DPP: There's Something About Kara

[cynicalshadows.livejournal.com]

Yesterday you were asked to be petty and pick sides in the ongoing confrontations of our beloved pilots. It was interesting that many people sided with Lee although they actually liked Kara more. Obviously, there's something about Kara. What is it Shipper Nation? Why do we love her so despite her flaws? Use anything and everything (pics, gifs, vids, fic, meta) to support your reasoning, and remember, pilots call her Starbuck; we can call her God.

I think one of the things that connect so many people to Kara is that fact that she is utterly and completely human in her behaviours. She is the person we all are, at one point or another, in our lives. She runs away from the things she fears, she fights when she shouldn’t, she drinks too much, she screws around... and she is still, unabashedly vibrant despite it all. No matter what she has endured, she has a tenacity for life that draws us in.

She is powerful, strong... and broken.

For me, at least, it is the last quality that makes her so endearing.
