Jun. 23rd, 2009 03:50 pmSo, I'm rewatching season three of BSG and I get to "A Day in the Life," where there is Papadama/Lauroslin flirting. So I'm squeeing and generally being fangirly, as is my way. So my mother says, totally seriously, "Do they have a real romance, or is it all in your head?" See, what she means is, do I ship them the way I shipped Jack/Nadia, or the like, because I'm a nutball. I told her that no, they really love each other like burning, and she pauses and says, "Is theirs a tragic romance, or do they make the best of a bad situation?" I find my mother delightful.

(Poor Tess. Her powers are well known, but still sad.)

I'm torn in terms of my feelings about this because on one hand, I want it to go on forever, and on the other hand, it's such a pain to live in constant fear of spoilers, because damn it, this show is too twisty and ingenious to get spoiled for on anything, damn it! I just don't know how to feel!!! Besides FILLED WITH LOVE.
Also: hahahaha, your mom is awesome. And clearly well-versed in your complicated shipping history.

(I LOVE SO MUCH THAT YOU HAVE A LAUROSLIN/PAPADAMA ICON. OMG.)
My friend Yubs just told me that they kissed for the first time at the end of 2.12, so I was waiting for it and then it happened and it was so much greater than I ever could've dreamed of and GOD DO I LOVE THEM. SO MUCH.
My mom is relatively awesome.
Get to Season Three already!
