Second Challenge of every month is a character challenge.
Baltar. Seriously, why isn't there more fic about Baltar. Love him or hate him he's a hell of an interesting character IMHO. Course, that might be because I love him, but at any rate. This week's challenge is simple. Your story has to feature the good Doctor. Could be his point of view, could be he's just an important character that appears. Regardless, your 1000 words can be any tense, any topic, any time period as long as Doctor Gaius Baltar is the primary focus.
Enjoy.
