Aw man, they killed Sharla (Christina Moses’s queer character) too? In addition to Melissa O’Neil’s character and Sharla’s girlfriend from the first ep and Iris after being tortured? 

Considering how much I liked this show and had high hopes for it even halfway through the season, it ended up disappointing me with some of the choices it made. Losing just Kathy could have been considered a bold, surprising choice (although the kiss made me roll my eyes) but adding all these other deaths on top? And tbh she was way more interesting than Joe. Yes, white people kept on dying too but how many were there overall and how many remained? They killed almost every WOC.

And personally, I love Christina Moses and MON so that just made it worse. 🙁 

What is it I should be watching this show for, exactly, if it’s just evil people getting away with evil things? Deep State ended up having a similar problem, too. Oh, the US government and rich white people are evil and they’ll get away with it but don’t worry, it’s realistic!

I think my fav thing abt lady Fitz and CW so far is the way everybody is *eyes emoji* at them? Quigley: “she intrigues you”, refers to Lady Fitz as Charlotte’s “muse”, Mrs May: “charlotte has an admirer” Fitz’s brother: “you seem so captivated by her” even Mr North is like “Charlotte…YOUR LADYSHIP is here”. anyways anyone who says they’re nothing more than convenient allies to each other can fight me

Oh, I love that about them! And in this ep when Charlotte has to go out and face Nancy and Will and is like, nooope, don’t even, she’s not a cull or my beloved, shut up mom and dad! 

And convenient allies? Convenient allies? They ARE allies, really good ones, Izzy was Charlotte’s immediate thought for helping Margaret in this ep, and they’re already at a level of honesty few of the other characters have reached, but there’s clearly something beyond that, even if it’s just friendship and comfort, because there’s also a level to their dynamic with no tangible gain.

I really love the timing of when their kiss finally happened, because neither stood to benefit from it, there was no scheme to actually ally on anymore. Charlotte’s plan with Lydia was over, and it gets lost in the wonderment of the “let me break his spell” line but there was nothing for Lady Fitz in telling Charlotte her secret either. It was a moment (a night) for both of them, no plans or schemes.

Do convenient allies do this??

Or look at each other like this?
