anyways not to get emo but seeing a latina come out as bisexual is the dopest thing and i get why people use the umbrella term “woman of color” but i wanna stress that it’s a latina. growing up i never thought i’d see a bi latina on tv and now b99 and stephanie beatriz made that possible and i love them

because no amount of gifs could do this scene justice

Terry: Oh, also, she’s worried about her motorcycle sitting idle so she wants us to take it out once a day. Here.
Holt: I think you should do this. You’re more the biker type. I’ve seen you use a toothpick in public.
Terry: Motorcycles are death machines. I have three kids, I’m not risking it!
Holt: Are you saying my life matters less because I don’t conform to society’s heteronormative, child-centric ideals?
Terry: Are you really playing the gay card right now?!
Holt: Yaas, qween.

  • okay but jake and amy obvi name their first daughter rachel, after nana – the most influential woman in jake’s life. gina is thrilled and thinks it bodes well for her goddaughter’s future as someone infinitely cooler than either of her parents
  • rachel gets shortened really quickly (like before they leave the hospital) to rae – both for ease and for the look on their captain’s face when he’s holding her in the armchair and amy casually mentions that rae’ll prolly get hungry soon
    • there’s def a tear in raymond holt’s eye as he holds his pseudo-namesake in a hospital room, with a sergeant and a detective who are more like his children than his workplace subordinates sitting and watching him. he def pretends it isn’t there. jake pretends his tears aren’t there, either. 
      • kevin shares a knowing look with amy over their respective husbands’ heads. she smiles back, exhausted but endlessly amused by jake’s sentimentality and literally full to the brim with the warmest happiness she’s ever felt
  • rae grows up just as badass as her aunt gina intended, with a healthy dose of nerdiness and competitiveness, courtesy of both her parents. she’s way ahead of the curve academically, and she loves a good superhero movie
  • when she’s five, she watches star wars for the first time – in the order they were made over a rainy week of christmas break, with her baby brother eli in a playpen behind the sofa where she’s curled up with her parents
      • (jake is Shookt bc bail organa looks scarily like a certain father-in-law. amy doesn’t see it)
    • when she watches the force awakens, she spends a solid five hours bouncing around their house screaming that she’s named after the coolest character on the planet
    • then amy, ever honest, explains that it isn’t actually exactly the same, and starts to explain that “we call you r-a-e and she’s r-e-y”
    • the look on rae’s face at the news is so devastated that jake literally rugby tackles amy onto the couch, sticks his head up at his daughter, and says, “mommy was being silly! so silly! your name is r-e-y – just like the most badass character ever!!” 
      • amy elbows him in the side for cursing in front of her offspring
    • jake then has to watch 10000 youtube videos and learn how to do the three-bun ponytail because newly-renamed rey will only wear her hair in that exact style for the next three months. 
  • this is how amy santiago accidentally names her child after a star wars character
