Summary:
“When you have something so precious to lose, that changes everything.”
As what remains of Galactica’s crew struggles to hold the crumbling civilian Fleet together, Louis Hoshi and Felix Gaeta decide they’re not going to put their hopes and plans for the future on hold anymore, even though the Fleet is no closer to finding a home than when Starbuck led them to a dead Earth. The prospect of becoming a father again revives memories of the family Louis lost on the Colonies and the lie he tried to live in order to be the perfect dad. Season 4.5 AU.
Notes: Written for bsg_bigbang and lgbtfest. Thank you so very, very much to my wonderful beta and artist lls_mutant, for everything from pushing me to describe more setting (turnabout is fun, huh?) to planting the seed of the idea for offing the one character I swore I wouldn’t touch, not to mention the truly gorgeous artwork. You know how special to me this fic is. Thank you so much for making it even more special.
