Very important observation from Orla

[smolivegarden]

There's something so beautiful about the sisterhood of two middle aged women with an absolutely reckless past from when they were younger.

Until she bagged her medical student boyfriend. We weren’t good enough for the likes of Janette then, oh no.

DERRY GIRLS APPRECIATION WEEK: day four → favourite dynamic: Orla and Sarah McCool

Orla really thrives in the wild, you know. That time we went camping in Portsalon, sure she was like Mowgli running around them woods. She was that happy, Mary, I honestly thought about just leaving her there. Ach, Mammy <3

All the Wee Derry Girls were amazing, but the one playing Wee Aunt Sarah (Dearbháile McKinney) was almost eerie.

Things To Never Say To Someone Who Just Came Out

[smolivegarden]

Sarah and Orla McCool are weird girls and they are unapologetic about it because they’re just being themselves and no one in their lives makes them feel less than for being different and I wish I had had that growing up.

in season 3's prom episode of derry girls, it was clear that the dynamics between the mothers when they were in high school were replicated in the next generation too. The four women attended the prom with Diedre's cousin accompanying her (and then all of them). So we have four girls and a male cousin of one of them which is just like the Derry girls' situation. And Rob was openly gay. Doesn't this hint at James being gay/queer too ?

The Reunion

Derry Girls | S03E05

[smolivegarden]

one of my favorite decisions in Derry Girls is never once referring to Orla having a father and that her name and Aunt Sarah's name is still McCool, because Orla, sprite-like creature that she is, having no other biological origin and being magicked into being by psychic vibes or the universe is AS believable to me as Aunt Sarah having gotten pregnant by a man and completely forgetting who he was or where it happened because she doesn't live according to the human concept of time or reason.
