fuffy really has everything. they're the chosen two. shadow selves. narrative foils. strangers to friends to enemies to exes/reluctant allies (to the lovers they become in my head post-chosen). she tries to fuck all her boyfriends. she's jealous of her. she wants to be her. she wants to have her. she chains her to a wall. she pins her against that same wall. they exchange forehead kisses. they have homoerotic fight scenes. she handcuffs them together in the middle of one. they share dreams ("is this my mind or yours?"). they've swapped bodies. they're the only ones who could ever understand each other. they hated each other, but they never stopped loving each other. She even stabs her

Ah, but in Norway we open all the presents on Christmas Eve. So we not only peek, we gleefully tear that wrapping apart.

Love how tumblr has its own folk stories. Yeah the God of Arepo we’ve all heard the story and we all still cry about it. Yeah that one about the woman locked up for centuries finally getting free. That one about the witch who would marry anyone who could get her house key from her cat and it’s revealed she IS the cat after the narrator befriends the cat.

Reading/listening to lesbian romance novels is 80-90% going: "Oh, this used to be a fanfiction!" And then spending about 20 minutes figuring out which ship it was originally.
It's also going: "Now, this is just porn." And "jeez, they're idiots!"
I love it.

Yes, yes, The L Word intentionally excluded.
Place your answer in the tags if it’s none of the above, especially if it’s The Facts of Life, or South of Nowhere, or Sailor Moon, or Skins, or Rizzoli & Isles, or Grey’s Anatomy, or Person of Interest, or Orange is the New Black, or Orphan Black, or Steven Universe, or Agent Carter, or The Bold Type, or Killing Eve, or Captain Marvel, or The Haunting of Bly Manor, or Critical Role, or Warrior Nun, etc. etc. etc.
It was hard to whittle the choices down to 12, okay?
