what she means: Okay the idea that we can just use Grace Burgess AKA Grace Fucking Shelby as some kind of on-going torture trope for Thomas is kind of ridiculous. I really love Tommy with my entire heart and soul but I am sick and tired of this whole “kill off our female lead and make it a plot twist” game. It’s not even a TWIST any more because I saw it happening a mile away. Grace Burgess was a god damn spy that pulled a fast one over THOMAS SHELBY aka mob boss of the peaky fucking blinders gang. Grace Burgess struggled in the streets and killed a man. Grace Burgess shot up some dudes in a pub to save Tommy’s life, then single handedly watched him beat the living shit post-PTSD out of them. And she prevailed, and she saw him and did not run away. Grace Burgess was an agent of the crown and held a gun to Polly Shelby’s face, only to sit down and settle things like a woman. She was an UNDERCOVER SPY. She fucking shot a man holding a gun to her head in the leg and crippled him with a gun she kept hidden in her handbag. Tommy Shelby brought Grace to his business meetings because he needed a touch of “class”. Grace Shelby looked Duchess Tatiana square in the eye and challenged her, like “My man will kiss that hand of yours but his lips have been on my pussy, not yours.” Grace Shelby has always known the consequences of loving Thomas Shelby. Don’t think for a second she is the naive housewife she has been portrayed as lately. Keep in mind Grace Shelby’s entire persona is about being underestimated. If it’s one thing we’ve learned, don’t underestimate her. Grace Shelby is not afraid of guns. Or fast women. Or violence. Or looking at Tommy Shelby the wrong way. Grace Shelby is surrounded by pretty things with a pretty lifestyle, and knows exactly what kind of money is being used to pay for everything. Grace Shelby wants a better life for her and her husband, but she’s the Queen and the show has been about watching her rise. She will cut you, slay you, and destroy you while maintaining the femininity that she reeks of. Grace Shelby is not a pawn to toss around for the benefit of the males around her– shoot her down & watch her rise like the Grace of God. Like she should. Like she will.
