JenP, I did think it was very sweet too. But he's an attractive man, so...
I didn't expect that to happen, but Carter took it so in stride that was totally right for the scene.
She just... she just did the math.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The hotness of the Eugenia kiss, I think, lay in the lack of hesitation. Hmm. I don't know how to explain it.

ita, I agree with you completely. He meant that kiss 100%, and it didn't even process until after the fact that it wasn't exactly what he was supposed to do .
Verra romantic. Yay for love lasting a lifetime !

Exactly. It could have been played for laughs, but wasn't, and I think the sweetness and sincerity of it was hot.

I think that's what gets me about Carter (or, I guess Colin, since it's his work doing it)... he's so sincere. From a meta perspective, he behaves in ways that I wouldn't expect another actor in the same way to behave. It makes him seem more real, I think. Like, for instance, last week's episode, with Henry's loud explosion? I thought the flailing was completely authentic. He makes Carter feel like someone I would really meet, and I really admire that.
Maybe I should x-post this with Boxed Set at some point... having an actor around is strange... good, but strange.

What is even happening?
I haven't watched Eureka. Is it too late to jump into it, now? And I'm not asking because I got fangurl butterflies when I saw that he posted in the spoilers thread. I've been meaning to ask since I was on vacation. But I totally did get fangurl butterflies when I saw that he posted in the spoilers thread.

I can get behing that. It is absolutely my favorite kiss of the show so fire. They'll need to work hard to beat it.

Absolutely, if I'm seventy odd years old and they're in their late 30s.
