Thanks to everyone who participated in yesterday's post about piloty sartorial goodness (and badness). If you haven't done so already, it's not too late! You can still vote in the poll, post some picspam, add some snark to the mix, etc!
I tried to find the post on another comm that inspired this post, but that failed, so... please take a leap with me. Today, I'm asking you to do a bit of out-of-the-box thinking. Here are some questions for you to answer.*
What are some things we don't know about Kara, Lee, and the two of them together?
I'll start the Viper into the launch tube with some answers of my own below. Post away, y'all!
*These can be secrets, stories, fic recommendations, etc. Long, crackish, poetic, or visual responses especially encouraged!

Date: 2012-01-18 12:34 pm (UTC)1) Actually knows how to cook, but prefers to let Lee do it.
2) Has slept with just as many women as men, but who's keeping score?
3) Would like to airlock Lee's blue sweater.
Lee:
1) Occasionally wishes he'd been a bartender instead of a CAG.
2) Likes to sing karaoke even though he's terrible at it.
3) Steals Kara's towels sometimes and thinks it's hilarious when she doesn't notice.
Kara & Lee:
1) Have tiny tattoos dedicated to each other.
2) Like to host key parties.
3) Run in at least one marathon a year together.

Date: 2012-01-18 01:14 pm (UTC)1. Lee cleans up after Kara and doesn't complain.
2. Lee desperately wants to have a family, but only mentioned it that once. Didn't go so well.
3. Lee knows Kara will always climb back into bed with him no matter how angry she is.
Kara:
1. Kara pranks Lee at least once a week. He gives her his "patient smile" and she laughs even harder.
2. A couple of months back, Kara thought she was pregnant and ran to Helo. She never told Lee when she wasn't.
3. Kara believes Lee when he says he'll never leave her, but hasn't given up her apartment in Delphi yet.
Kara/Lee:
1. They never talk about what happened last equinox. Kara's still pissed and Lee's happy to pretend it never happened.
2. They touch all the time, even during the boring regular life bits.
3. They're not getting married and everyone is okay with that.

Date: 2012-01-18 01:44 pm (UTC)1. When she first came back from New Caprica, she didn't notice. It wasn't really until she heard Narcho and Bellsen gossiping about it like old Picon fishwives in the head that she started paying attention, noticing the way the dress blue jacket pulled around the buttons and the once sharp lines of his jaw were obscured now. She told herself, and would have told anyone else, if they'd asked (which they didn't), that with Kacey and Sam and that frakking cylon and all the other crap going on in her head, she didn't have time or inclination to give two shits the ever-expanding waistline of the CAG. But the truth of the matter was that Kara hadn't even noticed. When she looked at him, she just saw Lee. And after nearly two years of not seeing him, she didn't really care if there was more of him or less of him than before. It was enough that he was there again, where she could see him, every day.
(Running late--more later hopefully!)

Is there any way to mix this and Kara's #2 into a single thing? IDK.

Date: 2012-01-18 02:21 pm (UTC)Psh, what the hell is a piece of paper and a ceremony when you're frakking destined to be together?
no subject
Date: 2012-01-18 03:02 pm (UTC)I don't think either of them want children.
On marriage:
Lee doesn't want a piece of paper-- he just wants her.
Kara doesn't want a temple ceremony, not because she doesn't believe in it, but because being with Lee is more about choice. Her choice to stay, every day. To always come back. And she doesn't want any kind of cover, any divine obligation that would make her devotion to him any less than what it is.
To everyone else:
She tries to hide it, but she works so unbelivably hard to be good at what she does.
He's really incredibly introverted. And pretty darn shy when it comes down to it.

Date: 2012-01-18 03:06 pm (UTC)Lee can totally play the piano. (And he's really good at it too.) *g*
Sorry, y'all. Total head!canon, but that one is not going anywhere. ; )

That would be fabulous--hope someone can do it!

Date: 2012-01-18 03:15 pm (UTC)1. Actually more of a cuddler than Lee.
2. Still trying to convince Lee that if she can cut her own hair, she can cut his.
3. Hoped Lee would call during those two years apart, in spite of everything.
Lee:
1. Thinks Sam is hot.
2. Seriously considered telling base admin about Kara and Zak.
3. Deliberately scheduled shifts so he could be in the showers with Kara.
Kara/Lee
They're both actually glad they didn't have sex on the table. Once they were sober they knew they couldn't have lived with the guilt.

Date: 2012-01-18 03:18 pm (UTC)OMG yes! I've thought that too!
And this:
Seriously considered telling base admin about Kara and Zak.
I imagine him being so pissed when he first found out about their relationship.
Thinks Sam is hot.
**cracks the hell up**
I mean, doesn't everyone? ;P

Date: 2012-01-18 03:34 pm (UTC)1. One of the things she hates most about the end of the worlds is that she can't paint anymore. It's one of her few healthy outlets for her frustrations.
2. Wishes she had more friends, but isn't quite sure how to make them.
3. Would actually be a really great mother. (Sorry. I had to say it. This is my firm belief!)
Lee:
1. Is a hell of a cook. Used to watch a lot of cooking shows.
2. In a perfect world, he'd also garden and grow the things he'd cook with.
3. On the days where he's considered just having a lazy day, he can't actually stay in his pajamas all day. He will get restless and bored by about 3 PM.
Both:
-While Lee is a vanilla kind of guy, Kara can persuade him into any number of seriously kinky situations. He kind of likes when she takes charge.
-Even once they are together, it takes Kara a very VERY long time before she'll ever let Lee see her in a weak moment. She always storms off before that happens. But eventually Lee sees that her anger is masking some fear, and Kara sees that sometimes the comfort sex is as good as the make up sex.
