DPP: You are all Cordially Invited to.....

 

We’ve talked at length about Kara/Lee and everything and anything related to them. So naturally, I was thinking about their BRIGHT, SHINY FUTURE with a porch swing and rugrats.

So, let’s start from the beginning, (well, kinda)

Proposal:

How do you think Lee would propose? Or would it be Kara, because she is Kara?

Would be something like this, a fic where Lee writes on the star charts so when you connect each star location, it spells, “Will you marry me?”

Are there fics out there that has your favorite proposal?

What would they wear during the ceremony? What kind of rings would they wear?

Wedding Vows:

What would be in their wedding vows? What would Kara/Lee say during the ceremony? Would it be the traditional vows, something they wrote, something sweet or something funny?

Wedding Song:

We can all agree that many songs relating to pilots are sad and angsty. So, this is the song that makes them think of each other, their song for their fresh start. What would be their song? What song would their first dance as husband and wife?

Honeymoon:

Where would they go on their honeymoon? If they were Earth 2.0, where would they go? If they were in our timeline, where would they go?

Where would they live?

If in our timeline, would it be in the city, or somewhere more secluded?

What about Earth 2.0? Would they be with other Colonials or on their own?

Feel free to add anything else I’ve missed in this fairy tale!

I wanted an upbeat topic to kick of the weekend. Plus I really wanted to use [livejournal.com profile] sci_fi_shipper‘s lovely wedding photos she created.

Ha, this is fun!

Who would propose? I honestly can't choose. If Kara proposed it would be a dare and she would think it was hilarious to spin Lee's world around. If Lee proposed it would be all serious tones and intense eye frakking. In fanfic world my favourite scenario is when they 'have' to get married for whatever contrived reason. That way they can both pout and protest at the prospect but secretly enjoy it.

Ceremony. Kara's religion trumps Lee's atheism. Private ceremony with a priest and family (papadama & Helo).

Vows. Simple, honest (and brief) words spoken without fuss.

Song. Bear's Kara/Lee love theme.

Honeymoon. I picture them marrying on Galactica, so they would honeymoon on Cloud Nine or Rising Star. Someone would paint 'Just Married' on their Vipers.

Live. Married quarters on Galactica and once they made it to earth they would build Kara's cabin in the woods and Lee's porch swing and Kara would have at least one (unplanned) rugrat and laugh when it pissed on Lee's knee. When they realise their marriage actually works and they're fairly decent at being parents and don't have to repeat their own parent's mistakes, the second child will be planned. But all this domestic bliss would only happen after a few years of marriage because I think they would come close to splitting up at least two or three times in the early stages because they are both so volatile and seem to love misunderstanding/doubting one another and it would take time before they would realise they deserve to be happy together and realise the other won't leave them.

Their kids won't be tall but they'll be gorgeous and loaded with charm. :)

Well done.

I couldn't have said this part better...Who would propose? I honestly can't choose. If Kara proposed it would be a dare and she would think it was hilarious to spin Lee's world around. If Lee proposed it would be all serious tones and intense eye frakking.

Absolutely LOVE the "just married" on the Vipers. Chief and Cally and the deck gang would do it as a surprise.
