Tigh/Ellen: Epic Picspam of Epicness

May 19, 2011 08:07

Okay, this is a totally weird hour to post this, but it was done last night and uploading, so -- AAH WITHOUT FURTHER ADO.

Last month, yetanothermask won a picspam from me in the help_japan auction, and she commissioned me to do a Saul/Ellen picspam. I GOT A LITTLE CARRIED AWAY, LABOR OF LOVE, ETC. Presented without comment: (okay, I lied, now there's commentary)






~ACT ONE~
Wherein Ellen Tigh comes back from the dead. Wherein she instantly establishes herself as Saul's best friend and worst enabler; she's also kind of a grown-up and yet less mature Number Six. Wherein she is manipulative and clingy to an extent that would be annoying if they weren't also Ridiculously Adorable together. Wherein they fight and shag and get very, very drunk. Wherein everyone else looks at them like O_o most of the time, but they're not bothered because they are in their own little Tighs world. Also there's some weird episode in there where a guy tried to kill them. Idk.































~ACT TWO~
Wherein their relationship takes a turn for the tragic. Wherein they settle on New Caprica in stylish winter wear the very same day it's invaded, and for the next couple of months Cavil makes sure that they both have THE WORST time there out of everyone. Wherein Ellen does something misguided and unforgivably stupid to save him. Wherein Saul does something even more misguided and unforgivably stupid to save her. Wherein Saul spends the entire rest of season three and 4.0 with Ellen hanging over him like a sad drunken ghost.























~ACT THREE~
Wherein it turns out Ellen and Saul are actually genius Cylons who already survived a different apocalypse 2,000 years ago, because this show - this show. ♥ It's just that insane. Wherein Ellen comes back from the dead, again. Wherein they have yet another giddy reunion, but then Ellen finds out about his weird incestuous rebound relationship and turns into a Disney Villain for about an hour. Wherein her attempts to burn both Caprica and Tigh to the ground and salt the earth work a little too well even for her and she does some remorseful damage control. Wherein they walk off into the sunrise together at the end, because there seems to be a theme of the most frakked up people earning it the most, and I will never argue with that -- but not before the MOST TWISTEDLY ADORABLE FLASHBACK SEQUENCE EVER that's only on the DVD. :)































~THE END~



All screencaps and coloring by me.

Also, still taking commentary requests, which I'll get to soon.
