that soft “you” of ava towards bea though…

Omg, right! I was wondering if I was imagining how her voice changed, but I relistened and I don’t think I was. 

Here she is to Mary:

Okay, a normal amount of upset and concerned.

And like! Obviously you can’t hear it gentling in a gif, but it just seems a special little moment, the way Beatrice and Mary react. Just kind of…charged? I do believe that they did want to play Bea/Ava’s relationship as a bit special this season already, for a variety of reasons, if only so it’d be even more dramatic if Ava has to let Bea down easily, but who knows. 

Either way, Bea does mean something special to Ava, the way she reached for her to hug, the way she saved her instinctively from the shotgun, the way she listens to her and talks to her. She is the closest thing to a friend Ava has, whatever else happens.

Would you have any interest in gifing the final love scene between between Kat & Ava on the bold type finale? The whole up against the wall thing was fire and no one else has gif’d it and your gifs are the best ??‍♀️

Oh, I’m surprised nobody has. I feel like I did see some fans of the ship even with…everything.

Thank you for the kinds words but no, I don’t think I will. I’m starting to get to a place with f/f where either it has to mean something significant (like the “you weren’t doing anything wrong” moment I just did) or I really connect to the ship and this one’s kind of the opposite. Sorry, I’m sure someone else will.

I didn’t notice that Camila is the one that realized Melanie’s story. And she gave the book and look smiling at Ava and Beatrice

And another anon:

I thinks camila knows 

Yeah! I really liked that little moment from her and how much it conveyed, not only that people knew, but they didn’t all disapprove. And I do think she knew, it was too deliberate and specific to mean anything else. I don’t imagine they’d ever talked about it before, but she leapt at the chance to show Beatrice that not only was a previous halo-bearer a lesbian, the halo actually got more powerful when she accepted what she was.

I was the first anon to bring up JC=Jesus Christ but oh my god I do not want that baby storyline, so sorry to putting that type of energy out there lmao

And another anon:

Lol sorry, years of Catholic school have primed me to see how Catholicism operates and it’s very much w women as mothers or whores and not the heroes of the story. But to be fair this show seems more critical of Catholicism than bound to its premises. But yes, I don’t think a pregnancy storyline is likely. Far more likely that they bring back JC as a savior figure, which I still really don’t want but season 1 was enjoyable so I’ll hope next season stays focused on the women.

Haha, no worries, anons. Hopefully. We’ll know who to blame if it happens… =_=

But yeah, this show seems to be straddling an interesting line where it’s not really condemning religion in itself but is certainly ready to examine the individual humans who follow it. I hope it actually does allow the more devout sisters to keep their faith next season, even if there are huge upheavals along the way. But it definitely doesn’t seem to think that women should be sidelined for men, so hopefully we can count on that.
