See what I mean? It really is like they’re in an eternal dance where they keep shifting from leader/follower.

It’s such a damn profound dynamic between them that informs everything that goes on in the show.

And viewing it as a romance makes it all the better because it’s like the stakes are so much higher then.

And it becomes an EPIC romance/love story that’s all about trying to hold on to that love and growing together in it all the while fighting for the greater good just like all the truly romantic and domestic partners that ever existed. All those legendary heroic lovers.

I love interpreting the entire show that way because it makes the most sense to and it feels most valuable to.

Because they focus on their individual arcs equally, you truly do see such a constant turn over and over.

As I said. An eternal dance. In one life/reality, Xena will be the leader and Gabrielle the follower, and then the next, the roles will reverse and it’ll be the opposite.
