Piloty episodes: UB, Captain's Hand, Scar, Home I&II, Razor
Kara personality trait: Bravery
Lee personality trait: Earnestness
Kara hair: Long S4 in a ponytail
Lee hair: Pegasus!
Angsty moment: Captain's Hand "Here we go" YUMMMMMMM!

Hug: I am torn between the end of the Dance hug and the Capt Hand hug. So different, but wonderful!
Banter: I like the Olympic Carrier "Fully stimulated" banter

Quiet moment: Kara's expression of surprise when Lee asks, "Are you okay?" in Scar. Brilliant!
Buddy!cops moment: KOBOL! I love everything Kobol chooses to be.
Deleted or extended scene: The UB quiet "I love you" from each of them. There are bits I don't like, but that moment is perfect.

ALL THE ANSWERS!
Date: 2011-12-05 02:17 pm (UTC)Usual BSG fandom activities: reading fic, reading meta, making long-ass comments on said fic, in this comm, and in other pilotshippers' journals. Lots of squee and lots of sobbing too.
Other fandoms you love: Harry Potter, Firefly, Buffy and a ton of other stuff (I'm really fond of Korean Boys Before Flowers, Battle Royale, xxxHolic and, er, La Corda d'Oro, to name just a few).
NAME YOUR FAVORITE:
Piloty episodes: Miniseries II, Colonial Day, KLG1, Home, Final Cut, Flight of the Phoenix, all the Pegasus arc, Scar, The Captain's Hand.....frak it, I love ALL THE PILOTY EPISODES, with a special spot for Unfinished Business.
Kara personality trait: Her courage.
Lee personality trait: His tendency to try and make like he's doing fine, even when he really isn't (not admirable, but I connect to it).
Kara hair: short in S1, ponytail in S2, short again in S3, and UB flashbacks (cannot choose just one)
Lee hair: Short, especially when it does that adorable little duck's-arse flip in front (it should look assholic, but on Jamie it just looks sweet and boyish)
Angsty moment: all the pain in AoC, the punching and "would you miss me?" in KLG1, every second of their interaction in Scar, the AWFUL BEAUTIFUL PAIN that is Unfinished Business, EoJ's "trapped" moment, and most of all under the wing in Maelstrom, which I rewatched two days ago and sobbed through.
Kiss: dead tie between the Six of One brig kiss and EoJ Raptor outmaking.
Hug: at the end of The Captain's Hand.
Banter: All of it, I can't choose. But most of all the banter that covers up when they really want to kiss (----> half-naked poetry quoting and personal space invasion in Final Cut, and the back-and-forth over Chief's new bird - followed by much gazing at lips and personal space invasion, and finally by oxygen-deprived tangling together on the floor firing guns - in Flight of the Phoenix).
Handshake: Miniseries Part 2, when he pulls her out from under her Viper (the moment my heart was lost forever to those two). Followed very closely by The Captain's Hand, Six of One and Daybreak.
Quiet moment: Home 1, when Lee tells Kara he's her friend, and that he's there for her and he loves her - just seeing the change in Kara's face when she hears that simultaneously breaks my heart and makes me want to hug them both. Also, under the wing in Maelstrom - "whatever it takes." **cries**
Buddy!cops moment: Mutiny!buddycops and Lee Adama's return to being Apollo again.
Deleted or extended scene: the smaller, softer "I love you"s in UBEX, even though I prefer the aired version. Also, Six of One extended brig scene.

Kara personality trait: Passion and Strength
Lee personality trait: Empathy and selflessness
Kara hair: Kobol Pony!
Lee hair: DAYBREAK! I don’t even care, haha. He looks so wild in that field. So free from all his previous responsibilities. And I may want Kara to pull it.
Angsty moment: "Would you miss me sir?"
Kiss: The brig kiss. The kiss that said it all.
Hug: Captain's Hand. Her face!
Banter: Oxygen deprived shooting range banter 4eva!
Handshake: Six of One when neither wants to let go.
Quiet moment: "Are you sure I'm what you want?" "Yeah, you're what I want."
Buddy!cops moment: The mutiny, especially the grenade bit. Oh pilots!

Date: 2011-12-05 02:49 pm (UTC)ABOUT YOU:
Name: Ana-Maria
Location: currently: at work. seriously speaking, Bucharest, Romania
Usual BSG fandom activities: reading fic, and reading fic, and commenting (a lot) on said fic, commenting here when RL permits, squeeing and sighing a lot.
Other fandoms you love: fandoms, not so much, i mean not actively. I tend to watch all the things (as some of you might know) but i don't get really involved in fandoms. I used to, but RL again.
NAME YOUR FAVORITE:
Piloty episodes: all of them from Mini to Daybreak.
Kara personality trait: her ability to bounce back practically from everything.
Lee personality trait: his tendency to do the right thing (even if it's not the smart thing)
to Kara hair: i should go with the short pony-tail (being my current hair "style") but... short in S1
Lee hair: hmmm.... short, military style but I don't have anything against the mess from Daybreak - I even find it fitting to the situation.
Angsty moment: Kill me but I like that scene where the whole Quad is at Joe's.
Kiss: that's a hard one. I'll go with - all of them. but if i really have to choose one - the unexpected one in Home, pt 1.
Hug: He That Believeth In Me - on the hangar deck
Banter: even harder than the kiss. 33 - Do I have to smack....
Handshake: Mini, pt 2.
Quiet moment: I don't know.... the look they share after coming back from the algae planet?
Buddy!cops moment: Kobol. I love the mutiny and all, but Kobol is just to cool.
Deleted or extended scene: Memorial Wall
Pilot GIF or CAP: It will have to wait till I get home. The connection here is... no words.

Location: Rhode Island
Usual BSG fandom activities: Modding comms, writing, vidding, making horrible graphics, meta--you name it, I do it.
Other fandoms you love: BSG is my one true fandom.
NAME YOUR FAVORITE:
Piloty episodes: Captain's Hand, UBEX, The Oath, Home Pt 1, Final Cut, Flight of the Phoenix, Scar, Razor--anything where pilots have some meaningful interaction honestly.
Kara personality trait: her vibrancy
Lee personality trait: his dedication
Kara hair: love all kara hair except the mini hair
Lee hair: Short and neat -- late s1-early s2
Angsty moment: Lol. ALL OF THEM?
Kiss: The Six of One brig kiss narrowly edges out the Home surprise smooch
Hug: Weirdly--the one in LDYB2 right before she introduces him to Sam
Banter: Always. EVERYTHING.
Handshake: All of them. STOP MAKING ME CHOOSE. (Ok maybe the mini, because it's juxtaposed against everyone else hugging and kissing and that just says so damn much about pilots.)
Quiet moment: So difficult to choose. The end of UB, the end of Scar, Under the wing in maelstrom, the night on Kobol (although they talk there). IDK!
Buddy!cops moment: THE OATH! DOUBLE GUNNING LIKE THE BEST OF THEM
Deleted or extended scene: UBEX--the I love yous.

Location: Canada – WOOT!
Usual BSG fandom activities: I write ALL THE TIME. And if I read, I comment... ALWAYS.
Other fandoms you love: Really, BSG is the only one for me. And though I used to love the X-Files, but was never part of fandom. My One True Fic is a crossover for Inception, so I love that fandom too (though I never participate). I am trying to catch up on Fringe and Dr. Who, so that I can jump in. There’s a small revolution trying to get me to watch Buffy. And if The English Patient had a fandom, I’d be there too.
NAME YOUR FAVORITE:
Piloty episodes: Unfinished Business guts me. Though I also love 33 and Scar.
Kara personality trait: I have a LOT of Kara. I’m fierce, and independent. A bit of a fighter. (Bit of might be an understatement.) I’m loyal (almost to a fault) to those I love, and will forgive most things from those people.
Lee personality trait: *frowns* Not sure I actually have much of Lee in me. I suppose I’m quite fastidious about keeping my house clean. LOL Is that a Lee-ism???
Kara hair: Loved it during the UB fight.
Lee hair: Short Season 1 hair. (Yes, even the strange ice cream cone thing.)
Angsty moment: Choice 1: Under the Wing. Choice 2: Morning after Founders’ Day. YES. I totally get why she ran.
Kiss: Love the kisses in Scar.
Hug: Er... I can’t remember the episode title. The “Are We Okay” hug.
Banter: Mini and Season one pilots. Everything!
Handshake: The first one in the Mini when I suddenly went... Um. Okay? I think there’s WAY more here than I thought.
Quiet moment: I’m Lee, you’re Kara at the Memorial Wall.
Buddy!cops moment: Mutiny WOOT!
Deleted or extended scene: Watching the Olympic Carrier footage in the Razor outtakes (I think.)
Pilot GIF or CAP: Scar Drinking then Makeout FOREVER!!!

Location: Barcelona (Spain)
Usual BSG fandom activities: I’ve been in BSG fandom for a while and truth is I used to be much more active. Currently, I don’t do much except reading fic and commenting on said fic LOL. But I just love to hang around and chat and squee (and sometimes rant LOL) with my fellow K/L shippers (who also happen to share similar interests to mine). I adore my fandom peeps and my life is definitely better because of them <3
Other fandoms you love: BSG is my one true fandom (And Kara/Lee my OTP). I am not actively involved in any more fandoms, but I also enjoy shows like Fringe, The Good Wife, Sons of Anarchy, Homeland. And other miscellaneous stuff like GRR Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire (the books, though I like the TV show), some Japanese manga (particularly Ai Yazawa’s Nana) or Tana French’s Dublin Murder Squad series.
NAME YOUR FAVORITE:
Piloty episodes: UB and UBEX (that’s my favorite ep of anything ever, honestly), Captain’s Hand, Home I and II, Kobol’s Last Gleaming, Scar, the Pegasus story arc, Six of One.
Kara personality trait: Her passion and joy for living.
Lee personality trait: His quiet and restrained intensity.
Kara hair: Her short cut with bangs in UB. Very sexy and very Starbuck. Also, her messy ponytail in Home.
Lee hair: The shorter, the better. Kobol Lee, probably (the scruff looks so good on him!).
Angsty moment: A tie between the hangar scene in KLG and the almost frak in Scar.
Kiss The Six of One kiss. It kills me every time. So much passion, love and support!
Hug: Captain Hand’s.
Banter: "Do I have to smack you in the mouth, Liutenant?". Aww. LOL Also, I am very fond of the shooting range scene. But seriously, everything, their banter owns my heart.
Handshake: Captain’s Hand. They just can’t let go.
Quiet moment: The “I missed you/I missed you too” exchange in UB.
Buddy!cops moment: Kobol! Everything about Kobol is damn perfect <3 (though I adore The Oath too).
Deleted or extended scene: All the Aurora figurine stuff in the Six of One extended scene. Also, Kara’s quiet “I love you” in UBEX.
Pilot GIF or CAP:
These two are so hot. I can’t even.

Date: 2011-12-05 03:25 pm (UTC)can I join that revolution? you have to watch it. I saw it in high-school (also known as pre-history) and then again a couple of years ago and love it both times. for totally different reasons but love it all the same.
And if I read, I comment... ALWAYS.
I'm not a writer but I strongly believe in this statement. It's one of the reasons for which I have like open tabs. There are fics that I would have time to read but not enough to comment. So, I postpone the reading part until I'm able to do the commenting part.

Other fandoms you love: West Wing, Doctor Who, anything to do with classic film, especially Hitchcock, film noir and the golden age of Hollywood
NAME YOUR FAVORITE:
Piloty episodes: UB. It's a visual poem set to music. Nuff said.
Kara personality trait: Her decisiveness.
Lee personality trait: His self-control.
Kara hair: It's controversial, but S4.5 FLAT IRON OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.

Angsty moment: Um.. aren't they all? ; P
Kiss: BRIG!KISS!!! ACCEPT NO SUBSTITUTES!!!
Hug: I'm kind of weird in that I don't get all squishy about their hugs. Probably the one at the end of UB if I had to choose.
Banter: "Not funny."
Handshake: I'll take 'em all.
Quiet moment: ISLANDED. As much as I hate the finale, I love S4 pilots like WHOA.
Buddy!cops moment: MUTINY!!!!

Location: Rio de Janeiro
Usual BSG fandom activities: I read lots and lots of fics, comment on most of them, throw in my two cents in discussions here and LAD and KTL
Other fandoms you love: The X-files is the only other show I got to love as much as I love BSG
NAME YOUR FAVORITE:
Piloty episodes: UBEX, Scar
Kara personality trait: Loyalty to those I love
Lee personality trait: I see a lot of Lee in myself, so I'd say integrity, pragmatism, a difficult balance between idealism and realism, a very private personality
Kara hair: I love her short hair
Lee hair: Late season 3/early season 4
Angsty moment: The morning after in UB
Kiss: The brig
Hug: The "People gotta have trust" one
Banter: "YOu have a brain?", and during the towel scene, when Kara wanted to be a suspect on the threats against Tigh

Quiet moment: I'm Lee, you're Kara...
Buddy!cops moment: The mutiny
Deleted or extended scene: The brig scene
Pilot GIF or CAP: I can't pick just one or two.

Date: 2011-12-05 04:32 pm (UTC)Name: Dana
Location: North Carolina
Usual BSG fandom activities: writing fic, reading fic, making graphics, writing meta, got a bunch of vids in a list to make when I have time, general squee and discussion--if it can be done I will do it
Other fandoms you love: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Firefly, Dollhouse (pretty much anything Joss has touched), um... just started Doctor Who, I'm fairly partial to the newer (good) Marvel movies, I'm addicted to classic film, oh Caprica (how did I forget that?), I'll read watch or play anything sci-fi or fantasy (so Final Fantasies, Zelda, various movies and books etc.) I don't know... I found BSG and nothing can dislodge it from the top-spot
NAME YOUR FAVORITE:
Piloty episodes: Act of Contrition and You Can't Go Home Again (that was when I jumped on board the Angst cruise), Colonial Day, Home 1&2 (all the Arrow of Apollo stuff kills me with its blatant Freudian symbolism), Final Cut, Scar, The Captain's Hand, Unfinished Business... I'm not going to keep going because if they even have a tiny moment in an episode I will forever love said episode.
Kara personality trait: I absolutely adore how emotionally insecure she is and how that in no way detracts from her baddassery. Which is where much of the angst comes from, but every time she screws something up I'm like "I feel ya, gurl!" *overidentified*
Lee personality trait: I'll just quote Laura Roslin: "My only concern about you is that you're so hellbent on doing the right thing that you sometimes don't do the smart thing." That's generally cited as a character flaw and a reason people often tell me they don't like Lee. But I love me some character flaws. Lee tries so hard.
Kara hair: Shortest of the short. Can't decide between the mini (yes, the mini) and Season 1, but probably Season 1.
Lee hair: his too-long hair in Season 4
Angsty moment: um... all of them. Lee's face when Adama tells him Kara got married never fails to make me bawl my eyes out (then again, there are few moments between these too that fail to make me bawl my eyes out).
Kiss: "Six of One" brig kiss (which seems to be the general consensus--it's just their entire relationship rolled up into one little scene and it's amazing)
Hug: "He That Believeth in Me" on the flight deck
Banter: "Lee Adama loves me," and the attendant dialogue in "Home"
Handshake: the whole handshake, hug, "trust" bit in "Resurrection Ship"
Quiet moment: "Are we ok?"
Buddy!cops moment: All of "Colonial Day"
Deleted or extended scene: the end of "Unfinished Business"
Pilot GIF or CAP:
(You said two, right? I'm sure you said two.)
Also, feel absolutely free to friend me, but my fic all gets posted at

Location: Washington, DC
Usual BSG fandom activities: Reader, commenter
Other fandoms you love: Torchwood
NAME YOUR FAVORITE:
Piloty episodes: Um... all of them! Why must I pick?!
Kara personality trait: Her complete fierceness.
Lee personality trait: His tendency to overly intellectualize things.
Kara hair: I really like her chin-length hair in Daybreak (http://www.frak-that.com/419/images/419_cap104.jpg), but also think her long hair is beautiful in Unfinished Business (http://www.frak-that.com/309/images/309_cap020.jpg). I'm also a sucker for her ponytail...
Lee hair: Super short. Say no to the wig, JB!
Angsty moment: From "Scar", when Kara says:" I am hung up on a dead guy, OK? And it is pissing me off." Lee retorts: "You are fine with the dead guys. It's the living ones you can't deal with." She slaps him, kisses him, and leaves. So angsty!
Kiss: When Kara returns with the Arrow of Apollo in "Home Pt. 1," closely followed by the brig kiss in "Six of One."
Hug: The trust hug in "Resurrection Ship, Part II" or when Kara returns in "He That Believeth in Me."
Banter: In "Home Pt. 1" when Lee tells Kara he loves her and she says "no takebacks." Followed by the scene in "Final Cut" where Kara knows poetry and wants to be a suspect regarding Tigh's harassment.
Handshake: "Are we okay?" in "Captain’s Hand."
Quiet moment: From "Islanded in a Stream of Stars": “Because I’m Lee. And you’re Kara. And the rest of it isn’t worth a damn.”
Buddy!cops moment: Ready to shoot Cylons from the sky in "Home, Pt. 2." Also the one during the mutiny with Kara's shooting with arms crossed.
Deleted or extended scene: Classic: when they say "I love you" in Unfinished Business.
