[@ileanagodinez7767]

this season was surprisingly better than i thought it would be. the characters are more developed and fleshed out than they’ve ever been, even the side characters. devi and nalini’s relationship is easily my favorite part of the show, it’s so special

[@siaj011]

Couldn't have said it better myself

[@youregorgeousts9416]

Agree with everything you said! Especially Devi’s and Nalini‘s relationship 💛💛

i fully expected to be extremely entertained by devi’s terrible decision making this season but she’s demonstrated so much actual growth

Additionally, her kind and friendly nature makes her a complete sweetheart. It's truly a pleasure to have someone like her as a friend! and also is a sweetheart :)
