SFF: I need booze.
BSG: ...
ETA: Shit, I forgot Gaius. I'm sorry. I love Gaius, and he IS BACK in this episode. In fine form, too, at the end. I loved his line about, "I should have said that first" er, and as I said before...
Let's go with the allegorical and Dark parts, first. Because otherwise, this will be bad and full of entitlement issues that I tried to smack out of myself this morning (seriously, where did the sane shipper in me go?)
I just... It was well-done and such. And dark and deep and yadda yadda.
Jammer is dead. Since I've disliked him since Litmus (no, really, I was talking to timjr about this), I am... happy. But his death is going to come back to bite Chief in the ass. Poor honorable man.
Seelix and Jean were lovely to see. I'm glad that Jean is still as much of a bitch as she was way back in LYDB2. And Seelix? Yes. All kinds of lovely.
Gaeta. Oh, Sparky. You were so tired of trying to defend yourself. I love you so. Because you knew this might happen, and you still stayed working for the other side. You get cookies, man.
So does Chief, for sitting with him.
I.... Dad and Mom were great. Yes. And Zarek! HAHAHAH. I love you, man. Don't ever stop being a weasel.
Lee is, appropriately, on the liposuction diet.
Tigh. He's lost everything and now he finds out... yeah. Someone else said it best. Hollow victory.
sigh.
I'll be the first to admit I'm a dyed-in-the-wool-gun-ho Kara/Anders shipper. Hell, I figure I'm the co-Official Batshit Insane Kara/Anders shipper. But, generally, it's in jest. And generally, I'm the first to mock obsessive shippers and their reactions to canon and, hell, I send up Jaka and half a dozen members of the Sam/Jack list every chance I can.
But I realized something this morning. I have entitlement issues when it comes to Kara and Anders. Maybe it's because I dove so enthusiastically into shipping them. Maybe it's because I don't trust this writing team (and haven't since I first watched the mini, for those who are wondering) further than I can throw a bus.
That said, I want to smack them both. Kara for her Oh So Special Emo, and Sam for GIVING UP.
(I suppose this is like wanting to smack Vanyel halfway through the second Herald-Mage book--he never learns, either)
Gah. I can't think about this intelligently anymore (poor dlly got ranted at the entire way to his house).
I would, however, like to note that except for Sam giving her back her dog tag and saying he was done with it? Except for that? I pretty much wrote that scene in the season 3 spec fic of doom.
Now, I need some pop music.
