what may or may not be hard reality

Huh. For three seconds there Jenny seemed almost human. Wow. Thank you, show, for not having my assumptions that she would immediately e-mail the picture to Tina come true.

Alice is annoying.

And Helena is so pretty. I like that she and Tina are friends.

Shenny doing the tango, the *actual* tango and not the bedroom kind is almost CREEPIER than the bedroom kind. Gah.

Alice and Bette fighting and being competitive is AWESOME. Sniping and cute, and both of them going all crazy-ass competitive on their partners. Hee!

And ooooooh, Bette and Tina dancing is fucking amazing... *guh* High-powered femmes in dresses. I rarely rarely like a woman in a dress. I generally find dresses boring but beautiful. Like a beautiful flower arrangement, something pretty to look at but not attractive. However, *Bette and Tina* in those dresses, dancing like that... holy smokes, it's hot!!!

But argh! All the other people got relatively good coverage of their routine, but Bette & Tina's they have to intercut with Shane and Nikki in the bathroom (ugh), and Dylan and Helena reuniting (yay!!!!). However, as awesome as Dylena getting back together is (wooooo!!!!!!), why did they have to do it just when Bette and Tina were dancing!!!

Go Marlee!!!! Yay!! She's frickin' gorgeous, and I love her intense presence. Sadly underused character this season. *pout* (But meta much, eh? *snicker* I have to see her DWTS episodes...)

"Your sense of fair play is... annoying." Heee!!! Go Tasha and her sense of fair play!

Uhm. And there's the Jenny I know and hate. Is that musician singing 'jugular, jugular'?? Again with the apt lyric choices.

Aww... and with that sweet little exchange between Bette and Jodi I'm SO back to shipping them again. Gah! I know they didn't work out, and at the time I didn't want them to work out, but I love them together, and I wish they'll stay friends...

I sort of like the idea of Bette and Tina in NYC... but I'll miss the sunshine in Bette's hair... NYC is too blue for her.

Seriously. Is Kit stupid???

Oh. And the winner is... Jennifer Beals, once again. That moment, when she realizes Marcie isn't on the bus, and her heart breaks right there in her eyes. And then she tries to shrug it off, but it's back when she sits down on the curb. Knife, meet my heart. And at this moment, regardless of what I said about Bette and Jodi earlier, at this moment I'm so fucking happy that it's Bette and Tina, because it's meant to be Bette and Tina, and at this moment in time there's no-one else I want there with Bette than Tina.

Although, I will say that Tasha and Alice on the dancefloor, closer, closer, closer, is a close runner-up. I haven't felt this strongly about Alice and Tasha in, well, ever. Awww...

One episode left. OMG. How will I live without The L Word??? I mean, I've hated on it just as much as Every. Other. Lesbian. but it's gorgeous women having lives and kissing each other, and it's Jennifer Beals, and Rachel Shelley, and Laurel Holloman, and OMG how will I live without them??????

(And why don't I have a Bette & Tina icon?? Or a Marlee icon for that matter...)
