There's A First Time For Everything (M) Sam/Kara/Laura

Wow, I really like this! It's awesome how these prompts are suggesting all sorts of AU 'verses to people too.

I love the structure of this, and how it allows you to show some surprising observations about their relationship, all the first times are surprising. And it's a great device for telling what is clearly an expansive story about them oh so quickly. And somehow it really gutted me that they had never slept together until Laura was President again. And it seemed fitting that it could not happen until all was right with the world again, in all their eyes - when Laura was in charge again.

And I love how that Laura and Sam comfort each other in their darkest moments. What could have been a cracky idea for a threesome is treated here with such dignity and quietude.

AU is just a great way to go with things. I also have a tendency to tell condensed stories -laugh-

Glad you liked this! It was certainly an interesting experiment.

I think you do Sam really well. The "first time" structure is a nice touch - it really hooked me into the piece and made me curious about where things would go between them. I especially like the way you bookended the first and last sentences with first times.

This is just one of those threesomes you can actually see happen in canon, imo. All that sadness and angst surrounding New Caprica, the shared horrible experiences. And they'd look so pretty together. I liked this!

The writers could have taken it there, right?

And they'd look so pretty together

Ha. They would.

Glad you liked this.

This was wonderful! I love how things build and it feels so inevitable, finally being a way of coping, then healing. So much pain on all their parts...I really like how you ended this on a note of peace.

Their lives get so ridiculous, you kinda just have to stop at one point where things are alright for them before it all gets worse and you have to get back into the angst -laugh-

Thanks.

OH MY BEJESUS THIS IS SO GOOD AND HOT AND PERFECT AND ANGSTY BUT BEAUTIFUL AND SEXY AND SWEET.

Makes me want to write this tripling, or at the very least, read some more of your take on the ship. Ugh, so good. I enjoyed this so very much. It's so tender and heartfelt and packed to the brim with emotion. Great, great work.

Thank you :)

It's a great threesome. There's mainly just porn out there of them, but occasionally you can find other things.

Go for writing it, they need more!
