Acrostic Love

[rachelindeed.livejournal.com]

Greetings all!  Thank you so much for your wonderful contributions on the 4th, I laughed a lot and learned new things about Kara and Lee and the BSG writers' sad continuity issues.  All in a day's work -- kudos!  For today's entry, I thought we could play some little word games that would be a bit less fiendishly difficult than Taragel's awesome challenge from last week.  Hence, acrostic love...

There are two ways to play this challenge.  One is to take the letters of our characters' names and assign to each letter a phrase or adjective that describes that person.  For example, for Lee you could start out:  Loyal, Envious...  Or alternatively you could use phrases:  Looks good in suits, Eats too much before Exodus, etc.

The other approach is to take the character's name, or a phrase from the show, and use the letters to tell a short story.  For example:

Leland Joseph Adama:
Lost Everyone.  Lived Another New Day. Journeyed Over Silent Earth.  Promised Her – Awake, Dreaming – Adoring Memories, Always.

Kara Thrace:
Kissed Adamas Repeatedly, Although Trepidaciously. Her Running Afterwards Created Enmity.

Bill Adama:
Busily Ignores Lee. Loves A Dying, Assertive, Mystical Addict.

Laura Roslin:
Launches An Uprising, Requisitioning A Raider, Ordering Starbuck’s Legendary-Icon-Nabbing.

Saul Tigh:
Song Activated Underlying Lost Toaster Identity, Generating Horror.
 
If you need to add little connecting words to make your acrostic story make sense, feel free.  Also, you can pick any phrase you want to turn into a story.  "No takebacks," "beyond insane," "Kara Thrace's special destiny sounds like a bad rock band," etc. 

Enjoy!

Ooh this is fun. And just as insidious I think!

Zak Adama

Zeus and Kara always doted. Apollo mentored, also.


Starbuck and Apollo

So, tormented and restless beyond uttering, carefully Kara angled naked down against poor oblivious Lee's leg.
"OH!"

Your rack or mine?

"Yes! Oh!" utterances rang riotously aloud. Carefully, Kat observed, relatively motionless in nearby entry.

Ha ha!

You and I are such night owls, Tara, I thought if anyone would still be awake for this it would be you :)

Nice job with these. I especially like the "Zak Adama" one, it's sweet and it kind of sums up the essentials for him. Thank you!

Heh. I am a bit of an insomniac. These were a lot of fun! I'll have to think up some more.

Kara and Lee

Kicking ass, returned angel. Another notch: death. Look! Elosha's Earth!

Hee! I really like this one, thank you!

Especially "Look! Elosha's Earth!" So fun :)

Here we go, I've got a couple more:

Kara Thrace:
Killed and rejected all "Two"s. He regularly acted crazy; ergo...

Saul Tigh:
Slurped alcohol unceasingly. Laughed tipsily, in good humour.

And if I were choosing words to describe Lee, I would pick:

Leader, Envious, Eloquent, Adroit, Discerning, Adventurous (sometimes), Madly-in-love, Abandoned.

For Kara Thrace:

Killer-smile, Amorous, Radiant, Antagonistic, Thrill-seeking, Hot-shot, Religious, Abused, Creative, Enigmatic.

Lee Adama

Longing endlessy even after death. A man alone.

Loathing endures, except: a dance. Athletics melts anger.


Kara Thrace

Keeping a reputation alive takes hot reactions and cold emotions.

Kacey affected reluctant acceptance to her resistance against cylon entreaties.

Wow! All four of those are just so completely perfect. I love every one of them. But I think my favorite is the one about Kara's hot reactions and cold emotions. Beautiful!

These are great! I can't think of anything now but I'm enjoying this topic.
