What do you find to be the most striking parallels or symbology in favor of BB in the show? For me it is the clip back in V3 when they are seen to be holding hands as Sun gazed down at them, as in film this symbolizes two love interests, one being cut off and one being connected at a deeply emotional level.
Oooooh, that’s a really good one. I remember losing my shit about that one, especially because they framed it in a way so that Sun was specifically looking at Blake holding Yang’s hand rather than looking at Blake and/or Yang.
I have a huge soft spot for “black the beast, yellow beauty” because I’m just so in love with how literally the first thing we hear about Blake or Yang (aside from their colours) is something that links them to a fairy tale romance. If they ever came out and said Bumbleby was planned since the very beginning, I’d believe them just because of these lines.
I also really love that Yang and Adam are foils. Like, y’all are really going to make Yang have all these parallels with Blake’s ex, except Yang is also better than him in every way. You’re really going to go there.
And there’s also comparing Blake and Yang’s reunions with literally anyone else vs. their reunion with each other. There’s such a clear difference there. Whenever I have doubts about canon Bees, I always just remind myself about how Blake walked into that room of chaos and people she left behind and the only thing she could do was say Yang’s name, and Yang looked at Blake like she was everything she could ever want in the world.
