Oh, yes -- I think the moment that is so key is when Kacey reaches out to grab Kara's hand as she rises to leave. THAT'S what truly gets to her, IMO. The child's gesture was just so open and artless, it just said "please love me."
Yes, well for three brief paras, she was MINE to do with as I wished. ;-) (Though I actually do think there's a strong reading for that on the show--at least as strong as other theories on Kara's romantic life. *g*)
Oh, yes, I agree that the show actually backs you up on that one! I just love how it fits in nicely with our own shippy desires. We might be mad for L/K, but that doesn't mean we're wrong. ;)
Good gracious, I keep reading all sorts of stimulating K/Lish things and I want to shove more things into my Essay of Dooooom and read everyone's old meta on almost every episode and I can't keep doing that. Heh. Silly me. Tomorrow I'll just crank out a version and send it to you, come hell or high water.
