Just A Few Observations About The Scenes With Diego And Lila

Just a few observations about the scenes with Diego and Lila…

Lila opens up to Diego and tells him about her family, he kisses her right after and Lila slaps him. Lila then looks really hurt that he did it in her weak moment, but then she kisses him. I get the feeling from that scene that she was afraid she had compromised her mission by her reaction and wanted to make amends.

And honestly? In the scene where she's in bed with Diego, I don't find her expression happy.

At Luther and Sloane's wedding, Lila watches them and smiles.

"That used to be us." "We were never like that. Gross."

Lila looks hurt again and slaps him and he likes it more. My feeling again? Lila actually longed for romance. And even when they have their little moment, Lila doesn't look happy, she doesn't smile.

After the wedding, Lila smiles when she sees how drunk Five is.

Another slap after Diego locked her up to protect her. And another apologetic kiss from her? Why do I get the feeling she was afraid that if she did something that really showed just how angry she was, she'd be afraid Diego would leave her to it all alone with the baby?

I know, maybe I'm overthinking this… but honestly… show me one scene where Lila is actually happy just being in Diego's company and not enjoying the situation, the action, the humor of Five or anyone else, and there's no s e x involved?

Okay, maybe a dance scene…

Still not over this ship 💔

(TUA s4 spoiler)

Surprised? A pair of equaly smartass obnoxious brats-former assasins, both harbored hatred at first but by circumstance reluctantly became partners. In the course of 6 years got lost together in space and time, only had one-another as companion to travel timeline by timeline while fighting side by side in order to - Survive - Find a way back and Stop an Apocalypse in their own home, overtime gradually falling for another.

This 🔝 is what was taken from us, a glimpse into the lost time, this is why I am FOREVER stan that Five & Lila is the one very understandable thing compared to every monstrosities they thrashed in TUA s4.

And when ones still in the proceed of he wouldn't/ she wouldn't. I can write a big a** essay about they would, yeah, they would HARD.

It will have the first paragraph of canon events like - Please gather here for context, what was conveniently be forgotten :

s1 - s3: Happened in 28 days EST (depend on characters)

D!ego & Lila actually met and get together in 20days - few months give or take with Lila traveling in time : Lila found out she was pregnant, always had dreamed about a family she couldn't have , well, when D!ego is a responsible good man who she had feelings for was right there.

-> boy & girl built a family together after few months because the girl (killer - assassin past/ manipulative skills) got pregnant so asked the good boy (made of big chunk hero complex spice with abit mummy issue) for a family.

(keep in mind i'm talikng context, never judged anyone /anything)

Every single one of Hargreeves's sblings wanted to walk out of the family at one point or another. Have experienced love for family and love between lovers (2 souls who match in all levels) - (must i clarify those are totally different kind of love?)

mr.Five - mr.i know best - authority complex (from being the oldest) respectfully disrespect every sblings. Meanwhile showing his questionable ability to control his emotions (the irony is this made him a loveable character)

s4: After 6 years in the new timeline:

Girls got tired, Boys got tired, siblings all so tired.

mr.Five showing his questionable ability to control his emotions. Have experienced love for family and love between lovers (2 souls who match in all levels) (I should clarify those are totally different kind of love)

All of the above pulled out from watching the show, and i can write more about the Subway storyline is not that out of blue for their characters. Anyone shared the same thoughts is welcome.

This is inspired by a quote "May you find someone who speaks your language so you don't have to spend a lifetime translating your soul"

I can't get over that look of love and everlasting devotion.

Marigold Semi-existence Musings

So was discussing the likely possibility of the marigolds being their souls in their own purgatory in the park with someone on discord. How their sense of self may have still been retained with memories, telepathic communications between them. Since this was a way for them to still exist. Just giving up their earthly bodies to not impact the timelines with interference in a negative manner. Allison had said, "Maybe we'll meet again." Five responding "That would be nice..." Tying in to them being the marigolds. A small mercy from the universe or perhaps the mysterious little girl who could represent god or the devil according to Klaus. I'm confident in saying that the two marigolds leaning into each other, practically nuzzling are Five and Lila. Their love story coming to fruition was meant to be the focus of this season originally. Budget and time cuts limited that but their scenes together still painted the picture of the tale. Evoking the proper emotions. Wouldn't have made sense for Lila/Diego since they didn't have more loving scenes together. Apologies riddled with guilt and the need for closure before the end can't be misconstrued for acceptance in love. The season went out of the way to show how that love had withered on the vine over time. Showrunner essentially said they couldn't come back from that and she would have been with five as well. Was reading up on the meaning behind marigold flowers and in the language of flowers; when they are given to someone they are said to represent love and ever lasting devotion. Couldn't help but remember five during the bracelet scene.

Another interesting fact is that the flower is used to help guide the souls of the dead back to the land of the living. Given how the umbrella's sacrificed themselves but their souls are still part of the original timeline, watching familiar faces they saved in a subtle way at the park. A flower that was cultivated by the ancient civilization, the Aztecs. This meaning behind them is why they are often used to celebrate the holiday Dia de los Muertos.

oh and people who write fanfics are not "less talented" than people who write original works as their main source of income, by the way. fanfic writers aren't "all children going through a phase". they're writers who put in time, efforts and dedication just like any other writers, the only difference is that, instead of making their writing a career to earn themselves money, they write for free, out of pure passion, because they love the characters they're writing about so much that they're writing novel-length fics about them. you look uneducated af by using "fanfic writer" as an insult to imply fanfic writers aren't as valid or talented as writers who earn money from their works, especially when I've read so many fanfics that are a lot better and more professionally written than some best-selling books out there.
