Sometimes fans are drawn to specific couples on television because we want relationships like theirs, or see a bit of ourselves in their connection. But because it is television, these couples are often on the rocks and if you have ever thought “you know what that couple is missing? ME!” then this is the imaginary lark of the day in quiz form for you!

Eve and Villanelle!
I think it was the European travel question that did it, which is also making me reconsider all future holidays as needing a false identity component.
well you know what they say, “why go on holiday as yourself when you could go on holiday as somebody else?”
Yeah, I figured I was heading that way too as soon as I thought, yeah, traveling across Europe on false pretenses sounds fun.
Did I “pick” Eve and Villanelle because I have BPD, chaos is my safe space, and I have an addiction to solving the problems said chaos creates?
Yes I did.
Did I cackle and scream “Of course I did!” when I instead got Bette and Tina?
Also yes.
10/10. 100% accurate.
in dreams begin responsibilities
van and tai. they want me for my love of pop culture from 40 years ago…they need me for my girl guide skills
good 2 know your strengths!
Eve and Villanelle? I haven’t seen Killing Eve yet, but sure.
So, my soulmates are fictional? Yeah, that sounds like my “love life.”
sometimes we need fiction to reveal the deeper truths
I’m joining Bette and Tina cause their relationship was not messy enough
hear hear!
I knew I was going to get Bette and Tina within a couple questions of this quiz. 🤣
it happens to the best of us
Bette and Tina? Why? Because I want modern art over sneakers as a key feature in my living space?
BTW, it’s ‘lasagna,’ not ‘lasanga.’ Whichever question that was.
but sneakers ARE modern art
Bracing myself to get Bette and Tina (worried my love of modern & contemporary art and babies would seal the deal) but totally delighted to get Carson & Greta!! Please don’t tell then I have a terrible arm.

Yay, I got Carson and Greta! I am shit at all sports but I will be their most enthusiastic cheerleader.

Breaking news: my wife and I both got Carson and Greta. Baseball wives polycule here we come
