Daily Pilots Post

So, I was sitting here, working on a project for tomorrow's DPP, occasionally refreshing my flist, and I started thinking "That's weird, the DPP is usually up by now, I wonder why it hasn't been posted yet." And it actually took me a little while to figure out that this DPP won't go up until *duh* I post it. It's been that kind of day.

SO! For today's DPP, discuss:

Angst vs. Fluff! (I picture here a cage match between Lee, fully emo'd out, and a small white kitten. Right now, the kitten is the odds-on favourite. ;) )

Which do you prefer to read? Which do you write? (I prefer fluffier, but tend to write angstier XD) Which do you associate more with the fandom?

P.S. I direct you to yesterday's post and rachelindeed's summary of the biggest difference between fanon and canon:

In conclusion, have you noticed that Kara and Lee get it on constantly in fanon whereas they almost never do in canon? I know it's a subtle thing, but I have picked up on that divergent trend in fanfiction :)

Made my day.

Can I shamelessly squee with you guys over something that is only vaguely on topic? Yesterday I found a great picture of Kara and Lee that I had never seen before, and as I think about it, it seems like an image that represents the exact midpoint between angst and fluff. It looks like it's a photo either of a rehearsal or of an alternate take of the angst-o-rama "under the wing" scene in Maelstrom, and in this version Lee has wrapped his arm around Kara. See?:



I kind of melt about this, I have to admit. It's like the scene is beginning to take a different turn than the one it took in canon. If I were an icon maker, I would totally do something like "Angst or Fluff? Tonight the Viewers Decide." :)

Oooh, I like this photo. I like it a lot.

Love the way she's looking at him.

I've been looking for this pic, Rachel. Thank you so much for posting it.

This is exactly why I love L/K. There's an effortless intimacy that is so haunting that I almost feel bad looking at the picture for too long.
