anyways ranting more about taras grief and more here bc it’s late and i have a lot of thoughts:
1. it pisses me off that the writers did NOTHING with the grief like this is all my interpretation(?) based on what LITTLE we got (tara mentioning wanting to move on). Because there is sooooo much more they could’ve donr but whatever
2 my tara did ballet when she was younger hc (mentioned it before but twitter limit sucks)
she started when she was 5 or something and sam would try to be there as much as possible to support her, amber was also there sometimes (mainly after sam left but tara quit right after bc shes sad) and tara would try to help amber when she fell AND then after amber got up they would giggle about it bc they’re having fun.
3. when sam first left tara would stay up all night waiting for her because in her mind sam always came back and she would this time aswell (spoiler she didn’t)
Because of that tara would get barely any sleep but it’s okay because she had amber (until she didn’t) and they would watch the barbie movies together to stay awake (amber didn’t think that sam was coming back but she did it for tara)
sorry this is long hkhgjlhgk
(I have more to say but)

omgomg i love all of these ,, and HEAVY on the grief part. the scream franchise lacks on covering the characters going through grief in general though, so im not tooo surprised. i know they’re prioritizing the other stuff in their movies and that it can’t always be realistic all the time.. but it would’ve been nice to see mindy also mourn anika for maybe a few minutes? like, i can see why tara would suppress her emotions for amber. her best friend turned out to be a serial killer and it’s been about a year (however i’m not rlly saying that she would’ve got rid of all that grief in what i’d say a short amount of time) but i can’t believe mindy saw her own gf get killed, be sad about it for a couple minutes and then act like nothing happened? idk… i guess im too picky abt it bc i know they probably cant flesh a proper grieving scene with the limited screen time they’ve got but lordd. anyways, i love the barbie movies hc!!
