing out. M's latenent JG power's kicked in and she poited Nudge into the place she feared most.
Monica was in a similar state of mind when she poited into Mucho Mocha. Her Jaguar Powers were keyed up and ready for a fight, and more importantly, looking for a target.
Yamara wrote:Love isn't answerable to scrutiny, but I am curious as to why Jet has such huge feelings for M. Their initial meeting was largely pally in aspect, and even her first brief needful return wasn't registered as romantic by Tina at the time.
It does suggest she didn't return this time to Mucho Mocha by accident, though. Losing her handlers like she was determined to succeed in making contact with M again, and keeping it known only to herself.
Careful what you pray for.
I think this was a case of Jett not really being aware of what she really wanted. She only knew she was missing something important in her life. The last time she wandered into Mucho Mocha, she was probably subconciously looking for M, or maybe even conciously, but she wasn't thinking, "I'm in love with." She was thinking more along the lines of, "I enjoyed hanging out with Monica, maybe I'll run into her and we can reconnect."
At that time, Georgette still felt fairly in control of her life, so she didn't set of Tina's Bulls**t detectors.
This time, Jett was putting up a front to hide the pain that had been building up for years, especially from herself.
Tina is a good person, and she wants to help, but she is still a collection of
demons, and as she has told her friends on numerous occasions, demons are wild animals that can sense weakness and key in on it. Georgette walked in, full of bluster, putting up a front, and the Predator in Tina reacted and started ripping away at the facade to get at what was underneath. When Jett didn't react to Tina's initial surface read, the Demon Barrista started digging deeper. She couldn't help herself. Tina was like a cat chasing a lazer pointer. Tina dug because she felt Jett was hiding something from her, and only after Georgette fell apart did Tina realise she was hiding it from herself as well.
(Tina has done this throughout the comic, usually when one of her freinds is trying to put up a front to hide a deeper pain that they really need to deal with.)
Georgette ended up with all her posturing and her self delusion stripped away, leaving her to face the reality of what she really felt, what she really needed, head on. Though Tina never touched her she's reacting
here to the emotional pain like a physical blow.
In poits M, receptive and keyed up with all her senses open and receptive, including her psychic abilities. Jett is still processing what she's learned about herself and the denial mechanism hasn't kicked in yet. M senses what Georgette wants, and they share a telepathic/empathic moment where Jett gets what her heart most desires. Then Monica realises what is happening and breaks it of.
It took several more moments for Jett to get past the
now and start denying again.
Which is where we are now.
As always, I could be wrong. Have been before, will be again, but I don't think Georgette is another paranormal.
