Author's note : I know that I marked this story as complete but I wanted to do a little something for the New Year and since TV shows are still killing queer character, this kind of stories will unfortunately never truly end I guess. I also know that it's late February already but I had a lot on my plate lately and didn't find time to continue this until now. SPOILER ALERT for the same shows from chapters 1 and 2 plus Empire, Person Of Interest, Supernatural, Orange Is The New Black, Supergirl, Wynonna Earp, Under The Dome and The Walking Dead. Well, I won't keep you waiting any longer, enjoy ! ;)

Chapter 3 : "Happy New Year 2017 !"

-"Welcome everybody for this first session of 2017" Xena started the meeting. "I wish you all a happy new year and hope this year will be more merciful to Lesbians than the previous one".

-"Toast to that !" Samantha Groves alias "Root" shouted, raising her glass and soon imitated by all the women in the room.

-"Well, 2016 was kind of an improvement when you think about it" Charlie Bradbury interrupted smiling. "Statistically, 2016 has the higher rate of LGBTQ characters on television in history" she explained.

-"Yes, but the death rate for those characters is still incredibly high" Denise intervened.

-"Yeah, I agree with our one-eyed woman here" Root said after taking a sip of her drink. "We have to be careful with statistical data. It could mean anything. For example, if you have your head in the oven and your feet in the fridge, you're statistically moderately comfortable ! she finished laughing.

-"More seriously" Carolyn Hill said, still smiling form the joke, "Root is right. This increase of LGBTQ characters is often due to gay men and the death rate doesn't show that women of color are more likely to die in a TV show than their white counterparts.

-"Oh my God, this conversation is so boring" Mimi Whiteman suddenly exclaimed. "And I crushed old rich men's board meeting for a living" she added, getting up and walking toward the buffet. "Wait, where is the alcohol here ? I'm going to need some if we continue on this topic" she added, checking all the tables for her alcoholic Grail.

-"I don't think getting drunk will do you any good" Xena warned Mimi. The latter was already difficult and Xena wasn't willing to take the risk of knowing if the alcohol would improve or aggravate Mimi's behavior.

-"Why ? It's not like I'm going to die from cirrhosis of the liver" Mimi replied shrugging her shoulders and resuming her quest.

-"I think 2017 will be promising for us if we take into account that two lesbian cops were saved by their bulletproof vest lately" Poussey Washington tried to lighten up the mood.

-"It's not because TV writers just discovered that cops wear bulletproof vests on duty that lesbians won't still be dying on TV" Naomi Campbell pointed in a sarcastic tone that seemed to never leave her.

-"I'm actually against those vests" Queen Sophie Anne interrupted, making everyone look at her, confused.

-"What ?" she asked the room, offended. "Tell me you didn't all wished that the cute redhead sheriff would die so she could join us here !" she defended herself. A heavy silence followed her statement.

-"That's what I thought" the vampire said, triumphantly. "Kevlar is the worst crotch blocker ever".

Suddenly, the loud noise of someone blowing their nose echoed in the room.

-"I could have used a bulletproof vest on my show" Tara Maclay managed to say before burring her face in her tissue again.

-"Oh Jesus ! Sophie Anne sighed, exasperated. "Is she going to break down every time someone will refer closely or remotely to the way she died ?"

-"Please Sophie Anne" Xena warned. "Show some respect. Not everyone take their death as well as you".

-"Good thing she takes it well !" Maya St Germain said laughing. "She's a vampire ! Technically, she was already dead when she was still on her show. So she had more time than anyone else in here to get used to her own death".

-"What bothers me is that she makes a fuss about a stupid stray bullet" Sophie Anne spoke again. "That poor girl" she continued, motioning to Denise with her free hand, was shot in the eye by an arrow !" Then looking at Denise with an awful sympathetic face, she added : "That was really disgusting and traumatizing my dear, and I starred in a HBO show too".

At that, Lexa stood up unexpectedly. "Watch out demon" she said menacingly, gripping the handle of her sword. "It's not because we're stuck here on the land of the slain that I can't send you further away in the Underworld". God, she hated bullying.

-"Look at that" the vampire said smiling devilishly. "Someone is becoming big-headed. You think that your death generating the Lexa Pledge and other Clexacon makes you the boss of me ?" she added, taking a sip of her blood cocktail.

Xena stood up too, ready to separate the two strong headed women in the case the fight would turn ugly. Finally, the president of the group didn't have to intervene because the door busted open in a flash of red.

-"Did you know that I know a thing or two about the Underworld ? a slightly short of breath Emma Swan said. "I've been there myself".

-"Swan get out !" all the group shouted in unison and the red leather tornado was out of the room as fast as she came.

-"It may be 2017 already, but some things never change apparently", Xena said sighting and thinking about installing a lock on the door to prevent Emma Swan from entering ever again.

-"Sometimes it's better that way" Tricia said, moved. "I really feel like I found a family there, with all of you" she added at the verge of crying.

-"Girls, let's part on those beautiful words from our friend Tricia before the next group gets here" Xena announced. "But not before singing our anthem !"

At that, all the members got up and joigned hands :

"We are dead and we are proud,

Canon will not take us out,

They killed us and we took the blow,

But to heteronormativity we won't bow !"

Knock, Knock. The door slowly opened and revealed an elegant woman.

"Hi, I'm Maura Isles from the queerbaiting group and I was wondering if you are going to finish anytime soon ?"

-"We were just about to leave" Xena replied. "Oh, and happy new year !" she added.

-"Thanks, you too" Maura said smiling brightly. "I'm very excited for 2017 !"

-"Oh, and why is that ?" Xena asked while the other members were packing the food and drinks from the buffet.

-"Our show stopped airing not so long ago" the brunette who was accompanying Maura, a certain Jane Rizzoli, explained to the president. "So this is our last reunion. After that, we're off to do what we want" she finished smiling.

-"Yes !" Maura agreed enthusiastically. "What a day to be alive, no ?

Everyone turned to Maura, eyes open wide in shock.

-"Maura..." Jane whimpered, putting her head between her hands in shame.

-"What ? the doctor Isles asked, confused. "Did I said something wrong ?

Author's note : There it is finally ! The end ! Or is it ? This could turn into a serie but I'm afraid this would mean that more LGBTQ characters will die in the future... :( But maybe it could mean that some of you have ideas of some topics or characters you want to focus on. PM me here or ask me at 69reggaetongirl . tumblr . com. I'm open to ideas (but only great ones lol). No, more seriously, keep in mind that I didn't actually watched all of those TV show and that I quitted watching some so, I may not be able to fulfill everyone's wish, sorry. Anyway, thanks all of you who favorited, reviewed, followed or shared my little story. Means a lot.

PS : Thanks Autostraddle for the statistical data in this chapter.
