Le cœur a ses raisons que la raison ne connaît pas
Just a short sappy scene for our Queen of RCT. Spoilers for Epiphanies.
For ar_drabbles challenge 51, set in sickbay.
"I just have one question, Admiral. Why?" She was pale, frail, but her voice was stronger than ever.
"There was no other choice."
"There's always a choice."
"We didn’t survive the Cylons to have Baltar take over the government."
"You could have staged a coup."
"I think I've learned my lesson about that, Madam President."
"So why?"
"I don't see Earth around the corner."
"Admiral Atheist is basing his actions on the Scrolls? The truth. Why?"
"A cure for cancer? Humanity's been looking for one for centuries."
"How scientifically noble of you. Why, Bill?"
"Because I couldn't lose you, Laura."
