The Screw Ups [J&A+1] #91: "Juliette Barnes was a regular old fangirl watching you on stage."~Zoey
the screw ups #91 "LOVE IS WANTING TO HELP SOMEBODY BE THE B E S T VERSION OF THEMSELVES." https://68.media.tumblr.com/12e9eb1d...do2_r2_540.png Welcome to the Juliette Barnes♦Avery BarkleyAppreciation Thread [+Cadence Barnes-Barkley] ● ● ● The love story that went from S T R A N G E R S to F R I E N D S H I P to S O U L M A T E S to F A M I L Y STRANGERS they were kindred spirits even when they did not realize it. J u l i e t t e B a r n e s was the girl with who had never known what it meant to be truly loved or chosen as worthy; she looked for validation in her self worth in her career and in men she used. A v e r y B a r k l e y was the guy who would do anything to garner success in his music career. The first time these two interact is in the pilot, backstage at the Opry. Juliette turns the corner and bumps into Avery with a force that knocks them both over a little. Complete strangers, and yet they take notice of the other, as Juliette stuns him still with her cheeky "We should try that again sometime, only s l o w e r." They don't even know each other's names, but they might as well be the only two there. Juliette continues to suffer heartbreak after heartbreak, looking desperately for proof that love exists. Avery continues to look for love and validation through his music. They move on separate paths at neck-breaking speeds, until they both reach the end of their roads. Juliette finds out her manager and love had conned her out of a great sum of money, and Avery burns his masters and gets blacklisted around Nashville. They both have no one to turn to. Out of desperation, Avery joins Juliette's tour as a roadie, sinking into invisibility until by chance he gets called upon by Juliette to fill in as her guitar player. And though they are still strangers, he sets the precedent that he will be there for Juliette in her time of need. Even after the performance, he sits with her as she gets drunk and tells him that fairytales don't exist. Her guard is down, and he is able to see her brokeness; she doesn't hide it from him. And when she asks him to come home with her, he refuses, creating a bond of trust that neither realize the weight of at the time. [Season 1] http://41.media.tumblr.com/dc548d3ee...u6npo1_500.jpg One of the best things to happen on Nashville has been the pairing of Avery and Juliette. They're the shining light on the series at this point and are simply delightful in every way. Their chemistry is real and they have staying power. It's terrific the way they support each other without jealousy...what makes Avery and Juliette work so well is they're the two characters who have grown more than any others. Their arcs have been from spoiled and nasty brats to mature and kind-hearted adults. They understand each other completely." http://41.media.tumblr.com/bf57936ea...u6npo2_500.jpg theshippers honoraryshippers http://38.media.tumblr.com/d9921d797...u6npo1_250.gifhttp://31.media.tumblr.com/1b2999b7b...u6npo9_250.gif http://37.media.tumblr.com/01b50cb8d...u6npo2_250.gifhttp://38.media.tumblr.com/3fd9cd378...u6npo4_250.gif http://33.media.tumblr.com/bfd86fbc0...po7_r1_250.gifhttp://31.media.tumblr.com/fbcf7923e...u6npo6_250.gif http://38.media.tumblr.com/42049be42...u6npo5_250.gifhttp://31.media.tumblr.com/46df4fbb1...u6npo3_250.gif http://33.media.tumblr.com/e63d5d3c8...o10_r1_250.gifhttp://31.media.tumblr.com/7cb26f2df...u6npo8_250.gif • • • "She's finally in a relationship with somebody that she actually really, really cares about and it's one that was born out of a friendship.

Ok so normally I wouldn't double post but since it was just the opening post and not my own thoughts I will post again.
Here is the thing. This storyline has the potential to be great if they go into the supportive of each other's career and being strong couple angle. If they don't then it goes to not so good. I am going to hold on to what Hayden said about having a huge monologue she filmed and hoping that it is for a J/A scene in either 508 or 509 (cause at this point I will be shocked if we get anything in 507). I am just disapointed at how Juliette and Avery are written as individuals and a couple. Juliette has always been the more open affectionate one while Avery there pratically had to be drama for him to admit his feelings. These are not the people we have onscreen right now. We have ice cold self protective Juliette and fortune cookie Avery. And these people used to be best friends. They were open about everything with each other so Avery not talking about his career with her right now makes zero sense. He would want to share that success with her. Avery has to have his career while proving once and for all that they can be worlds apart yet he is still with her and in love with her. I am hoping that the look Avery gave Juliette in church, seeing how happy she was made him fall in love with her more and I am hoping he is her rock while still not neglecting himself. I want her to push him the right way for his career while still finding time to be there for each other emotionally and physically. And I need them to actually talk about their future. Do they want to get remarried, do they see themselves having more kids down the line, etc. |
I've given up on them writing Javery with any kind of depth so if they do get anything right I will be pleasantly surprised.
I am thinking Juliette will find the card, hope too that the story is a positive one in that she becomes the one to encourage Avery in his career because at the moment it is all so one way. Poor Avery is reduced to telling her he will be there every episode whilst she just snaps at him and tells him he won't stay. Maddie and Clay have had endless conversations about their relationship already why can't we get that. What was the exact point they were driving home by having the church scenes with Avery singing in the background? I wasn't sure if it was to show them heading in different directions or something else? |

And I did like the scene when they arrived at church Avery was on another level of gorgeous and so protective of Juliette it was sweet. So so over the church though. Other questions that come to mind - f Juliette is so serene why is she snapping Avery's head off every time they get a scene together. Also since the sex in 504 they have had no scene where they are close apart from Avery touching her shoulder in the bathroom, why does it feel as if Juliette does not want to touch Avery. I mean come on girl how can you possibly resist :lol: |
Quote:
I have no idea why she's snapping at him like that. And I hate that she's doing it. She shows him NO affection at all. They might as well be Scarlett and Gunnar except they're having sex - I presume. We really don't know. That might have been a one off thing. |
Quote:
When Avery says 'What is going on here' I'm thinking yes please tell us Juliette because I have no idea either. And his 'oh my god' response to the unhappy line is literally my reaction too !! |
Well he was getting dressed in her bedroom, so I assume they're sleeping together all the time now.
I thought we had a breakthrough with Juliette a couple eps ago where she admitted she needed him. Yet she's still snapping at him for no reason, and you guys are right, she isn't affectionate at all. And honestly, I'm getting tired of hearing Avery tell her how beautiful/amazing/etc. she is. While she snaps at him and never pays him a compliment. In the beginning it was because she had just had the accident, but why is she still being that way. It's making Avery look really weak as a character. |
Quote:
I hope this isn't what's meant by Hayden saying Juliette would still have extreme moments. I would wish for IN character extreme moments. ETA: Crystal, I thought we had a breakthrough as well. But I guess not. |
I still hate that their one conversation at home is all about her and not one mention of his gig.
Hey, have we seen that head-nodding scene yet from the previews that aired before teh season premiere? I still wonder what that is about. |

Oh I don't know but I think I'm not going to like it ! |
^They were definitely contrasting Avery's somewhat defensive, maybe angry, alt-rock "Won't Back Down" song against Juliette's church-going, beatific gospel experience with a preacher and a choir. I just don't know where they're going with this. Why can't they both have what they want? Why do the two things have to be in conflict.
And what exactly is Avery not backing down about? His career? |
