(no subject)
I've just seen the 10th episode of the 2nd season of Californication, loved it and cried my eyes out at the last scene. Hank and Karen are a complex, imperfect and sometimes dysfunctional couple, but they love each other so much.. And I realized that my most beloved tv couples have always a *history* together and that often there's a flashback that shows the audience how they were and how they got here.
So I decided to make a little picspam about three of my OTPs from three different (and kinda underrated/not-so-well-known) tv shows.
Enjoy.
Lee&Kara; Daybreak Part I & II (Battlestar Galactica)
- No, I know fear. And I get scared, just not of dying.
- So then, what scares you?
- Being forgotten.
["I kind of felt that Kara and Lee had never really left a moment in time on the table.
They were kind of trapped in that moment perpetually of wanting, longing, feeling
but never being able to fully enjoy it or fully embrace it.
They just really never left that place as characters." - R. D. Moore]
Hank&Karen; In Utero (Californication)
Dear Karen,
If you're reading this, it means I actually worked up the courage to mail it.. so good for me.
You don't know me very well but if you get me started, I have a tendency to go on and on about how hard the writing is for me.
But this, this is the hardest thing I've ever had to write. There's no easy way to say this so I'll just say it. I met someone.
It was an accident, I wasn't looking for it, I wasn't on the make. It was a perfect storm.
She said one thing, I said another. Next thing I knew I wanted to spend the rest of my life in the middle of that conversation.
Now there's this feeling in my gut: she might be The One.
She's completely nuts in a way that makes me smile, highly neurotic, a great deal of maintenance required.
She is you, Karen. That's the good news. The bad is that I don't know how to be with you right now. And it scares me.
Because if I'm not with you right now, I have this feeling we'll get lost out there.
It's a big, bad world full of twists and turns and people have a way of blinking and missing the moment.
The moment that could have changed everything.
I don't know what's going on with us, and I can't tell you why you should waste a leap of faith on the likes of me.
But damn you smell good. Like home. And you make excellent coffee, that's got to count for something, right? Call me.
Unfaithfully yours,
Hank Moody
Matt&Harriet; K&R Part I (Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip)
- "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves and pray,
then I will hear them from Heaven and will forgive their sins and will heal their lands"
- You are believing in a fairytale..
- I'm believing that God protects his children
- Then why the hell didn't he give the hijackers massive coronaires before they reached for the box cutters?
- I can't explain God's ways to you because I can't understand them myself. No one can.
- Well, isn't that convenient for God?
- I would imagine if I were God, I would make things as convenient for myself as possible..
- Do you understand that this represents an inexplicable lapse of common sense?
- It's not a weakness to have faith
- It's not a weakness to take responsability either.
- I don't disapprove of what you believe.
- You think I'm going to burn in hell for what i believe
- Yeah, I do worry about that.
- The boat saved him.
- God sent the boat.
- Man built the boat. If anything, God sent the flood!
- Isn't it possible that Mary got pregnant by another man
and Joseph stepped up so that his wife wouldn't get stoned to death by the village?
- No..
- It's more likely that an angel inseminated her
and she gave birth to a magical wizard who could rise from the dead?
- He's not David Copperfield!
- Why do you have to believe in the divinity of Jesus Christ
to know that robbing a bank is wrong and picking someone off the ground is right?
- That's like asking why you think you need to believe in gravity
to know that if you throw a rock off a ledge it's going to hit somebody in the head.
- Science isn't something you believe in, science has to be proven or they don't get to call it science..
- What would be great is if you knew something about Christians before you..
- It's a fairy tale!
- No it's not!
- We've been having this fight for six months!
- We've been having this fight for two years!
- We've been having this fight in two different millennia now!
