I’m a big Scylla stan, and I would fight anybody attacks my baby. But I feel recently a lot of you are upset with Raelle and how cold she was with Scylla in the last episodes. So I wanted to give you my view to maybe help you understand her better

Lots of you don’t seem to understand Raelle’s behavior toward Scylla in the last 3 episodes. And I know after what she said in episode 4 we were all hoping that when she does find the truth about Scylla she would understand and forgive her, but we all know that’s not what

happened. The "you’re dead to me" and "I wish we’d never met" still hurt very much, and I’m still waiting for Taylor to pay my therapy bills but that beyond the point. So did Raelle lie ? Did she not love Scylla ? Did she not meant what she said ? Well I’m a Raelle stan, so of

course you know my answer is no. She fucking loved Scylla (and still does now but it became a little bit more complicated) with all her heart and mean every word she said to her. So why all the angst ? Well because she just found out her girlfriend is a terrorist and has

been lying to her since day 1, and was using her the whole damn time. Ok we know Scylla felt for her for real (and Raelle kind of knows it too) but is love enough ? No seriously, if you were to discover you partner was a mass murderer and lying to you since the start of

your relationship, would you be all rainbows and sunshines, "I love you, so I don’t care what horrible things you may have done, you’re forgiven" ? Because I’m pretty sure that won’t be my reaction. And yes they love each other, but love is not enough, love can’t fix broken

trust and months of lies, love can’t fix a relationship that was build on foundations of duplicity and deception. No it takes time for that, time to forgive and time to move on. And during that time, Raelle is basically grieving her relationship with Scylla and so she goes

through every step of grief: Denial (at the start of episode 8 when learning the truth), Anger (at the end of episode 8 till after her talk with Scylla in the cell), Bargaining (ok it didn’t seem like she went through that stage but grief is different between people),

Depression (when she cries by herself next to their tree, and says to Anacostia she still loves her) and acceptance (when she asks Anacostia to make sure they don’t go to hard on Scylla in episode 10, knowing they will probably never seeing each other again). I really wanted

to explain this because I’ve seen that many of you felt that Raelle’s reactions in the last episodes were out of character for her, but no she was grieving. And let’s be clear she is grieving her relationship with Scylla, but not her feelings for Scylla, she still loves her

but she knows, or she thinks she knows, that they have no future together, they can’t be together. Raelle is in the army, Scylla is with the Spree, they’re basically modern-witch-gay-versions of Romeo and Juliette (and I don’t want to spoil, but Romeo and Juliette both died

at the end…). I mean it’s not because they love each other that Alder will suddenly say "What they love each other ?! Of course, I’m releasing Scylla!". And that’s not like they could live on the run either, because it would mean for Raelle to abandon her sisters and even

if she did, they would be running away from both the military and the Spree, and considering how running away from the military only turns out for Scylla’s parent ? Yep, living on the run is not the smartest idea. So what ? Raelle and Scylla love each other, but that’s

about it. They can’t be together, Scylla has lied so many time that Raelle can’t help wondering on what was true. And I know what you’re gonna tell me, "Raelle said she’d be with her no matter what happens". Yes she did, but right now, even if she wanted to stay with her,

she couldn’t. Scylla’s gonna ne shipped of to die in the Caribbean and there’s nothing Raelle can do about it. I’m not saying she would have choose to if things were different, but that’s actually a question we’ll never have an answer to, so there is no point speculating

about what if. So at that point, Raelle doesn’t have any reasons to hold on to that relationship, beside that she loves her of course. But that love is the precise reason she is hurting right now (if she didn’t love Scylla, the betrayal wouldn’t have hurt her), and that’s

why she is trying to move on. But make no mistakes, even if she is trying to forgive her feelings for Scylla, it doesn’t mean she will succeed. So yes right now she is being cold to Scylla but it’s because she is suffering and is trying to shut down the pain, and maybe it is
