The latest clip has made me so hopeful that we're going to see a queer Moiraine in the show. I will actually cry if that happens.

I think Moiraine and Siuan both being Bi would be amazing

I really, really hope that we see some MxM relationship(s). It would be great if they made Galad bisexual or gay. Or one of the bigger characters.

I think it's too early for Jocasta's suggestion, so at this point (and given the leaked still), I think Morgana is likely right. Goddess above I cannot wait to see this! I'm going to scream!

She definitely whispered Siuan’s name while she was semi-conscious.

I wouldn't have caught it if I didn't have subtitles on!

and in the inn with Mat and Rand, the suggestion that they might be gay was just a normal suggestion like that was a completely valid option

I was thinking about the filming/casting for seasons 2-3 that we're starting to hear about. Definitely too early to see it, but maybe not too early to start hearing about it.

Min does say that her study is furnished with things you'd find in an average Tairen fisherman's hut, so I like it too ^_^

ETA:

I just finished watching the Dusty Wheel's interview with Kelly the casting director. Based on the entire conversation, this is what I've walked away with:
I think this is how we ended up with Kae, a nonbinary person, playing Min, and I think it means Elayviendha is even less of a pipe dream than it has been.

There’s a non-binary person playing Min??!!! Oh, sweet goddess above, this is better than I could have hoped for! Y’all, dreams really may come true! I’ve always saw Min as gender fluid, if not nonbinary.

Yes! I was telling someone about Min's casting. I don't know if the character will be portrayed as nonbinary but the actor is!

I really appreciate the LGBT moment around the campfire in Liandrin's camp in S1E4.
