Right from the lingering I-thought-you-were-dead handshake in the mini, I was roped in. I knew the series would be angsty as soon as the best she could say was just that it was good to be wrong. And the handshake just kinda' hangs there. Well, and the little thing she does with her tongue when he walks away...
Colonial Day was huge for my fangirlness, as evidenced in this shameless pimping of my first K/L story (http://dread-pirate.dreamwidth.org/3305.html). I remember scanning the crowd for them while Papadama & Roslyn talked, and fussing over Lee looking lost, all by himself in the crowd, when Kara moved on to Gaius. And the fights in Kobol's Last Gleaming... So many chances for them to say what they weren't saying! I always wondered how exactly Lee KNEW she'd slept with Baltar. In my head, Gaius said more off camera. He had to for Lee to take the drunken card game conversation for anything other that Baltar being turned down. If you watch it and try to hear it from Lee's perspective, Baltar sounds dumped, not frakked-with-another-man's-name-on-her-lips.
And, of course, Scar. I loved, at first, that Lee put on the brakes because Kara seemed off. The fact that he cared enough to stop things was an excellent starting point, but then she deflected with the no us business. I'll admit though that my favorite moment was the slap-kiss. I still don't know what that kiss was FOR in her mind. Apology for the slap, one for the road because shirtless Lee is not something you just walk away from, just an involuntary reaction from still being hot and bothered? I had forgotten how the rest of the episode puts them right back to "normal". *sigh*
I could ramble all day about my love of pilots and their near misses.
