I’m in love with how much Hester and Oleta are in love

Side A: Hester/Oleta - Side B: Roimata/Claudia

the narrators and their loves from both seasons of within the wires

small brain: there isn’t a lot of fan fiction for Within the Wires because it’s a relatively small fandom

normal brain: lesbian relationships are under represented in general media and this carries over into fan fiction

big brain: misogyny / internalized misogyny and the wish to avoid the stress and emotional tax of dealing with real world issues of sexism prevents women and lesbian relationships from being more represented in fan fiction

galaxy brain: Within the Wires is a flawless and perfect show and therefore has no void that needs to be filled by fan fiction

Within the Wires season 1: the emotional tale of an artist trying to rescue the girl she’s in love with

Within the Wires season 2: periodic installments of an artist calling out the girl she has a crush on
