The 5 Things Meme.

You know the drill.

Do me a favor and ask for five things. My fandoms are: Star Wars, Hornblower, RPF for Paul McGann and/or other Hornblower actors, Supernatural, West Wing, Venture Brothers, Boondock Saints and really, anything that you might desire to see done in a halfassed way. If anybody wants it, I'll even write Battlestar Galactica, Nip/Tuck, and Harry Potter.

Be greedy and ask for lots. I'm in a rut these days, and writing these short little things will help me pare down my blather tendencies. :D

1. Living.
2. Dying.
3. Throwing up repeatedly into the toilet in a combination of terror and nausea. It's not much of a dream, admittedly, but having your species almost wiped out will do something to change priorities.
4. It was a dream that got put on hold a good bit earlier, but there was a house in the mountains. Traditional, a little old-fashioned, but on the side of a small town. She had seen it when she was touring the colony on behalf of an educational initiative. It was for sale; she could afford it, and if she retired, she could go there.
5. Being free.

wait, and you didn't see any of season three? notably the episodes where Roslin and Adama talk about building a cottage in the hills on New Caprica, subtext being where they'd shag like teenagers? because, damn, woman.

I do love you for these, btw. all three of them. I love peering into your brain re: these amazing characters. LEE! n'aww. maybe you could get on the writing staff, so there'd be no more late-season-character-assassination-slumps anymore? those are getting old.

now I feel the need to rewatch the first two seasons again. esp the Pegasus arc. bsg!

AHAAHAHAHAHA. OMG. NO. I stopped watching halfway through season two, a little before crazy Admiral, and I saw the first episode of the third season, but that's about all. Clearly, I am in tune with the BSG writers, though with what I've heard about their butchery of Lee and/or Starbuck, I don't know whether that's a good thing to be. XD

And I love Lee with a truly absurd love. Sweet Jesus.

the first 4 eps of season three are more than worth it, as are eps 10-12 of season two. you have a sacred duty to watch them sometime, they are balls-to-the-wall amazing and I think the darkest and best BSG has been.

as for the rest of season three, you just need to watch this speech by Lee in which he criticizes the writers for such a crappy-ass season. it is Lee through and through, all principled and self-hating and noble, will make you fall in love with him all over again, and is the only golden spot in the rest of an unfortunate year. sadly, five minutes does not redeem sixteen episodes...

OMG LEE. LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. MY BOY.

Although I have to admit to be mightily distracted by the awesome of Bamber's cuffs in there.

And yeah. I adore the thread of self-hatred that runs through him. It makes my heart warm for reasons that I can't really understand; I supsect it's why I loved even the infamous hooker episode, and kgjdfhda. Will watch Eps 10-12 on your recommendation. I wasn't overly impressed with the little bits of the third season I saw, but I love dark, bleak BSG more than words can express.
