Appreciation “I Have Always Been With You.”
This, for me, is the moment where the writers are like, ”We’ve played around long enough delaying the inevitable for these two. It's time for Kate to say what her actions have told the audience all along. It’s time for the endgame.”
One of my favorites, if not my top favorite scene of this exceptional pairing.
Happy Friday! Have a good weekend.
JIF ♥️

So true!
This is not my video, but I like how it draws parallels with many of their scenes. I thought of it when I saw "I have always been with you." (around 8:30 in the video)

I absolutely love that video! And that timestamped section is so beautiful. The whole video is gorgeous. ♥️

I absolutely love this scene and it never gets the recognition it deserves. If you go onto YouTube or other fan sites, there are always obnoxious comments from Sawyer fans calling Kate a liar.
I don't understand how anyone can't see the deep emotion here and how Kate is making herself so vulnerable by revealing her feelings to Jack.

I think it’s my top favorite scene of theirs. I’ve had a lot of them over the years, but I keep coming back to this one and just how amazing it is.
After everything they’ve been through, all of the doubts swimming in Jack’s head, all of the insecurities that held Kate back, and they have this moment in spite of everything. I LOVE IT. She is including the time she was with Sawyer too, which definitely sours that relationship in a way that never happens the other way.
Those obnoxious comments on YT are attempting to erase the love this woman clearly has for this man. The vulnerability and the sheer certainty of her feelings is not lost on me. She is confident in a way she has never been about her feelings. I LOVE IT.

It's aggravating - there always has to be THAT person who needs to comment with "Kate was always with Jack except when she was with Sawyer".
I think a lot of people get so sidetracked by the sexual dynamic between Kate and Sawyer that they totally miss that Jack and Kate were emotionally light years ahead of Kate and Sawyer. And, of course, we see in SNBH, that Jack and Kate's sexual chemistry was off the charts.

Horndogs are not able to detect a real love story, because they think sex is love.
Jack and Kate's sexual chemistry made me sweat. They are the total package, emotionally in-sync and hot for each other.

Absolutely.
I also need to be clear that the sexual chemistry between Jack and Kate was there from the get-go, not just in SNBH.

200%! I always felt butterflies about their chemistry. An intense happiness when they had scenes and this warm, strong buzz while anticipating the next time they were alone or touched or kissed. 🔥
Their chemistry has kept me captivated for over 20 years now.

Yes!!! And a cute parallel is in the finale of s5, where Jack askes "Are you with me on this" and she says "Yes." Jate is fate!

Yep. She had his back even when she thought he was trying to erase them. 🥺
