I was reading episode summaries of the other Borgias series that's coming out, and it was talking about Lucrezia and Giulia being at each other throats and I was like :( :( :( FAIL.
But god, I love every scene between them, and Giulia watchfully staying back as Lucrezia plays her game, and giving her the little approving look in episode eight (you'll see what I mean when you get to it. It's just such a partners moment even though their eyes don't even really meet, proud of her companion and in some ways pupil.)
And I agree on every count with Sancia. (...including the bit with Alfonso.) SHE IS SO FABULOUS. I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE HER PLAY OFF SOMEONE OTHER THAN JUAN. And I was all D: over Sancia vs Lucrezia, too. But I hope they handle that better.
I had a D: moment when he was being all apologetic and you could see her kind of wondering/softening (THOSE ACTIONS WERE UNFORGIVEABLE TOWARDS ANYONE even though I could understand her, so young and trapped there, wanting a more amenable outlook) but I went back and finished the scene and was happy again. She is so fierce and so young and adorable and sweet at the same time, I love that they let her have that.
I adore Ursula and I don't even care. SHUT UP, FANDOM EVERYWHERE.
