Look I think we can all agree that Lucho dying was actually nuts. But we’re talking about the Universe here. I try and think of it as a whole. People be switchin bodies to make soulmates happen. Lucho was being a tool, causing unnecessary heartbreak, and violent. Who knows on one hand. He could have gone on to be a horrible person. For the girls but can you imagine him being with someone else and not treating her like Valentina? Lucho is still Lucho. The Universe does what it does ya’ll.

I mean…he was good in this last ep, and in his final moments, but he’s mostly been deeply horrible. A twist of a writer’s pen doesn’t make everything about him good. He was whatever he needed to be for the plot, just something to push everything along.

And other anons:

PLOT TWIST: the straight ex boyfriend dies for dramatic effect. ….. AAM said f*ck you to all the tropes, THIS is how you get it done.

Can you believe a show killed their prince charming look alike to save the lesbians?

This is actually the funny part, because he was written like how f/f characters usually are, with no other story or background beyond their interaction with one person. And that’s why we’re often so disposable to the story, because those characters offer nothing beyond that. AAM made their f/f characters so important they could literally be the reason behind the premise of the whole thing.

And other anons:

Going through last nights post it’s pretty much with the gays not knowing how to react/deal with Lucho being shot. We’re used to that type of character in between our wlw ships and we always wants them to go away but it never really happens until AAM. I get some didn’t quite grasp the way he dead but it’s a telenovela and they are all about DRAMATICS. This is how they treat their otp, we’ve actually had it not as bad as far as novelas goes even though it may feel like the angst are endless.

See what happens when the fandom says they wish lucho would just die and they actually end up shooting him very abruptly and now everyone is in shock also he didn’t even have a dying scene or a closing statement like he died really quick

Yeah, it was quick and super surprising and sad in the moment. Immediately jumping to protect the women.

But I think while there was some shock people came to terms with it pretty quickly, remembering most Lucho the rest of the time and what kind of show it is. And I would dare say that there might be some other wishing going on too.

Thoughts of lucho’s sacrifice?

I hated the guy but damn, he really was holding his arms out to protect Lupe and Val and put himself at the front to face the gun. He was a violent creep but I guess there’s hope for redemption for anyone.

I don’t get why people are saying she murdered his ego. what does it have to do with him what she got what she wanted?

The way Lucho approached that conversation was him saying that until Juls took advantage of Val, Val was fine and happy with Lucho. That if it hadn’t been for Juls interfering, Val would be in love with and satisfied with Lucho. 

Val was basically saying, nope, it wasn’t her pursuing me and taking me from you, I went after her, implying how little she felt for Lucho.

sadly we’ve seen shitty ex-boyfriends do this before in other shows and even if it doesn’t in a breakup they usually cause pain to the main wlw ship

Yeah, for sure, but that’s their purpose, right. I mean, the alternative is a terrible baby plot or even death, apparently. 

Sorry, I’m not over my Kana anger. But uh. Yeah, he’s a garbage human, we can only hope the writers will take it easy on us and minimize the overall effect. I’m mostly afraid of violence, he’s so threatening on screen.
