have you seen the scenes from todays episode? i dont understand spanish but it obviously didnt go well with eva. why couldnt guille stay with val during the talk as support??

Because drama. He should have been there, there was no reason for him not to be. But man, it turned out to be a good scene without him, right? Damn. 

As much as I hated watching it, there’s something pretty awesome to watch basically two of the very main characters going at it and about this topic. It was just nice to see some of Eva’s screentime, which is usually taken up by Alacran and the company, be shifted aside to here, and like, in a natural way, of course Val is a major priority of hers. Ah, obviously I hope it won’t go on for too long but we’re getting the very tropey forbidden rootable love story but with two women. 😀

Omg fuck Eva, she is suuuuch a controlling asshole. She cares more about the family’s appearances than her sister’s happiness. Obvs fuck Lucho too, he’s been a dick from the start. I will say tho that I was nervous about today’s ep but it went better than I expected. There was no violence, which I hope continues. I do wish they’d had Juls and Val talk more about the outing. Juls’ response wasn’t quite what I would’ve wanted to see.

Hmm, how so? Val’s biggest issue is her unwillingness to deal with things. She chooses to hide, whether it’s in alcohol and drugs or pretending everything’s fine between Lucia and Eva or wanting to run away. She’s gotta deal with things.

I did like that despite the awkwardness at the start, they (Val) did calm down enough to acknowledge what’s really bothering her. Man, kid is messed up. Yeah, you’re probably right, Juls is right in that they can’t just run away–well, they kind of literally can, she’s an heiress and Lupe wants to leave too, but it’s more that running away from problems is a hard habit to break. BUT, despite her being right, she could have offered some more support and really, Val should come out on her own terms, especially when Juls was the one saying to hide it from people even though Val did immediately tell Guille.

I understand both of them, Juls isn’t really maybe feeling in a place where she can offer much input on Val’s life and family and of course Val is super scared. I’m just glad they were able to make up that small amount.

God, one thing LGBT stories everywhere–whether they’re from countries new to them or…a bit less new–need to learn to do is treat outing like the horrible thing it is. It isn’t some sharing of a juicy secret.

Cheating is bad, everyone knows that. A lot of people don’t seem to get that outing is terrible! Shows will still do it for the drama, fine, but condemn it within the narrative.

How did this happen?! How did the scene get released?!? Omg I’m stunned

I think everyone is! How often have f/f fans (or fans of any marginalized character) tweeted for something and actually gotten it? Just like that. No caveats, no demands. 

I was saying to a friend, it’s so small in the scheme of things, but we never get listened to! Often, networks seem to go out of their way to be horrible. 

Though, do they know what they’ve unleashed? Lol. This and every other fandom’s gonna tweet long and hard for every little thing. Well, perhaps they don’t mind that either.
