It's the Catholic in me, but I don't care what happens in Century of Love because in my soul I know that Vee is the one San has been waiting for, and since this is a story about faith for me, I'm gonna let the grandma from one of my favorite movies, Fools Rush In, say how I feel.
Vee and San are meant to be. It's obvious! But they lack faith, in themselves, in each other, and what the goddess has given them.
San saved Vee's grandmother ensuring that baby Vee would come along decades later.
Vee saved baby San.
The red sheet feel on both of them when they met.
The red veil fell on Vee during the wedding ceremony.
San stops feeling pain when he is around Vee.
The second Vee took the stone, San felt pain again because Vee was also removing his heart from San.
Who has the red (thread of destiny) on their side?
NOT THIS CHICK!
(I hope that damn tracker is still on that queer rock!)
San asked to meet Vad again in her next life so he could repay her kindness and regardless if the story is telling us that Vee is Vad or Miss Thang is Vad, Vee is the person destined for San.
San cannot fight fate!
Which is why I think the goddess made him pick because San had denied his fate several times and when he finally gave into the idea of loving Vee, the goddess tested him to make sure he was secure in his path, and even though our poor baby girl was crying
our old man passed!
The goddess has delivered San the person he needs and he can't keep fighting it. He can't keep denying what is right in front of him because he thought his path was leading to something different, because he wanted something different. He can't be afraid of what's to come. He already extended his life once to avoid fate, but now he must face what this life has to offer him, Vad or no Vad, life or death, which is something Vee must accept as well.
They need each other for whatever lies ahead, and the goddess has made sure they found each other, but it's up to them to stay together.
They gotta put in work, but they have to have faith that'll it work regardless of what's to come.
What Goddess has spent a century bringing together, let no man separate.

hold up im reading more about the lionfish thing and this one island in Honduras has had such a huge problem with lionfish that the measures they have taken include
• getting special exemption from the Honduran government to allow divers access to harpoons and spears which are otherwise illegal in fishing
• public campaign to teach people how to prepare and eat lionfish (apparently they are very tasty once the poisonous spines are removed) (but watch out)
• holding lionfish combination hunting competition and cookout (reportedly they killed and cooked 1,700 in a day) (someone killed 60 of them with a rubber band spear gun???)
• most recently and apparently out of desperation, the divers in charge of culling the lionfish in the Roatan Marine Park just started. feeding the lionfish they killed to sharks. bc what else are you gonna do with it
• the sharks don’t seem to notice or be affected by the poison and begin hanging out with the divers
• the sharks then were seen hunting and killing the lionfish on their own
like this is nuts to me sorry. the sharks just had to be shown “hey this is food, did you know?? you can eat these!! here try one!!” we are possibly altering an entire foodchain bc we like feeding the big ocean wolves
