by my side, you'll never be
by my side, you'll never be

cause i'm fake at the seams, lost in my dreams
and i want you to know that i can't let you go

and you're never coming home again
and you're never coming home again

by my side, you'll never be
by my side, you'll never be

i wanted to tell you i changed
i wanted to tell you that things would be different this time
i see you, you see me differently
i see you, you see me differently

you tell me that you love me but you never wanna see me again (4x)


→ As always, thank you to my lovely beta [info]crickets. And thank you for making me finish this vid :) It was one of those that was sitting there mostly finished and probably would've gotten deleted if you hadn't pushed me to finish it.

→ I feel like I'm doing a lot of Sam-ish stuff lately, but what can I say? He's pretty! I think I've wanted to make a Sam/Kara vid for a while now so this is completely self-indulgent. I think their relationship was probably doomed from the start because, as much as it hurts, I think Kara was telling the truth when she told Sam that she only married him because it was safe and easy. But I think Sam's undying love for Kara is just amazing. Which is the main reason this song caught my attention. Sam is constantly trying to gain Kara's love in return and have what is in his mind a real marraige - but they ultimately just see each other differently. In conclusion, I ♥ them and their angst :)

This is a really beautiful vid, and you've totally captured the push-pull of their relationship.

I'm really glad that the rocky relationship they have showed through :)

I used to be so much better at leaving comments but here goes. This is just beautiful and heartbreaking and I love every single second of it. And beta schmeta, you hardly needed me. Well, maybe to kick your ass into working on it (over and over) but that's about it!

June 18 2008, 17:35:18 UTC 3 years ago

Hahaha naw you still got it :) Thank you VERY much for the beta and the lovely comment.
I appreciate both and ILU!

Ah! You broke my heart, but in a good way :D

I love the flashes and the colors. I especially love the close-up of Kara as the flashes of her life with Anders sort of "flashes" before her eyes too.

So angsty, so good!!

[info]gigglemonster

June 19 2008, 02:10:31 UTC 3 years ago

Thank you!
Yay for good angst ;)
I'm really glad you enjoyed it, thank you for watching

Awesome! I love the part of when Kara is in her viper and thinks of her time with Sam on New Caprica. The colors and feel of this vid are amazing!

[info]gigglemonster

June 19 2008, 02:12:21 UTC 3 years ago

Thank you so much for watching and leaving such wonderful love :)
I'm really glad you enjoyed that part, it took me a while to get it exactly how I wanted it, so thank you again!

i'm a Leoben fan but Oh My Gawd this vid is sooooo beautiful!
it's very touching, especially the cuts you've chosen, where their faces say so much without words. thank you so much for sharing this gem! ♥

[info]snarkyducky

June 19 2008, 02:56:44 UTC 3 years ago

uh, i just realized that saying i'm a Leoben fan might be taken the wrong way, but i didn't sound remotely wanky i hope. i just meant i usually only watch Kara/Leoben vids and didn't pay attention to the other pairings. but i like Sam a lot! he's really good for/to Kara :D *sigh* the current political climate in fandom is such that i must be careful what/how i say stuff ;)

June 19 2008, 04:42:26 UTC 3 years ago

Oh my God, just yes. YES. This is one of my favorite vids that you've ever made. I absolutely love it and the song you used was perfect for them.

I was never a huge fan of the Kara/Sam relationship, but I do like them. (Just not as much as I like others.) Still, this vid really makes me feel for Sam and Kara. Oh, it hurts but in the best way. :)

I downloaded the big, shiny version. Thank you so much for sharing!

Thank you so much!
I really appreciate you taking the time to watch and leave such wonderful feedbacak :)

I've always liked Kara with everyone (Sam, Lee, Leoben) So I have a soft spot for all the boys, but Sammy just...Oh Sam :)

Thanks again!

This is so utterly, heartwrenchingly gorgeous. *sobs quietly* Ok. I'm going to write more Kara/Sam fic now.

Aw well thank you so much! *hands you tissue* ;)
And yay fic!

This is gorgeous. I've never heard that song before either and I love it, it suits them perfectly.

Thank you so much, i'm really glad you enjoyed the vid and song choice :)

Dayln, this is an odd way of contacting you, I know, but I just wanted to make sure you realized you received two BOTB awards at DPTM. One for Killing in the Name Of and one for Scars Of All I'll Ever Know.

[info]gigglemonster

July 9 2008, 01:13:02 UTC 3 years ago

Oh! I did not notice the first one, thank you very much for letting me know! And of course, for the award itself :)

This hurts in such a good way. The coloring/textures aren't just beautiful (though they definitely are that!), but they also make the vid feel so intimate, so focused on just Sam and Kara, so that their emotions are front and center. It's lovely work!

[info]gigglemonster

July 24 2008, 14:53:25 UTC 3 years ago

Oh my gosh, how much do I fail at replying to fb in a timely fashion? Eek, sorry :)

I'm so glad you liked the coloring/textures, I get a lot of mixed feelings on all the effects I use on my vids so I'm flattered to hear that they worked for you :)
Thanks again, SO much

I love how this captures the push-pull of Sam and Kara's relationship. And the footage of Kara in the cockpit from 'Scar' is perfectly used.
