I couldn't tell you when it started because when I found out it must have been going on for some time, they were too comfortable with eachother for it not to have been something long-term. It was not meant for me to find out (of course) and for the sake of their privacy I really shouldn't have stayed, but the ease in which they moved around eachother, against eachother and with eachother was mesmerising. I just couldn't tear myself away.
There was a moment I thought for sure Yuj was gonna get crushed under the great weight of Gadot's impressive form. I thought he must be suffocating in the cocoon of the largely muscled arms that were often used to scare opponents away but here seemed to bring a feeling of safety to the boy. The sound of his cries and the blissful look on his face spoke clearly, he loved it.
I was mesmerized when they kissed, their mouths melding together perfectly. Yuj's long, slender fingers travelled again and again through the short red hair, mapping out the designs on the side of Gadot's head with familiar certainty. Gadot's thick arms winding around the smaller body, lifting him up. At this point I wished for them to stay, to not care that someone might actually see them on that beat-up old couch in NORA's temporary abode. I understood now why Gadot was so compliant to sharing a room after being a stubborn donkey about his privacy back at Cocoon. But I wonder what their story is. For sure no one else knows, after all Gadot is still a stubborn oaf, nothing's gonna change that, and I can't see him confessing a relationship like this willingly.
I can only hope he will be brave enough to come clean with us one day, family stick together after all.
