The Aftermath

         

        
    After a truth bomb carpet-bombing what is a couple to do.  Talk it out? Ignore everything said and continue like normal?  The aftermath of a bomb exploding can be devastating there is destruction and debris everywhere.  After most of the insecurities are exposed by your best friend things tend to be a tad awkward.  How you handle the aftermath is important, some need time to figure out their next move, some want to break the awkwardness and talk immediately.

        In the next three episodes following Maddie's introduction you can tell both are shaken and Laura trying to figure out what the board is up to interferes with them confronting all the insecurities that have come out.  Laura feels Carmilla needs to have a sit-down chat again with Maddie to see if she can get information from her about the murder of the journalism department.

        In "Sister Spycraft" Episode 10.  Carmilla doesn't feel great about spying on Maddie for Laura, but she knows if she can get her to tell the truth, then this will all be over, and she can fix things with Laura and ride off into the sunset.  Maddie however turns the tables on Carmilla brings up the fact that maybe she and Laura are together just because it justifies killing "Mother" and that eventually Carmilla will bore of Luara and go back to being her dark and usual self. 

        In these episodes, there isn't a lot of time for just Laura and Carmilla and you can tell Carmilla is a little annoyed that they aren't able to talk.  Similar to this after the bombs were dropped on me and L, L was pledging a sorority and we didn't have a lot of time for us.  In the long run, her joining a sorority was just what L need to get through college at the time.  I wasn't a fan because it was taking her away from her time with me.  This lack of conversations eventually led to the talk.(A Long Talk)      

        When there is a conflict within the relationship and it's not discussed and sits and festers your headed to a bumpy ride.  I'm sure Laura and Carmilla want to talk through these issues that Maddie has presented them with.  L and I eventually talked this out but there was conflict and tension up till we had that long talk.  In a dramatic setting, I can't imagine how bumpy it's about to get for Laura and Carmilla.

Not All Keys Click

                     I'm not done with this episode.  Have you ever had a key go into a lock but it doesn't open that door?  A lot of keys fit but they don't always open the right door.  L and I live in a very old house, and we have doors everywhere.  Some with keys some without.  Some of these old keys have been worn down and don't always click into place but they open the door nun the less.  For L and me, this couldn't be more true.  It's the right key.  It's the right lock.  It's the right door, and everything will work but it just doesn't click all the time.    For Luara and Carmilla this is also true.  Maybe even more accurate than L and I.  I bring this up because Laura brings this analogy up in this episode.  I don't practically agree with her statement.  I'm guessing she will learn that not all keys have to click smoothly to open the right d...

The End or the Beginning? (Not everything goes to plan)

            The end or the beginning?  This is the question I thought about after the credits rolled.  The story was over.  Laura and Carmilla got their happy ending.  So why do I feel like this is just the beginning?  Simple they are headed to the greatest adventure in life a long relationship with your soul mate.  Learning to live with someone is quite a challenge.  L and I were at a similar point in our life as well.  So I did find something to relate to at the end of the story.           The first thing I want to do is point out how big of a moment the cocoa was in season one ( The Aha Moment )  Why? Because Laura said it was a big deal. " But we’ve had kisses, and cocoa, and stars,  and dancing.  That’s so much more than nothing." When your facing the end or what you think is the end you tend to reflect on the good things that happened.  Essentially this blog...
