WELCOME CES!!!!!!!!
As for those Ark spoilers....
Spoiler:
...I'm actually kind of glad that the writers are bringing back Tomin.
*ducks for cover*
I think it would have been poor writing on their part to just ignore the fate of his character. I mean, we kind of got a hint as to what could have happened to him after "Line in the Sand" but nothing concrete. We also didn't get a proper goodbye. Her leaving Tomin aboard the Ori ship wasn't a final goodbye that ended their relationship....and I think we need that, I think Vala needs that before she can move on (with Daniel) completely.
Say what you will about Vala/Tomin, but her time with him changed her, helped her mature. So as a character, I think he deserves a proper send-off. And Vala deserves to find closure to that relationship. I doubt that since these movies are all we're getting now, they'll drag out this relationship. If we had gotten a season 11, we might have seen Tomin in a few episodes but since we're just getting a movie, I think this is the writers' chance to wrap up the Vala's "other life" storyline (Tomin and Adria).
Besides, from what we've been seeing, and what I'm speculating about for "Unending," TPTB are clearly in our corner. But just as Daniel had to deal with Sha're, we will have to deal with Tomin. In the end, I'm hoping that Daniel will be there for Vala (because I'm predicting that Tomin will die ).
