JFC.

You know I'll have more to say later, but I want to say now that I am sitting here crying when I'm supposed to be double-checking bags and etc.

Possibly I shouldn't watch the end, huh?

There is nothing about this that is not beautiful. And so perfectly them it's ripping my heart out in the best way ever. Thank you.

p.s.

FFS, I have to stop reading this and crying. OR NOT. Because it is my new favorite thing IN LIFE.

ILU.

p.s. It's totally good crying. Stop saying it shouldn't make me cry. THEY'RE TOGETHER FOREVER. Which is exactly how it happened.

JFCJFCJFCJFCJFC. I actually am going to make a for real comment, I am, but right now I keep reading it. And reading it. And then because I am now home doing useful things like finding this:

Wouldn't let me embed. OMG, I did not know until this moment that I have a Pavlovian response to their music. Now I know.

eta 4563728965473829657389657389.0: It is possible I will just watch this for the rest of my life:

I cannot stand how delightful they are.

WAIT WHAT'S THAT YOU SAY? WHERE ARE ALL THE ROSLIN/ADAMA VIDEOS TO SHAKIRA?

It's possible that an intervention will be required. God, THIS IS SO FUNNY.

Say again? You need some Roslin to Queen to make your girlcrush 543725647389256347926374264389 times worse? LOOK NO FURTHER.

So I have only seen the pilot for BSG; I am more familiar with the canon thanks to some of the kickass writers over at milliways_bar. But my mostly-ignorance is a paltry non-issue, because this:

He’s lost some weight. There’s not much choice in the matter when he insists that every day be spent exerting energy. Energy not spent on finding food, rather on finding her somewhere within this edifice. This dedication.

JFC, A, WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO MY HEART. That is gorgeous; he is building a place of worship, both physical and meta, and I cannot handle how haunting and heart-clenchy this is.

CHRISTMAS FIC IS THE BEST.

Crys, this show, JFC. Something is wrong with my brain that I only love with grand passion couples who break my heart in pieces. But what you said, building a place of worship, just yes. He worships her. And not in some creepy deified way. In a "Your very presence in the world gives my life meaning" kind of way. WAUGH. Exact quote from the show:

I laid out the cabin today. It's gonna have an easterly view. You should see the light that we get here, when the sun comes from behind those mountains. It's almost heavenly. It reminds me of you.

I'm gonna start crying again. I gotta get a grip. I'M AT WORK.

Ahaha, I have such a masochistic love for the doomed 'ships! They are my favorite. (Eric and Tami Taylor are the exception. They are perfect just as they are.)

I started watching BSG in the midst of my Sudafeddy, Mucinex-y haze last month; I got through the pilot, and then decided I should probably save the show for sometime when I wasn't seeing iridescent caterpillars Rockette-ing on the screen. (Then I picked up The Walking Dead, instead, and gave myself zombie fever dreams! I make the best decisions.) The point is, I should pick up BSG again soon! Probably post-The Good Wife and Fringe.

Of course I have a running list. >:DDD

Augh, that direct quote is achy-beautiful.

I have a list of stuff I'm supposed to be watching, too. Alas, my motivation to watch TV is so low lately that I think it might be hanging out with all those sightless sea worm things on the ocean floor. :-/

I can't even decide whether or not to watch the end of BSG, seriously. On the one hand, I have legit missed almost all of the most technically "shippy" parts. On the other hand, I have a history (I should preface this by saying it happens very rarely) of TV reducing me to a state in which I quite literally have to sit in the bathroom and try to breathe. SO. Torn, me!

[cybertoothtiger]

Woah, it's Cabin Week. Do you know how happy that makes me?

Gah. The thought of him building this for her, and, and... *sniffle*

In a way, he’s glad he hadn’t known how things could be, realized that Heaven is defined by the culmination of everything beloved, strung together like pearls in a picture of blissful and complete beauty.

His exact vision of good.

(He’d have let lives go to waste had he known this awaited them. He’d have lost battles. He’d have given up.)

You amaze me.

I can stop anytime. I can stop anytime. I can stop anytime.

Just sent this to my roommate due to her overwhelming love of them. Xo.

[sparkles_mouse]

Look I'm reading!!!!

(Laura, he whispers, every morning.

The wind howls back.) - I love this. It's gorgeous.

He thinks about Earth. How, according to legend, they’d mastered the pattern of rotation, known the truth of the tides and the hemispheres, known when the seasons would start to turn based on a calendar of the moon. - So I've never seen this show and I know nothing about it but I love is. How it's so...normal to us and something we never think about because it's our world but here it's this...mystery and legend. That's incredible.

“Bill,” he hears, uncanny and her - I can hear her :)

Dude. I'm at work, watching Friends and reading this (I work sooooo hard) and I just teared up at the end. You're so good and I love you.
