Daily Pilots Post: A long time ago, we used to be friends

[thrace-adama.livejournal.com]

Hiya, shippers! Thanks so much for the great comments so far this week.

One of my favorite things about the Kara/Lee 'ship is how multifaceted it is. Pilots are friends, coworkers (buddy!cops ftw!), pseudo siblings, lovers. They're everything to each other, really.

Today, in celebration of the friendship aspect of their relationship, my question for you is this: What are your favorite Kara/Lee friendship scenes/moments, either in canon or fic? Feel free to illustrate! (And hey, if there's anything you always wanted to see for them but didn't, go ahead and share that too.)

Unfortunately my favorite is a deleted scene: The morning after "Colonial Day" when Lee is teasing Kara about getting laid until he realizes she's really in a bad mood. But the very beginning of the triad scene later when she comes in and he's asking how she feels and she gives him this pat on the shoulder, is also a little moment that I love, especially in the context with the deleted scenes because it shows that when it's nothing personal she can never stay mad at Lee for very long.

As far as stuff we never got? Any flashbacks of them getting over the awkwardness of the night they first met and actually becoming friends (I don't interpret them as not knowing each other very well prior to the miniseries, it just doesn't make any sense to me.) And I would have liked to see more of them being competitive with each other, especially if it was over little stupid things like...dart throwing and gambling.

I would have liked more "friend" scenes in S1 and S2 - just hanging out or being pals. More than anything, though, I want MORE new footage - deleted scenes that have been recently discovered, new stills, new commentary. I just miss them so much. :(

Favorite friendship scene. One word: Hose.

I really dig the good cop/bad cop routine in Colonial Day and the "worst CAG in the history of CAGs" scene in Act of Contrition. Plus, obvs, the water hose scene. ADORABLE.

I love the 1000th landing scene in the pilots' bunkroom when they are painting the helmet. Red paint and metaphors aside, it's just Lee and Kara easy and happy.

Definitely scenes of them being adorable pilots. I think my favorite is the mini, I thought you were dead/in hack exchange. They were just so wonderfully young there. I'd also include Hose and the 1000th landing because of the giddy fun they were having in both.

From later in the series I'd have to say through the halls with guns during the attempt to take the ship. They were just so together there.

I don't have time to comment really, but the title of this post was the same as a quaint little fic I remember liking on FFN: A Long Time Ago We Used To Be Friends (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2707222/1/A_Long_Time_Ago_We_Used_To_Be_Friends) so I thought I would do a drive by fic rec. ;)

Have a lovely rewatch peeps, wish I could join you but we're off camping.
