DPP: Switch it up!
Mar. 28th, 2012 08:13 amWhat if you could switch a pilot with any other BSG character in a particular scene or arc? What if Lee started the mutiny instead of Gaeta? How about if Kara became a religious cult leader (with a harem!) after her return from the maelstrom instead of Baltar? Or what if one of the pilots were the one to figure out who the final five were instead of Cally?

Kara the Cult Leader!

Lee discovers the Final Five! Oh Noes!
What would it mean for their characters individually...and together? Would switching roles with anyone in particular help pilots get together or hinder it? (I'm not really thinking Sam or Dee here, though certainly cases could be made for both of them as well.)
Talk it out, prompt a fic, or write a scene featuring a switched perspective!

Also, I'd like to see Kara going to the Black Market instead of Lee. I don't know how that would work, but maybe instead of prostitution she goes there to get high or just to lose control in a way she can't anywhere else. Mmmm. This gives me tiny fic bunnies. Anyone else?

"Go away!"
"How shall we go away, master?"
"You gave us a sign, you brought us here!"
"I didn't bring you here, you followed me, you numbskulls!"
Except the crazy people would be RIGHT she would be the Chosen One and halfway to being a god.

DO EEEEET! <3

Date: 2012-03-28 04:59 pm (UTC)As for Lee, I think he would have looked tortured and started arresting them, and then started listening to their arguments, and then looked super-tortured, and maybe they would have found some compelling way of talking him into being complicit with them? One of Lee's best qualities is that he can be argued into and out of things.
