Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

Heh.
Helo loves Athena, and he's a one-toaster man.
I know that there is a large contingent of Helo Haters over at TWoP, but I just want to hug him (and snog his face off, but that's my lust for Tahmoh showing), because he's one of the few remaining principled people in the fleet. He's true to two things: Athena (and by extension Hera) and his duty as an officer. But, he still has a connection to the Cylons that leaks out at inconvenient times (his stopping to stare at the Eights in the hub, his deliberately killing the Cylons before they could spread the virus).

But...but...HELO! He's made entirely of AWESOME!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
It's okay, Jess. They're crazy insane people, but we can take comfort in the fact that they're from an entirely different part of the internets.

Yes, there is a large contingent of people at TWOp who think that Helo is joyless and self-righteous. Because he wants to do the right thing. I mean, shouldn't you think twice (at least) before committing genocide or betrayal?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I am somewhat neutral on Helo, but I had perceived that general consensus across the 'nets is that people love him.
I don't get the love. He seems kind of naive to me. That doesn't sit right with me as a general personality characteristic for individuals who are running across the universe for their lives.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
Aw, I love Helo (and the pretty doesn't hurt either).

I think Helo makes a nice flip side of the coin with Baltar. They're both in love with Cylons, but whereas Helo has been helping her assimilate herself into the human world, Baltar embraces the Cylon philosophy/religion and is trying to make over the fleet into a subset of Cylon thought.
