DPP: All AU, All the time

Good day to you all, today's post is a little bit on the late side because public transort in England is enough to frequently make you want to kill yourself. But on to happier things :)

Yesterday we talked about our musical inspiration when it comes to writing pilots fic, I have started compiling a new playlist of all your favourites, they were most ( Read more... )

I recently rewatched Some Kind of Wonderful and Watts was making me think of Starbuck so much. I could see them in a High School AU and she would give him a kissing lesson. And the idea of Adama screaming "Where's the frakking money, Lee?" just about killed me dead.

I feel like In Plain Sight is a good pilot match. You have the snarky blonde bad ass who is great at her job (even though she doesn't follow all the rules) but lousy at her private life. You have her slightly effeminate but ruggedly handsome partner who knows how to handle her like no one else. She's even engaged to a nice looking ball player who sort of worships her but sort of doesn't really understand her - at least not to the extend her best friend/partner does.

YES! Kara is Watt's. taragel and I have had this discussion before, and yeah, the daddy issues are all Lee. You should write this :D

I never watched In Plain Sight, but I can definitely see Katee in a Mary McCormack role, and that description does sound very piloty :)

I would love to write that but I'm just not a writer and I wouldn't be able to figure out Amanda Jones. While part of me LOVES the movie another part is just annoyed at how dumb Keith is and how little actual Watts/Keith we get. But man when I was like (checks date movie came out) 16 that kiss was the hottest thing ever!

In Plain Sight is really worth watching. I love Mary McCormack so I was on board with it from the start. I've only watched BSG this year and when I was watching The Oath and Blood on the Scales I loved the two of them kicking butt, taking names, teasing each other, and occasionally kissing. I thought, "Man, I would SO watch that show." Then I realized I kinda did and it was IPS.

Keith's not dumb! He's adorable :) And kind of just, a boy, is all. And hey, I still think that kiss is ridiculously hot. With the drums and the clutching and the blushing. Ugh. H.O.T.

I do really like Mary McCormack, but they did that like, 20 second drive by crossover thing with L&O:CI that one time and I kind of just wasn't interested. I mean, I know, it was 20 seconds (maybe not even that) but I figured, if I already like Mary McCormack and seeing her as this character doesn't make me want to watch this show, I kind of just don't want to watch this show. Maybe one day I will give it a go...it's on the maybe list.

Heh, see I feel like SKOW is TOO pilots. Kara and Watts are basically the same person (which is why I love them both so much).

Oh, maybe that's what happened to the boobs Watts's grandmother predicted - they went to Kara! ;-)
