I think everyone else is taking it to mean in regards to the happy Juliantina part. I do get what you’re saying but I think her intonation was kind of jokingly negative.
Omg can our girls have one week of no heartache or kidnappings. I wonder if it will happen after she’s with Sergio and if Val will find out and help her to save her. Or will this finally show Eva is sleeping with alacran
I’m pretty sure this is kind of what Maca meant, lol. This is how it’ll probably be until the end of the show, it’s only going to speed up. Beltran is going to be told, going to apparently react badly, who knows what drama will happen with Sergio, and then kidnapping.
If Mateo and Eva did Val or Guille will have to raise her baby bc even if it’s Alacron’s he won’t raise it Omg imagine a Juliantina baby!!!!!!!!!
They’re babies themselves! I’ll imagine one in like, 10 years. But after that, maaaybe. It could be cute, it could be cute. Okay, fine, it could be very cute. Their pampered, stylish baby with an affinity for pools and parks.
If Eva dies, it’d be within a few days in telenovela time so no baby.
My gut says eva dies…. ?
I won’t allow that.
I think…I don’t know. Maybe, to save somebody else? But who? Val? Mateo? She feels like somebody who’ll have to live with the consequences of her actions. Be shunned by her siblings, raise the baby, especially if turns out it’s Mateo’s.
I don’t know. I would think all of his kids being happy and safe would be part of Leon’s second chance, but he’s spent very little time with her and she’s taken no steps toward a happier life. Guille and Val have their clear endgames but Eva? I don’t know. Could be, anon.
And another anon:
How do you pronounce Juliantina? (Not Spanish speaking, trying to get it right because I live for them) thanks!
How you’d think, except the J is with an H sound. Maca says it a bunch of times here:
And another anon:
Juliantina. lol first ship I’m not mad or ranting about the writers.
Hold onto that thought, buddy. 😛
Sorry to tell you but Mateo committed telenovela suicide today: the unwritten rule of never threatening the main villain and disclosing him your plans. AAM writers would really, really surprised me if he actually survives the show.
Yeah, I don’t feel like my guy is long for the world now. Too naive by half. That’s the problem with him and Susana, they think they see how bad people are but they’re still too good-hearted to believe HOW bad they are. Drinking something Johnny gave you?? Going to him and telling him your plans? What kind of…
It’s actually kind of interesting that if you go along with the theory that in telenovelas, good people get good endings, and bad people bad, then those two should survive. But they’re not main enough, they’re going to be collateral damage. The only two characters left, defined by their goodness, are Juliantina. Guille had his part in the holdup and Renata is…is she really even on the show aside from being Guille’s love interest? And her character’s not had to be in the same position of making decisions like Juliantina, she doesn’t get to show her kindness and integrity in the same way. So at this point, those two need a happy ending just to make sure this telenovela isn’t depressing as heck.
God that outfit Valentina chooses for juls after their first time was also a top 5
It almost made it, I’d clipped it and made a gif and everything.
But then I was like, do I love the outfit or do I love the attitude? In the interests of being fair and unbiased, I had to leave it out.
Okay but Juls outfit after Guilles party (besides the coat) do you think it’s hers or borrowed from Val???
Damn, I left it off my list of top five Juls outfits and it totally belonged there!
I think it’d have to be borrowed, she didn’t expect to stay the night and didn’t bring a change of clothes. Lol, how subtle, picking an outfit for Val to see and it’d be this one.
im sorry,,,, u are always being asked questions,,,, but who is perlita
Oh, no problem, anon. She’s the older woman who hired Lupita and she was there along with Panchito (and of course Val) to try to calm Juls when they found out about the kidnapping. Juls even went to her to ask about a loan or a job when she thought she had the medical bills to pay.
Most recently, she’s the one who took Juls in after she left Lupe.
I love that this is a novela and the formula is good guys end good, that’s the standard, I’ll always be grateful for them making a wlw relationship when it could have been pretty easy to go with an het couple
You know, I think this might legit be one of the reasons behind why Juliantina is so good.
Telenovelas lean into romance and so-called cheesiness and straightforward stories in a way a lot of other media thinks it’s too good for. English-language media’s so cynical and seems to hate for people to be happy and left satisfied. Combine that with some weird obsession with needing to be shocking and unpredictable and you get TV that’s hard to watch as a character-lover.
That doesn’t mean that all telenovelas–or indeed, all makers of this kind of media, so Bollywood, kdramas–will automatically do well by their LGBT characters or relationships, there’s still so many other biases to get over, but once they include them, there’s hopefully not the same need to include a stray bullet twist where the victim is all too obvious.
