Okay guys I know not many are reading this story (not surprising, there has only been once chapter so far) but I promise I am working on the second chapter. I'm hoping it will be up this weekend but honestly, I don't know.
You might find it stupid but Lexa's death has really affected me. You see, not only was she a lesbian character, she was also a strong character. She was so well written and portrayed (HUUUGGEEEEE thank you to Alycia for that).
Lexa's character has helped me come out to my family, which is quite a big deal for me since the biggest part of my family lives in Ecuador and is catholic and I was not sure how they were going to react). She helped me with this because I thought, 'If a lesbian character is in a production like this, and her sexuality isn't the big deal, then maybe my sexuality isn't that big of a deal either'. Lexa was inspiring because she was a lesbian character but the big deal about her wasn't that she was a lesbian, the big deal was that she was a strong female character, a commander, a leader, but still a person. A person with human emotions.
They introduced a queer character but did not build a story around her sexuality, but around her. And that made me realize that maybe my story, of me as a person, wasn't really about my sexuality either, but about me, with my sexuality being a part of me. She helped me come to terms with myself and for that I am forever grateful.
I hope you understand that I need time to recover from her death. Writing this is already bringing tears to my eyes, imagine what writing a fanfiction about her where she does live on does to me.
Love,
Bella.
P.S. can we talk about Eliza's and Alycia's acting though? Not only during the death scene, also during the sex scene. Their eyes portray so many emotions and it makes it feel so real. I am emotional. And I'm also totally here for Elyza Lex.
In peace, may you leave the shore
In love, may you find the next
Safe passage on your travels
Until our final journey to the ground
May we meet again.
