#I have more faith in this then say juliantina

[coldzonkprofessorturtle]

This was definitely not the announcement I was expecting from the Warrior Nun saved countdown. I thought maybe one movie but three sounds incredibly ambitious. Listen, I very much want to be excited about this but I would caution everyone to just be very aware that the industry is in an incredibly tumultuous period. The strikes probably won’t end before the year is up and I don’t know what that means for the production/story/casting of these features. By all means this is huge but also it’s important to stay pragmatic. Celebrate the win but until more is confirmed I’m still hesitant as to what this actually will mean.

Episode 83: A Really Reconstructive Recap

Crops have been watered

Skin has been cleared

Faith is restored

Juliantina is a Thing

(Did I just ACCIDENTALLY write a poem? lol.)

Due to some unexpected and Inconvenient AF Food Poisoning (that I'm really HOPING stays on the Moderate to MILD side of things lol) I hadn't been able to post the recap(s), I'm doing a bit better now so time to get back to business.

Also I just discovered the episode guide I was using for reference is SHIT? lol, and that apparently my recaps are actually one number behind the actual ep (Recap 79 is actually for Ep 80 for example) I'll get to manually fix the previous ones, but these last few will be properly numbered, just letting you know in case you've reblogged any of my previous madness, with that said...

EDIT: Actually I went back and checked and the episode is listed as 83 by the twitter account that posts the Juliantina Story so at this point I’ll just stick to it? SO basically ignore the changing episode number thing.

Let's get to it:

______________________________________________________________________

Too little too late Chino! as much as I'm on board with his redemption arc, his toxic AF ways should not be easily forgiven nor forgotten, I think the best is for him to go his own way and leave Panchito, Lupe and Juls do their own thing.

Its SO nice to see Lupe and Juliana so carefree and relaxed for a change, and Lupe having Sexy-Chino-Filled dreams? NOW it makes sense why she was willing to chase him down across the world LOL. Also poor Panchito? Maybe some Hitman Roleplay will help him give a more memorable performance next time XD.

O M F G ...This scene was one of the most RIDICULOUSLY HILARIOUS things I've watched in a while, Sergio's "Rest In.......Peace??" got me dyingggg lol. Even Barbara recognised Lucho's Fuckboi Aura XD. I think its nice He got a chance to say goodbye and Val got a proper chance to THANK YOU, NEXT him so now she'll be able to finally move forward.

She wasted NO time before asking about her Dad...And Lady Death wasted NO time herself and showed the fuck up. Is it weird for me to think she's actually NOT a threat to Val? I think by now its been roughly established Lady Death chose Beltran and Jacobo specifically due to the fact Juliana and Valentina are actual soulmates and were bound to meet somehow? Which ...I mean...LEGENDS ONLY.

Barbara also dropped another MAJOR revelation: Leon is alive! If only someone with ALL the info including Leon's new identity would just show up and help clear things out...

Oh HI THERE BELTRAN!!  

I'm about to unleash some galaxy-brain level shit so get ready lol...

FUN FACT: Maca & Arturo (Beltran) played a MARRIED Couple on a Show called "La Bella Y las Bestias"? I have NOT watched it but apparently he killed her parents but she doesn't know it and still marries him which...LOL?...and people think Amar A Muerte is wild ...Gurllllll XD.

Anyway ...back to the EP, ALL the pieces are coming together FINALLY! this Finale is gonna be CRAZY and I can't wait. Luckily Val knew nothing so Chino won't be able to find Juls and Lupe that easily, as I said before, at this point I think the Valdes family is better off going their separate ways. Also Val calling him "The Electrocuted One"? I CAN'T XD.....SO MANY GOOD LINES on this episode.

I guess you guys were right when you said someone was gonna transmigrate into Sergio's body, turns out it was THE FANDOM itself lol: From reminding Val of the magical power of phone calls to actually taking her to Juls, the dude DELIVERED.

Also being thirsty AF about Juliana is a thing most of the fandom has in common anyway?......so yeah XD.

I love how that fuckin' Costa Rica plot line has turned into a running joke even within the actual show lol. Val was SO SCARED they had actually gone there for a moment....#SAME Gurl, SAME.

In a world of instant gratification and endless binge watching you gotta give some  respect to Telenovelas' actual formula of giving you almost daily content while STILL being able to drag that angsty shit down just enough and THEN giving the audience some epic OTP worthy payoff.

Its a formula this Novela has DOWN TO A T, That reunion was PERFECT, they got my usually-stoic-and-chill ass smiling like a fuckin' idiot trough the whole thing and you know what? ...I ain't even mad  about it lol. 

Also Lupe signalling her support for them on EVERY CHANCE she gets and being super extra nice to Val? Suegra Of The Year.  

Now would you kindly open your CHEMISTRY textbooks on page 49, so I can better illustrate this next scene...

Once again, huge shoutout to the casting director/anyone who had ANY say in casting Maca & Barbs on these two roles, listen, there can be SO MUCH on the page, the director can do an excellent job on sharing the vision and the emotional intensity of a scene, but a level of natural BELIEVABLE interaction such as this comes only when the actors have actual SYNERGY and COMRADERY at a very high level (and THAT's what jumps out of the screen) it only happens when you put the right people together, and HOLY CRAP they have DONE IT here, Flawless Casting 101.

*Reads Maca's Tweet where she says the "No me provoques" line was NOT on the script and that it came out naturally?* 

POINT PROVEN.

Daddy Leon/Jacobo is IN THA HOUSEEEE and shit is about to get REAL! Can't wait to see how Val is gonna react, and for Eva to finally get what she deserves.

Oh shit...Only 3 EPs left...

Let's hope I won't transmigrate into a tennis ball or a grumpy parrot before the finale? Fingers Crossed XD.

Not feeling the "The show is OVER" Blues yet, but this Monday is gonna be interesting for sure...

K, Thanks,Bye.

for the femslash meme -- 3, 15?

Thank you!

3- Older femslash ship

Well, I always go back to Faith and Buffy honestly. It really was... formative in so many ways. Complicated relationship with a ridiculous amount of sexual/romantic tension and trauma between two girls who shouldn’t even EXIST together and yet share the same burden? Strangers to tentative friends to something more to enemies to allies to friends again? God. The entirety of season 3... was gay... Anyway I’ll love them forever, and tbh I still like to think that after everything happened and they settled down a little they found their way back to each other. 

15- A femslash pairing I like without even being in the fandom

I’m tempted to say Juliantina because I have watched like... one scene... but I have seen these two gals all over my dash and they seem so cute and sweet and angsty I love them... but I’ll probably end up watching the show/their scenes tbh. 

I also like... really love karolina x nico from runaways in theory but. i can’t get into the show at all. so i just support them from afar! you’re doing great bbs! maybe i’ll read the comics.
