Even if the finale ends with her in a Jean Gray/Dark Phoenix sacrifice (which I really hope it doesn’t) it would still be interesting to watch. While it’s going in a familiar direction with the burden of being a goddess, it isn’t tiresome, as Mauve plays it was subtly passion. I don’t know where Julia’s story is going to lead. What does a goddess say? They probably would say what Julia would normally say along with her own person-quest of being a goddess. What do women say?” Then Elaine walks in and they tell her to stop interrupting. But, I think it comes down to the old Seinfeld episode when Jerry and George had to write a woman: “I don’t know. Writers always make Madonnas and goddesses go quiet. While she’s becoming more of a goddess she never loses being Julia. Julia is an example of how trauma can be part of you without defining you. Often when the predator who has caused the trauma is seen in their true weak form, as Reynard was, the feeling a survivor has is not one of anger but weariness.Īs Julia has become more powerful, we still see that trauma never really goes away. They want safety and peace, but they have to fight for it, like are seeing in real life in March for Our Lives. This episode showed that most survivors aren’t going for vengeance.

Most people only focus on trauma survivors who’ve suffered the most, and we forget survivors like Kady who are survivors too. I think the truly most powerful storyline is the callback to Julia and Kady’s trauma with Reynard. The Magicians proves that this is a show for emotionally mature people-and that “soap operas” with emotionally mature characters can work. Furthermore, he’s also in love with another version of my ex-bestie. I really don’t know how I would feel if my boyfriend came back and told me he actually wasn’t my boyfriend but another version of him where we never met.
