Surely must be a coincidence that the journalist who wrote that Vulture article is one of the people Casey Bloys follows on Twitter and surely it’s a coincidence that article came from Vulture which is owned by Vox Media who acquired GroupNineMedia in 2022 and one of the investors for the merger was Warner Bros Discovery. I love coincidences.

Oh SURELY… ☕️👀

You know that one part in S2 where Buttons is reading the transmogrification papers that Auntie gave him? And he’s like “Ohhhhh, aye. OHHHHHH AYE 👁️👁️.” yeah. Yeah.

I really do think it’s very intense damage control, to be quite honest lmao. Buuuuut who are they fooling REALLY? Certainly not any of us; especially with all these ✨juicy little tidbits✨ afoot.

#Answered #Anons #Oh bloys he mad #WKDKWKDKW that hashtag still takes me out like Please #But they’re so skdjwjdjw WHACK man #I cannot tell you how unsurprised yet irate I was when Casey was like #’yeah so we’ll give whatever money it takes to beautify the hp reboot uwu’#’and might even extend the scope BEYOND the movies uwu’#Like mmmmmmmmm yeah lmao alrighty #Cancels numerous diverse originals but will say that within the same breath #ALRIGHT #It just shows you where their priories lie

They cancelled The Serpent Queen and I am so fucking mad!!

I'm french and guess where do I live? In the Loire Valley!! My hometown, Vendôme, is where The House of Bourbon (the one we see in the show) is from. Their full name is actually de Bourdon-Vendôme, because there are three different branches and if we only mention "Bourbon", it's kind of confusing because we don't know which branch we speak of and Bourbon-Vendôme is the one Henri IV is from. Which means, the character that we see in the show lived in the castle located next to my elementary school! I was young but I can still see and hear my teacher telling my class "This castle next to us was a big deal.". Henri IV didn't live here but he came a few times, especially when his mother, Jeanne d'Albret, died and was buried here (along with Antoine and their first born son (and Louis, Antoine's brother)). So when Jeanne died in the show, in the story, they technically should have been in my hometown (and Antoine and Louis should have been already dead lol). Same as when Antoine and Louis went back home to their dads. François I, François II, Marie Stuart, Charles IX and Catherine came here. Sadly, the castle is just ruins now... But it makes me sad that they never mentioned the name of the town once. Even Reign mentioned it. I mean, everyone knows that Reign was more fiction than facts but still, they mentioned Vendôme in one of the latest episodes of the show and it's still one of my proudest moment 🥹

Since I live in Vendôme, it means that I live 30 min away from le Château de Chambord, where they filmed most of the show. I love going there whenever I can but sadly, I never got the chance to go there when they were filming... 💔 It was weird and funny to see how they edited the outsides of the castle. Some editing didn't make any sense but I get it. Also, the big gardens are from a completely different castle located in Villandry. So it was weird to see Chambord edited in the background. And it didn't make any sense when we would see Chambord fully and the gardens weren't there, haha.

Also, le Château d'Amboise was used two times and they kinda disrespected it 😅 I'm not entirely serious when I say this but I kinda I am. The first time is in the season one finale, when Mary "arrives" in Scotland. The second that I saw the location I said "Oh, Amboise" and then I saw the ocean next to it and realised that it was supposed to be Scotland 😭 The second time was in season two when Catherine visits Diane (who is still pretty young and most importantly, miraculously still alive in 1572 😭). When Diane and Catherine talk we discover that they are in "Anet" (where she died in 1566). I was so happy when they mentioned where they were in the story but I was like "but, but, it's Amboise, guys 😭". It's funny and confusing for me because I know those castles but it's perfectly fine for an audience who has no clue. Also, le Château d'Anet is a private property, so I don't know if they would have allowed the show to come and filmed there, but also I've seen a documentary a few months ago and the owner seems very sweet, so I don't know. They also used Amboise, the town, to be Paris, where Catherine's brother was supposed to build le Palais des Tuileries.

And last but not least, I wanna talk about Blois (20 min away from me, next to Chambord) Oooh, Blois is probably my biggest heartbreak from that show. In season one, it made sense to be in Chambord because this castle was François I's baby but he lived there for only a month. Henri II didn't live there but kept the constructions going. When Henri II died, François II didn't live there. Charles IX didn't live there either but just like his father before him, he kept the constructions going and consolidated it. Henri III and Henri IV didn't live there and didn't do anything to it (it's such an Anjou and Henri behavior if you ask me haha). But if Henri II, François II, Charles IX and Henri III didn't live there, then where did they live, you ask?! Well, they lived in BLOIS. Which means that the whole show should have been happening in le Château de Blois, not Chambord. Y'all have no idea how excited I was when I heard that season 2 was filming in Blois. I thought, finally, they are going to aknowledge the most important castle of the Valois! I mean they actually all lived there and this is where Catherine died!! When I say that that castle is important to the Valois' story, it's because it is. Do I need to tell you how disappointed I was when I saw season 2 last week? A) I was expecting multiple scenes in the castle and well, that didn't happen. B) I had to wait the very last episode to see what they filmed there. C) THEY DIDN'T EVEN FILMED IN THE CASTLE!!! We see all the Protestants walking across the bridge, we see a few streets that I'm not even sure if it's actually Blois and then we see the castle, in the background, behind all the protestants who are looking at a cathedral that is not even located there. THEY EDITED THE CATHEDRAL OF TOURS IN BLOIS 😭 It's not fair. Honestly, all the editing stuff didn't really bother me. I understand that they did whatever they needed to for the aesthetic of the show. But not mentioning once the name of the town that was important to the true Valois Kings and Queens is something that I truly don't understand.

The show is about the French history, is filmed in France and guess what? We had NO WHERE TO WATCH IT IN FRANCE. The show arrived like a week ago on Max and it's been n°5 in the top 10 since then. French people want to see their country in a show and support it, we have the proof and THEY CANCEL IT?! I am so upset. They could have give it a third and last season to wrap it up. Season 2 was so much better than season 1. The Valois siblings did bring so much more depth, especially Anjou.

I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT I'M LOSING KING ANJOU. The potential that he had was insane.

Okay, I'm gonna shut up now and cry about it 😭

Oops

Hey,

It’s me again. I have a lot to say but I don’t know how. So, I’ll say it simply.

It’s been a week since Eavan left. She came from Arizona and we spent a week in Paris being a couple of fucks. After drinking way too much beer, champagne, and red wine, I ended up peeing in the god damned Seine River just 10 minutes from the base of the Eiffel Tower. Because I am a fool and will probably never mature like a true adult. But maybe that is a good thing. But maybe that is a bad thing, too. Who fucking knows. THEN...

We went home to Châteauroux, and we visited some châteaux. We went to the Chenonceau, as well as the Château de Chambord. Both of which were highly entertaining. My friend, Nelly, whom I highly have the hots for, took us to Chambord and we had racelette for lunch in Blois, just outside Chambord.

Fast-forward. Katie (who is another story in and of itself), Eavan, and I were all drinking wine, from bottles of our own respectively, in the fucking park. Then we went to get more wine, which we did. We then carried said wine to the bar, the Witchberry.

At the Witchberry, things got a bit weird. You’ll see...

So we all ordered whiskey: Jameson. I can’t afford that, really. Eavan said she would buy mine. Spolier: I ended up paying 46 euros for everyone’s drinks in total at the end of the night after saving Eavan. Moving on. ...Okay, I said to myself, we leave soon.

Then, we got drunker after ordering a “witch beer” each. And Justin Timblerlake walked in....but his name was really Fabian but we didn’t know that until much later. But he was like bald, Easter-European J.T. so that’s how we/I referred to him.

We started throwing or at least attempting to throw pretzels in his beer to no avail. Until, finally Katie mustered the courage to talk to him. With him was his friend, Gabriel. Katie was blubbering all over herself not able to say much to E EU JT, so I asked Gabriel if he had any cigarettes, which he did. And that, folks is how it all fucking began.

Gabriel and I ventured outside where he generously shared his cigarettes. But never once was I worried about him or afraid about his intentions. The conversation flowed and I was so happy to be around him. We talked about everything...I think, at least. Our families, the universe, sexuality (DEFINITELY) because I’m a lesbian.

SO:

For the rest of the night he continued to tell me “oh you’re not gay let me show you” and passionately kiss me. So I was like okay; but also was making out in front of many people...in rural France of all places. Then bowling pin man (he literally was shaped like a fucking bowling pin) came up and was like “hey me too let me have kiss” and Gabriel was like “no way bud” but then only way he would leave was if I gave bowling pin man my phone number...so I have his number still which is kind of sp00p-a-licious defffffff...

Then Katie disappeared...not surprising.

Eavan got way toooooooo drunk. The next day we discovered she has broken a piece of the tap on the bar....and lost her jean jacket. Katie had also lost her phone. But that’s another story for another post (not to worry we found the phone. Bowling pin man had it...of course).

So we were outside trying to leave with Eavan and she and I were being pushed around but I was just trying to leave. But thank God for Gabriel. He took us away from those creeps and helped me walk Eavan back to my apartment.

So, Gabriel and I got Eavan in bed and I put a pizza in the oven. He kept kissing me in my kitchen and I was like hey my friend is like 20 feet away nope. And he was like let’s go to your bed and I was like um no.

“So, my bed?” he playfully responded.

“Okay, why not? But we need to make the pizza and turn off the oven.” I said.

So after all that was said and done, we walked to Gabriel’s apartment. PS -- we can call him Gab (Gabe) at this point.

So, I’m gay. I know that I am. Kissing a man feels dry and wrong and strange. But I was exploring. But honestly, that’s why I haven’t ventured further with men, because first base isn’t that enticing. But Gab felt different. His kisses were much like any other mans’...except I felt safe and happy with him. I wasn’t worried or stressed. I wasn’t anxious. I enjoyed my time with him. So I agreed and genuinely wanted to go back to his place with him.

Full-well knowing it would most likely end with sex. And I wanted sex with him. Why? I still don’t know.

So, yes. Ladies and gentlemen, Gab and I had sex. And it was great! And I am confused...? I think I’m still gay. I think this is just a Gab thing. But anyway...

We still text and and I hope we hang out again. And I wouldn’t be mad at all if we had sex again. You know? Like why not?

But I’m gay.

I swear to God and on my dead grandmother...and even my living one...that I AM A MOTHER FUCKING LESBIAN.

...I’m confused.

help...thanks

bye

PS - stole a flag about beer from the bathroom of the Witchberry. I got done peeing, washed my hands, saw it on the wall, rolled that bitch up, and stuffed it in the back of my jeans. It was there for nearly three hours. It shall be an honored trophy in my basement, alongside those of my mother’s tennis trophies from high school.
