I'm working on a wallpaper of 'Ava's Fall' in 2x05 when I came across this screencap. If you had no knowledge of this moment, I think we'd all be thinking the same thing.

So I was a fan of Ava and Sister Beatrice in season 1 but I didn’t realize how much until I watched Season 2. The slow burn is real in season 2 but it’s so good. Normally when a show adds a male character in, the LGBT storyline kind of takes the way side, but not in this one. It’s made clear right from the start that Ava likes Beatrice and Beatrice likes Ava but the two of them are so focused on protecting each other, they don’t stop to experience what’s happening. That is until Ava goes into a fight she is expecting to die from. Then it all comes out. Wow. I can’t think of a single storyline that’s like this one. I absolutely loved it. So much so that I’m about 3,100, words into writing a post season 2 storyline because if you watched past the couple credits, you saw that it was clear Ava came back. You don’t see it, but you know it.

In episode 2x04 before the church fight, I love how Ava and Beatrice got into that church via different means. Ava played along with the whole “I want to be saved by Adriel” by accepting him, and Beatrice chose violence, literally throwing the man into the church. Ava was just like “Si, Si, yes, awesome.” And Beatrice probably got asked the question, and immediately punched him in the face.

I think one of the best behind the scenes things about Season 2 of Warrior Nun is that they wrote it before Season 1 even aired. So they had full intentions to make Avatrice canon, and have them hanging out in Switzerland for two months, getting closer day by day, living in an apartment, sleeping on one bed, Ava falling from a hotel, then falling love, all of it. They didn’t write it knowing that there were people that loved the fandom, they did it because that was the plan all along. So… now knowing how much of a following there is for Avatrice, I really want a season 3 to see just how far they take it. How do you write a season knowing that your ship, that you had created, actually is well loved among a lot of people? Im very curious.

Keep watching Warrior Nun. I don’t even know what playthrough I’m on now, but don’t stop.

Next to Beatrice being tranquilized in 2x03, one of the most interesting parts of that episode was that Father Vincent had no clue what Ava and Beatrice were doing in Switzerland. So much so that when he caught them in Madrid, he immediately tranq’ed Beatrice thinking that would be enough to capture Ava. But what he didn’t realize was that Beatrice had been training Ava, so she was just as powerful of a fighter as Beatrice is.

In most things, video games, tv, whatever, you try to subdue the one that will cause you problems. In this situation, Father Vincent assumed Beatrice was the power player here, which she definitely is, but he wasn’t expecting Ava to actually have more of a grip on her halo powers. Had he gone after Ava first, he might have captured her… but I suspect not because as previously stated, there is a reason he went after Beatrice first. He knows he probably couldn’t beat her in a fight.

Basically, what I love most about this show is that there are so many angles to everything. You could look at a moment in a bunch of different ways, and still find it so interesting. At least that’s what I’m finding in all of my rewatches.

Can we talk about how important this tweet is for a second?

I'm gonna say this again once a Trailer for Season 2 drops but this person is absolutely right and it reminded me of something @ground-zoro posted a while ago:

Netflix does NOT put enough work into promoting Warrior Nun, it is up to us fans, I think someone on the production team even mentioned that they only got renewed because Netflix saw how dedicated the fans of this series are. Things we can do are listed down below, feel free to add :)

The plot of Warrior Nun develops relatively slowly compared to other shows on streaming platforms. Normally we have a clear "team" and clear team dynamics by episode 3, and the couple gets together either in the middle or at the end of the season and the end goal of the protagonists is also clear very early on. Because streaming platforms want audiences to binge watch, there isn't really time for good slowburns or for the 'real conflict' / 'real enemy' to be revealed later on.

This slow pace was one of the things reviewers didn't like on Rotten Tomatoes or IMDB and maybe WN also lost some viewers who didn't complete the first season because only at the end of S1 we have all those things I listed above.

Warrior Nun has potential and I think it needs and deserves at least 3 or 4 seasons to tell its story, our job is to make sure that happens and these are some things we can do:

▪︎ once a trailer comes out we need to promote it online as well as offline so that even people who only watched Season 1 casually remember the show and come back for Season 2 (ergo WN doesn't lose viewers)

▪︎ once the episodes are out we should watch them within 28 days, complete the season and if possible, watch more than 2 episodes directly after another!!!(This is something that the Netflix algorithm really likes)

▪︎Rewatches also help

▪︎ If you have access to other Netflix accounts, watch WN on them and give a positive rating. You can mute your laptop/TV while doing homework, workouts, work, etc.

▪︎ make TikToks, Twitter and YouTube edits and memes of Ava and Beatrice (add more moments from S2)!! THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT STEP! We all know that queer people watch stuff with queer couples in it and often you find out that there's a wlw couple on social media. The wilds on Amazon Prime, for example, partly became so popular because people already knew that they could expect a lesbian couple (Shelby and Toni) in it because they saw them on TikTok.

▪︎ don't only promote Warrior Nun in English but also in your native language/ the languages that you speak. One of this show's biggest strenghts is that it was able to get many views from non-english speaking countries and we should take that into consideration.

▪︎ spam the RenewWarriorNun Hashtag on Twitter

▪︎ leave a good rating on Netflix

▪︎ leave good reviews and ratings on IMBD/Rotten Tomatoes etc. and point out the strenghts of the show and that S2 (hopefully) ties the events of S1 together.

Strenghts of the show are: queer representation in the form of Avatrice as well as Mary, Shannon and Chanel, the scenery, cast diversity, multiple languages are spoken, fight scenes/ action, an overall feminist theme, the theme of dealing with catholic trauma, A BADASS SISTER BEATRICE DAMN, the show doesn't shy away from using swear words, the humour, etc.

▪︎ when you see ppl looking for show reccomendations (with queer representation) on TikTok, Tumblr, Twitter, etc. recommend Warrior Nun in the comments, bring it up so that people will see the title of the show more often.

▪︎ when recommending the show, remind ppl that the plot of the show/ the romance isn't supposed to feel rushed and that by watching the show they contribute to a renewal.

Because productions in Europe, especially Spain, are often cheaper than productions in the US I hope that Netflix won't be too hesitant to renew Warrior Nun for a third season, especially after Warrior Nun was in the Netflix Top Ten (I think) in many countries after it came out so it is our goal that S2 can reach that status as well.

Thank you all, I think Warrior Nun has an amazing fandom ⚔

DONT BE MAD JUST HEAR ME OUT FIRST ukai?

Am I about to post some inktober prompts from last year after I carelessly interrupted the """"""DAILY""""" posting regime I was on for no apparent reason other than "it stopped being 2020"?! ...... yes.

Okay, in all honesty, these last couple of months have been one long rollercoaster ride of uncomfortable "yes and's" that lead to waaay too much work that then my body just couldn't handle and, well.. bitch staged a coup and threw me down. Hard. #floored (?!) So a bunch of things I was really excitedly looking forward to happening later on this year are definitely NOT going to happen until I get my throne back- I mean, till I get my shit together health wise.

Also, I've been pretty sick so that's what's been happening. Was I vague enough?

On to the prompts?

PROMPT N° 10: HOPE

A-.. Ava?

None of you will be able to tell cause the only way anyone can find some semblance of a speck of maybe a bit of a interrelatedness to Warrior Nun is my saying so. And well, the ring back there. Wwwhy is she wearing nothing but bandages?????? The blade??? Why is she half beat up?? What's up with that random square?! I'll never tell *cheeky wink* cause I have no idea.

PROMPT N° 13: DUNE

Dat hair doE

This was me being excited about the casting choices for this movie. Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya as the mains? Yas I want three to go of that combo, wrap em up and add a lil bow, fnx. Also, the fact that the project portfolio for the original concept of dune, one of the first things we saw on filmmaking school so many years ago is finally gonna get done in what looks like an epic piece with cinematographic potential a la MAD Max gold is kind of amazing. Fun fact: Salvador Dalí was supposed to play the bad guy originally.

PROMPT N° 16: ROCKET

Can I have that prosthetic blank back?

I made a Guardian of the Galaxy. The one that didn't blip that's Thor's friend, the mighty talking rabbit. This one was pretty obvious but honestly I'm quite amazed at how cool it turned out. It encouraged me to do more furry friends that you'll see on the next series ;)

PROMPT N°27: MUSIC

Facial expressions: no?

Oh to live in a world where every person in your life has a nice and professionally trained singing voice and you get to have a personal and personalized concert every time one of their heart strings are pulled.. but you can't control it. It's a damn good show and Jane Levy is pretty damn fine as Zoey, she's an amazing actor and I'm glad she got the recognition she deserved for her talents with a gg nom earlier this year. Her comedic timing is ON POINT I luv hr.

PROMPT N°19: DIZZY

Quick! Gotta catch that bu- oh no..

My thoughts as my blood pressure dropped every morning after having my oatmeal based breakfast and right as I'm running after the bus through one of the shadiest and most dangerous neighborhoods with my back pack full of delicate camera equipment for college. Took me a while to understand that the blood pressure drops were caused by to the oatmeal being a vasodilator... Uhg no more of that before a run I guess.

Yes I added myself as a character how Mary Sue of me, my immortal much?

See you in a few months for the last installment of the inktober series when I can't handle the guilt eating at me anymore and decide to come to the drafts section here on Tumblr to add lil epigraphs to each long done and finished doodle before posting it without forgetting the mandatory apology for being an ass.
