Just a few musings - I know you’ve mentioned the headcanon (supported by Tony Dalton himself) that Lalo was expected to be the educated Salamanca and went to university in the States, but how do you think he felt about it? While he’s clearly a very intelligent man he doesn’t strike me as the conventionally academic sort and I can see him spending all his college years socialises at the expense of his studies. I especially like the idea that as part of his well rounded education he was expected to learn multiple languages but with the exception of English (since as you mentioned his mum might have been American) he never picked up one. But he probably still breaks into nonsense French or Latin any time he wants to sound smart.

You can definitely argue that - this is one of those issues that's really on the outside of canon because we don't know enough about Lalo to know how he would feel about school. It's possible he didn't take it seriously - I mean, he doesn't seem to take anything that seriously, not even getting shot in the throat. I hadn't considered the idea that he was chosen by the family to be the one who got an education, which I really like - there's a lot of potential there.

But my highly personal head canon (to be taken with a grain of salt!) is that he did well in school. I also think he wanted to go and went to school in spite of the Salamancas. Salamancas don't seem big on strategy - it's all brute force with them, "Salamanca muscle." I'm not sure if they'd value a college education, particularly since it would involve Lalo being away for several years when he could be learning the drug trade. (But again, I could definitely be talked into the idea that the family realized that by some miracle, they somehow got a Smart kid, and decided to make the most of it by sending him to get some book learnin'.)

So I think he wanted to go, either for himself or to please his gringa mother who wanted him to have some connection with the US. And maybe it was a mildly rebellious thing for him to do - like, if you're from a family of criminals, doing something respectable is the way you'd thumb your nose at your family.

As for partying, while Lalo doesn't shy away from it, he really seems happiest when he has something to puzzle over. He's charming at Eladio's party, but that's wheeling and dealing more than him enjoying himself. He plays poker with his underlings, but that seemed more like a way to get to know who he was working with (like how he christens Ocho Loco - it was more interesting for him to learn about the kind of guy Domingo was than it was for him to win). He also loves to drive fast cars, like when he has Nacho take him to the track, but I get the sense that the real fun for him is tinkering around with the engine, which is more about fixing a problem than an adrenaline rush.

The moments he really seems to be enjoying himself, to me, are when he's doing his detective work. Look at the whole "Werner Ziiiieegler" scene in 5x01 - his whole "what's he up to, man? What's he doing?" doesn't seem frustrated to me - he's got a big smile on his face, excited the game is afoot. This doesn't necessarily mean that he'd like school, but to me it shows that he's more of a brainy guy than a party boy like Tuco.

I've said before that I think of him as a Classics major, because I think he would identify with the larger-than-life figures and bloody history, but also the philosophy. Because I think philosophy would also be a good major for him (and uh, it's actually going to come up later in my current Lacho WIP 👀). I like this idea because you can work Tony's yin-yang tattoo into Lalo's character if he has an interest in philosophical traditions. (I think I'll make a separate post about Lalo and philosophy because this is already so long, as usual lol)

Week 2: Tattoos, Rooftops and Porto!

This week has been quite hectic! I finally feel like I am getting into the groove of classes and it is honestly nice to have a routine. All of my professors are super nice and helpful, and I don’t anticipate either class being too overwhelming. One of my friends is visiting Madrid for the week, so I have spent a lot of time hanging out with her along with the other students in my program. Highlights of this week have been:

Going with my friend to get her first tattoo! Along with getting a new ear piercing of my own (fyi - piercings are super cheap in Madrid…). She got the Salamanca frog which is representative of good luck!

Rooftop bars! So many great places to overlook the city and have a drink (mocktails of course). Also, one of my friends cooked all of us dinner in one of the residencias before going out which was super fun.

And my top highlight of the week was taking a weekend trip to Porto, Portugal! This city was absolutely so beautiful and would definitely recommend anyone in Europe to visit. I had a ton of super good seafood, including octopus, sushi and shrimp tacos! We spent Friday morning through Sunday morning in the city, our flights costing around 80 euros. We stayed in Porto Wine Hostel right in the center of town which was around 40 euros a night and super nice. Everyone in the Hostel was very social and we made a good few friends! 

Porto is a super cute old city, with roads made of stone and tons of colorful architecture and pretty tiles. We spent most of Friday sightseeing — grabbing food, shopping around town, walking the famous bridge, seeing all the classic Porto spots and even taking a cable car up for a fun view of the city. On Saturday we got brunch at the famous pancake restaurant (they were so good), went to the beach and watched the sunset while having a picnic in the Morro Garden. Porto for the weekend was a super nice getaway and I enjoyed the slower pace of the town for a couple days.
