#and its ALSO wild bc literally last time we saw Najara when Xena still thought she was good she tried to leave Gabrielle behind

Najara: you claim to have changed. Why can’t I? After all, we both had the same inspiration. Gabrielle. But unlike you I’ve changed my whole life for her. You just changed sides

Xena: you hurt Gabrielle and I will change you in ways that are anything but peaceful

Najara: You forget? Hurting Gabrielle is your job

#gods i wanna transcribe this whole conversation because it's making me INSANE #Universe Ends Posts #xena #spofidgjodf #its just SO much the fucking. the fuckin. they're both in love with Gabrielle they're both so in love with her #but its also about so much more than that and i- hngh this show is gonna make me start eating dirt i just #the fucking. juxtaposition of Xena being violent and having the path of a warrior but also always always being so respectful of gabrielle #completely honest an gentle towards her in all ways and even encouraging her to find her own way and wanting her to be happy #and then there's Najara who has converted to the path of peace (presumably) but is also clinging to Gabrielle and the idea of Them #trying to drive Xena away instead of offering Gabrielle a choice. you know what i mean? #and its ALSO wild bc literally last time we saw Najara when Xena still thought she was good she tried to leave Gabrielle behind #WITH Najara! and Gabrielle was Not Happy about it! and then she sacrificed herself for Xena anyways! #saying she'd stay with Najara if she left Xena alone! and that! all wrapped up in this new dynamic! #i'm just- isodfugodf #Heated Drama Between Women #its all about Gabrielle and her love and her life and the path she'll choose and neither Xena or Najara realize she's made her own choices #there's no 'Gabrielle is better off with me' bc Gabrielle has already Decided that she can be peaceful and also be with Xena #Gabrielle knows where she's better off!
