Some Thoughts...a mini SkyCap

Mar 20, 2009 18:29

The bird imagery from Daybreak? Got me thinking and pondering. I'm getting a vibe (here's hoping it's a real one) there's something meaningful to it. And not, you know, just something they did because they could. *eye roll ( Read more... )

You are the first person I've heard say that. That it ended as it should. As soon as that bird went free I knew what was going to happen to Kara. I knew she was leaving and that she was finally free - free of everything that weighed her down. I thought it was kind of beautiful. Like this life was so hard for her and she was finally getting rewarded for it being so hard for her. And I liked what you said about Lee too...about how once he realized he needed her he could finally be alone.

I loved your post.

And Kara - kinda reminded me of Cordy from Angel - now that she's got them back on track...her job is done. The Gods gave her one last go to get things done right, she did, and now she has to go.

I'm glad you liked this. Your comparison to Cordelia is a good one, I think. And I kind of like that Kara got to say good-bye to Papadama and spent her last corporeal moments with Lee. I thought it was fitting because it kind of completed the circle because he was the first person she saw when she came back...and he's the last she sees before leaving again.

Who knew I could feel gutted in a good way? *LOL*

I'm definitely glad Kara got to say goodbye to Papadama and he (like Angel's team) never really knew what she was. And that she got to spend her last moments with Lee (like Cordy did with Angel) However - I wish there had been a better verbal exchange, and I wouldn't have been opposed to a kiss. (thought that made Cordy's departure all the more poignant).

I know what you mean.

I like you take and understanding of the finale. I saw it coming too but was hoping for a more Earthbound connection.

I guess I will have to settle for fanfiction for that. Does your muse have any ideas. I love your stories.

I wouldn't have been upset with a more earthbound connection, but I can live with how it played out. Still processing it though. *LOL*

Oh, thank you. The sages are whispering amongst themselves at the moment...that's usually a good sign. :)

Thanks for reading and commenting.

As hard as it was I have come to understand this since last night. My thoughts followed a similar path as what you've expressed [i love that you had the foresight to see this coming]last night as I was trying to sleep. It hurts that a piece of my heart still refuses to let go of what could have been but I have hope that that piece will get smaller as time moves on.

Thank you for helping me to see the beauty in what we were given and for understanding Lee so clearly when so many can't (or won't).

I'm going to stop now because I'm getting all teary again. *hugs*

*hands you some tissues* It's the strangest thing. I find myself, at the oddest times, getting all emo and misty-eyed over the finale. Almost like I've lost a person instead of a TV show. *LOL*

I'm truly honored my post helped a bit. It's not a perfect ending, but I think that's part of what BSG was about. And oddly enough, I like that the ending for Lee and Kara isn't completely finite...I think there's room for fic to be written and that's sort of a gift, IMO. We can write our own end.

Okay. *grabs tissues* Now I'm getting all emo again...

Thank you so much for commenting. *Big Hugs*

This was absolutely beautiful. I weep for what will never be but I am finding peace that Kara will lives on in Lee's heart. He will always carry her in his heart and she gave him the tools he needed to let go and live. It's sad but beautiful all at the same time.

*nods* I haven't responded to your post yet, but it was also a thing of beauty. Your thoughts on Kara giving Lee what he needs to continue forward are spot on, IMO.

It's sad but beautiful all at the same time.

Yep. Truly, it is. *wibbles*
