Day 47 and first of three 2x06 breakdowns on my favourite #WynonnaEarp duos.

First up, and because it looks like there was a lot of bro-time at the weekend - the enduring gift that keeps on giving that is the WynHaught Brotp https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="๐Ÿ˜Ž" title="Smiling face with sunglasses" aria-label="Emoji: Smiling face with sunglasses"> https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="๐Ÿ’™" title="Blue heart" aria-label="Emoji: Blue heart"> https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="๐Ÿค " title="Cowboy hat face" aria-label="Emoji: Cowboy hat face">

I don& #39;t know why I love Nicole& #39;s "Sorry girl I got nothing" line so much.

But I really really do. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="๐Ÿ’œ" title="Purple heart" aria-label="Emoji: Purple heart"> It& #39;s something of the tone, or feeling, for their evolving professional and personal relationship.

Not to say that Wynonna desperate for work is cute af https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="๐Ÿ˜ƒ" title="Smiling face with open mouth" aria-label="Emoji: Smiling face with open mouth">

And of course this scene at the end of the show is absolutely pivotal.

Not only showing us what we all already know about Nicole - that lil& #39; Miss Pleat in her Pants will gladly set a raging bonfire to regulation when it& #39;s Waverly in danger. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="๐Ÿ˜" title="Smiling face with heart-shaped eyes" aria-label="Emoji: Smiling face with heart-shaped eyes">

But the crucial moment for me is that when Wynonna tells her to go after Tucker whilst she goes save her sister - Nicole *agrees*.

That& #39;s HUGE, you guys. Nicole has always respected Wynonna, and recognised her innate heroism - but to trust her with this? BIG fucking deal.
And that line of Wy& #39;s - and Nicole& #39;s almost childishly happy grin of acknowledgement, makes my heart go boom boom.

We& #39;re given to understand Nicole as always the responsible one, one of the & #39;adults& #39; in any room she& #39;s in.

When& #39;s the last time, if ever, she& #39;s been in a gang? https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="๐Ÿ˜ƒ" title="Smiling face with open mouth" aria-label="Emoji: Smiling face with open mouth">
Okay, but this scene. THIS scene, you guys.

I apologise for the gif-splurge, but. I just really REALLY love this scene.

Pregnancy is usually shown on TV as this holy, sacred, spiritual and life-crowning event.

And yeah, I& #39;m sure it is all those things. At times.

But that& #39;s usually the only perspective we& #39;re ever granted. And...is it too harsh to say, sometimes it feels...almost fetishized?
How much do I love therefore the micro-acting that conveys the rush of emotional communication that flashes between these two women who have grown to trust (and love) each other.

Nicole& #39;s immediate instinct: pull the door to, give Wynonna her privacy.

Second: does Waverly know?
And these lines are only a fraction of what their faces are saying.

It& #39;s all, Wow, and Congrats, and Are you okay?, and Not the best timing eh?, and, Tell me about it, but whatcha gonna do.

It& #39;s huge - but it& #39;s not absolutely everything. So I love Nicole& #39;s simple & #39;okay& #39;.
And Wynonna loves it too.

It just feels very real, and very very female. All the mums I& #39;ve ever known have not changed who they are, not fundamentally. So I love this little flash of female support. Totally different to the ways in which Doc and Dolls basically lose their shit.
But of course. It& #39;s #WynonnaEarp, and it& #39;s Nicole and Wynonna - so there is always, always, time for a little bit of parting female friendship trash talk. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="๐Ÿ˜„" title="Smiling face with open mouth and smiling eyes" aria-label="Emoji: Smiling face with open mouth and smiling eyes">

I know I keep saying this - but
#FightForWynonna for the representation of all sorts of stories we never get to see! https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="โค๏ธ" title="Red heart" aria-label="Emoji: Red heart">
