picspam #5 (farscape (reasons to watch) part 4)
the otp.
the greatest otp ever. john crichton and aeryn sun. this is the otp done right, every single step of their journey is perfect. i've never watched a show where the main otp was done so well

all great otps have the scene. below is john&aeryn's, it's my favourite scene of those two. completely heartbreaking, beautifully acted and written.
slightly edited to avoid a couple of really big spoilers! which you'll hear if you watch the scene below, but if you're spoiler-free, please stay that way. please?
john: "i'm coming with you."
aeryn: "no. i'm sorry."
john: "well, you're not leaving without me."
aeryn: "what do you want?"
john: "you."
aeryn: "i have to go."
john: "then say goodbye."
aeryn: "we don't say goodbyes."
john: "we do this time. you see, you leave and then you come back and i-i can't...handle the inbetween, aeryn. say goodbye."

john: "do you love john crichton?!"

john: "and i can't let the one thing i love fly away in a crappy little ship!"

aeryn: "you once said it was as if the fates meant for us to be together."
john: "and i believe that."
aeryn: "well, then, if it's true, we will be together again."

aeryn: "just make a frelling wormhole, and go home."
john: "there is no home! there is no wormhole! there's only y- aeryn...anywhere in the universe, you pick the planet."

aeryn: "do you love aeryn sun?"
john: "beyond hope."
aeryn: "we're in the hands of fate now. we have to trust in that. fly safe. goodbye, john crichton."
it's not the whole scene, sadly, it doesn't have the coin toss itself, which i love for one reason: john never takes his eyes off her.
