#scar is great kara's really just saying words and performing actions

[curioussubjects]

im fine with sam coming back! sam is great, and i thought he and kara had a great thing going that could transition to a fun friendship dynamic (i actually also think lee and sam had a lot of buddy potential too lolsobs -- lee and kara need more friends). but im big ??? on whyyy did sam have to come back Like That, i mean...there was already a hook for his return without the love quadrangle of doom thing. foolishness. i suppose i can make allowances for it as a repeat of the cycle started on the daybreak flashback, but my god.

also lmao im sensing a pattern here because didn't katee also have a hand in leoben coming back for maelstrom? did these writers know of no other way to bring back men? what went on

mess

forgot to let y’all know last night i survived watching scar but only barely. why are pilots the way they are why bensmoking.jpg. very excellent kara episode though i would like to give her a hug and a blanket. highlights are her scenes with helo and the toast scene at the end. my girl!!! cares!!! so much!!! kara is love shaped yall ksdjhfklasd

bit salty about how they decided to go about framing kat and kara’s antagonism, though. kara isn’t tigh. i feel like frustrated concern would be more in line with what kat and kara’s relationship probably is rather than outright hostility. didn’t like that, especially with how if kat is starbuck’s mini-me that mark didnt hit very well at all….meh. 

alsoooo ok ok helo telling kara she’s been ~off since anders and like….WHERE. someone point me to WHERE because i didn’t hallucinate final cut, pegasus, resurrection ship, and flight of the phoenix, did i? like those episodes happened? 

lee & kara: *experience suicidal thoughts/ideation as a result of trauma from being at war for 6 months, scarcity, being refugees, oh and also surviving genocide via nuclear holocaust*

black market & scar: it’s about their love for these randos actually in addition trust me. look at this dee-related drama with this simmering guilt over an ex. no deets though. but it’s bad enough to warrant sublimation via sex worker. these are real people so real naturalism at its finest. remember sam anders? no? well take a gander at this. kara’s been totes suffering. pining away lovesick. it’s not about kara keeping her promise to rescue the resistance, no it’s about her deep love for this man she spent [checks notes] 5 days with. naturalistic sci-fi boys and girls (gn).

also scar: reilly died because he didnt conquer his fear // what about us // there is no us // [press x to doubt] // it’s the alive guys you have a problem with // starbuck didnt die despite not conquering her fear but it’s ok she has a reason to live 

speaking of: more thoughts on the quadrangle of doom under the cut.
