So my mom watched the final episode of ‘Wynonna Earp’ with me. My strictly Christian-Catholic conservative-brainwashed mother watched an episode representing acceptance and celebration of gay/queer marriage with the WayHaught Wedding.
She cried. She smiled. She laughed.
She seemed to really enjoy watching it.
I think it’s time I stop worrying that she won’t accept me for who I am. At this point it’s nothing but fear.
My dad on the other hand… maybe he would have something negative to say but ultimately would just go with whatever my mom thought about it in the end.
So I think I’m gonna be brave and come out to them.
Even if they already know. I mean I’ve been watching gay/queer TV art/entertainment for most of my life so I’d be very surprised if they didn’t know that I was.
Yeah, I’m gonna go for it. See what happens. If I don’t ever post again you’ll know that it never went well.
I don’t want to disappoint them after we’ve just lost our dog but I think that it’s time. At least for my mom.
Yes I am so excited for a Wynonna Earp special but I am also utterly terrified.
Like I trust these people a lot more than other tv show show-runners/writers/actors etc. and it’s one of my favourite shows ever and I always want more of it, but also the finale was perfect (the wonders of the Wayhaught wedding) and I’m worried of what might happen
Ok I have finished Winona Earp and I love these eejits so much
Wayhaught no notes. Glorious.
Jer my sweet fucked up little nerd baby
Rachel & Billy. The future is bright.
Nedly the crusty heart of gold. Perfect.
Wynonna and Doc. They are *bites my fist* the very best. I know Wayhaught is THE ship of the show and they are super cute but I am old and they are babies. I wasn’t invested. Wynonna and Doc however are my perfect catnip couple. The fucked up woman in black leather who doesn’t dare to love and the outlaw who is soft and squishy for her. The way he loves her. The way he looks at her. The way he touches her. But also that he has a journey of growth and redemption to be worthy of her. I just love them. The shot in the last episode where she’s in the wedding dress and he’s running his hands over her trying to find a zip was top level. If you’d told me I would think Tim Rozon in an old timey moustache would be be the hottest man in the world ever I would never have believed it (I’m sure he’s lovely he’s just no my type). Why didn’t we get a soft focus bang session from them? Why?!?!
I have forgotten every single thing about wynonna earp s4 aside from Jeremy's boyfriends amnesia and the wayhaught wedding how can it all just disappear. I put time and effort into binging media the least it could do is stay in my brain
Guys I can’t even contain my elation at what I just saw in that final episode: ‘Old Souls’. I’ll try my best to express myself on what I want to say to make it clear how much it meant to me to see that fantastic finale.
THANK YOU, EMILY ANDRAS for seeing us, for caring about us. For representing us sincerely and lovingly. For putting a bulletproof vest on Nicole Haught so she wouldn’t have to die the same way so many of us have when that’s basically been the only ending we ever got. Just death. And cancellation without conclusion. And even more death. That is honestly the first time that I have ever seen myself have a happy ending in TV art/entertainment. And I’m emotional as fuck over it.
For making it very fucking clear that we’re not just collateral damage even if we are a bit fucked up and that we can choose to be heroes and so much more and it doesn’t have to be an either/or situation ever. That we can live our lives for ourselves and each other and there doesn’t have to be any kind of competition because we’re worthy just as we are. Flaws and faults.
But most of all - showing that good and evil can co-exist and for cultivating moral greyness. For giving us hope that dark days don’t stay dark and that old cliche of it’s always darkest before the dawn. And for showing us that there is always a way out of a curse. Life is what we make of it. Not the other way around.
And thank you Dominique Provost-Chalkley for saving all your f-bombs until the very end. I get it now. 👍😂
