TvyNovelas interview
How did you prepare for this story?
M: We talked a lot before starting to record, we wanted to tell the story of two people who identify with each other and fall in love, where gender wouldn’t matter that much. Also, for me the magic is that between two girls there is always a connection that goes beyond. That thing of how you understand each other, how you feel and that sensitivity with which you can communicate many times without speaking.
B: This relationship has a lot to do with friendship, because it transcends and that is the basis of love.
It was a big responsibility for the small screen …
B: It was an experiment on this side because we did not know what was going to happen and how the audience would react, so we didn’t know how much we could put of our own experience or if we just let ourselves go. In the end, the result was incredible.
M: We put things that were not in the script as we were building it, so that the story would be better understood. The greatest responsibility that we had to live with was the ability to translate what they lived and felt, and we achieved that.
What happened when you saw yourselves as a trend for the first time in social media? Did you call each other?
M: It was progressive. Barbara, do you remember that day? What happened is that when we thought that everything was at its maximum, something else always arrived, every night. It was awesome and I can tell you that it made us very happy.
B: exactly that: there have been so many moments that we are very grateful to the fans, it was a lesson of confidence.
Do you have any scenes that specifically remember?
B: The one in the pool, it’s epic with the cold we had! And the shower one because it was another completely different scenario, we were literally boiling.
M: Just as they see us as casual we were trembling, it was so cold, we can not explain it. We clung to the water below and said: “What are we going to do?”, We could not stop shaking. They are super difficult scenes, we were very concentrated and at the same time every detail was taken care of; I believe that they saw us suffer so much (in the pool with the cold water) that in the shower one they said: “We better burn them”.
Barbara, you always said that it is better to go slowly but surely; You already made it, how do you feel now?
B: There’s a say that God’s times are perfect and I think that’s the way it is. I’ve always known that I can do bigger things but I trusted my process, I give a lot of value to every step, however small, and all of that leads to the perfect moment and that is why I am here.
M: Barbara and I talked a lot, especially because of the circumstances in which we ended up working together, and we defined it in one sentence: “Points are connected backwards and not forwards”, life goes by and we question ourselves “why me? ”, Whether good or bad, actually, the answer is seen later, and for us to find each other now makes sense.
How is your relationship off camera?
B: Sincerelly, that is the most important thing, and what makes chemistry go through the screen. I already found a friend in Maca, why waste this relationship? It is such an important moment in our lives that we will never forget. Sorority is the word that defines us.
M: Sometimes they teach you to compete, be stronger, bigger, go first no matter what. In our case, this would not have happened the one without the other, “Juliantina” we are two people who will never cross the rights of the other for their own benefit. That is something very valuable, a generational example of doing things differently.
What is the first thing that comes to your mind when i say Amar a Muerte?
B: amazing luck.
M: Something that we will cherish forever.
Anything you want to add?
B: Thanks, Maca.
M: There are so many things … thank you, Barbara.

Heaven Is A Place On Earth (Yorkie/Kelly)
Summary: Yorkie and Kelly have forever to keep finding new things out about each other, but this discovery may be Kelly’s favorite. (If you haven’t seen the episode “San Junipero” of Black Mirror yet, go watch it now! I wanted to write something about these girls because they are too fucking cute. Enjoy!)
It was weird, falling asleep beside Kelly, and then waking up beside her. Even though the clock had struck midnight, she was still there, her curls falling around her face as she slept peacefully, the sheets draped across her bare chest.
But the best thing was being woken up by Kelly, with kisses and giggles and sometimes even breakfast in bed.
Yorkie had never had someone wake her up in such a loving way, and every time, it made her heart flutter.
