Naoms ♥ Ems #1398: Who loves these lesbians? The voters do. Ultimate Lesbian Kiss!


#1398;
e m i l y n a o m i
A HEARTWARMING LOVE STORY ABOUT TWO PEOPLE.

Naomi Campbell and Emily Fitch. Mrs and Mrs Campbell. Their story begins with once upon a time and ends with they lived happily ever after. They've loved each other since they were twelve years old, and though it was love at first sight, they were both too scared to tell each other how they felt. So Naomi ran and Emily chased. Emily saw something in Naomi that no one else did and that was what made her keep loving and chasing Naomi after so many years. And no matter how hard Naomi tried to deny her feelings or how fast or far she ran, she always ended up back with Emily.

They were each others' first and last kisses and each others' first and only loves. It was only when Naomi stopped running that they could become something. It was only when Emily took a chance and kissed Naomi again, that their story really began. Emily kissed Naomi and Naomi ran again, but not for long, because she realized that her feelings weren't something that could be pushed aside and ignored. They made love by a lake, held hands through a cat-flap, kissed breathlessly against a row of lockers, and laid their souls bare at the Love Ball.


But that wasn't the end. Like all epic love stories, things were never simple. They spent the best summer of their lives together, but as the summer ended, so did their happiness, and slowly their relationship began to unravel. Emily kept giving and Naomi kept taking, until they tore each other apart. Emily became the runner and Naomi, the chaser. But no matter what happened, they couldn't stop loving each other and they couldn't stay away.

They fought and cried and stripped each other of everything until nothing was left but love. Real, true love. Their journey was perilous and heartbreaking and more than they could bear at times, but it was all worth it in the end. They couldn't have gotten there -- the end, where their story both ended and began anew -- without the journey. And like every fairytale, like every epic love story, their story ended and began with a kiss.

And so, heartfelt declarations aside, they'll love each other forever. Soulmates. Lobsters.

Emily: I can see it now, in lights: Naomi, get to know me.
Naomi: I thought it was quite catchy.
Emily: Yeah, well, so's AIDS.

Emily: I think you can do anything.

Naomi: Can we go somewhere? Anywhere.
#3 | Naomi, 306


Emily: Do you want to do blowbacks?
Naomi: I never got blowbacks. Why can't people just smoke the damn thing straight?
Emily: It's fun. Have you even tried it?
Naomi: No. But, being all-seeing, I already know it's s**t.
Emily: Come on, everything once.
#4 | Naomi, 306


Naomi: Say something.
Emily: I'm all about experiments, me.

to want you. Well, I do want you. So, be brave. And want me back.
#6 | Naomi, 306


Naomi: I do want someone -- need someone. You were right.
Emily: And?
Naomi: And, when I'm with you, I feel like I'm a better person. I feel happier,
less ... alone. Less lonely. But it's not that simple, is it? Being with someone.
Emily: Isn't it?
Naomi: No. I mean, I don't know. I mean, I don't think so.
Can't we just sit like this? For a bit?
Emily: Yeah, we can. For a bit.

Emily: No, you don't do that. I'm not your fcking experiment! ... I'm tired --
so sick and tired of it. We're still holding hands through a cat-flap, aren't we?
#10 | Katie & Emily, 309


Emily: I like girls. No, I like a girl. No. I love her. I love ... her.




why we love emily & naomi :
Why do we love Emily and Naomi? It's pretty easy to see why: they're made for each other. They've loved each other since they were both twelve years old, and while the journey was never easy, they never gave up and they never stopped loving each other, no matter what. Naomi and Emily are unique in the world of Skins, because the hugeness of their love is just so profound. Every time they tried to break apart, they just came back together again, bound even tighter than before. Their love is unrivaled in the Skins universe; there is no other couple that can compare.

And that doesn't just apply to the Skins universe. There is no other lesbian couple in the history of television that has had a story and love as great as theirs -- they rank among one of the most epic love stories of all time in any world, ever. They have made people believe that there is someone out there for them, made them realize that being gay is not only normal and okay, but that gay couples are just like heterosexual couples. And gay couples and characters, just like in real life, can be happy. Emily and Naomi have given strength to countless people, encouraging them to be open and honest. To just be themselves. No other couple can make that sort of claim.

Emily and Naomi love each other, so we love them. They bring out the best in each other, and even if their romance hasn't always been lovely and sweet, they've always managed to endure the rough spots and come out as a stronger couple than before. Naomi gives Emily confidence and Emily lets Naomi be herself. They support each other, they are each others' shadows; it's easy to see why they're so in love. They're beautiful together, and that's why we love them.

why we love lily & kathryn :
LilyKat -- they're the actresses who made Emily and Naomi as epic as they were. Kathryn Prescott (Emily) and Lily Loveless (Naomi) originally met at drama school together and then three years later found themselves in Skins, playing best friends and lovers. Kathryn and Lily are best mates; they spent most of their time on set together and frequently attend events together. They're as awesome as their fictional counterparts. Kathryn has said that Lily knows her the best and Lily has said that Kathryn is the one she gets along with best. Naomi and Emily could not have been nearly as great without Lily and Kathryn.

Kathryn and Lily are of course the biggest shippers of Naomi and Emily. When Naomi cheated in Series Four, Kathryn and Lily actually had arguments about it. They genuinely care about their characters and their fans, and it really shows. They've both said that they love their characters and are glad that Naomi and Emily's story was so groundbreaking; they are happy that the story they told made people feel comfortable about themselves and love and sexuality. Neither of them can see anyone else playing their characters, and neither can we.

the Naomily story took on its own life
The ending I wrote for Naomily is the first thing I thought of two years before.
Where I finished is where I started with the whole relationship.

― BRYAN ELSLEY, WRITER



it was always between them.
It's kind of sad, and it's kind of beautiful: that Naomi has been trying to work out
what that love is for 6 years.

― JAMIE BRITTAIN, WRITER


i knew they would find a way.
I wanted to say in one image that they have just had the best summer of their lives.
― ED HIME, WRITER



kindred souls.
It's a love story about a girl who doesn't want to be in love.
― JACK THORNE, WRITER


yes, it is enduring love.
This series was basically Emily and Naomi beating the crap out of each other nearly the
whole time. They were bloody and bruised but saying I still love you. It's beautiful to know
that as a couple you have been tested in that way and come through it.

― ED HIME, WRITER



a beautiful relationship.
They'd be married and travelling the world, because that's what they want to do.
― LILY LOVELESS & KATHRYN PRESCOTT


the simplicity of their dynamic.
In the end what they realized that is, if you get it right, there's something gloriously simple
and liberating
about love. It was always between them, but it took some time for them to realize.

― JAMIE BRITTAIN, WRITER





the end.

I'll have to disagree with you Lauren, from what I saw over 60% of Jemma's relationship were angsty times, and considering they have about triple Naomily's screentime that is a lot of angst It seemed to be a new problem every few episodes. Killing Jenny's parents off at the end kind of made it all a bit of a downer. Naomily were solid in the end scenes to, so there's no difference there IMO. They both went out on a coupley high, solid relationships and happy together. Both shows love their drama so you have to expect it, it's just because Jemma had more screentime they had more in general. I wouldn't say they were any better than Naomily on that front, not at all. From the way Jemma fans had talked about them I expected them to be all sunshine and rainbows for episodes on end, and it that just wasn't the reality. The angst did outweigh the happy IMO. Not to the extent it ruined anything, but it was a big part of them. From start to finish.

Naomily had loads of sweet moments to balance things out as well. They just had a lot less screentime to do it in. But if you even it out, Jemma don't come out on top. Both couples had really loving and sweet moments to even out the angst, which is what redeems their relationships and makes them good examples of tv romances.
Lisa I am not denying Jemma had angst, cos lord they did, but I do think given the little time Naomily had they spent far too much of it on angst. Series 4 is just 8 episodes of it and it is just horrible for Naomily, Jemma never got to in such an ugly place, their angst was never so heavy and continuous. Instead it would be peppered in with good times, and there was so much more of a balance. Naomily did not have that balance in series 4. I really don't care if you throw episode 2 in my face, because the entire episode had this underlying tension of there being something wrong with Naomi and Naomily along with it. It's not an episode one watches and rejoices in how happy they are, because the truth is they weren't, Naomi was lying, Emily wasn't able to trust her ultimately, and I can't switch my brain off and go "Oh hey a happy lesbian couple". The sad fact is I couldn't do that until the very last scene on the sofa. Now with Jemma, yeah they had more screentime, and they had many storylines of various angst, but a good time would always follow so it wasn't so clogged up and depressing to watch. Naomily ended up depressing.

All I'm going to say is that for me Jemma is a much happier couple to watch over and over again.

I don't understand why other couples need to be compared to Naomily to make them legitimate. I don't tend to compare couples to other couples unless I'm explaining why I don't like one of them.

Again I disagree, Lauren. Naomily may have had different type of angst at times, but they did not in any way have more than Jemma IMO. Jemma had so many issues, it just went from one thing to another every few episodes. I don't see them as more loving or less angsty than Naomily in anyway they just had more screentime so had more time for coupley moments, but they didn't have anything that Naomily didn't get, other than singing And Jemma did get to ugly places at times, just because one didn't cheat didn't mean they didn't have ugly times and moments with each other. IMO Jemma had too much angst at times, and I was sometimes tired of the amount of problems thrown at them, and it got a bit 'oh not again'. I didn't think Naomily did have too much angst, I thought what they got was realistic. I personally preferred Naomily's ending, angst and all to Jemma's, which I found a bit of a downer because it was overshadowed by Jenny's parents deaths. Naomily's I found liberating and happy. But it's all down to personal opinion and taste. Something we won't fully agree on

I don't think Jemma are a perfect romance. Naomily weren't perfect either, but it doesn't matter. Because both made each other better people, and they both got through all their problems because they loved each other. I'm not bothered neither were perfect, because no couple are, what's important is they were believable as couples, and they were a good love stories. I just want a lesbian couple to show real love, I don't need them to be angst free. Angst can actually add to a storyline because it can prove how strong a couple are. That is what both storylines did, they proved their love They aren't the same storyline or couple by a longshot. IA with Jess that they shouldn't really be compared, but I don't think it's true to say Naomily had more angst, not after I have just finished watching all of Jemma's It was no smooth ride for either of these couples.

I am guessing the person who made this one didn't actually watch the show Emily moved in with Naomi in 402 after Jenna basically kicked her out. The Fitch's didn't lose their home until 404, and they moved in with Emily And Katie was still living there in 408. Katie, Cook and Panda

I don't even want to raise my hopes for S7, I don't want to be disappointed. My poor heart can't take another Skins-the-movie tragedy!
For now, I'll just campaign for the AfterEllen poll and keep my fingers crossed..

PS: oh hey, Sam!

Yep, everyone's hibernating till we get S7 news. If only Skins would give us details

E4 are the ones who have commissioned S7, so it's unlikely it will fall through like the movie. There's no guarantee Naomily are back though. Naomily need some more votes, as it's been equal all day.

Maybe Skins will let us know something by the end of spring, we'll see.

I had all the people I know and who care about Naomily voting. It's 50%/50%, we need a little push..
Anyway, I'm off to sleep. Bye Lisa, see you soon (on here, I promise!)
