If you’re still in your feelings over the way HBO’s Euphoria came to a close after the first season, you’re definitely not alone. In fact, Hunter Schafer is right there with you.

In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, the Euphoria star revealed that she was really mad at her character, Jules, for leaving Zendaya’s Rue behind in the train station. “I was really mad at Jules for that,” Hunter admitted. “You don’t leave your friend-slash-lover alone in a train station at 1 a.m.”

But Hunter also thinks that Jules deserves a little slack; after all, she’s only a teenager and still figuring a lot of things out — as are the rest of the characters on the popular HBO series. “At the same time, she’s 17 and has been through this crazy sh*t and she needs to get out,” Hunter said of Jules’s desire to run away and start over. “I know where that all is coming from. She felt really stuck and Nate [Jacob Elordi] has been manipulating her and forcing her literally to do crime. And then Rue was sort of suffocating her. It was all too much.”

Hunter went on to say that as much as Jules and Rue deeply care for one another, Rue’s well-being and safety can’t be Jules’s responsibility. “She can’t save Rue,” she emphasized. “She can’t be Rue’s savior.”

This isn’t the first time that Hunter has opened up about her character in recent weeks; earlier this month, she talked with Arca for V Magazine about how Jules was, in part, modeled after her own experiences. “I know she has dreams, [many of] which she stated in the first episode,” Hunter said. “Which is just what I did in a way: escaping to New York, and working or interning in fashion...And that was [part of the character] before I was even cast, so it was really freaky to see that written into the script. So, I feel like that’s definitely her path.”

Whether you’re rooting for Rue and Jules to rekindle their relationship or hoping each of them forges their own independent journey, it doesn't seem like it’ll be too much longer before Euphoria returns into our lives. Storm Reid, who plays Rue’s younger sister Gia, recently told Entertainment Tonight that season 2 will begin filming in the near future. “We’re getting scripts soon,” she revealed. “Table reads are coming. I’m on the edge of my seat, because I have no information other than my character is supposed to be developing and becoming her own. I am very excited about that.” Same, same, same!
