BSG fic: Grace Notes

Grace Notes

Her files and folders still littered his desk, too much of an effort to focus on after the tears had begun to wrinkle the paper and mix with the ink. She should’ve still been poring over them, should’ve straightened them, should’ve been making plans to find somewhere else to stay. But all she could do was lay there with a cloth

You convey so much in just one scene - wow! I love all the different versions of this scene. They are all so wonderful that I love each one more than the last. I can literally see in my head exactly what you have described in the scene. I also love the idea/image of them sharing Bill's rack!

[alias424]

It's such a great image, isn't it? Until we hear otherwise (and probably even still then) that's definitely how they're sharing the space in his quarters. ;)

[unavitasegreta]

Absolutely. As close as they were that night together on New Caprica, no way do they not enjoy lying in one another's arms. And Bill is too old to sleep on the couch. He would be having back issues all day. I choose to think Laura protested about him on the couch and he protested her sleeping on it, so they happily compromised!

[alias424]

Oh, I couldn't agree more. Both sides win and everybody's happy. Especially us. That scenario is like a fic waiting to happen, by the way---I can see it now: dialogue and everything. You should definitely write it....

Very nice work :)

*waves to another new in the fold*

However, you still need to post it at SI too.

And you know I loved it - my favorite part is still the population countdown because it is just so Laura to have those numbers etched in permanent marker on the whiteboard in her head.

And see? They like it. NOT SCARY AT ALL.

I saw it over at A/R this morning and squeed a little. Heh.

[alias424]

Whoa... there was a beating STICK. Good thing I obeyed.

And also because the population count is what got us both hooked on Battlestar Wiki, lol. Just saying.

That icon is gonna get me every time. Hee.

Oh, this was beautiful. This is exactly the way I want them to make up: without anybody saying 'I'm sorry'.

[alias424]

It seemed to me that's how they'd go about it. That way no one has to admit defeat. Thanks!

I saw your name on the fic post and almost burst from excitement!

This had better be the first of MANY BSG fics from you cos you've to it frakking nailed.

"You could never look weak, Laura.”
Died. So so perfect.

“That’s not my best shot either. Just for the record.”
Feel free to write that best shot attempt. I'm just saying. :D

[alias424]

The conversion to BSG fic HAD to happen eventually. Gidget would've used her magic powers to make it so. :)

Heh. Oh the possibilities....

[babylon_whore]

LOL well I'm ecstatic that it did. With you and Gidget writing this fandom.... HAPPY FRAKKING DAYS!!!
