It's Time for a...

[callmeonetrack.livejournal.com]

It seems like we say this a lot around here: "Poor Kara! She  needs a hug!" So I thought we should have a Hug-a-thon this weeekend!
 
Post pretty pictures of her receiving hugs (or giving them!) Talk about your favorite in-canon Kara hugs or maybe that time when she REALLY should have been hugged but wasn't. Or really should've hugged someone but didn't! Draw a picture of Kara hugs! Write a drabble or fic about hugging! There's all kinds of potential reasoning/kinds of hugs she could be giving or receiving: friendship, gratitude, support, comfort, elation, etc.
 

WON'T YOU GIVE THE GIRL A HUG TODAY? :)

Some of my favorite Kara hugs

These are the obvious ones that come to mind from Act of Contrition and Scar. She needed lots of hugs during those two episodes.

this is a great idea!

to start: my favorite hug is this. because is full of comprehension. it's the end, everything is passed, they fought and they reconciled several times. everything has been said, and now there is only love.

No pretty piccies....

*never posts pics cuz pb doesn't like me*

.... but I think that we needed an entire ep of people reacting to Kara's return. We never saw Helo's switch from ???? to {{{{Kara}}}}. Athena would know she's not a cylon, and probably not one of the FF. She could have nudged Kara.

Of course, the lack of a welcome committee only makes Lee's welcoming embrace stand out that much more. And, in contrast to Sam's "I don't everybody you were too mean to kill" joke line .... if he's so broken up (plus his mind is fried from finding out he's a cylon AND a raider just scanned him in the battle) why's he making cruel jokes. Lee's barely able to talk. Plus I love the sound effect of his boots pounding the deck as he runs HARD to get to Kara.

Lee hugs Kara.
I hug Kara.
{{{Kara}}}

Kara needed hugs so many times in season 4.5. like at the end of "someone to watch over me", when she realized that her father was a vision. I wanted Tigh hugging her damn it, but he was too occupied with FF bullshits.

and I also hated that during the mutiny Lee received like three hugs from his dad and Kara nothing. but it's true that she was all in combat mode at that time... I'm always quite jealous when it comes to Kara.

she also needed a hug in sickbay when she was assisting Sam. and of course before, when she was waiting news about Sam's operation. but again, the FF were to busy with their stupid problems. I really think that Tigh should have hugged her, or at lest put a hand on her shoulder.

You KNOW all my favorites involve Lee hugging Kara, so here they are:

My favorite:







Lee: People have to have this, Kara. Trust. Your word and my word. We don't have this, then we really are no different than the Cylons.

Kara: Thank you.

I love this hug. it's a little moment but it says a lot about Kara and Tigh and how they passed from barely tolerating each other, through respect, and finally friendship.

I love Kara spontaneity and Saul's reaction, he is clearly taken by surprise but his "look at you" is adorable.

I was always quite fond of Kara being hugged.

Aww, I wish I had the pictures on hand, but my favorite Kara hugs are:

Kacey hugs! After NC that was one she really needed. <3

Sam in Rapture for similar reasons.

Laura in Hand of God.

Sam in LYBD because, she was so happy and I like to keep my favorites balanced between joyful and angsty, thanks. ;)

I'm still a little annoyed that they had to go for the lonely, broken shots of Kara, Tigh, and Gaeta during the end of Exodus 2, because if there was ever a time she needed one..... Right after SaGN too when all the likely candidates were *very* distracted and no one was really connecting at all.

( The real question here is why my icon overhaul hasn't included ANY Kara hugs. Must fix.)

talking about Kara/Lee hugs I don't know, I love all of them, it's a really hard choice. but probably I will go for the one at the end of UB, as the most powerful, you know all the blood and the angst and OMG. but then there is the deliciousness of the hug in "home 1"... and the relieve of the hug in "the captain's hand"... and the complete understanding and mutual support of the one in the brig... so I really don't know, I love all of them equally for different reasons... each one of them shows a different aspect of their relationship.
