the thing is i very much understand the appeal of lupcretia narratively bc they are foils who betray each other and then forgive each other because the force of their grief and guilt brings them to an understanding and i also understand the appeal of blupcretia bc its a three person relationship who disagree on something major and split apart leaving one party feeling abandoned when the other two agree against her and what does that mean for the fact that the rest of their lives outside a horrible timeloop are supposed to start soon Because of that decision and disagreement like i get it narratively its interesting!! but here’s the thing: i just have an unshakeable belief that lup is straight

#+ w/ regard to blupcretia the appeal of that one depends on the Assumption that romantic relationships are prioritized #yk what i mean?#like its only really interesting if you assume they’re intending to also be life partners/prioritized in each others life #thats why the creeping feeling of betrayal in lucretia is interesting at all #bc she’s assuming the three of them are a Unit #like thats why its more interesting romantically than platonically (still very very interesting platonically)#but i really don’t think romantic relationships Are always prioritized and i especially don’t think LUP of all people does so #the most important person in her life is taako and he’s just chilling in this scenario LMAO #he has no skin in the game so even if youre like yeah lup DOES prioritize him over both her romantic partners it doesnt… add any depth #and taako and lucretia have their own extremely complex & interesting dynamic and that doesnt benefit from lucretia being w/ lup either #like i tend to think taako and lucretia were already pretty close w/out lupcretia being a thing so that doesnt lend any more complexity #+ all that's not even to mention that i dont think lup or barry as characters really have romantic chemistry w/ lucretia #like i cant imagine her being part of their relationship in any meaningful way #that and i just really do think lup is straight #taz #mine
