minxyIn which my love for Aeryn, John, D'Argo, Pilot, the Cute guy and Chiana only grows.
The Way We Weren’t 2.05
Hook: Ooooh, bad guys. Or rather, one Peacekeeper bad guy flanked by about 6 Kull Warriors from Stargate. Cool. Looks like they’re aboard Moya. Except the Pilot is clearly a girl Pilot, so they maybe are reusing sets.
I love it when they talk Peacekeepery. All the clicks and stuff. Coolest made up language evah.
And the Peacekeeper bad guy is a cutie. I love dark eyes. And mah man Crace seems to be in the full-fledged crazy mode. Wasn’t he… somewhere else? Like on Talyn perhaps? Maybe this is a flashback? Except I thought the death of his brother followed by the Aurora chair made him crazy. Huh. Maybe it's different flavors of crazy.
The headset things are cool, are they on the PK guys or the DRDs? Do they just record everything?
Wow. They killed the Pilot. And the cutie is perhaps not such a bad guy after all. They are really selling the horror of killing the Pilot, those two. (Acting! Brilliant! Thank you!) Wonder if there’s a reason Cutie is so sympathetic to the pilot…
Lkupoiugyskhukei(*&^&*(097866wtfAERYN?!?!? Aeryn killed Moya’s Pilot? Tha…. Whoa. Really? Kick ass. Because the blending with sharing DNA thing… and then the thing with Talyn…
I love this episode. Aeryn was a kull warrior and killed someone Moya loved a lot and they’re both carrying that around in their broken little psyches. There are no words for how much I want to see Claudia Black play this out.
Act I: Because already John and Chiana’s reactions are marvelous and different and complex. And D’Argo and Rygel and Zhaan! I totally forgot that they would have been onboard then too! Nice.
HA. See? She remembered the cutting off Pilot’s arm thing. Continuity is good for you.
God. Look at her shake.
And lash out. That’s totally Aeryn. Doesn’t want to talk and wow, Chiana’s reaction is cool. I guess she covers everything with ‘oh that hurt? Neat!’ and the more peppy she is the more she’s covering? Wow.
Looks like the Cutie guy is really sweet with Pilot until Crace shows up, then he get really really mean. Stupid Peacekeepers. I don’t love them.
How much do I love that Aeryn is strong and physical? I love it a lot.
Creepy entrails covered kull warriors bullied her and wiped entrails from the dead Pilot on her face. Wow, her expression is something else.
She just made me cry almost. But at the same time, I’m thinking that John is a little masochistic to keep being soft with her; if she sees softness she thinks weakness and she’ll aim for it, but it would appear that she’s so wrecked right now she can’t see straight. Girl is ripping me up.
Act II.
*ahem* Having seen far too many relationship ‘talks’ fall so flat they almost went one dimensional, can I just say that Ben Browder has just reacted in the sweetest, most baffled way ever to Aeryn’s use of the word ‘lover’? And every note he hit was perfect, the ‘you’re kidding’ shock to blustering to sincere… Ben is working this scene and he’s just laid it all out there, man. That could have been so painful. I often look away from the screen when these scenes come on because they hurts us, precious, but this time, I watched because every time it got too awkward the tone of Ben’s voice changed just in time to save me.
I think I love that man.
Eep. Pilot. With his guts getting yanked out by the Cutie guy and about to be rejected by Moya in her grief and too confused to speak in simple sentences. I wonder how he’ll feel when they he realizes that the Cutie was messing with Aeryn’s heart and internal organs too.
Freethinking Cutie. Who’s going to get himself in trouble. And Aeryn is not going to quite be there yet. He’ll make a leap, love in a grander way than she’s used to, but she won’t be able to name it yet, won’t be able to risk it to go with him. But then later she’ll meet a stupid human and risk speaking up for him, right? Also, is this abomination of a project Talyn? Or something else?
Aw. Permanent chronic pain as a side effect of the forced grafting to Moya. *sympathy kinks*
*blink*
*blink blink*
Not crying. *sniff*
I need a hug.
‘Kay. Am better. And am now loving Cutie ‘cause I think he’s given Moya some birth control pills so she doesn’t have to have Talyn, right? Cutie. I wouldn’t mind if he hugged me. I like brown eyes.
Actually, I want John or D’Argo to hug me. ‘Cause they just played Rock, Paper, Scissors to see who was going to get to go be the voice of reason in an emotional situation. And they’re awesome. I want a tentacle hug.
Oh holy soap on a stick. She turned on the Cutie boy. I was all, omg she’s going with him? Go Aeryn! And then Claudia’s voice started shaking and she put her hands on his face, every finger just barely touching and she almost whispered ‘change your mind’ (which, holy crap I said that once and wow, it resonates) and just as I was thinking oh no, oh no Aeryn you didn’t… whammo. She turned on the Cutie. Not the same person back then, was she? Not ready to defy orders, do something on her own, trust her own instincts…
Not only did they just boggle my mind for at least the 5th time this episode, but they just made me hurt for Aeryn almost more than when she bloodied her hands and screamed into John’s arms. I love that woman, but she is messed up. Cutie gave a marvelous goodbye, though I feel like his character arc was a bait and switch that was revealed very early on. I guess we just found out how very emotionally intelligent and forgiving he was, which is poignant in contrast to how far Aeryn has to go. And really, she hasn't come terribly far yet. Lots of territory for her.
Act III changeover somewhere in here:
Saw the foiling of Crace’s plan coming, though. Prolly figured it out about the same time Aeryn did. Do like how they’re all playing these roles in the shared history, with D’Argo shattering the shield, but I thought I remembered that Chiana was the one who deliberately disengaged some shield of some kind… oh wait, that was when the baby was being born.
Stoopid Pilot, getting all the poor DRDs phasered. Just ‘cause he’s suicidal. *sniff*
Yes, yes, he’s suicidal. Made a choice, is a rebel. Oh. And Aeryn reached him. Very nice. Though I realize they’re playing on the ‘totally not trying to kill her this time’ mimic, it does make Pilot’s hand look like a giant lobster claw just like that.
And I guess the catharsis (and an interesting ‘I won’t have as much control’ step backwards for Pilot) doesn’t extend all the way for Aeryn, does it. Still isn’t really into the whole emotional intelligence thing. John’s tiptoeing closer to figure out how she feels and she doesn’t know and that’s why he’s going to back off for a while now, right? Stoopid human. They could use some sexual healing. Bah. No one ever listens to me.
*sniff* They totally jerked me around this episode. Man, that was a good ride. I love this show. Really dug Chiana and D’Argo in this one too, they each had some stand up and take notice moments.
*sniff* Wish I could have a hug. Maybe raqs will hug me tomorrow if I’m good. *sniff*
