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.
