DPP Color Week: Green

[sammy567.livejournal.com]

Welcome!  Sorry for the late post!  RL kept me away.  Previously, for the DPP Color week, we've had:

RED on Monday: What does the color red mean to you? To pilots? (So many wonderful ideas!)
ORANGE on Tuesday: Love or hate it?  (So far, it's been mostly a forum to announce one's love of orange!)
YELLOW on Wednesday: What are your shiny happy futures for pilots? (The discussion of "canon" events have been fantastic)

Today, we have:

Green

The color of trees and ambrosia!  Moving towards the other end of the color spectrum, green is a soothing and relaxing color used to help calm us physically and mentally, easing anxiety and stress.  What relaxes you?  How about pilots?  Where do they get their R&R?  What does green mean to pilots?  Lastly, what's the first thing to come to mind when you think of GREEN?

Nothing like a campfire outside for pilots to relax by.

Hmmm, green... I think of flight uniforms and Kobol:

Oh, and the adorable scene with Kara and Lee and the water hose:

Yay, my favourite colour! The first thing that comes to mind with BSG (and there are a LOT of things that come to mind) is the colour of Kara's eyes:




(oddly enough, almost the same colour as Dee's despite the fact that they look nothing alike otherwise)

and other things, like the green of the flight suits and BDUs



and of course Kobol, and then finally, the scene of pilots' last goodbye *sob* at least the place was beautiful



On a happier note, there's also the grass of the Cloud Nine lawn in Colonial Day where pilots behaved like big kids for a minute - lots of greenery on that ship in fact:


And, lest we forget, what the entire crew of Galactica likes to drink :)

Hooray for picspams!! Those caps were all the first things to came to mind when I wrote this post.

GREEN? Well, commenting here at the last minute, I'd have to say the GREEN-EYED MONSTER! Lee in his pique of jealousy and judgment about Kara sleeping with Baltar. The Green Meanie!

Makes me wish I had that green Hulk icon of Lee. Anyone??

[winegums.livejournal.com]

Awwwwwww, poor jealous bb.

[kdbleu.livejournal.com]

Jealous was the first thing I thought of too.

[sammy567.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I thought of Lee when I wrote this post, and his green envy. If I had found the green Hulk icon, that would have been awesome to use!!

Tara's got Lee's "Incredible Sulk" icon over HERE (http://taragel.livejournal.com/2010/05/19/). I'm pretty sure amaliak made it :)

Thank you! Yes! LOLOL. It seems appropriate for the color of the day. :)

More than anything, green to me is a soothing colour, the colour of peace but also of growing things.

On some small level it soothed me that pilots' last scene together was in a place that was so green and beautiful - if there was a perfect colour for where they were emotionally at that stage, that was it. If Kara hadn't gone poof, that is :(

Aw, how poetic. Where's workerbee?? She'd like that.

Related to Pilots, green makes me think of their uniforms (flight suits and BDUs), Kobol and the lawn of Cloud 9.
But green is also the color of hope, in French we say "Vert, j'espère" ('Green, let's hope' would be a literal translation) and I had so much hope for Pilots in Season 4 until Daybreak and the poof...
