Good one! Especailly after Leoben's scene(s) on the planet seemed to be cut. It would make sense that Dee might have to get rid of him before making it to the raptor to help Starbuck. I like your stories :)

lyssie January 24 2007, 02:16:42 UTC

Thank you. =)

His scenes being cut is ridiculous, especially since there was so much talk about how they worked extra hard to have time for his scenes to be shot!

And, well, of course he'd be lurking by his human girlfriend. It's not like he gives a crap about D's Vision Quest...

iamann January 24 2007, 03:03:41 UTC

Haha yeah... It's all about Starbuck Starbuck Staarbuck :)

You are absolutely right that after all we read about how hard it is to secure CKR for guest spots and then cut out his scenes... what a total waste.

Totally did not go where I expected it to! Way to explain the Leoben promo pic. :0) And I like the idea of Dee as a rock climber - the tenacity and focus suit her.

Very nice!

lyssie January 24 2007, 02:22:26 UTC

Thank you =)

Whoot! I was uncertain about the rock climbing, but it worked (and I needed it to work), once I realized it would be something that would require serious focus. (Kara, for instance, not a rock climber. Neither are Kat, Hot Dog, or Gaeta....)

indigo419 January 24 2007, 03:27:48 UTC

Kara, for instance, not a rock climber.

Right - the Viper pilots need an opponent, or at least some kind of public display in their rec sports.

I bet Dee does yoga, too. ;0)

*guh*

This fic is PERFECT! I love Dee and her practicality and her sarcasm and her attention to duty and wanting to take a long shower alone. I love that she doesn't *need* Lee or the Old Man to back her up because she can take care of herself, thankyouverymuch.

Thank you.

lyssie January 24 2007, 02:24:48 UTC

I can blame part of the "one woman army" thing on Greg Pak's recent issue of the BSG comic, and the fact that, in their society, gender is equal. So, Dee? Doesn't need a man anymore than, say, some random marine guy needs a chick to save his ass. It's all equal.

And Dee might be a tiny little woman, but she's a soldier, and it may've been a long time since her basic training, but she's a survivor, too.

Er. In conclusion, BSG women are damned cool.

And thank you. =)

centerspire January 24 2007, 02:13:20 UTC

ZOMG! What was the message from God??? (She totally shot him! So cool.)

lyssie January 24 2007, 02:26:22 UTC

I have no idea. I don't speak Leoben all that often. ;)

Thank you!

(Yes, of course she did. *hearts Dee*)

centerspire January 24 2007, 04:22:09 UTC

I guess I'll just have to make that up on my own!

lizardbeth_j January 24 2007, 06:31:36 UTC

I have no Dee icon. I wanted one to comment, and I looked, and I don't have one. This is wrong... I need to find one.

ANYway.

Fic! Dee, being very Dee-ish. And Leoben, what a great surprise -- and he's toast. love her. and yeah, WTF is up with all his scenes getting cut out? I'm starting to think it's not for time or unimportance, that there's a reason -- midstream change of plan maybe?

lyssie January 24 2007, 13:08:50 UTC

Yesss. I need to make some, I've just been lax.

I was kind of half-joking in my head, "what if the scenes cut were Dee and Leoben?" because, well, he obviously didn't get to Kara...

Huh, the change of plan might be possible. I hadn't thought of that.

Thank you =)

lizardbeth_j January 24 2007, 18:10:40 UTC

I am possibly ascribing deep thought to something which was just stupidity or accident -- but it occurred to me that as TPTB started to get a clue about Anders, both his popularity and the character's adaptability, that we've seen a lot less about Leoben. I guess what I'm wondering is whether Anders is going/has already taken over part of the arc that Leoben was planned to have. And so they're cutting Leoben.

I mean, looking at Occ/Precipice he seemed to have a definite plan with Kara going on. And yet, all these eps later, he's barely spoken three words, and nothing about her at all. I know he'll be in Maelstrom (sort of), but it seems odd that he seems to have been intended for some kind of subplot in EoJ/Rapture that was completely cut out. I'll have to watch again but even his bits on the baseship struck me as odd, like maybe some of the dialogue was replaced.

or, I could just be making it all up! But it's a theory.

lyssie January 25 2007, 00:44:28 UTC

That... is an interesting theory. I have another one. You remember, back at the beginning of the season, Trucco was saying he was going to be in, like, five episodes at most? Heck, I've got an interview from sometime last year where he says he's only in three, because of scheduling conflicts....

Trucco has been in eight episodes out of twelve (counting next week).

I don't know how great the fan popularity has been for him, of course. But I'm beginning to wonder if he's going to end up a regular. Which, well, that was always one of BSG's problems, for new characters--it's essentially a bottle show. Everyone we have to play with already showed up. Except Sam.

Hrm.
