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…

So, kind of everybody made their confessions. I joined in some, I agreed silently to others and disagreed also silently to some opinions. I'm late to say my own due to RL. So here it goes nothing, because it's nothing really new i guess.

Firstly, i case there is somebody that doesn't know, I relate for very personal reasons to Lee. Probably more than I related to any other character. The only other that comes to mind is Dean W. So, in light of this, my opinions are always going to differ a little from the ones of you who relate so deeply with Kara as I know some do.

On the from of what i was really bugged about:
- Fat!Lee because it was going on for a while. I can get the fact that he let himself go for some time and sulked (?). But to go on like that for a year or something while still having a sort of a good relationship with his wife and the admiration and respect of his crew is strange, and out of character, whatever you want to call it.
- While I like Sam, I started to dislike Dee when she proved that for as much as she loved Apollo and Major Adama, she really didn't liked or understood Lee. And the fact that they made her leave when he leaves the military and sort of come back when he is the VP doesn't go well at all with me.
- Somebody mentioned this and I should say it also. I liked Cally but not what they did after she died. Making her cheat like that on the Chief... nop, not good.
- Story wise I can rationalize a lot of things, and I'm willing to accept a lot of things that I don't like but I have a BIG problem with DB2. and is not the poof. as i said a lot of times, I have a 'peace treaty' with the poof and reading fics helps maintaining it. My problem with the end is not that Kara poofed (even though i would of really liked a hug there) is that Lee is all alone. That is all sorts of wrong for me. I mean, the guy was there and supported everybody on their journeys - Adama, Roslin, Kara, even Baltar. who is there to help him in his journey on E2.0? I ask this because in my personal canon his destiny doesn't stop at helping people with theirs and idk, shaking on an alliance with D'Ánna and sending the FTL ready ships into the sun. For me his destiny is to lead the remaining of people in this new adventure. And he is all alone. And not only romantically (don't get me started on the waste of a perfectly good bunch of DNA) but in all of the other ways.

ok, i should probably stop here. even if i probably left a lot out but still.

I hear you on the Lee being all alone business- the show portrayed his ending as if this was finally his chance to grow into himself, lay down his burdens and what not. I thought it was a damn tragedy, personally. To be in an unfamiliar world with all your nearest and dearest (Kara, the Admiral, Dee) dead or gone? Sounds like a very bleak existence to me.

I completely agree about Lee being all alone too. I could've made peace with the poof had there been some kind of resolution between K/L, even more so if he would've had his friends and family to go back to, but as we all know, that didn't happen. :(

[wand3rlust.livejournal.com]

working on it. i'm on the point of making an ally out of my nephew. at 11 he likes robots, fire-fights and the oh-so-infamous red-dress.

[wand3rlust.livejournal.com]

lol of course he likes the red dress. ;)

This is why I really hate the poof too. Why Lee needed to be alone I will never truly understand.

[anamarya.livejournal.com]

I really can't. i mean he is this perfect guy - in his own human, flawed way. and he has everything: brains, looks, training, ambition, social position, even moral standards. BUT he has no one.

LOL!! So true, what a waste, it doesn't make any sense! ;)

(and yes, I completely agree about Lee being all alone. It's so sad. He always deserved much more than what he actually got --and the same goes for Kara).
