The appeal of Avaās deepest wish being a normal girl, for her to then fall in love with a woman, and yet because she lives in a scifi universe where nothing can be taken for granted thatās the most normal part in her life. Thatās the part that makes her feel like a regular person. Thatās the part that makes her feel like sheās just human, experiencing normal human emotions. Thatās the part that fulfills her deepest wish of being just, a normal girl. And on the one hand having the scifi universe as a backdrop is a nice way to put the queerness of the protagonist into perspective because really, who cares when youāve got angels and portals and different dimensions and the end of the world, but on the other hand itās also very true to Ava because to her there really is nothing abnormal about falling for a woman, compared to falling in love with a guy. Where being queer is to so many people the part of us that makes us feel strange and different and outcast, Avaās love for Beatrice is what brings her home.
