There are really going to be SO MANY pregnancies that they're going to REVERSE THE EXTINCTION OF THE ENTIRE SPECIES?

MTE.

He knows exactly what Zarek is, and that he's just doing what he's doing to destabilize the government because he's a chaos-loving sociopath, but Baltar is all YOU MAKE A POINT ABOUT THE LACK OF WORSHIP OF MEEEEEEEEEEEE.

I lol'd. Gaius is a scary dude. It's okay I love him anyway.

Man, Bill is a great officer, but he must have been a terrible father.

Pretty much, yes.

YES THERE WAS THE UNFORTUNATE SHOOTING INCIDENT but that was so incredibly not her fault, which he absolutely knows, and as he finally admits after she bares her soul to him, it wasn't about that at all. He just lets her punish herself, and openly throws it in her face, knowing how deeply broken up she is about it.

Well, in Lee's defense, he did look properly ashamed of himself a moment after throwing it in her face. Also, re: Kara loves him so much. Whether you read it as platonic or romantic, she just loves him so much. - I think it's ( ... )

I really enjoy Gaius. Even when I am like WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU WERE YOU RAISED BY FLYING MONKEYS, which is pretty much all the time, I just like him. What can I say, CRAZY SPEAKS TO ME.

Lee is a guy who very much does not know that shit

True. But Kara tells him, as best as she is able, over and over and over again. She's always the one that breaks when they fight. Always. And he uses any means necessary to push her to it, including shaming her for sex (KLG) and throwing her around (Home, I think?) and she still takes it - because she's a childhood abuse victim, it doesn't upset her like would be good for her - and a little bit of self-examination would show him that he's taking his problems out on her, which isn't okay ( ... )

YEAH. WHAT YOU SAID.

a little bit of self-examination would show him that he's taking his problems out on her, which isn't okay.

Indeed. TBH though, it's part of why I love their dynamic. That sort of shit happens all. the. time. in friendships. So, I appreciate Lee/Kara a whole lot because it's realistically dysfunctional, as opposed to... something unrelatable and melodramatic.

all any non-friendly tension does is make them whittle down their trust for each other even more furiously. I am for sure not someone who thinks sex ALWAYS ruins friendships, but in this case, I would really be worried.

Oh, you have v. good reason to be worried. They're very much capable of destroying the other, easily. And shutting up now.

YOU DID WARN ME BUT STILL CRY CRY. I don't hate her either, though, even though I was going NO NO YOU ARE MAKING A TERRIBLE MISTAKE I just felt for her so much. Adama I did kind of hate because he was being all sleazily paternalistic and honestly OOC from my interpretation of the character but Roslin....she was going through something man.

the tears, aren't acting, Mary McDonnell was FURIOUS with this story-line

I WISH HER NAME HAD LOTS OF 'I'S I COULD DOT WITH LITTLE HEARTS. She's ultimately the reason why I wasn't like THIS IS THE WORST EPISODE EVER. You could just feel what she was going through.

How much do you LOVE Head!Baltar? He just thrilled me.

OH MY GOD, that was such a good choice. I love it. It's such a great contrast to the guy Baltar is now, too, because I have no doubt Six is remembering him from the way he was before the attacks, but now it's visibly not who he is any more. I love the mystery and scariness around Gaius/Six in general, but having some untouched, pre-attack Gaius in Six's head brings it to a ( ... )

That is such a fantastic story! I would be enjoying the show regardless, but something about the whole con culture where the people involved make it clear that they thought so hard about the show and seem to have enjoyed doing it...just kind of adds something. IDK.
