Is Deeâs mom gonna come back orâ??? Is dee an orphan now? I really hope she does return because that doesnât sit right with me. Tic needs to get his attitude in check & realize that ji ah is there to help him. Christina and Ruby are just... no. I hope Christina isnât just using ruby until sheâs not convenient anymore then either kills Ruby or tosses her aside.. I know the âadultsâ had their own stuff going on but none of them even looked for Dee like wtf
I hope maybe Diana will join Hippolyta in her comic... and theyâll have their happily ever after. I have a feeling the âadultsâ wonât get her mom back for her. I mean, as you said they didnât even fucking look for her, theyâre gonna do shit to help her save her mom.Â
Like... they didnât even care to sit her down and talk to her about what happened to Hippolyta? Thatâs messed up. And they didnât not do it out of helplessness, they just literally seemed to not care enough to bother. Like Diana becoming in orphan is just an inconvenience.
I have this theory (hope) that this show is using two different hero stories to juxtapose them... the classic one around Tic, with some misogynistic undertones, and the modern one âdone rightâ, around Hippolyta and her daughter. The reason Iâm thinking this is the âcomicâ symbolism around Dianaâs story and the âliteratureâ symbolism around Ticâs... they both set out on classic hero arcs, only Deeâs is a lot more deep, emotional and complicated whereas Ticâs one is very action aka plot driven. They check the boring love story without any depth, they check the villain, they check the treasure chest hunt, the objects that need to be found... and Deeâs and Hippolytaâs are ones around self discovery, theyâre much more real life-ey, messy, the plot doesnât have any clear structural guidelines. Itâs super super interesting. Also I have to say I cried only two times in this show: Once during the final voiceover in Hippolytaâs ep, and once during Dianasâ about how black girls are just... forgotten by everyone. It just broke my heart jesus christ
And yeah Ruby and Christina.... I have complicated emotions towards them:D on the one hand, that hella toxic dynamic is really intriguing bc itâs so intense, and because Christinaâs motives are so unclear to me. Like she actually seems to be genuinely interested in Ruby? I hope she is, simply for the show to be able to tell us âevil people might truly love you, but that doesnât mean theyâe good for you bc well, theyâre still bad people.â Like obviously I donât ship them at all emotionally, itâs just... their scenes are hot as hell. The actorsâ (all three...) chemistry is off the charts, and itâs just a delight to watch. If only there wasnât that looming fear in the back of my mind,... especially now with this âChristina will help, for meâ stuff in the trailer. Seems like Ruby is actually growing to trust Christina?? which.. uhm Iâm scared lol
