the most wonderful time of the year

[dianora2]

This week has been dubbed "Lee Week" by dionusia (check out her LJ for some great stuff), and since I like to think that for me, every week is Lee Week, I had to make sure to commemorate this auspicious occasion. I will actually be posting a Lee-centric guest post to btlstr_hiatusca in a few days, but in the meantime, I thought I would put together a picspam celebrating my favorite attribute of Lee Adama's.



That's right:

ARMS.


An icon of this photograph is the reason I started watching Battlestar Galactica. I AM NOT MAKING THAT UP.



Look, promo shot arms! How hilarious is it that they were billing these guys as a triangle?



I have to say that pilot tanks arms are probably my favorite arms. Something about the way they're offset by the different colors of fabric....or maybe it's just the booze.



Extra points for pilot tanks arms in bondage.



What? Don't take those off! You'll completely ruin the effect! Thanks a lot, TIGH.



See, Zarek totally gets it, because when he takes Lee prisoner in "Bastille Day" he makes him take his jacket off before tying him up. Smart man.



Must have sucked to have those arms turned against him later, though.



Pilot tanks boxing arms are also a delightful flavor. This shot gets bonus points for featuring another favorite of mine: VEINS. Guh.



"That's for not letting me have the car when I was 16!"



Pilot tanks closeup!



Pilot tanks arms of sympathetic friendship and pining. Sigh.



Which are not nearly as hot as pilot tanks arms of dirty sexy kissing.



This shot fucking slays me. Look at that bicep. I want to sink my teeth into it. I'm sorry, was that oversharing?



"Let's make a plan! And then have lots of dirty sex."



Sweaty, sweaty arms. Eminently lickable, no?



Sexy even when arguing with really tall guys. This one has some arms of his own.



Awww, pilot tanks arms of male rapprochement!



Flexy arms! I'm going to guess those aren't his shirts. Unless that's the Red Shirt of Unspeakable Hotness peeking out!



I believe the only appropriate response to this picture is: JESUS FUCKING CHRIST.



Let's not forget the single tank look, though. Now with bonus Helo arms!



Um. Yes please.



You only hurt the ones you have banter with pine for have hot dirty adulterous sex with love.



I love this shot like burning.



VEINS.



OK, OK, maybe the arms really are best when accompanied by nothing at all.



I'd like some guns and a sixpack to go, please.



One of the most iconned shots in BSG fandom, and with good reason.



Mmm, very nice. I wonder why he was working out? Did something happen before that to make the working out necessary? If so, I must have blocked it out completely from my memory.



His arms are so impressive that they act as flotation devices.



Ah, shirtless making out. I love that notch on the top of his shoulder. I'd love to... sorry, about to overshare again.



You didn't think I was going to forget about THIS scene, did you? Silly rabbits.



Um. Yeah. YEAH. Fucking perfection. I'll be in my bunk.



Now, this is all not to say that the arms don't also look very nice when covered by a thin layer of material. Exhibit A, ladies and gentlemen. Look at how the fabric gets trapped beneath the muscle... *twitch*



Even hiding out in the ladies room can't diminish the hotness.



Okay, you can't see the arms all that well here, but it's the Red Shirt of Unspeakable Hotness, so who's complaining? Not me, baby!


So there you have it, a Lee Adama arms retrospective. I just have one request, Ron Moore: may we please, please, get to see those arms just one more time before the series is gone forever? Please?

Feel free to share your own favorite arms moments in comments!

Caps from bsg-caps and yours truly.

Amen, my friend. Amen.

I am quite insanely fond of that little ridge thing you can see just above the waistband of his shorts in the working out with Helo picture

Um, yes. Yes. This. Um.

[corellianjedi.livejournal.com]

Holy geeminee christmas. I think this picspam killed me. 0_0

Why oh why did I leave my BSG DVDs at home? *scrolls through again* (Thanks for the bonus Helo arms, too!)

[dianora2.livejournal.com]

You were one of the people I was thinking of when I included the Helo arms, so you're welcome. ;)

[leiascully.livejournal.com]

I can't even explain to you how much I appreciate this post. Hello, bookmarks.

[dionusia.livejournal.com]

You are my hero, and the official winner of Lee Week.

MMMMM.

[dianora2.livejournal.com]

Woo hoo! I am honored and humbled. *g*

[alissabobissa.livejournal.com]

*drools*

Oh lordy. I had to snap out of that arms of hawtness coma I was in. How long was I out? *happy sigh*

Lovely. Just lovely. :)

[airings.livejournal.com]

*faints*

His biceps and deltoids should be an example for every man in this world.

[dianora2.livejournal.com]

Indeed. Indeed.

[k2daisy.livejournal.com]

Best. Gun Show. Ever.

[moyawyvern.livejournal.com]

*drools* I so have to rewatch this show. Thank you very much for getting my day started off so well.

[bookwormsarah.livejournal.com]

Aaaaaarms. Arrrrrmmmmmmmmsssssssssssss...

*ahm*

Look at that bicep. I want to sink my teeth into it. I'm sorry, was that oversharing?
This reminded me so much of when I went to see Donnie Darko at the cinema. I had a longstanding crush on Noah Wyle, there were several shots of the back of his head, and I spent most of the time drooling over the idea of nibbling his neck...

And yes, tanks. Totally with you on the tanks.

[oracne.livejournal.com]

You just made my morning.

*slurp*

[zandras-court.livejournal.com]

::drools:: Guh. I have no words.

[morwen_peredhil]

This is brilliant! Thank you for performing this valuable public service.

[cattm.livejournal.com]

Guh. I never truly appreciated arms before Lee Adama and BSG. Thanks for sharing!

[coffeesuperhero.livejournal.com]

You're my new hero. No, seriously. Mad love.

I have no idea how you put this thing together, because I would have shuffled off to my bunk after the first one. I'm actually surprised I've got enough brain left to leave this comment.

[karinablue-rose.livejournal.com]

Thank you,thank you for the arm porn!

He does look really tastey in the red shirt!

[dramaticgrl.livejournal.com]

Mmm, arms :)

Excellent picspam! :D

[eugis.livejournal.com]

Lee Adama's arms... perfection. My day (night actually :P) just got better ;) Thank you!

I've recently got into BSG and I can't seem to even stop thinking about it for a minute! hehe and I keep finding these amazing posts which help my newest obesession grow more and more every day, so I'm friending you if that's okay with you, I'd love to keep reading and drooling over your picspams :)

[dianora2.livejournal.com]

Glad you enjoyed it!

Of course! Anything to help along a new BSG obsession. I know what that's like. :D

[mzcalypso.livejournal.com]

It's inspiring to see such outstanding support for the Right to Bare Arms!

[nytel.livejournal.com]

Oh man, I had almost forgotten how absolutely frakkin HAWT Lee/Jamie is, but now I will never, ever not remember. *happy sigh*

This was great, and the captions... fantastic. :)

[sarmoti.livejournal.com]

I HEART YOU FOR THIS.

*adds to memories*

I have come to realize that I no longer have icons uploaded of the arms! I think I got addicted to Lee in a suit and somehow lost my way. I shall remedy this during my next icon overhaul.

[arielmoondance.livejournal.com]

Delish! Thanks for sharing.

I would like to mention that the arms also look incredible in the black marine shirt. *thud*

[dianora2.livejournal.com]

Thanks for reading!

Ah, yes! Excellent call.

THIS. LOL. FJDSLK;AFLSKS AND EVERYTHING ELSE ABOUT THIS POST, TOO. LIKE, THE ARMS OR SOMETHING. ILUSM.

Got so excited I can't frakking spell, that's what this post does to me.

[bop-radar.livejournal.com]

since I like to think that for me, every week is Lee Week
That's the way! *chinks glasses*

An icon of this photograph is the reason I started watching Battlestar Galactica. I AM NOT MAKING THAT UP.
Hahaha, ILU.

Look at that bicep. I want to sink my teeth into it. I'm sorry, was that oversharing
I totally want to do so too! *joins*

Um. Yeah. YEAH. Fucking perfection. I'll be in my bunk.
lgjklsdjgkldjsgl;dj ;lgsjl;djsg ; There is no other possible reaction to that shot.

Look at how the fabric gets trapped beneath the muscle...
*makes inchoherent whimpers*

Even hiding out in the ladies room can't diminish the hotness.
HA! I totally forgot that he did that! *hearts*

may we please, please, get to see those arms just one more time before the series is gone forever?
Possibly the most important request for 4.5 yet made! (And that's saying something given my own private list runs to two pages..!)

[margaretmoony.livejournal.com]

Um. ... Yeah. I can only say *squish*.
