Isn't there going to be a BSG movie thing or two, like the miniseries? If so, it's not really over just yet. I'm three eps behind, oh noes, best get to that before tomorrow afternoon.

SPRING! We've had snowdrops been and gone and now everything is covered in daffodils, yey. And in case that wasn't enough, I can tell it's spring cos that frakking bird is back, the one that sounds just like our house phone!

*spring hugs*

There is both a miniseries and a spinoff in the works, but both are prequels. So one way or another, the story ends tonight, I'm fairly sure. And while I will almost certainly end up watching "The Plan" (the mini), I can't say I'm too excited about anything I've heard about Caprica (the spinoff). I mean, who knows--I will almost certainly check it out if/when it happens. But this particular story with these particular characters is ending.

I think it's just as well, too. I am going to enjoy rewatching, and I'm going to enjoy writing the fics I still want to write for this fandom, and continuing to love it in that way, but I don't need, or frankly want, any more canon after this.

*spring hug back atcha*

Ahh ok. I thought the mini was a follow on. Do you have a safe room thingy for when you go cold turkey? ;)

Do you have a safe room thingy for when you go cold turkey? ;)

???

Who said anything about going cold turkey? ;) I'm not going anywhere with respect to this show: I'm writing one fic and mulling ideas for a couple of others, and I intend to commence on a rewatch at some point in the relatively near future. No turkeys for me, cold or otherwise.

But given my disappointment with a lot of what has happened in 4.5, I'm almost relieved that it's ending, to be honest. The ratio of awesome:really not cool has been (at least to my mind) highly unfavorable of late, and I'm a strong proponent of "quit while you're ahead." Or in this case, perhaps, "quit while you can still salvage some bits of awesome from the ever-growing pile of WTF." Oh show!

*hugs you tight and refuses to let go*

Miss you already! Especially because you completely stole my post for tomorrow, quite possibly verbatim. And that makes me laugh and cry all at the same time, because, yeah. This.

But among everything else this show and fandom has brought across my path, I will always love it best for an excellent fic that inspired a comment that inspired a conversation (the first of countless) that led to the best friendship I've ever had.

*more hugs*

*hugs you back as tightly as possible*

Miss you, too!!! I trust the flight home all worked like it was supposed to? Or at least worked well enough that you made it home in one piece!

[gabolange]

The whole travel process went quite smoothly! Even with those obnoxious tiny airplanes! And I am home in one piece, though all sorts of tired--smooth or no, it was still eight and a half hours of travel--and will shortly be off to dream of inexpensive direct flights to wherever you happen to be!

*squish*
