#thinking about how fatin is so worried about leah's instability and how much she cares about her and how it personally feels diminished#when people ascribe romantic feelings to it...like it feels so much lesser#fatin cares about all the girls so deeply and loves them so fiercely and it's one of the main draws of her to me esp given how it contrasts#with her pre-island self who wouldn't let herself bond with other women because of the effort and emotions it would involve#(I'd argue she doesn't have meaningful relationships with men either but they're 'easier' in that she only seeks those who're content#with just casual sex)#i was open to romantic leatin but the more i rewatch the wilds and the more i see posts from leatin fans the more i begin to dislike it#they way fans treat fatin's relationship to leah...feels like such a disservice to fatin#like relationships in media are supposed to further a character and give them more complexity...leatin feels like it diminishes her#the way fatin treats leah is how she would treat any of the other girls she's bonded with if they were as unstable as her...like god look#at how gently she handles martha and shelby#and i can't get over how fiercely protective she was of rachel (and it KILLS me when people make it out as if her reaction was BECAUSE of#Leah and not like the girl she was actually??? protecting??? her relationship w/ leah plays a role in this ofc but it's so annoying how#quick people ignore Fatin's relationship with Rachel#jfc)#the thing is that martha and shelby have people closer to them so Fatin's not going to be there 100% of the time#meanwhile Fatin and Leah go to the same school so Fatin has this sort of responsibility towards Leah#not that she wouldn't take care of her even without this responsibility but like...Fatin's more obliged to help Leah out due to their#shared background#I'm not looking to lessen Fatin's relationship with Leah tho like from a platonic lens what they have together is so fucking special#but the same thing goes for Fatin's relationships with all the other girls and it literally kills me how 95% of the conversation around her#now is about how she and Leah should get together#at this point Fatin's relationship with literally anyone else is more interesting to me

Why should you watch The Wilds
Tumblr media
What is this show about?
I am guessing by now you have heard people shouting about The Wilds. To put it simply The Wilds is about eight girls who are stranded on a remote island after a plane crash. The Audience quickly finds out that the crash is not an accident and that this is all a sinister science experiment
Is this show like Lost?
Not really. A lot of people describe it as a Lost/Lord of The Flies crossover but this show doesn’t really bother much with over the top mysteries. They exist of course but 95% of the show is about exploring the characters of these amazing eight girls. Their past, their personality, their trauma, their humor. It’s all about the girls and who they are as people, how this experience changes them and helps grow, how they bond, how they face their trauma, how they overcome challenges
Is it gay?
Yes. Very gay. And yes there is as ship for you and it has all the tropes you love.
Ok but this doesn’t sound that  amazing. Why are people raving about it?
Because the writing is absolutely amazing and a complete rollercoaster the kind you get in 300k fanfics you read over and over again. You will change your opinion on the girl half a dozen times, you will love them, you will hate , you will be angry , you will adore them, you will want to hug them you will cry happy tear and the character growth
Ok but where could I find this show?
It’s on Amazon Prime and all torrents and streaming sites :) But if you want to do it legally Amazon has uploaded the first episode on Youtube

So tell me about the girls
My pleasure
Tumblr media
Our heroes are :
Fatin Jadmani
You will absolutely fall in love with Fatin. She is charming beyond belief. She is girl who is completely comfortable in her skin, who is not ashamed of her sexual desires, who doesn’t take shit from anybody. While at first glance she appears as this rich shallow girl you will quickly fall in love with her
Toni Shalifoe
is a girl who had a very hard life and has serious anger issues. She runs hot and often lashes out at the slightest provocation but she is also fiercely protective of her friends. She is also very gay and full of pride. She takes shit from nobody and can be extremely cocky . She is best friends with
Martha Blackburn
Martha is sweetest bean. She is always kind and willing to help. Despite the bad things that have happened she always believes in the good in people.
Shelby Goodkind
She is a very sweet and kind who grew up in a scary and represserive christian cult which has given her some extreme issues with how she sees herself
Dot Campbell
had a very hard life and had to spend the last few years taking care of her sick father. She was also obsessed with watching Survivor shows so she takes the lead and tries to use her TV knowledge and translate it into real survival
Nora and Rachel Reid
are sisters and twins but they couldn’t be more different. Rachel is a hardcore athlete who trains obsessively to the point of self abuse while Nora is an extremely intelligent girls with several social anxiety
Leah Rilke
is a girl just coming out of a very messed up relationship. She has a deeply obsessively personality that often drives her near the edge of paranos and a nervous breakdown but she is also a very determined and empathetic girl
Anything else? Yes just like with Motherland Fort Salem and  and Warrior Nun this is a female centric so bitter and homophobic incels are bombing the ratings. So go and vote for the show when you finish https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8633062/
