Leaders In Love (Bill Adama/Laura Roslin) #4: The Power Couple
Welcome to the 4th William 'Bill' Adama ♥ Laura Roslin Appreciation Thread Banner made by -Andie- The Couple
made by Brilliant Disguise
made by chasin_the_wind Adama: You would rather that we run? Roslin: Yes! Absolutely! That is the only sane thing to do here - exactly that, run. We leave this solar system and never look back. Adama: You can run if you'd like. This ship will stand and it will fight. Roslin: I'm going to be straight with you here. The human race is about to be wiped out. We have fifty thousand people left and that's it. Now, if we are even going to survive as a species, then we need to get the hell out of here and we need to start having babies! Miniseries, Part 2 Adama: Please excuse me for keeping you waiting. I was called in the engine room, it'll just take a moment. Roslin: It's all right. Some time I'd like to borrow a book or two. I only brought one with me on the flight to Galactica. Adama: What book? Roslin: "A Murder on Picon." I have a weakness for mysteries. Adama: Ever read "Dark Day"? Roslin: Edward Prima. I am embarrassed to say it's one of those classics I've never gotten around to reading. Adama: I think you'll enjoy it. (hands it to her) Roslin: Thank you. It may be a while before I get this back to you. Adama: It's a gift. Never lend books. Roslin: Well, then, thank you for the gift. (She smiles. He leaves) Water S1 E2 Adama: Madame President, good evening. Roslin: I thought you hated these things. Adama: It's colonial day, where else would I be? I'm a patriot. Roslin: You really are, aren't you? Adama: Doctor ... interesting choice. Roslin: I figured, the devil you know. Adama: Politics. As exciting as war, definitely as dangerous. Roslin: Though in war, you only get killed once. In politics, it can happen over and over. Adama: You're still standing. Roslin: So are you. Adama: And I can dance! (the two start dancing together) Colonial Day S1 E11 Commander William Adama: (after being reunited on kobol, the President and the Commander sit down by a campfire to talk) You interferred with a military mission and you broke your word to me. President Laura Roslin: It's the secound part that really bothers you isn't it? Commander William Adama: Laura I forgive you. President Laura Roslin: Thank you Bill... I didn't ask for your forgiveness. Commander William Adama: Well... you have it anyway. Commander William Adama: I didn't come here for this. I didn't come here to nim gaze or to catolouge our mistakes. We made a decision to leave the colonies after the attack. We made the decision. It was the right one then and it's the right one now. Because every moment of every day since then is a gift. President Laura Roslin: From the gods... Commander William Adama: No, from you. Home Part 2 S2 E7 Commander Adama: What can I get you? President Roslin: A new body. Perhaps, one of those young Cylon models from the Resurrection Ship. Commander Adama: I can't see you as a blonde. President Roslin: You'd be surprised. (Laughs) Resurrection Ship Part 1 S2 E11 Commander William Adama: How are you feeling? President Laura Roslin: I could sleep for about a year, but... but you, however, do not have that luxury, because you have a new job. Billy. Billy Keikeya: Took a little while to find that jeweler. (hands a jewellry box to Roslin) President Laura Roslin: Thank you. [pause] President Laura Roslin: Rumor has it that I know very little about military protocol, but I do believe... that... someone who commands more than one ship is called an Admiral. (hands the jewellry box to Adama, who opens it) President Laura Roslin: Congratulations, Admiral Adama. Commander William Adama: Thank you, Madam President. Thank you Billy. I, umm, never gave up hope, I just... stopped trying to get these a long time ago. President Laura Roslin: Just goes to show you, Bill. Never give up hope. Commander William Adama: Same goes for you, Laura. (Bill Kisses Laura) Resurrection Ship Part 2 S2 E12 (Roslin explaining to Admiral Adama why his floor is covered with torn-up pieces of paper) Roslin: Oh. Sorry about the mess, it's, um, a bit of a ritual. Superstition, really. I used to do this before testifying at committee meetings, this is what I'd do. I'd take a, I'd memorize a talking point, then tear up the card (throws the pieces into the air) and let the pieces fall as they may. It helps. Adama: Yeah, my father used to break pencils before he went into court, then borrow one from the clerk. Break preconceptions, work with what you have. Roslin: You know, I like that. Let me see, I like it. (takes one of Adama's pencils, breaks it) Ooh. That's good. Adama: Feel better? Roslin: Yeah. But what happens if the moderator doesn't have a pencil? Adama: Then you're pretty screwed. (Roslin stares at him for a second, then starts giggling uncontrollably) Lay Down Your Burdens S2 E19 Roslin: I’d like to propose this. You seem hell-bent on paying some kind of penance for whatever it is you think you’ve done. So instead of resigning, why don’t you get up and walk out of here, meet me on the port hangar deck tomorrow evening for this ceremony, and let me pin a frakking medal to your chest? Adama: I can’t. Roslin: It’s not for you. It’s for them. Stand up there, acknowledge your fleet, and give them what they need. A hero. That’ll be your penance, even if it kills you. Hero S3 E8 Roslin: Didn't expect to find you playing in the sand. Adama: It's not sand. It's alluvial deposits. This used to be the river mouth. Roslin: And you just had to take off your shoes and play in the alluvial deposits. How romantic. Adama: That's a nice color on you. Roslin: Thank you. Adama: It's good to see you, Laura. Roslin, patting his shoulder: You too, Bill. Unfinished Business S3 E9 (Galactica: Ringside) Roslin: There you are. Adama: Hey. How are you? Roslin: My father was an avid fight fan. I adored my father, so I love a good fight. [Dualla works on Lee while Starbuck wraps her hands.] I heard about your so-called dance. Accidentally, I might add. Adama: Don't take it personal. This is sort of a private tradition. Roslin: Tradition? Adama: There's a lot of frustration aboard warships. Arguments become grudges, then end up being feuds. This allows them to let off some steam out in the open so everybody can participate. Rank doesn't matter. As long as you throw your tags in the box, everyone's fair game. (The current match ends.) Tigh: Next up is Hotdog! Hotdog, get your butt up here and pick a partner. Roslin: Did you throw your tags in there? Adama, laughing: No. No. I wish. All the frustrations that I have... Unfinished Business S3 E9 (New Caprica: Near the dancefloor.) Gaeta: we'll have the infrastructure to deal with any unforeseen -- excuse me for just one moment. The finance minister just came by, and I should really… Adama: go ahead. (Gaeta runs off; Adama and Roslin chuckle.) Roslin: Oh, my Gods. I didn't think he'd ever leave. Adama, pulling out their joint: He's a good kid. Roslin: Hmm. Indeed. Adama: You say this stuff grows around here? Roslin: Mm-hmm. In the mountains north of here there's this little stream that comes down into this lake the water is so clear it's like looking through glass. I'm thinking of building a cabin. Adama, finishing the joint: That's good. Roslin: Mmm, it is good. Unfinished Business S3 E9 (Galactica: The Match.) (Roslin stares, and flashes to herself and Adama snuggling behind the dancefloor on New Caprica.) Roslin: Is this really it, Bill? Is this how we're gonna spend all the rest of our days? Hmm? Roslin: Maybe we should just enjoy this. Adama: I am. Roslin: No, no, I mean enjoy being here on this planet as long as it lasts. I mean, maybe the Cylons come back, maybe they don't, but for now, right now... We've got a break. Adama: I've got people that want to get off the ship, move down here. Roslin: Can't say as I blame them. I mean, what are you gonna do? Unfinished Business S3 E9 Roslin: Admiral. Adama: Madame President. Roslin: How are you? Adama: Very good. Roslin: I'm sorry, I'm sure this all could have been done over the wireless, but very frankly, I was going a little stir-crazy o�*n Colonial o�*ne, and had to get out. Adama: Deep space pilots call it OBE. Roslin: What's OBE? Adama: Overcome By Events. (Roslin laughs) Roslin: Well, you may not feel that way after you finish this. Tory actually drew up an agenda. Adama: Baltar again. Hmm. Can't we just give him back to the Cylons? Roslin: Oh, you know how much I love that idea. Unfortunately, given what little I was able to glean from the Caprica Six, I don't think the Cylons would take him back. So we're stuck. Adama: Fine. Then try the son of a bitch and be done with it. Roslin: We have give him a trial, but under what law? Caprican? Picon? Tauron? Do we give him a jury trial, do we set up a tribunal? We don't even have anything closely resembling a comprehensive law library, and this Fleet is not exact brimming with legal talent. Adama: You bring lawyers into this, they're gonna drag you around for months. Roslin: Wasn't your father an attorney, on Caprica? Adama: Yes. And I told you that I didn't get along with him very well. Roslin: Oh, right. Okay, I need to set up an organizing committee, though frankly, trying to get a room full of legal scholars to stay o�*n task is like herding cats. And so I need to set up a chairman of this committee, somebody who can make a hard decision and who won't get seduced and bogged down by all the legalese. Adama: Do you have a candidate? Roslin: As a matter fact I do. I was thinking Lee... Like grandfather, like grandson, perhaps. What do you think? Adama: I'm not gonna say he's incapable of handling it, but he's never shown any type of interest in law. Roslin: I know, but here's the thing. We need the lawyers to parse the law, but we really need people who actually know the difference between right and wrong. That's Lee. Adama: I'll talk to him. Roslin: Good. Admiral, I was wondering if you'd mind if I stayed on your ship for the rest of the day. Adama: Please. By all means. Roslin: This is very difficult for me to say, but I'm going to go to the gym. Adama: Prepare yourself. on its best day it smells like the inside of a shoe. (Roslin laughs) A Day In The Life S3 E15 Roslin: I'm glad you stopped by. I have something for you. This was given to me by one of the colonists down on New Caprica. And I forgot about it, but Tory found it in a pile old clothes. Adama: Blood Runs At Midnight Roslin: Don't let the title fool you. It's a pretty good mystery. I think you'll like it. And it's not a loan, it's a gift. Adama: You ever think about the times much on New Caprica? Roslin: I try to think about the good times, yes I do. Adama: One particular stands out in my mind. You were wearing your really bright red dress. Said you wanted to build a cabin. Roslin: It was Baltar's Groundbreaking ceremony. I got a little silly that night. Adama: You ever wonder what would've happened if the Cylons hadn't have come back? Roslin: I think given Baltar and the terrain we couldn't have made a go of it. What about you? Do you think you would have stayed on Galactica? Or do you think you would have settled? Adama: It's pretty hypothetical, isn't it? Roslin: It is. Until it isn't. (Laughing.) Did I just say that? Adama: It's worth it just seeing you laugh like that. We've been at war so long sometimes we forget what we' fighting for. Raise our kids in peace, enjoy one another's company. Live life as people again. Roslin: Like that night on New Caprica, that's really what we are talking about here now, isn't it? Adama: That, and... Other times... Roslin: So if the Cylons hadn't come back? Adama: But they did. We have certain responsibilities. Roslin: Yes, we do, sir. And uh, I will be back in a few days, and if you'd like, we can... talk more about that night. (About to leave, she turns back.) Roslin: Bill? The answer's yes. I absolutely would've built the cabin. A Day In The Life S3 E15 Adama: You got off lucky. A dozen injuries, no fatalities. Roslin: Thank you. You should've seen Tory's shoulder, I had to help Cottle put it back in alignment. Ugh. You know I am so busy, I hardly ever make it down to this end of the ship. And now I'm gonna be living here for God knows how long, until they repair the bulkheads. Adama: Well, if the quarters become cramped, you're always welcome in one of my beds. ...In a manner of speaking. Roslin: (laughing) Do you have any better idea of what happened to your Raptor? Adama: We're still investigating the situation, but it seems that the tylium was seriously contaminated with impurities. Most likely, it's a problem with the refining process. Roslin: The hell's goin' on there? That refinery used to be the most reliable ship in the Fleet. Now every day, I start with a stack of messages from the chief -- what is his name? Adama: Xeno Fenner. Roslin: Fenner. Complaining about living conditions, and deliveries, and, uh, spare parts ... and compensation, if you can believe that. We're on the run for our lives, and the guy wants to talk about overtime bonuses. Adama: Well, we've been more than patient with Fenner and his production problems. Two weeks of sitting here waiting for him to get his act together... I don't know about you, but I'm ready to get back on the road to finding Earth. Roslin: Is that a hint of hope I hear? Has the skeptic suddenly decided that we're on the road to Earth after all? Adama: Have I ever doubted it? Dirty Hands S3 E16 Adama: (shaves, cutting himself as the lights flicker) Frak me. Adama: (answers the phone)] Yes. Roslin: (on the phone) Yell at me. I don't want to get out of bed. Adama: Well, you called the wrong number. I was just thinking about going back to bed. Roslin: You feeling okay? Adama: Says the cancer patient. Yeah, I'm fine. I just cut myself. How are you doing? Roslin: I don't want to face them. I don't want to face any of them. I just want to stay in bed all day and sleep. Adama: I think I stopped the bleeding... If you still need to be yelled at, I think I can give you some volume. Roslin: Okay. All right, give it your best shot. Adama: Get out of that bed! Roslin: That's not your best shot. Adama: Get your fat, lazy ass out of that rack, Roslin! Roslin: (laughs) Yes, sir. Okay, sir. Anything you say, sir. Thank you. Adama: Don't let 'em see you sweat, Laura.

I'll try to make some Bill & Laura icons and maybe they can be added to the OP
BTW, I remember the kiss now. Back then I thought it was a lame kiss. That is probably why I didn't remember I look at it differently now. It was a very sweet suggestion __________________

Aww how could you think the kiss was lame It was so perfect and beautiful. I loved how EJO did the kiss himself and it wasn't scripted

Maybe you can send it to me?
I love stories like that. Actors making a decision about a scene like that. Especially if it is a kiss __________________
