This is lovely! Your Lee are Kara are brilliant. I've sort of fallen out of love with BSG fandom recently, but this brought it all back. Roll on next week!

Thanks so much! I've been kind of out of fandom lately too, but am hoping new episodes will help revive my enthusiasm. Glad I could help out a little with yours!

I always smile when I see your name on BSG
fic. I adore the sharp insight and snappy
dialogue . And THIS Lee and Kara are the
ones I long for . Thanks so much for sharing them
with us.

You're welcome, and thanks for commenting. No one does spark and subtext like Kara and Lee, which is what makes them fun to write. There's just a whole playground of issues to work with, plus the whole dynamic of avoidance vs. (somewhat flawed) mutual understanding. I hope we get to see them interacting again before too long in season 3 (I avoid spoilers like the plague).

“After all, I haven’t agreed to marry you yet.”

Ouch. This is excellent. I wish I could say more, but that would require reading it about ten more times, not that I have a problem with that.

This was lovely. I really liked that you showed the slow, careful, and often frustrating process of them rebuilding their relationship, without taking the easy route of K/L at the end. Thanks for sharing it with us. :)
