protective!bea is so hot ugh
not at her Instantly going for vincent's throat
EUROTRASH JESUS— michael u legend bahahah
ava rising from her crown!coma in the back like she’s been possessed ahahhahahshs
the softness!! in avatrice's little exchange "are you alright?" "fine"
i have a pit in my stomach did you see/hear ava THIS GIRL has just accepted the inevitability and necessity of her self-sacrifice HASN'T SHE 😡😭
nooooo ava + michael my noble selfless babies :(((
hehe bea and superion ava protection squad <3
awwwweee my feels are soft and easily hurt all those goodbye moments :(((((((((((
AVA WRITING A FAREWELL LETTER TO BEA MY HEART- 😭😭
“sometimes the simple truth of being alive just…moves me” she has grown up So Much i'm so proud oh ava dearest 🥺
and superion :(( she doesn't really know but she Knows and she accepts what must happen much as it tears her apart
grumpy bea hahah i still don’t like that look on her
“you’re still a nun aren’t you? forgiveness is part of your job” -> ava sowing more seeds in bea's crisis of faith :")
michael to jillian: “i’ll see you again” um. ru sure sir
first that talking heads quote (she only learns from cam the best), and now “don’t fuck it up” YES QUEENNNNNNN SUPERION
oh lemme take a moment to say i LOVE the brutalist concrete set design this season !!!!!!! *kisses for the crew again*
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA michael cocking his eyebrow at the fbc guard when vincent calls them adriel's virgins 💀
"that is not in any way how that works" lmaoooo
also the LITTLE SMILE on her face as she says it bea is SO. WHIPPED adsghakldfk
they’re so stupiddddddddd ocs girlies why would u have ur reunion in the open whyyyyyyy
"sister warriors don’t run" have i mentioned i love yasmine
“wow she’s incredible” “yes she is” THE SMILE ON HER FACE DID I MENTION BEA'S WHIPPED
YES cam reunited with her crossbow <3
yessss avatrice combo attack fave move!
no i don’t like the distrust between them :(((((((((((
the cross reflecting in avas eyes :((( oh no :(((
wait i can't help but to imagine yasmine might've had that one moment of doubt of what if ava turned on them
let it be known that this was actually such a beautiful moment, like much as the gifsets are gorgeous they do not do the magic of this scene any justice,, my heart is so full l;khsl;js;lhjssfd
"Because things change when you realise not everything's about you" bea's words laid down right back at her feet ow my heart hurts
did my eyes start watering when the music started? obvs.
"They die so everyone else can live"
"I’m doing this so you can live your life. So live it, okay?"
"I won’t. I can’t." (what is my life without you?)
and you can see the infinite fondness in ava's eyes, you can see that she plans to kiss bea already when she steps forward
and she disarms her! (because of course bea had to make a last ditch effort to save ava from herself, and of course ava's grown enough to match her in combat)
and she kisses her !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and of course it’s oh so tender
[Hymn for Her] has me in a CHOKEHOLD
the way the camera spins and the chorus swells like a revelation, like they've finally found home in each other 💖
bea's hand reaches out first and of course it's the Patented Avatrice ✨Face Caress✨
THE FOREHEAD KISS AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
ava's teary smile, and bea returning it with a hint of a smile and a nod
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOJDGDJDKSKAHSH
this music im cryign again 😭😭
we all agree we aren't normal about this scene right?????
bea is shell shocked, and ava’s heartbroken, but they both dutifully carry on in that deathly silence (*kisses for the sound designer*)
“we have no choice.” “we have a million choices…we’re both living on second chances anyway” 😭😭😭😭😭😭
there’s that parallel between ava and michael again (i love the two of them),
and there’s that great inevitable tragedy of all our heroes carrying a sacrifice they don’t deserve to be burdened with
i’m waxing poetic this episode and nobody can stop me
but the plot chugs ever onward so-
“semantics, huh? That’s what we’re betting our lives on?” “we’re betting our lives on faith.” “huh, even worse.” SPITTING FACTS atheist agenda ftw
ADRIEL A-POSING HAHAHA he looks so fucking awkward standing with his legs apart like that ajhahdhdjaha
ooooh an uneven cross window this setpiece is fantastic
MICHAEL HIS HEART?????????
holyyyyyyyy shittttttttttttttttt
THATS IT? HESDEAD? JUST LIKE THAT
grudging respect to the writers for having the balls to put in such a cruel end
i still can’t tear my thoughts away buT
BEA HALLWAY FIGHT MY BELOVED
OH the waver in her voice 🥺 when
“you all stand between me and ava.” NO MORE PRETENCE this is HER girl in DANGER she’s gotta save her !!!!
“stay… and you’ll never walk again.” BRUTAL. LOVING this look on bea
wow wow wow ave maria melting into that 2WEI arrangement is gorgeoussssssssssssssss
that deep resonant bass hits SO good
btw i’m so proud of myself for instantly recognising a signature 2wei song without checking they really are the kings of epic soundtracks
YES BEA KICK ASSSSSSSSS you are a work of ART
a l s o yES YASMINE THE CROSS SHIV
“that’s your femoral artery” i LOve a nerdy badass <33
“oh you uNHoLy biTcH” AHDHFKALHDJDKD LMFAOOO YESSSS
wanna take a moment to acknowledge bea’s compassion when she tells yas keep safe, you’ve done enough.
yasmine my bby going “maybe I’ll just sit here and wait for a while” hahahahA BEST GIRLIE ILY
update up top: camilla my beloved still kicking ass <3
sigh alright back to the slaughter chamber
what is adriel’s gripe with reya ? is it possible it’s actually valid??? i need to know M O R E
alright adriel’s distracted thx for the mindfuck cam mwah x
yes stab his little bitch ass,, love that sword toss + phasing move gO STYLE ON HIM
adriel is an airbender ?????
oh but the shot of michael’s lifeless heart :(((( i didn’t need to see him like this again :(( i’m really gonna miss him rest in peace my boy :(((((
“wait just let me rest for a little bit okay” WAIT NO SHE’S DYING
AND ADRIEL LIVES NO NOT THE EVIL LAUGH NOT THE VIOLIN CADENZA—
(side note love the shot of adriel limping then walking as his foot horrifyingly twists back to normal)
“i cannot be killed in this realm” fucking semantics didn’t pull through in the end :(((
OH AND ava’s been fighting without the halo this whole time???? what a BAMF
TARASKSSSSSSSSSSS WOW never did i think they’d save the day no i lie. semantics saved the day
HAHAHAHAHAHAA TEAR THE BITCH APART insert kill bill meme
ok but did they actually kill him this time (if so DING DONG THE WITCH IS DEAD)
reya to the rescue..! that *nod*
ah, birdsong. they’ll be alright up top :)
and they’re cradling again
and surely these are their final moments together
“Why are you always trying to save me?” (she loves you)
“Be free” (remember this exchange from last time?)
“I love you” (you knew that)
“I love you” (you didn’t hear)
lilith, still “i really hope we end up on the same side”, and then she’s gone too
and there’s nothing left except for the music to ramp up, and the arc to power down, and her to sit at its base,
and it finally hits her, she’s lost, it’s over
post-ocs!bea is Yet Another Vibe
ugh when i have the energy i’ll make another rant about the significance of her looks this season
sister dora arms! cute hair~
of course, the montage and the cast sendoffs as bea walks out but she looks happy, free
a final farewell, but only for now <3
extra shoutout to [Always Forever] the lofi credits, istg the ost this season SLAPS
but yeah, holy shit, it really is over. that’s it, that’s all of season 2 huh (i’m hoping so hard for a season 3 and more). damn this was a good ride. so many new memories to treasure. so many more thoughts yet to be articulated. but all that for later,
