Is there a name for this?
I keep wanting to plant growing things. My garden is full of woodchips (converted from student-garden-wilderness a few years ago), and it looks very sensible but not very much like a garden. My lease says I can't mess with it. This doesn't stop me wanting to get plants from somewhere - campus, other people's gardens, the houseplants on the kitchen windowsill - and fill every square inch of boring woodchip with things that grow.
I'm really not the gardening type. Um. I'll blame it on spring, and just hope the compulsion dies down before I start coming home with armfuls of perennial.
Anyway. I finally , in which I was guessing that at least one of the Boomers would die and that Something Big would happen with Adama and Apollo. Apparently not... It makes sense that Galactica!Boomer wouldn't be able to kill herself, but I think it's incredibly unlikely she'll survive until the end of the series now. She's my favourite character by far, and I'll be sorry to see her go.
From what I've seen of the wider fandom (I daren't read too much in case I get spoilered for the next episode), people are really interested in Starbuck/Apollo and mostly found the Helo-on-Caprica interludes annoying. I don't actively dislike the Starbuck/Apollo stuff - I do find it a bit irritating when it's obvious what ships I'm supposed to be interested in, but that happens with everything, and they're at least interesting people - but it doesn't make me desperately want to know what happens next, or to go out and read/write fic about them. (Mostly it just makes me vaguely nostalgic for Space: Above and Beyond - I think it's the pilot stuff.) Helo's plot on Caprica fascinated me, though, and now he knows what Boomer is I'm a lot more interested in their relationship.
