One thing I noticed in that elevator scene is that juls was so ready to fight the guy when he made that one comment I forget what he said exactly and val basically had to hold her back lol. She’s definitely fiesty, which I guess with everything she’s gone through makes sense. I want to see more of that juls.

She got mad when he pretended to be sympathetic about her mom’s “death” and asked how it happened, since she knew he was responsible. She’s so protective of her mom. Which, given she’s literally the only person Juls has, and perhaps has ever had, yeah, as you said, it makes sense. 

This thing with Val must be blowing her mind, especially who and what Val is. Oh, I did actually love her jumping in yesterday when Lucho attacked and then shouting at him to leave.

Loved that get outta here gesture.

But I dunno how much of confident/feisty Juls we’ll see again anytime soon. That move with Val re: the drinking kinda backfired. That’s probably the thing I hate most about the fight, what it’s going to do to Juls’s insecurities. Like yeah, she started off unsure but twice now, she’s said, hey, maybe we should take a break, and both times Val has very awesomely been like no way, this is the best thing in my life. But that last time, when bringing up the drinking and then throwing out wanting to leave…when has Val ever agreed about letting Juls go easily? Playfully and sometimes quite seriously, she constantly asks for Juls to stay, including that very morning. So I feel Juls is going to be on the back foot a bit now. 😡

Hi! Val is the youngest. When Montilla was asking questions about her father’s murder she told him she was the youngest and she didn’t had much of a say (in the family business and such), so if he wanted to know more about it and possible enemies her dad might have he should ask Eva. :)

Aaand also these asks:

I do think Val is the youngest. I don’t recall her ever saying “younger brother” (sumn like “más joven” would mean younger). “Ito/ita” means “dear/little” as a term of endearment, so I think she was just being cutesy and teasing him when she called him hermanito.

@the the carvajal siblings’ age discourse: Hermanito doesn’t translate explicitly to little brother. it’s a diminutive so it’s just s term of endearment

And

@stuckingay:

I confirm, Valentina is the youngest, she calls Guille “hermanito” as a pet name

A lot of responses for the inexplicably complicated younger brother discourse, lol. Thanks for all the clarification, guys, I think we are solid on this now, right? We learned some new things and to not necessarily take subs literally.

So Valentina is probably just plain gay, but do you think Juls is bisexual?

Hmm, I could see both of them being either. That convo where they were discussing their past sexual experiences was pretty enlightening and if we were to follow it to its logical conclusion, Val never caring much for the sex she had with her boyfriends and Juls never being interested enough in anyone at all until Val, it’d probably be gay for both of them. 

Buuut, I think that might be more…you know in these beginner stories, they kind of don’t even acknowledge bi as a thing? The writers could be working from that mindset. OR, also pretty typical, to sell the whole soulmate aspect, they weren’t particularly interested in anyone until they met each other. The show’s brought up the whole “are we gay?” and “with a woman?” thing enough that it is still about a sexual identity, even if both are ever only truly in love with each other on screen.

ugh lucho really is the worst!! also they fought and im sad :(

He is and same!

The rational part of me is like, okay, this is actually a serious issue, one that existed before they even met, and it’s amazing they’re going to tackle it and not pretend like love fixes addiction/super unhealthy coping mechanisms, but the other part of me is like, this is like seeing my parents fight, I don’t like it at all. Still, it’s far too low key an issue to break them up and it’s encouraging that Juls felt comfortable enough to bring it up. They’re hardly going to leave it as, oh, well, I love alcohol too much so bye, Juls.
