DPP: Confession

[kdbleu.livejournal.com]

Monday of us who confessed to not liking Maelstrom, despite it being a Kara-centric episode. So I was wondering what other deep dark confessions we have.

I’ll go first. I find Scar absolutely painful to watch with exception of the scene where she and Lee drink alone together and when they make out. I cried the first time I watched Kara in the film room and have only made it half way through that scene since.

Now it’s your turn…

Mmmh… When I first watched Maelstrom I was ok with it –mainly because I knew Kara would eventually come back and I had so much hope for her and Lee right then… Now, in retrospect, I don’t like it –I know that Maelstrom is supposed to be read in a “positive” way, as Kara finally makes some sort of peace with his mum and willingly chooses to go into the nebula to fulfill her destiny--, but the way I see it know… well, it’s just her comitting suicide, and I don’t see anything beautiful in this twisted, horrifying “peace” as she kills herself. Ugh. (That being said, I do love the under the wing scene. I think it’s one of their most mature interactions –all about trust, acceptance, growth. And underneath the friendship, I always sensed a strong romantic vibe. I always thought that if they could get past all the obstacles ahead, they would ultimately be in a place where they could make their relationship work.

As for Scar? I love every bit of it.

My dark confession? (well, I don’t think it’s dark at all…). I dislike K/S so much. I just can’t. And it’s funny, because I used to be ok with Sam, and Kara’s love for Sam --although their dynamic in S3 always made me cringe, I always accepted Kara’s love for him (you can love two people in different ways, right?). But then RDM tried to make it all about K/S, and I just couldn’t take it. Kara’s “I love you” to Sam, if totally understandable given the circumstances, makes me cry for all the wrong reasons. It seemed so unfair to me. Sigh.

That's exactly how I think of Maelstrom.

This! It's the biggest problem in the BSG universe that people can't find 'peace' or 'closure' without killing themselves. I mean what does that say to people who are struggling with issues from their past? It's so dangerous!
