This is for @burritoagain , whose ask I accidentally deleted while flailing on mobile 😅
Happy new year! Your card is the Queen of Wands.
Wands are the suit of passion and creativity, and the Queen represents the feminine side of those things. She takes the perspective of a mature, wise woman, looking inward at the thoughts and feelings that come with this fiery, spirited energy. This year brings opportunities to deepen your creativity - not in terms of output, but in how you experience the process. Let yourself embody her good-natured, enthusiastic approach to all your endeavors.

I am becoming aware of the effect a lack of trust in the media has had on people, paired with a dearth of research skills.
Have we noticed that the book Sergei is reading while packing up in his office to return to the Soviet Union is Henry Miller's The Tropic of Cancer? A book so sexually explicit that it was actually banned in multiple countries. No wonder he quickly hides it under a pile of documents when Margo steps in to tell him about the O ring issue.

#when bae looks spiffy
I’ll show you mine if you show me yours. You first.
I couldn't get any sleep last night so I watched the elevator scene again (as one does) and I can't find the previous discussion. But Margo definitely takes her shoes off during the pufferfish discussion and puts them back on when the elevator stops on the fifth floor. It's intentional, she sighs and lets her feet rest.
[2x10] Adama and Roslin talk
This conversation follows after they talked in the corridor about admiral Cain not sending supplies to the Fleet, only Galactica, and not answering Roslin’s calls. Adama assured her he’ll mention this to the admiral. After that Roslin took off her glasses, signaling that talk about business is over and they gaze at each other. I included the times when they pause a little to just look lovingly at each other, because it’s so frakkin adorable XD
So after that Roslin inquires about how he’s dealing with the situation. His command was effectively taken away and that’s a hit. Adama’s all smiles and reassurances, but that last look after she turns her back is very telling. He’s only pretending that all is fine. He doesn’t want to worry his bae Roslin without any real reason, but Cain is already raising his suspicions. Out there, in this fleet of survivors of the Cylon attack, military protocol matters less than loyalty that was honestly earned. Cain has his obedience thanks to her rank, but she doesn’t have his trust.
Ok, now let’s go back to appreciating the soft and tender looks :)
Same, fam. Same. 😩
