where can I watch In the Dark?? That gifset made me super giddy!!

It’s a CW show so you could probably actually watch it on their site as long as you can get a US IP:  https://www.cwtv.com/shows/in-the-dark/

I don’t know that I’d recommend watching just for them, because they’re not the main characters, the show itself is about a misanthropic blind girl, Murphy, whose friend gets murdered but nobody believes her. One of the wlw in the gifset is the Murphy’s roommate (and also colleague) so she appears a fair amount and her girlfriend is often at their apartment but you know, overall, it’s not a lot of screentime. Honestly, I like the rest of the show too, I’d have watched even without the f/f, but I just wanted to be clear on that.

why did Val ask Juliana if she enjoyed the sex with Sergio? was it because she had bad experience and didn’t feel anything and wanted to know if it was different for Juliana? or why would she ask such a question?

Oh, to me, there was some genuine curiosity in there in a petulant sort of way, like “oh, so was it worth it, huh, was it”, to needle Juls a bit and make her uncomfortable, but mostly? Raging jealousy. She wanted reassurance that Juls didn’t enjoy it.

And for a split second getting that confirmation did affect her.

Annnd then realized it wasn’t really making her feel better in the moment.

I said jealousy and petulance and yeah, those are negative traits but Val feeling them and even acting on them doesn’t make her a bad person. It just makes her a person. She was understandably upset, acted like an upset person, and then like the super kind person she actually is and not at one point in time, took herself out the conversation:

It’d have been forgivable if even that hadn’t happened, if she’d stewed for longer, not because Juls deserved it, but because Val was allowed it, but Val is Val.
