“Subtext” come on who are we kidding here, this show was gay AF and everyone knew it. (It’s verifiable but Lucy and Renee did pick up on it a bit later 😅)
I see so many fandoms use the name Hope as the name for their fanfic OC kid of two characters but it's forever ruined for me cuz of Xena: The Warrior Princess with Gabrielle's daughter 🤣
1. The couple dynamics between Avatrice and Ellie x Dina- personality: one’s reserved and introverted, the other’s forwarding and extroverted. Appearances: well, we all see the resemblance between Ava/Alba and Ellie (no disrespect to the tv show tlou though). And tbh, I find Bea/KTY look faintly like Dina (obviously they are of different races and ethnicities, but still… maybe it’s the freckles on their faces… idk)
2. The need to remain close to each other regardless of the external situation and constant touchiness between Avatrice and Xena x Gabrielle.
Not sure why my creative juices led me to create this short edit, but alas, here we are. I was really hooked on Neoclassical music around the time I first started watching this show, which was probably weird for someone my age. One of my first core memories is waking up to this song playing on late night informercials after falling asleep with the TV on.
