Don’t think I’ve seen any discussion on the fact that Lilith’s name might be a reference to the first woman? That’s as far as my knowledge goes because tbh most of it is just from watching CAOS ahahaha so sending this to you in hopes of more speculation from people who don’t base their religious knowledge off teen Netflix shows

Ooh, yeah, I’ve seen a few mentions of it but not much speculation. Crowdsourcing might be best, aside from your teen Netflix show expertise, I know nothing about this either. 

I will say, though, that when that was brought up in an interview with Simon Barry, and I think it was the VIFF one, he didn’t seem to really indicate they were building up to something significant with the name. He was just like, oh, we took the name from the comic character and her origin story there was that she was half-demon already, which is what we’re seeing our Lilith kind of become, gaining these powers and even the silver hair. He already seemed to be looking ahead and at a different story. So I don’t know if it’ll go back deeper than that, it might just be religious names scattered throughout. But who knows, maybe he was just disassembling, or maybe that person asking the question is what now made him think about how to use that. I don’t even know who Lilith really was, how she could be referenced, so maybe there’s something I haven’t even thought of.

Re: people’s concerns about JC coming back in S2 and playing the Jesus role I think he’s really already had that arc and fulfilled his narrative purpose and won’t come back. He literally saved Ava from drowning, gave her shelter, and food. Figuratively he saved Ava because it was due to her feelings for him that she made her first selfless act and tried to protect him from the tarrosk. It’s also why we no longer get voiceover after that point it’s no longer about her and what she feels and wants

Hmm, those are all pretty fair points and really, it could very well go like that even if it hadn’t been originally planned, considering who audience feedback. But, we know how reluctant TPTB are to listen to feedback they consider as niche as this, and I also don’t know if they’re really willing to just have no young good-looking guys in a full season. Or good guys in general, since obviously Vincent can’t be trusted.

Plus, the voice over stopped because they just realized they didn’t need it as a narrative device, according to Simon Barry, so it didn’t really have any deeper meaning than that. I can see it both ways, really, that some writer will be like, it’d be weird to not bring back a character so integral to Ava’s effective reintroduction to the world while other writers will agree that his purpose has been fulfilled.

Has you seen how supportive are Kristina and Alba about the internet?

I was a bit puzzled at the wording of this and assumed you meant of the internet fandom in general, which has been quite lovely to see, and then saw Alba had posted this:

with the caption “Okay Internet, I hear you. ?” Lol, at first when I was scrolling I was like, what romantic other indie project is she posting this from and then looked closer.
