forever salty about the fact that we never got a satisfactory conclusion to glimmer's and adora's conflict. of course i wanted them to reconcile and apologize to each other. but the way s5 did it was so.. unnatural. it's like the writers themselved forgot what the conflict was about.
glimmer wasn't the only one at fault. of course, she was the one who took things a bit too far but still, both of them were equally stubborn in s4. both of them were taking their frustration out on each other and creating misunderstandings and complications.
glimmer saying that adora was "right about everything" and adora just being like "dw we're cool now"... it was so anticlimatic. their conflict was a LOT more nuanced than just "glimmer hurting adora". we deserved a more in-depth conversation between those two where they BOTH apologize and explain their parts of the story.
not to mention, how come bow was allowed to stay mad at glimmer for longer? i'm not saying that he shouldn't have been mad at her, like of course glimmer was kinda mean to him in s4 too, but her conflict with adora was much more personal. she was being manipulated by adora's abuser and also, in a fit of grief and frustration, held adora responsible for her mother's death. if the writers were holding only glimmer accountable for her actions, which they were, shouldn't adora be the one whose forgiveness glimmer would have to earn? how come a five second apology is enough for adora but bow was somehow more hurt by glimmer's actions although none of them were targeted at him personally? it just felt off to me.
