The Sarah Connor Chronicles - 214: The Good Wound

OMFG! WHY IS THIS SHOW SO AWESOME!?


Guys, guys, guys! I have been a Kyle/Sarah shipper since I was 3 or 4, that was 23 odd years ago. My LOVE for them cannot be textually rendered. To have a WHOLE episode of Sarah showing us just how much she LOVES/D Reese makes me want to jump in joy but also makes me want to curl up into a ball and SOB! Oh gods, to have had that kind of love, only to see it burn down in front of your own eyes. Oh, gods.

Yes, Catherine Weaver/T-1000 was all sort of bad ass, the similarities and differences between Sarah and the doctor who saved her life was exquisite, Derek being awesome is just AWESOMEST!CAKES! HOWEVER, ALL I WANT TO FOCUS ON IS SARAH AND KYLE! My little heart BROKE into a million pieces when they kissed under the tree, oh gods, oh gods, just how much TRAGIC do you want? THEY CAN NEVER BE because KYLE REESE died over 20 years ago saving the love of his life and the hope of humanity, and Sarah, gods, poor, courageous Sarah had to carry on the mantle of the soldier, the protector, the goddamn mother of the Saviour of Mankind, and I just WANT TO CRY because they could have BEEN HAPPY!

GUY! JUST OMFG! I JUST CANNOT DEAL!

This may make me a bad fangirl but I'd be FAR more depressed to see TSCC get cancelled than I would if SPN gets canned. OH GODS! IF THIS SHOW GETS CANCELED I SHALL CRY RIVERS OF TEARS!

OH MY EFFING GOD, YES. I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO START CRYING ABOUT THE GREAT KYLE/SARAH LOVE THAT WAS ONE OF THE FACTORS THAT BUILT THE GREATNESS OF THE TERMINATOR SERIES.

AND OHGOD, SARAH, ILU. You and your doomed love for Kyle who died so you can live and to protect your son. Kyle who you borrow strength from everytime you have none left. Oh my god. I don't how is it that TSCC speaks to me more emotionally than Supernatural ever did.

KYLE/SARAH FOREVAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

OMFG! WHEN THE NARRATION STARTED AND I WAS LIKE, OMFG! I -KNOW- THOSE WORDS, I KNOW WHO SAID THEM, OMFG! JUST OMFG! KYLE!!!!! I may have made noises only audible to dogs.

Like, Kyle and Sarah were my first OTPs, before I even knew what an OTP was, before I EVER knew a word of English, and all I had was Chinese dubbed voices in a video parlour during my holiday break. For a period of a week when I was 3 or 4 I went to the video parlour every day to watch the Terminator and the repeat session of it in the afternoon (my uncle worked there). I - I think it was then, looking upon a small colour television, when I first begun to form the concept of what it is to be strong and that love is never withour some form of sacrifice. AND OMFG! REALLY, I NEVER STOOD A CHANCE AT BEING NORMAL. I remember MAKING UP all these STUPIDLY INSANE ways of how Kyle would have survived, and how Sarah and Kyle and their child would be together and happy, and how even then I knew it couldn't happen, but the NEED for it was so very overpowering.

Oh gods, I loved them so much.

I still love 'Supernatural' but 'TSCC' is the superior show, and I LOVE how they don't discount any character, and that the show is about being a human first before their gender, and that makes me happy. I was trying to explain to someone the other day on how I couldn't get into 'BSG' despite its awesome plot, etc., it is because while both TSCC and BSG deals with what it is to being human. TSCC never leave its humanity behind, while BSG makes me despise every single character on the show. Sorry about the side point, but in conclusion; SARAH & KYLE!

Everytime I watch TSCC, I get that emotional orgasm afterwards. I don't know how they manage to do it but I just do. Especially, at 2.12 where, in the end, the girl hovers over Derek and gives him a shot and we realize that she saves him in the future with the same smile and UGH, UGH.

Supernatural just gives me emotional constipation sometimes. TSCC just handles emotions so deftly and expertly. And it's never with big words and rambling speeches and awesome lines. TSCC handles it with actions and by showing. It's just awesome storytelling. UGH.

I think Sarah/Kyle was the original doomed!OTP. I mean, c'mon, I was right there with you with the whole Kyle survives! And Judgment Day will never happen! Sarah and Kyle live happily ever after in a little house with their son, John!

But if that ever happened, she probably would have never grown into her strength. She would have not known how to build bombs and bring down corporations who were unknowingly orchestrating the downfall of mankind. She would have never been the Mother of Destiny. She wouldn't be the Sarah Connor.

Everytime I watch TSCC, I get that emotional orgasm afterwards OMFG! That's EXACTLY how I am after every episode. It just hits me on such a fundamental level that I CANNOT be AWED by its AWESOMENESS and its amazing script and directing. Just such an amazingly envisioned and well written story. And YES! 2.12 was such a fascinating look at Derek and the people he knows, and just the way they choose their shots makes SO HAPPY!

SPN is clunky, always has been and I suspect always will be. The show not tell thing; TSCC is like GOD AT IT, SPN tries but fails, and while it sometime makes mewince they at least try.

DOOMED!OTP! I WAS SO SAD and HORRIBLY SCARRED! I think someone wrote this AWESOME Kyle survives fic that I NEED to dig up straight away and recommend you because I remember it being AWESOME!CAKES! And it was everything I hoped for but better because it MADE ALL REAL and HURTY but still SO GOOD!

She wouldn't be the Sarah Connor. OH GODS! YOU MAKE ME WANT TO TEAR UP! BECAUSE IT IS SO TRUE and I WANT TO CRY! I WANT RAINBOWS and PUPPIES for Sarah but it just WON'T WORK! *CRIES & CLINGS*.

I KNOW I KNOW- Oh my god the show did KYLE JUSTICE and it was lovely and tragic an believable AND OH SHOW!

This may make me a bad fangirl but I'd be FAR more depressed to see TSCC get cancelled than I would if SPN gets canned.
Yes. Um, I'm possibly with you on that.

YES! JUST YES! KYLE! And how he is FOREVER YOUNG in Sarah's memory, and that is so utterly devastating than anything else. It fascinates me to no ends that the ideal/concept of strength in Sarah's mind is bound with Kyle. Kyle Reese who was so young and so damaged when he met Sarah, Kyle who was so brave and so DOOMED!

OH GODS! *CRIES*!

The WHOLE THING WAS MADE OF AMAZING.

the ideal/concept of strength in Sarah's mind is bound with Kyle.
That. Yes.
