I've been thinking about her
You know, I’ve been thinking a lot about what happened: why did they do what they did, was there some logic in it, were we so furious because of the denial, as we were unable to accept the forlorn finale and why did it hurt that much so nobody could recover from it till now.
It’s been two years, guys. Two years of re-reading Luke Jennings books, writing songs and dedicating them to VillanEve, doom scrolling post about them, about all the anger fans still got for Laura Neal and the shitty ending (as Villanelle would say with a sexy Russian accent). 
I was listening to my beloved Unloved soundtrack of course, all this time. I’ve been on their concert in Paris recently and felt euphoric as I was sinking into Eve and Villanelle love story again and again through their divine music. Every word and sound reflected with my whole body and soul – it was ineffable. Every time I listen to “I’ve been thinking about her” it brings me to tears. I genuinely want this song to play at my funeral one day.
Well, I did my best to remain in this state of equanimity and kinda succeed. But a couple of months ago I decided to re-watch KE from season 1 and here is what happened. I happily binge-watched all three seasons and it felt like home – a perfect comfort zone, a way of my escapism. I even discovered a place where they shoot Villanelle’s apartment (here in Paris), I walked there, secretly got into the courtyard – it was AMAZING – visualizing what happened there in the 1st season, remembering their dialogue with Eve – “I think about you all the time” and stuff. It was comme la presence de Villanelle and I felt so happy and inspired there.
Lately I realised that I’ve been struggling, not wanting to re-watch the goddamn last season. Why the fuck it was so hard? I just can skip the last 5 minutes and et voilà – it would be just perfect. Plus dearest Luke Jennings has been writing and posting his new book about Villanelle and Eve (RESURRECTION) since November 2023, so we know that in his book they got their happy ending and their love story goes on, so it’s good news, right? We have something to rely on “more rock than sand” and it sounds so easy…
But frankly it’s not – I couldn’t pretend I did not see it – the ending they’ve made. I didn’t want to be in this denial any more. I was so angry, I didn’t want to go through it again. But I wanted to see the kiss, to feel their love, to embrace this fucking finale as well. The mixed up feelings were bothering me much so I decided to contemplate on them more, to write this down and here’s what I got.
For me this show, the VillanEve story, was very personal. And it started way long before the book. The book was a cure to find my peace AFTER I watched the ending, so I think it is what it is: the show is one thing and the book is another. I cannot pretend they are the same, like “Villanelle’s death was never meant to be in the book so fuck Laura Neal and her interpretation”. It’s fucking painful but I need to admit it – they ruined my favourite show, something I really loved and I feel so miserable I cannot simply rewatch it from time to time (like Twin Peaks for instance) to feel cheerful and happy KNOWING what awaits me in the end. It’s not a comfort zone anymore, it is a pure Hélène style torture. 
I’ve never felt so attached to the heroes before. I mean, I watch a lot of tv shows and movies, and I easily emphathysise to every story I love. But THIS was different. It was a mind-blowing love-journey, irrational, psychotic, driven, crazy, fun, epic, passionate, surreal, iridescent and QUEER. I NEVER felt so seen and understood on the deepest level by just WATCHING the show. VillanEve resonates with my personal life and fantasies and I was glad that I found it. I’m more of a visual person, so it was crucial for me to be able to WATCH it, to see the performance of Sandra and Jodie and their desperate game with unresolved sexual tension where should, no, MUST have been the glorious end game. The happy ending for them and for all of us. Not just us queers, but all the people.
This show was twisted, sexy and fun from the very beginning – thanks to ingenious Phoebe Waller-Bridge. And it should have stayed like that and ended like that. It shouldn’t have to be a torture. It’s not Game of Thrones for christ sake. Besides, the story of The Twelve was screwed up too, and I will explain why.
We have a lot of this political shit in life already. Right parties, fucked up capitalism, like Russian government and its dictature. It’s no fun guys, this is really frightful and disastrous. So I believe we people do need some kind of an inspiration, a hope in the shows we watch – so we can take this hope to our lives and keep it, lean on it. In dark times like this it would be really helpful and right – so they should have caught the The Twelve gang and crush it, end it for good. But they (producers) fucked it all up so it’s quite impossible to be unfucked. 
They ruined the VillanEve AND the fiction fantasy itself. It was the Author and the Twink death at once. Why not choosing an open ending if you had no idea how to end the show? The open final is always a good way, for me it’s all about respecting your audience. Think David Lynch way. Open endings give you a possibility to rewatch the show and come up with new ideas and interpretations. But they screw this one too.
So no, I think will never accept the finale. I will be grieving for a long long time. Until some director or a show runner who loves VillanEve as much as I do, makes a come-back to fix this shit.

the "it would be depressing for eve to die" remark irks me. eve had been blindly chasing after certain death for 4 seasons & made numerous mentions of not caring if she dies or hoping she dies yet killing her would be depressing? but it's not depressing to kill a character who is trying to be better and expresses wanting MORE out of life from the very beginning of the show only for her to just barely graze happiness and be killed shortly after. THAT is what pisses me off the most

I finally watched season 4 of Killing Eve recently. And as a whole, I did not hate it. Lots of good things and fun bits, and great work from the cast. But the last 30 minutes was just unacceptable.

(That's how I reacted in the theater when I heard him 😂)
Edited because I think the animal is a pangolian, however it's spelt 😂 pangoliOB

Wish I had time to hone adequate gif-making skills which would be easier if I wasn’t packing to move
Because I personally feel like there should be a series-spanning, comprehensive gifset of Tom Paris Doing Medic Stuff and there isn’t and I don’t have the time/energy/abilities to make one.  :/

OOMURO-KE MOVIE, HUH????
Hello! Do you remember a month or so ago, we got "leaks" or "rumors" of a Yuru Yuri Season Four? I didn't talk about it because it was just a rumor! I'm not gonna get all excited over nothing! I'll need more PROOF than that!
but, just today, I've heard something more believable.. and with more evidence...
that THAT.. is an OOMURO-KE MOVIE!
here's why I think the rumors are true:
Well first off, if you don't know what Oomuro-ke is, let me quickly explain. Oomuro-ke is a spinoff to YuruYuri about Sakurako and her family. It's manga came out in 2012 (that's when YuruYuri season 2 came out!), and, despite a long break in the middle, it's still running to this day alongside Yuruyuri!
so there were lots of talks about "which'll come first? YuruYuri season 4? or an oomuro-ke anime?" but an oomuro-ke MOVIE? I didn't expect it, but it made sense.
think about the last time YuruYuri had a break, 2013! we didn't get anything! and what happened when it returned? Nachuyachumi! which, as far as YuruYuri goes, is considered a movie! Nachuyachumi came in with it's new studio, and then the year after, San☆hai was out!
and what's happening now? yuruyuri hasn't gotten any new animated content since 2019. that's 4 years! and if you don't count yryrten, that's 2015 which is EIGHT YEARS
which is to say, we're long overdue for new YuruYuri content, and what better way to come back than a movie and then a new season?
I don't think it's a coincidence that the rumors have come out at the same time. they must be planning something!
New animated yuruyuri stuff, no matter what it is, means new songs! new albums! I can buy more stuff! updates to the yuruyuri websites! more STUFF!!!!! suffice to say, I'm SUPER EXCITED AAAAAA SDAIODOIJASODI AYESSSSSSS PLSPLSPSL I NE END ADIJO AODIJ AOIEJGWEG
anyways, I hope that Oomuro-ke and Yuruyuri s4 come out! I reall do hope!

Something is rotten at the "Heart of the TVA"
Something is rotten at the "Heart of the TVA"
Last week Miss Minutes (MM) confessed her real motives for helping Victor, Sylvie spared the Kang variant so he could potentially save the TVA, and Ravonna was promised a big reveal. This week Ravonna learns she was Kang’s #2 until he had her memories erased. MM enlists her help in taking over the TVA, and running it without the man (girl power!), so they go back to recruit Dox and her minutemen…
