Congrats! Congrats! On this highest honor. How does it feel to be the new Jate Fan of the Month?
Thank you Lucy! I'm just so happy right now! I'm honored that people voted for me!
1. You know the drill. Tell us a little something about yourself.
I'm Rachel, for those who don't know, I'm 17, from Ireland and I am current obsessed with the colour purple- no joke! Like 80% of my wardrobe is filled with purple clothes! Even jeans!
2. Why did you start watching Lost, and what made you keep watching it?
I started watching it from Season 1- it was advertised so much over here, it was nearly impossible to avoid so I thought I'd watch and see what all the fuss was about! But then I missed Season 2 and then tried to catch up but it was too confusing! Then I heard it was ending and watched the finale and fell in love with it again and went out and bought Seasons 1-5 to watch over the summer!
3. What's your favorite season of Lost? Why?
Probably Season 2, {not just because of Jate's first kiss!} but because we got to learn more about the passengers from the tail section, which was really interesting!
4. What's your favorite season for Jate? Why?
For me, its Season 4. I'm just re-watching it at the minute and it has such good Jate scenes both on and off the island!
5. If Jate didn't exist (heaven forbid!) what Lost couple would be your favorite?
A world without Jate is unthinkable! but my second fave Lost couple is Desmond and Penny- I just love their story!
6. Who do you prefer? Jack, Kate, or Jate?
I'm one of those people who isn't a big fan of certain characters on their own but love them when they are in a couple! So it's Jate for me!
7. Where do they rank on your list of favorite couples?
They are current tied with Brucas and Brennan&Booth at the top of my list but it changes all the time!
8. In your opinion, what makes Jate so jepic?
So many things! But mostly, their story. Its just so perfect- from the first meeting all the way through to the end. And their quotes! And their eyesex! The list goes on!
9. What scene made you a hardcore Jater?
Well when I first watched Season 1, I just loved their little scenes together. I don't think there was one specific scene, I just grew to love them so by the time I watched Season 5, I was completely shipping them!
10. Given the chance, is there anything about Jate's love story that you would change? Why or why not?
I honestly don't think I would change one thing! It was so perfect- although I would get rid of some Skate scenes, not all though 'cause I love Jealous Jack!
11. The most...
Emotional moment: "The End" 'I love you.'’ ‘I love you.' {Emotional but in the best way!}

16. You can "borrow" one scene from each one of the Lost main couples. Which one do you choose?
a) Charlie & Claire: The Peanut Butter scene- it was adorable!
b) Sun & Jin: Their pregnancy!
c) Desmond & Penny: "The Constant" Phone conversation!
d) Sawyer & Juliet: The scene where Sawyer brings Juliet the sunflower in Season 5- super cute!

f) Sawyer & Kate: Their helicopter kiss in Season 4
17. When did you know, with 100% certainty that Jate would, in fact, be fate?
Well I never was 100% sure but I figured they had to be! They just had some quality that screamed "Endgame" to me in Season 4 though!
18. If by some off chance, the creators lost their minds and decided to make Skate endgame, what would be your reaction?
I don't think words could describe it! It would just be too much to bear for me-but I would never ever jump ship from Jate to Skate just because they were endgame! One of my friends shipped Skate for endgame{I know, why was I friends with her?!}and then when she found out they weren't, she began shipping Suliet!
19. The most ludicrous thing a Skater said after the finale?
I read this on the TV Couples Spot:"Jate are fake" Like seriously, first off,it doesn't rhyme and of course its fake!They are FICTIONAL TV characters after all!{But I still love them!}
20. Skaters love to chant these things, what is your retort to each?
-It's about the journey not the destination: Their journey was amazing right from the first moment they met until the end with some amazing quotes and and eye-sex in the middle!They had the perfect ending to the perfect story.
-Jack treated Kate badly: And Sawyer did?!Jack looked after Kate- He fixed her!
-Sawyer and Kate are criminals and therefore understand each other where Kate and Jack do not: The way I see it is, that Jate are so in love, they connect on a whole other level that Skate ever did!
21. Skaters are out for blood and they've found a way to steal a Jate scene.Which one do you protect with your life?!
LOL I love your questions Lucy!It's got to be the Epic mutual "I love you" scene! I'm not giving that up for anything!
22. What do you like most about both of their characters individually?
I love how Jack is always the leader in every situation! I think that is so sexy in a man!I like how Kate, despite her past, always seemed to get along with almost everyone on the island.
23. You are granted the priceless opportunity of filming a Jate scene with Foxy. Which one do you choose?
Is the Ass Grab too much to ask for?!I'd probably choose The Moth Hug.
24. Let's say you were on the island with the losties. Do you become closer friends with Kate or Jack?
Most likely Jack. I prefer to hang out with guys as they are more easy going than girls!
25. You are still on the island. You either have to get your appendix taken out, or take a bullet to the shoulder. Which one would you rather suffer?
It's not much of a choice!I'll have to go for the bullet in the shoulder.The appendix thing would be too gross!
26. Jack and Booth (from Bones of course) have both been buried alive by the Gravedigger. They are in separate places and you only have time to save one. Who do you rescue? Take into account all of us Jisters will be looking at you with puppy dog eyes.
OMG How did you know I love Booth?! I am hopeless at making decisions but I would most likely choose Jack {Not just because of the Jisters or the fact that you would probably never speak to me again if I didn't choose him!} but because Booth has already been kidnapped by the Gravedigger and escaped so he'd know what to do!
27. In your opinion, what's the most underrated Jate thing?
The Hallway scene in "Left Behind"!We get to see Kate helping Jack for a change!
28. What's your favorite 'because' off of the 'Reasons we will always be Jaters'list?
I had no idea that was on the spot until now! Its great! Mine would have to be "No.85.Because they don't have to say a word to speak volumes" EYESEX FTW!
29. Your favorite Jate related quote EVER. It can be one they said themselves, a cast member, creator, Jister.... anyone.
I love "Jack is the guy she should be with. She genuinely loves him." said by Damon Lindelof.Amazing!
30. And finally. Why are Jack and Kate so perfect for each other?
They just fit together so perfectly and accept each other for who they are!
Congratulations again on your win, you deserve it. Any last words?
Thank you so much for doing this interview with me Lucy! Your questions were amazing!Thanks to everyone who voted for me! It means so much!
And with that, I begrudgingly hand you the title of Jate Fan of the Month. Nah, just kidding, I hand you the title happily, for you deserve it! You had some great answers. Congrats!
