I'm sorry about not providing a YT link but the audio gets deleted right away when I try to upload the vid to YT

*sniff* I remember I nearly cried the first time I watched this! I definitely had watery eyes anyway I miss Boomer so much and this vid reminds me of how awesome she was, how much crap she went through. How can anyone hate her when they see the struggles she went through?? I also really love the Chief/Boomer stuff in this (I think it was the moment in this vid, when Chief spins Boomer around in his arms with the "when you hold me in your embrace", that made me want to cry - it was just how emotional it fit with the music I guess ). Their romance was so tragic *sniff* I love the whole end sequence. All those quick angsty clips work perfectly with the music!! This breaks my heart but I love it :D

I'm all with you here, Jemma. Boomer's story broke my heart as well. I felt for her even though so many people seemed to hate her. I was so hoping for a happy ending for her and Chief, but it all ended in such a devastating and heartbreaking way

She'll always be one of the most interesting characters of the show though!

Thank you for commenting again. I really appreciate it!

Oh my goodness! I don't even watch BSG and this made me cry! What a completely heart wrenching story! You did an *amazing* job summarizing, it, though. I really loved what you did with the coloring, and it had great beat use and lyric interpretation, too. Well done!

Thank you so much, Julia!

I'm sorry about making you cry!
Boomer's story is totally heart-wrenching though. She has to go through so much bad stuff on the show and it all leads to her turning to the dark side. She's more or less re-united with the man she loves towards the end, but they don't get a happy ending. She betrays him and is killed in the end. It's so sad!

Thank you for your kind words on the vid!

Oh Boomer! This is totally heartbreaking (but in the awesomely good vid way )! You told her tragic story so well. *sniffles*

Wonderful job, I enjoyed it a lot!

[KajaM]

Thank you, Ais!
Yeah, Boomer's story is one of the saddest on BSG (along with Gaeta's and Dee's, imo). I wish she didn't have to die and that there was a happy ending for her & Chief. You can't have it all though, hm?

Anyway, thank you for commenting! It's much appreciated!
