Hi folks my name is thosedangnuns and I'm new to Tumblr! I thought today I'd share some of the things I love about warrior nun - I hope you'll all agree with my viewpoint here 😇 that...
Tumblr media
Beatrice should have left Ava for Lucia (bar girl)
Tumblr media
First - some negatives : While Ava and Beatrice have some kind of a connection (I guess?) it doesn’t appear to be a particularly healthy one. Often, they fight.
Tumblr media
In fact it seems most of their closeness is actually just due to shared trauma. Aside from said trauma there isn’t really a ‘spark’ there - Bea in particular is mostly uninterested.
Tumblr media
Despite that, Ava persists. Here she is trying to gaslight Beatrice with guilt.
Tumblr media
And here she is making Beatrice feel bad about being a good friend - and for caring about her?
Tumblr media
Here she is trying to take advantage of Beatrice (a nun!) by getting her drunk. Does this look like a good roommate? Like a good friend?
Tumblr media
And finally, here Ava combines the two - a guilt trip and rampant alcoholism (plus the vulnerably eyes) - into one soul crushing blow.
Tumblr media
When we meet Lucia, however, we can immediately see how empathetic she is, how she sees Beatrice’s struggle. How she UNDERSTANDS Beatrice and what she's going through.
Tumblr media
Immediately, we see Ava on the defensive - jealous, possessive, and downright mean.
Tumblr media
Despite knowing Lucia for just seconds, Beatrice is ready to open up to her. Perhaps it’s because they share something in common? Troubled, alcoholic friends in their past?
Tumblr media
And unlike Ava, Lucia listens to Beatrice, offering kind and loving advice. There’s already a bond growing. Actual sparkage. From BOTH sides.
Tumblr media
Then in a classic, heartbreaking, example of a ‘cry for help’ - Beatrice tells Lucia how she feels TRAPPED by Ava. And rather than fight. Rather than argue. Lucia comforts.
Tumblr media
Meanwhile Ava, watching form afar, threatens Beatrice by making Beatrice's least favourite drink, an Irish coffee.
Tumblr media
Recognizing the implied threat, and knowing that their short time together might be at an end, Lucia - thinking of Beatrice, not of herself - chooses to offer some kind words. To lift her up.
Tumblr media
...instead of knocking her down, like Ava might.
Tumblr media
In the midst of this moment of compassion - of tenderness - Ava’s boy-toy Miguel arrives.
Tumblr media
And Ava (taking a cue from a departed member of the wn fandom) fakes a medical emergency for attention, then prepares to drag Beatrice away from what might be the love of Beatrice’s life.
Tumblr media
Realizing that their moment is over, Lucia offers some final words to Beatrice, who thanks her quickly not knowing (not being used to) how to respond to such kindness.
Tumblr media
In short I think that the wn fandom has been blinded by Ava’s (admitted) good looks and (questionable) charm.
Tumblr media
Completely ignoring the fact that while Beatrice has been trying to rebuff Ava’s advances for like a season and a half.
Tumblr media
And in the end... It took Lucia all of like 90 seconds to break down Beatrice’s closely guarded walls, and it’s grossly selfish and unfair of Ava to deny Beatrice a chance to be with what could be the love of her life. - Thank you for reading my innocent warrior nun thoughts please read a little more about Lucia (Ella Kweku) here. And check out the original tweeting of this piece here. It's lovely being here on Tumblr you all have made me feel very welcome 🤗!

Synopsis
Segovia, 1559. Lucía de Avellaneda celebrates her engagement party with the Marquis of Peñarrosa, a nobleman chosen by her brother. This marriage promises to reinforce the financial and social status of the family, but, in the middle of the celebration, the fiancée receives an unexpected letter from a woman who claims to be her mother and who claims her on her deathbed.
Lucía shows up at the beguinage, where her mother has summoned her. In this place she lives with other women independently and outside the Church. The young woman opens up to a new world that will make her question everything she has known until now. And, furthermore, he will know love through a pure and uncontrollable, but forbidden, passion. He will risk everything for Telmo, a Jewish man who must hide his beliefs and his past.
Main cast and characters
Lucía de Avellaneda (Amaia Aberasturi) Intelligent, curious and combative. Educated and innocent, until her mother's call disrupts her life. In the beguinage she discovers an environment of sorority and critical thinking that revolutionizes her idea of ​​the world and breaks down the walls that her status as a Christian noble woman has imposed on her. When she meets Telmo she feels for the first time an attraction that she has never experienced, but his commitment and loyalty will stop her impulses, determined to fight for what really matters to her.
Telmo Medina (Yon González): Telmo is an attractive, lucid and mysterious young man who hides his Jewish origins. He works in a bakery and supplies the beguinage with what it needs from outside. He doesn't want problems, but he doesn't avoid them either. Loyal, sincere and honest, he cannot help but risk everything for a Christian noble woman.
Marie Anne (Beatriz Segura) Beguine and the successor of The Great Lady, she is wise, strong and enigmatic. Its mission is to protect the beguinage from certain ecclesiastical authorities who fear its independence. Guiding Lucía through the truth, she will help her connect with her mother's spirit and live in the beguinage with other women who, like her, long for a freedom that they cannot find outside. In her past, she loved intensely and had to overcome a traumatic breakup, but that passion is unleashed again, although this time she does not want to repress herself despite the danger of remaining in love with a clandestine and sinful love.
Sibila García (Melani Olivares): A distrustful, surviving and sensitive woman, who grew up in misery and prostitution. Pregnant, she decided to escape and found her place in the beguinage. Her biggest concern is her daughter and, even though she reproaches her for it, she will do everything possible to try to protect her. The succession of Lucrecia is disputed and she competes with Marie Anne for the position of Great Lady.
Guiomar Ruy (Ella Kweku): Nigua, an Antillean slave, was sold to a doctor from Seville who gave her her new name and educated her when he noticed the maid's innate curiosity. She learned the trade of midwife from her mother and cultivated her interest in the human body and botany.

She gets upset with ignorance, prejudice and evil. Shee feels a deep complicity with Gonzalo, the clergyman, a harmony that sooner or later, she will have to give a name to.
Beatriz García (Lucía Caraballo): Daughter of Sibila and one of the youngest of the beguinage. Innocent, happy and lively. Her sexuality is awakening and she enjoys her body with curiosity and without fear until life outside the walls pushes her to hide her most intimate impulses. Her freedom of thought and work contrasts with that of Lucía. She has a relationship with her mother that has ups and downs, but the love they have for each other is above all. Each has a lot to learn from the other.
Juana Aranda (Silma López): Daughter of Sancho, the owner of the workshop, and sister of Lebrín. She enjoys an independence that was uncommon at that time. She has chosen to enter the beguinage to avoid a bad marriage or ending up dependent on his brother. Intelligent, prudent and thorough. She is in love with Telmo, but wants to be reciprocated. He has such a noble heart that his love does not prevent him from empathizing with Lucía and helping Telmo when things go wrong.
Lebrín Aranda (Jonás Berami): Close friend of Telmo, son of Sancho, the owner of the bakery and the only brother of Juana, the beguine. Rogue, generous and lively, he knows how to live avoiding laws, rules and sins.

He will use his best resources to try to save the Beguines from the Inquisition.
Rodrigo de Guzmán, Marquis of Peñarrosa (Javier Beltrán): He is Lucía's fiancé. Castilian nobleman, of ancient ancestry and fortune. He is very well connected and has negotiated with his future brother-in-law to settle his debts and open the doors to him in Court in exchange for this marriage. He loves Lucía, she seems to him the right woman to fulfill her role as marchioness. He is dutiful, splendid and traditional, but he does not hesitate to bring out his most sinister side when his commitment is threatened.
Munio de Avellaneda, Count of Vellaví (Jaime Olías): Lucía's brother and heir to the County, but also to the debts left by his father. He needs to recover privileges and fortune, and his sister's marriage is the perfect deal. Arrogant, irascible and proud. He is willing to do anything to save his lineage and keep up appearances.
Jimena Suárez de Córdoba (Meritxell Calvo): Munio's wife. Intelligent, frivolous and capricious. He hoped to live up to his condition, but the Avellanedas' fortune is in debt and the only thing that can solve it is his sister-in-law's wedding. She will do everything possible to help her husband achieve it. She likes to seduce, get the most out of life and cleverly circumvent the rigid rules that her lineage demands. She won't hesitate to play with fire when she meets Lebrín, a hummingbird who, like her, doesn't want to miss out on the pleasures that life offers.
Catalina (Laura Galán): Lucía's faithful maid. Affectionate, smiling, devout and superstitious, she is torn between loyalty to Lucía and fear of Munio. Lucía, her mistress, and the beguines, who will pay dearly for her ignorance. She will do everything possible to correct her mistakes and ease her conscience.

Gonzalo de Grijalvo (Ignacio Montes): Clergyman related to the beguinate. Intelligent, attractive and empathetic. She admires the Beguines for their devotion and devotion to those in need, but above all Guiomar, with whom he has great complicity.
Father Lasarte (Antonio Durán 'Morris'): A priest with pretensions, whose greatest ambition is to end the privileges of the beguinages and become part of the Court of the Inquisition. Cunning and scheming, he uses fear and ignorance to manipulate the people and get them to demonize these women, inventing falsehoods about them. His main objective is Marie Anne, the Great Lady, whom he cannot defeat.
Commissioner Utrera (Jorge Kent) The executing arm of the Inquisition in Valladolid. Pursue crimes that threaten the power of the Church. He has the beguines in his sights, but knows the risks of attacking them because they enjoy important social support.
