The alternate ending for Villanelle & Eve

I love drawing villanelle!

been thinking about villanelle lately (◡ ‿ ◡ ✿)

I’ve come to realize it’s not Laura Neal’s right or job to give us unsolicited feedback on what the end of Killing Eve is after it aired.

It was her job to put something on screen and she ended it on a cliffhanger. It’s the fan’s job to create an ending they want. Write your own damn ending!

So taking the ending we were given- If you want to believe Villanelle was saved and Villaneve are living happily, you can. If you want to believe they’re murder wives, you can. If you want to believe she’s really gone & Eve is on the revenge mission, you can.

Laura Neal isn’t the creator of Killing Eve. It isn’t her original idea. She was tasked with an ending and she gave an ambiguous one. Everything she keeps adding in these interviews is her own fanfiction.

❁ villanelle lockscreens

❁ like if you use/save

so jodie was asked how she dealt with the ending of killing eve and she said “crying like a baby”

They kissed. Finally.

You’ve got this strange effect on me… and I like it

The Two of Cups is always a welcome card. In this image of lovers coming together, there is no mistaking that romantic adventure is the order of the day. One tenderly reaches for the other, and both are already so dizzy with limerence that they appear to be totally checked out…. If the Two of Cups has come into your sphere, you are very likely in love…. You will learn something from this love affair (or one-sided, desperate crush), and it will change you. Even if you end up among the one percent who feel keen pain from this card, ultimately you won’t regret it. You are learning something valuable: that you can love. You can hit emotional highs (and lows, yes). You finally understand what all those songs and movies and books are about. Welcome to the club, and when I say, enjoy it while it lasts, I’m not trying to be a killjoy. It’s just that you never know with these things. So stay in the moment, take it all in, love your heart out…. These relationships are destined to last a long time, so only sign on with people who fill your heart with joy or certainty.

-Excerpt from ModernTarot by Michelle Tea

The Hanged Man represents all situations in which you’ve put yourself somewhere on the spectrum between slight discomfort and deep pain, and you’ve done it consciously because you know at the end of your bondage a new and improved reality awaits you. The card can represent undertaking a yoga regimen or any new physcial endeavor that puts your body through the ringer but does something for your spirit in the process…. When the Hanged Man shows up, retreat is recommended. Perhaps you have come to a point where the only way for you to get what you truly want is to give up something else. You’ve weighed the choices, you’ve made your choice and decided it’s worth the effort, and you’re settling into your self-imposed purgatory. Aspire to do your time like the Hanged Man does his: relaxing into the discomfort of it (look at the lax bend of that leg!), not dwelling on what you’ve lost but anticipating what lies ahead (a peek at his facial expression shows a radiant acceptance). Sometimes what you need to give up are assumptions, or ways of thinking…. Whatever it may be, the discomfort you feel will be proportional to your inability to let go of it. The heart of the Hanged Man is surrender, letting go. If you’ve accepted that there is no way around letting go of what you need to let go of, you’ll be ready to endure the deprivations and discomfort of your sacrifice with his egoless charm.
