Convincing Someone You Deserve to Love Them Again

        Who doesn't like a movie night?  Especially with someone you care about.  L and I spent many a night watching movies together just the two of us.  A great mix of rom-coms, action, horror, and comedies.  For Laura and Carmilla the VHS tapes they have found will lead to flashback material to life at Silas before Laura.          Ok, so season 0 not my favorite so far. Granted two things I did get from it all happened in the final episode.   A giant future prophecy and then a near miss.  What do I mean by a near miss?  Carmilla and Laura were in the same place before meeting the first time. Will start there first.      L and I have deduced that we had been in the same place at the same time three times before we met.  The first was an assembly in 5th or 6th grade.  We don't have very many details other than it had to do with D.A.R.E.  and it was at an arena....

       When we fall down. Who’s there to pick us up?  When you're a child that’s an easy answer. Our parents. When there’s no one there it’s up to us. Friends can sometimes do the job. But when you're in love there is only one person that can help you up. They know us better than anyone they know what we need to see and what we need to hear.  They know how to pull us up when we fall.  Buckle up this is going to be a long one.     Carmilla knowing where Laura's head is at tries to make a joke to cheer up Laura.  " There, see.  Back in the surveillance state.  You can … update till your heart’s content and complain about how your stuck with me as a roommate again."   Carmilla has been here before.  Remember episode 28 of Season one? ( Support, Dance, Sleep on the Floor )  Episode 28 was the practice for the big game and the big game is about to start.  Laura has now had time to process what has just trans...

 Compromising who we are can be very scary.  Especially when it is values and beliefs you hold dearest. You are about the make a decision that isn't black or white. The decision usually has positives and negatives.  For Carmilla, she has already asked herself this question.  Is she worth it?  By trying to rescue Laura she answered yes.  Now it's Laura's turn. She is now presented with the question.  Is she worth it?             The Execution of Carmilla Karnstein" Episode 36 . Danny is dead Carmilla has been captured by Vordenberg.  Laura has essentially given up and doesn't know what to do.  Enter Vordenber who is surprised by the fact Laura isn't upset at Carmilla's execution. Carmilla is also surprised by this " Wait, what?  You beg me to come and save you and I do, even though you blew me off by  way of Doris Day."   Laura "   I blew you off ?  I wasn’t the one who was all...

          "Last Call"  Episode 34 .  Saying your sorry is really hard.  I mean it's really hard.  You are completely putting yourself out in the open with no protection.  No walls no place for a soft landing. That however isn't the hardest thing to do in an apology. Far from it.  It’s forgiving the person who is apologizing.       When being apologized to there is even more vulnerability. You are having to accept something someone is saying.  Understand what they are saying and be able to make a decision quickly based on it.  How you respond to the apology can make you even more vulnerable than the person apologizing.                   First the apologizer Laura.  In this episode, Laura has come to some conclusions about how she has acted and some decisions she has made.  It's better for me to just let Lara tell you. " I know y...
