I think rewatching S2 of SL specifically is such a conflicting experience when you're a multishipper like me.

Let me explain: I think Simbar is the best endgame ship, obviously. They are amazing. However, for LUNA, I dislike her endgame and I think the show did a MUCH better job showing why she should be with Simón instead.

Now, in season 1, that is Lumón's season. I watch their relationship grow, how they get closer, how they date and it's amazing at first but then it doesn't work out, but it's ok, because they are closer than ever from this experience <333

In season 3... they have scarred me for life for what they did with Lumón, but every time I watch that season, I also just get through it and move on, and I focus ALL on Simbar instead. Simbar is *chef's kiss* in S3. (for people wondering, you know how your reactions to the 3x10 scene is either cheering or crying? For me, it was burying my head in the couch and wondering what the fuck to feel because I felt BOTH).

But season 2... gosh. The first half, we got Lumón just being best friends, and it's amazing. They had a really good scene in 2x10 that could have been the conclusion to their love story. But then you watch more and more of the season, and you're shown time and time again how Simón just ALWAYS makes her happy, ALWAYS cheers her up, and Matteo just... does not. And when he does, he soon screws up again. And who is there to comfort her when he screws up? Simón. Not to mention they STILL do the "ooh who will Luna choose" thing for the majority of the season.

But then Simón and Ámbar's relationship starts to blossom! And it's adorable! You get it, you get into it! Ámbar if anyone really deserves to have a good relationship. And !! YEAH !!

And then it gets so conflicting because these three are all on your top list of favorite characters, and you want all three of them to be happy, but Simón can't date both of them, Lumbar which is also a ship I used to be into before S3 bonked me with a newspaper can't be together either, and when you advocate for one of them it feels like you gotta advocate for the other too. And you wonder if you should just not care about shipping and just focus on them as a trio on how amazing their relationships are with each other... but AAAAHHHHH I love Simón and Ámbar but AAAAH I dislike Luna with Matteo and she is way better of with Simón and now he's mad at Ámbar so maybe they have a shot but also I DON'T WANT ÁMBAR TO BE SAD SHE DESERVES HAPPINESS TOO MAYBE ÁMBAR AND EMILIA CAN BE MY MAIN ÁMBAR SHIP BUT EVEN THEN IT'S NOT THE SAME AS SIMBAR-

It's so weird how my feelings change depending on the season I'm watching. If I am watching season 3 (AFTER 3x10) I am fully like "Lumón should just be friends, they will always be best friends and their relationship is really amazing as it is" and "Simbar endgame all the way", and "I still don't like Matteo but now I think Luna should be single instead". And if I am watching S1 it's just "omg Lumón <333"

You'd think I can just have the S3 or S1 mindset when rewatching S2 but NOPE. This show gives me such different feels depending on the season.

This is why I prefer to really focus on Jim and Yam because they never give me any complications and is just Jim and Yam <33

#simbar #lumón #soy luna #i honestly blame a lot of these complications on the first 10 eps of S3 too #if lumón had a CONCLUSION I could have let it go more but they had to spit in my face for no reason #yes I still love simbar but they didn't have to do that with lumón

wait shoot ignore that last ask i sent whoops. i mean 9 and 10 for your violetta rewrite and 15 and 17 for sunshine and moonshine <3

9. How did you get inspired to write this?

There has been so much of this show that I wished would've gone down differently. Storylines, some plots... some endgames...

Many people love the last episode. They say it's a mostly perfect ending (cause most agree, the wedding was not the best). But I didn't feel much of anything. When I watched 1x80? Cried. When I watched 2x80? Cried (though not as much). When I watched 3x80? Meh.

I was fine with most endgames except germangie, but I just wished it all could have looked differently. So what did I have to do to make it end up in my vision? Well, rewrite the show.

Other reasons I wanted to rewrite the show: - I was curious what would have happened if Angie told the truth right away. Told Violetta the second she met her. How would the story change? - What would happen if Diego did not kissed Violetta against her consent? How would the story change? - I see Leonetta in season 3. I can fix it. I can fix them. - Diecesca will still happen, but it will happen the way I want it to. - Esmeralda and Jade need some good writing. - What would happen if Luca, Braco and Napo, as well as Lara stayed around? - There are some ships I wish would be endgame. And I will make them endgame. - Yes, this is an excuse for me to make everything slightly gayer as well.

10. Did you plan to write something that you ended up not writing later? Why?

Okay, so there's a lot because it happens so many times that I have a plan and spontaneously decide "No! What if this happens instead?"

I was planning on giving some more focus on Violetta's diary and it having sort of a symbolism with how she's feeling, as well as who's the most important person in her life at them moment. She was supposed to change her combination on the diary lock to the letters of someone's name or initials. For example, 12-22 is L-V (Leon Vargas) and 6-18-1 is F-R-A (Francesca, Vilu didn't know her last name at the time so she took her three first letters). I also planned on people reading her diary or reading a page of it when she left it open.

I had this idea after the fact that, when I was a child, I was very fixated on this idea I had where I thought it would be romantic if Leon read Violetta's diary (I was 11 and I was new into shipping and couldn't quite handle it), and I was also very fixated on the time in season 2 when Diego picked up her diary on the floor, read one page and then closed it, and I was so enraged how he could READ SOMEONE'S PRIVATE DIARY!!!!!!!!! (the double standards there huh?)

And while some of this diary stuff is present in the beginning, I simply... didn't care a lot about it anymore to continue. So much else was going on.

15. Favorite character to write for?

Well, Ámbar. In the show I was so obsessed with her home life and her relationship with Sharon, and I make all the excuses ever to write about that. It's so fun to write about her thought process and her reflections and everything!

17. Favorite ship to write for?

Ambilia, hands down. But Jam as well, especially now after last chapter hehe...

It's so funny, because right now it's the hardest to write for Lumón and Simbar, which are both ships that are gonna be present. I want it to make sense and be executed good, and it should be easy because I do love both ships and can write for them usually quite well, but not right now apparently.

#thanks for the ask!!
