Killing Eve × Indigo Girls • “Lay My Head Down” written by Emily Ann Saliers & Amy Elizabeth Ray from the album, “Despite Our Differences” (2006). I would honestly die for this song. And these two.
Also, I have a Killing Eve fix-fic coming soon! 🚚 😵👻👍
“It’s like a fear takes over my whole body, and then, when it passes, it makes no sense cause it’s like everything’s just fine again. I need a way to feel like something bad happened, or to let it out, you know? Just so I know I didn’t imagine it.”
Artesian, I see you. I hear you. I believe you.
I wish I didn’t relate to McCullough so much. And I wish that quote up there didn’t sound so familiar. That’s why I have this fierce, personal connection to McCullough because she is me, and I am her. And it makes me want to leap across the screen and just protect her.
“No, I don’t want to stop. Selling chargers.”
Okay, hot take, but I did love McCullough with Vause. I guess Piper and Alex were getting too normal, er... domestic? boring? to me that McCullough coming into the picture was very, very, very exciting. But that’s just me. And my penchant for fandom rare-pairs (ahem, Maxon from ALOTO.); and the clandestine. Please don’t come for me, I’m only very weak.
To think Piper was one of my favourites — until seasons five to seven when B. Artesian McCullough came along. And then I was head over heels.
Speech bubble texts:
“I bet you do look like a mermaid with your hair down.”
“You’re not stupid.”
“I don’t want to stop... selling chargers.”
“We’re not doing anything wrong. I’m a prisoner taking a shower; and you’re a C.O. who’s watching me.”
“we got the afternoon
you got this room for two
one thing I've left to do
discover me
discovering you”
Frida & Mia from “Kyss Mig”x sexy John Mayer lyrics.
I was in my late teens, and not yet out when I first saw this beautiful film, I’m 26 now, and I still think this is one of the most beautiful Sapphic films there is out there. A couple of years later, I still have this Big Lesbian Crush™ on Frida. Liv Mjönes is a literal goddess. 🔥
“And then tomorrow, you'll leave me.”
M and Anne from season one, episode one.
Litchfield’s hottest baddie, the woman, the myth, the legend herself... oh, and then there’s Piper. The panty kingpin.
Deborah and Ava from “Hacks” inspired by those kickass posters of Macbeth from The National Theatre of Korea. Been wanting to draw these two for so long... and now I have. Lol.
Carmilla turned 10 this week! 🧛♀️ I was 16 when the series came out! 😳 So here’s a juicy fanart of Hollstein lololol — Carmilla totally regrets ever turning Laura because that woman is insatiable.
This is for the Creampuffs.
“When twilight gleam is in her eye;
The night is on her hair.
And like a love-sick lennanshee,
She hath my heart in thrall.”
“Lamia and the Soldier” by John William Waterhouse, but make them lesbians.
“Do I make you nervous, Corky? Thirsty, maybe?”
“I dream we’re happy in my sleep; floating down, and down, and down.”
An Edwardian lady meets a tattooed mermaid — ay, ay, ay! This Mermay art is inspired by “Riverwide” a wonderful song by Sheryl Crow. A song, at the moment, I’m very much in love with.
Zorro, but make it gay? Idk, but this was inspired by:
a) Melissa Etheridge’s victorianesque red carpet outfit from the 90s. b) Tina Arena (& Marc Anthony)’s duet from “The Mask of Zorro” c) A photo of Lauren Cuthbertson and Vadim Muntagirov from “A Month in the Country” (The Royal Ballet) by Tristram Kenton via Pinterest d) a scene from “The Legend of the Blue Sea” e) Melissa Etheridge’s victorianesque red carpet outfit from the 90s. Oh, I already said that? Melissa Etheridge. Melissa Etheridge. Melissa Etheridge.
(The Book of) Ruth 1:16 | Fried Green Tomatoes
Ruth quotes from The Book of Ruth (Bible, The Old Testament), and that brings back SO MANY memories.
I had a math teacher in high school named Ruth, whom I was madly in love with, so, for English class, I chose “The Book of Ruth” to make an essay of...naturally. Flash forward: I was digging around for my old King James after watching “Fried Green Tomatoes” and I’d forgotten I’d highlighted “The Book of Ruth” and had scribbled a note on the bottom:
“Call me Mara: for the Almighty hath dealt very bitterly with me.” (Ruth 1:20).
Whaddaya make of that? Anyway, as these stories go, Miss Ruth got married later that year, and I was devastated. HAHA. 🤣
“It’s worse when I push it through slowly. Don’t make me.”
Delilah “Panty Dropper” Green [Doesn't Care]
BAE I’m still on page 91, but I had to drop everything and make this cos I’m picturing a mixture of #WynonnaEarp and #CarmillaKarnstein (and yes, Mel and Nat) as Delilah—all broody and kinda mean, super sexy, incredibly hot...literal panty-dropper. Woopsies, there goes mine. Okay, bye, I'm just thirsty.

Dr. Sharpe and Lt. Kelly having a grown-up girl bonding time. Wink-wink, nudge-nudge. Here's my book cover slash fan-art of "Beyond the Blue" by TJ O'Shea. Mei & Morgan currently own my WHOLE body and soul.
Spice level: 🌶 🌶 🌶 .🌶
My song inspo: "You Can Sleep While I Drive" (Live) duet by Melissa Etheridge & Amy Grant. 🔥
Synopsis, babes:
Numbers rule Dr. Mei Sharpe's life. She has no husband, one friend, two daughters, and three random meetings with the same woman within four weeks. Once is chance, twice is coincidence, but upon the third meeting, even Mei in all her empirical rigidness must admit that perhaps the universe is giving her a nudge. A nudge that lands her directly in the path of Lieutenant Morgan Kelly—an affable, charming detective for the Sheriff Department's brand-new cold case team working down the hall from Mei's morgue.
More Golden Retriever than hard-boiled detective, Morgan is determined to pull the asocial widow out of her shell. As the icy scientist warms to her cheerful new friend, an irrepressible chemistry develops, and Mei begins to realize she's perhaps a different number on the Kinsey scale than previously considered.
As Mei and Morgan struggle with guilt and grief, drama and desires, Mei finds her scientific austerity is no match for the universe and its nudges toward the startling revelation of what her heart really wants.
