A Time For Hope
The Sine Qua Non Hangar Deck Scene, Take Two.
Total crack for wisteria_ and daybreak777.
So this is how some people WANTED it to go...
Lee (staring deeply into Kara's eyes): Dad is never coming back, is he.
Kara (eyes welling): No. And no one can talk sense into him but his girlfriend. And she's not here!
Lee: Hold me!
(They kiss. Smolderingly. Passionately. With the fire of a thousand suns.)
Adama (walking up in his XXL flightsuit): Kara, what is going on? ...Why are you giving Lee mouth to mouth resuscitation?
Kara: He, uh...he fainted while upright.
Lee: It happens a lot.
(more kissing)
Reporter Playa Palacios (elbowing photographer): Hey, get a picture of that! (Large flash) Ah...I can see tomorrow's headline now: "NEW PRESIDENT CAUGHT IN FLAGRANTE WITH SUSPECTED CYLON: WILL HIS LOOSE LIPS SINK SHIPS?"
Adama (muttering): In flagrante delicto: that's Latin for "while the crime is blazing." In other words, caught in the act. But whatever does she mean? This is all quite innocent!
Playa: Are you for real?
Adama: She is just showing him a very sisterly affection!
Playa: Tell that to her tongue.
Kara: Hey!
Passing deckhand: AND she's still technically married!
Playa: Oooh, even better. "TORRID AFFAIR MARS JUNIOR'S FIRST DAY IN OFFICE: IS THIS WHAT THEY MEAN BY 'SECURITY DETAIL'?"
Kara (silencing Playa with a swift chop to the neck) How's that for an exclusive?
Lee: Nice one!
Kara: You get the film.
(Lee advances menacingly on the photographer)
Photographer: Freedom of the press!
Lee: Laura taught me I don't have to care about that shit anymore.
(He tackles the photographer and wrenches the camera away; photographer flees)
Lee (calling after him): I'm the president, bitch!
Adama (with dawning awareness): Son! You're breathing again!
Lee: It's a miracle.
Kara: I dunno, he's looking a little faint. A little short of breath. I'd better...
Adama: Quick, his life is at stake.
Lee: Aww, Dad...you really do care! You really, really care!
Adama: Only sometimes, son, only sometimes. And especially right before I'm about to leave. But farewell, kids. I hope you learn the power of love, someday-just like my Laura taught me. (wipes tear)
Lee: Oh Kara, it's too much...now that he's kinda sorta giving me approval, I-I can't bear to lose him.
Kara (eyes wet): I know...!
(They embrace passionately once more)
Adama: I'm still here! (Kara and Lee are still in liplock) Oh...oh well. My Laura's waiting!
(The hatch to the raptor closes.)
Kara: Oh, Lee! Kiss me! Kiss me like there's no tomorrow!
Lee: You make me believe that there is one.
Playa (unconscious): Murblasahh...?
Kara (kicking her in the ribs): Shut up, I need to partake of some more of this besuited hotness. It...it fills me with HOPE! And the WILL TO SOLDIER ON!
Lee: Aww, yeah. Let’s inspire the fleet, Kara!
Kara (yanking off jacket): You could do that better if you were shirtless.
Deck crew: AMEN.
(Raptor takes off as they're still kissing)
(bagpipes warble hope)
**end credits roll**
Fandom: BUT WHY DID THAT ONLY LAST TWO MINUTES?
______
Aw, just can't get enough...
Peace out.
