secondly because of the implications it holds that Roslin herself may be a Cylon Whoa, you think Lee thinks Laura is a Cylon? She still thinks Kara is one. It's all so very confusing. Would Lee really care? He accepted Kara as possibly being a Cylon, I think. Yeah, it's different he's in love with Kara and Laura is president of the colonies, but if he could accept one, shouldn't he accept the other?
My sympathy for her waned when she called the delegates 'needy and perpetually unhappy'. Aww, I think she's tired too. Tired of trying to placate them, torn between logic and her very real-to-her visions. She's dying soon and trying to save them, and they are quibbling over democracy. Hee! Never been in Laura's pov before, but I'm tired and sad right now, and like her want to get on with this already. *apologizes to democracy, we'll dust you off again later*
had reconciled myself last week to Gaeta losing his leg but that didn't make it much easier to take. Next time, give a girl a clue! Nah, my fault really, I had convinced myself it wouldn't happen. Sigh. But I'm prepared for anything now. He could die, Kara could die, they all could die and be dismembered. This is this season. Any frakking thing could happen and will.
I was really stressing out about their being Centurions with free will ambling around Galactica. Who's to say one of them wouldn't break ranks and shoot humans? And did Nathalie TELL Adama they had free will now? Grr. Dude. They could. Anything could happen. Anything.
That was probably my favourite moment in the episode because I need to badly to see that Kara, that all the humans, have doubts about what they're doing. And Kara must doubt herself sometimes. I liked this too. But I still worry. A few eps ago Kara was tied inextricably to her visions, couldn't leave them alone. Something is fundamentally changed in her. Was changed in her. What the heck is it? I want to know. Until she knows, how can she be sure of herself? I'll believe in her to the end, but that doubt she's feeling is a good thing.
So better than I'd expected, but I'm still glad I lowered my expectations. Glad you're better, Boppy! I still think my show is awesome. It just wants to kill me every week. How did I forget that? I still kind of love it immensely, but I am a bit . . . raw. But thanks for more meta and I'm glad you found things to enjoy. Thanks for everything. :-)
you think Lee thinks Laura is a Cylon Let me clarify: I think that, if the writers hadn't COMPLETELY given up on the idea that humans even care any more, it would be logical for anyone to assume that someone might well be a Cylon if they confessed they were sharing dreams with them.
if he could accept one, shouldn't he accept the other? Not saying he shouldn't! I rather think he does. :) Judging by his behaviour in the rest of the ep.
*apologizes to democracy, we'll dust you off again later* HA! *makes Lee earnest!face at you for that* I'm your conscience! You need democracy now more than ever!
Next time, give a girl a clue! I couldn't, sweetie. It would have hurt you and I don't think you would have believed me any way. And then there was a slim chance he might not lose the leg and I'd have hurt you for no reason.
Dude. They could. Anything could happen. Anything. Yes. *nods and worries*
Until she knows, how can she be sure of herself? I'll believe in her to the end, but that doubt she's feeling is a good thing. Yeah, it is. I want her to feel it. Like you said several weeks ago, it's not Kara I doubt but her visions and whether they are being orchestrated by Cylons, which seems entirely likely now that her comet turned out to be a basestar. :(
I still kind of love it immensely, but I am a bit . . . raw. But thanks for more meta and I'm glad you found things to enjoy. Thanks for everything. :-) I was raw last week. It still holds a Big Emotional Place in my life, though I rather think I have a kind of familial love for it now. The kind of love you have for a family member who is really frakking you off. ;) It's the 'I will never leave you, you will always be part of my life, but oh god I want to kill you right now' love. :D
HA! *makes Lee earnest!face at you for that* I'm your conscience! You need democracy now more than ever! But Laura is dying! And the Quorum is never happy. We do need democracy right now, though. This is why Lee can't ever die.
I couldn't, sweetie. It would have hurt you and I don't think you would have believed me any way. Awww! I did have myself rather convinced, didn't I? But not anymore. I am now steeled and ready for anything they might send my way. Anything. See? My expectations were so lowered I was completely astonished at the show's ability to hook me emotionally. Not making that mistake again. Never underestimate the power of your own character love.
I will never leave you, you will always be part of my life, but oh god I want to kill you right now Love. Ah, different kind of show loves. My is the You Are Awesome But Please Don't Hurt My Kids Any More Even Though I'm Almost Willing to Trade Democracy for Their Lives Blah, Blah Rest of Show Love. No, not really, I love all the narratives of the show. But when one of my faves is in danger, this is totally the show I'm watching.
Nah, could never leave BSG. I can't even skip an episode!

With you on that, honey!
Never underestimate the power of your own character love.
Amen!
I can't skip either, but I can dither nervously all weekend over it. ;)
