Ahh I think you misunderstood my ask about Juls being 18. I was seeing a ton of people on twitter/tumblr wonder why Juls just left Val’s house and was screening her calls/texts and then deciding to go eat with Sergio had them annoyed with her. I just meant that when you’re 18 you aren’t the most mature about things and sometimes you just wanna stew in your feelings and I wanted people to give her a break on that. As for Sergio, I didn’t read that as a date at all.

Oh, I got it, and agree, it’s just, I don’t even think it’s necessary as a justification for what was not really very egregious behavior.

And another anon:

Do you think what Lupita said about her not being with a guy is going to push her into kissing sergio? It would make for juicy drama and angst, but also solidify the fact that yea, juls is in fact only attracted to women

Do I think it’d be in character for the Juls we’ve seen, who’s gone toe to toe with Lupe over this four times now and shut it down again and again? Not particularly. Do I rule it out of a TV show built on drama? Also, no. 

And another anon:

Hey there. I’m seeing some people saying Juls is gonna sleep with Sergio and I’m scared. You seem like a voice of reason, what do you think?

Well, see the answer above. I don’t really think I can offer you the comfort or reassurance you’re looking for. I don’t think it’ll happen and I really don’t think it should happen, not within the story they’ve been telling, where her mom incorrectly tells her she should do this but, you know. I don’t rule anything out. 

I would say to try to not let it affect you too much either way. I understand the place media has in a lot of our lives as one of our only outlets but if it happens, IF, it won’t be out of malice, it’s written for drama and what would be a misguided attempt to “teach” something. I don’t really think it will happen, though. It’s still going to be day time, the same day as today, when she gets kidnapped. That’s a lot to pack in, for her to react badly to it.

And another anon:

ok but juli lowkey calling lupe out for her crappy parental decisions! I’m living for it!! i want my girl to have some closure, can she just sit beltran and lupe down and yell at them. our girl deserves some apologies

God, she does. If there’s any justice, that’s one of the things the ending will deliver. 

On the one hand, it was great seeing her letting Lupe know how much she hated their family situation, but on the other hand, ouch, to hate it that much and to be able to acknowledge and put it out there, making it real. She’s got nothing right now, no family, no Val, no support in anything. If this had the resolution it deserved, along with Juliantina, there would also be Lupe apologizing for focusing on Chino to the detriment of Juls, but we’ll see.
