haaa i hinted at me being gay to my mom but backtracked as “straight” and got a version of what lupe said hours before the episode aired so i couldnt help but cry because they defended themselves
I’m sorry, bud. You can’t see my sympathetic face scrunch, but it’s there.
I don’t really know what to say, homophobic parents, there’s no guarantee they’ll come around even if fiction ones like Lupe do. Maybe that’s gonna have to be catharsis enough.
it looks like Val took a second to understand exactly that Lupe was there. Like, it seems like she was ready to go on w/ the kissing ™ until she finally realized the situation
Oh damn, you’re right. I was already wincing in anticipation of Lupe’s reaction and didn’t see it, but she literally follows her for a bit before catching on.
The level of direction and acting here when 99 times out of 100 you’d have that actor already bracing to be interrupted…
That Lupe scene, I’m not even mad, just really really sad. Cuz that’s probably how my parents will react if I ever come out.
I really get that, anon. But at least in this case, Lupe will come around, I think she definitely will. And that’s always a possibility with your parents, plus, simply seeing this on screen play out will affect so many parents like yours. That’s gotta be something.
People! Val actually consumed food!!! Jul’s influence is all powerful. All hail our mighty gay princess charming
Awww, that’s right. The mood between her…earlier that morning? vs with Juls now is so different. All shot in gray, literally unable to eat or leave the house, now chatting and eating and flirting. Stupid Lupe ruining her day.
You know I could hear my own mother’s words out from Lupe’s mouth. Latin America still is pretty religious and conservative overall and when they show this kind of scene in the most popular PUBLIC channel of Mexico that’s what makes a difference. I was watching the telenovela with my mom today and I saw tears in her eyes and for the first time since i came out months ago she actually looked at me and she held my hand. I’m still trying to understand this but juliantina literally are everything.
Oh, anon. It does, this stuff truly does make a difference. I’m so happy for you :’). And i’m really grateful, again and again, for the treatment these two have gotten.
