catra would definitely be an emo imo... she had a my chemical romance phase in her teens (why else would she be so good at eyeliner??) and then she'd also like grungy music,,, im thinking hole n veruca salt maybe... idk...

for adora she's just straight up paramore's biggest fan. catra would force adora to listen to emo music and thus paramore but also their pop-punk aspect would fit w her... in my mind glimmer&bow would introduce adora to pop music... also im sensing that she would like fiona apple .... My 6th sense is telling me as such...

like she was also raised by shadow weaver... i get that shes supposed 2 b the Good Guy but cmon. she couldve been more toxic. catra cannot be the only toxic one.

in my mind adora would be the Controlling type of toxic, where she kinda thinks she Owns catra bc shadow weaver constantly made catra adora's responsibility and prolly embedded the idea that catra is an extension of Adora thus... controlling.. plus since adoras like catras only friend = more reliance on adora 👀👀👀👀 catra's codependence on adora would Nourish this nicely...

cuz we see Catra mirror shadow weaver in the series, can we see adora mirror sw by not recognising catra's autonomy since she views catra as her own....? Just putting it out there guys dont jump me.... its toxic for a reason...

this couldve been capitalised on when adora tries to get catra to leave the horde w her at the start because since adora thinks catra is an extension of herself, she thinks catra will willingly follow anywhere she goes and its a bit of a shock when catra has her own agency outside of adora... Disobedience yk. Equals dispute Equals fighting Equals toxic yuri yummy

also she'd want catra all to herself. she gets jealous of scorpia in the graphic novel idc shes possessive in my mind... 👀

Idek how this happened but genuinely. every time. im crying.

We actually all have to think about how adora's wishful future ends with catra holding out her hand for adora instead of the other way around

like the whole series adora has repeatedly held her hand out to catra (literally and metaphorically with how she keeps trying to get catra on her side) and her perfect future means no longer having to beckon catra over bcuz catra joins her anyways :')

it also shows how much adora truly wants to be loved and be chosen for Herself instead of being she-ra, specifically by Catra bcuz Catra’s possibly the only person who saw Adora’s individual worth outside of being she-ra. like. Adora wouldn't have to fight for love. It would just be reciprocated.

ALSO bcuz catra is notoriously bad at showing her feelings and love for adora due her insecurities, her openly Asking for adora to join her is just sooooo. Omg. Catra wouldn't be scared to show her love for adora because they'd be That secure in eachother.

Adora wouldn't have to fight for love, and catra would be able to openly love adora; it's literally a microcosm for the climax of the finale where catra finally expresses that she loves adora and adora finds her own strength from that. Because Catra was holding out her hand.

its also interesting how it's that freeze frame in the wish that flickers with horde prime bevause its possibly the most unrealistic part of the wish (to adora at this point imo) and its kinda why catras love confession is so poignant because catra literally does the most impossible part of the wish and its enough to bring adora back.

Holy shit. What a fucking show.

and when i say every force i mean every force. shadow weaver, light hope telling adora she had to let go, the rebellion and the horde, even their own conflicting loyalties that drive them apart even down to the penultimate episode of s5... And they still choose eachother because they love eachother. theyre literally defying destiny to be with eachother.
