This is probably common knowledge that my space-case reclusive ass just learned recently. I am a Killing Eve/Codename Villanelle fanatic, how did I miss this? 🤨 Anyway, Luke Jennings wrote a new Villanelle novella in installments on Substack where Villanelle did not die and she and Eve are living in St. Petersburg. He wrote it because,
“Villanelle, for all her winning ways, is a homicidal psychopath, and transgressive characters often come to a sticky end on the screen. There’s a long history in film and TV of the same treatment being meted out to one or both members of same-sex couples, a trope known to LGBTQ+ audiences as Bury Your Gays. Killing Eve’s fanbase was, and is, acutely attuned to such issues. I know this because many of them have contacted me. The Killing Eve universe is their escape, they tell me, and Villanelle their heroine. Not because she murders people, but because she’s powerful, she’s her own creation, and she goes through life doing exactly as she choses.
The TV series ending, in which Villanelle is shot by a sniper and falls dying into the Thames, came as a shock to emotionally invested fans, and they were not slow to voice their feelings. Social media lit up with their distress, not for days, but for weeks. All over the world, makeshift shrines to Villanelle appeared, with flowers, heartfelt messages, stills from the TV show, and copies of my books. A group of fans crowdfunded a billboard in central London, protesting at “the trope”. As Villanelle’s creator, this was weird, touching and extraordinary, and I felt I had to react.”
- Luke Jennings from an article in The Guardian in 2023
It’s called Killing Eve: Resurrection and is available on his Substack page for free. He also wrote a new installment after called Killing Eve: Bloodline. I’m just gonna leave the 1st link in case anyone missed it and so I can find it again easily if I need to for some reason. I am almost finished with the last book, then I am starting on these. He has a lot of other cool posts on his account.
Nat and Lottie found Laura Lee in their afterlife wilderness realm! No sign of anyone else yet.
Nat ended up not giving a shit that Lottie re-named the Pit that she found when she died, “Pitseleh” (the name Nat gave him) to “LL Bean” in honor of Laura Lee and also because the puppy is adorable. A few weeks later, they found Laura Lee in a small but nice shelter miles out while exploring. They found a few more cabins and houses but no more people. So now the 3 of them stay wherever they want and do whatever they want. Anything they need eventually shows up. They are still figuring out how the realm works, but they are happy and thriving.
(I already made the whole piece and posted it when I first got on Tumblr. I just added in Laura Lee this morning.)
With Abigail, sort of.

20s. Very gay. She/her. 🎨 🎶📺📚🎮🎬🎭🪬Obsessions could be anything. I am starting to write fan fiction again after some time away. Currently working on a Yellowjackets fic and a Killing Eve fic with OCs. I am a really bad digital artist but I am working on that. Music keeps me going. I am here for escapism, inspiration, and creativity.
