Oh Kara. In the end, she’s just Kara. And she realizes there’s no place she’d rather spend her last few minutes of existence than a grassy field with Lee Adama, safe in the knowledge that the fight is over. She wonders if he’ll ever know how proud she is of him, of them, of the work that they did and the journey they made. All of them, but Lee especially. The words stick in her throat.
This? Wonderful and true and heartbreakingly sad. For both of them. You've cracked open this moment perfectly.
