Oh, man - that ending... Such a sad prompt, I thought. Very well executed, and the amount of angst you've just stored up for the Adama men - gah!

Sigh.

Thank you. I'll admit, I find it hard to even think about the upcoming grief. Poor Adamas :(

I'd given up on this so much I'd actually just totally forgotten.

This was... perfect. Really, perfect. Thank you so much for stepping up to do this. And keeping the dialogue pretty much word for word was so emotive.

Thank you!

Thank you! I'm so glad you liked it. I had a lot of fun with the prompt (even though it has such a sad outcome). So really, thank you. And yay!

Oh Shah, it fits so, so well!! I could totally see this as an alternate course of events.

I loved this line: It’s not like he’s coming to see you, Thrace, she told herself. So stop being so frakking girly about it.

I was also intrigued by the hints at the start about that day in the brig.

And how they can't stop themselves from thinking even though they don't want to.

Yay! Nice job.

Thank you! I'm fond of that line too. :)

I was also intrigued by the hints at the start about that day in the brig.
Heh, to be honest, I have no idea what happened that day in the brig. I just figured it had to be significant, given her reaction to Tigh's questioning, plus the fact that Lee was there. But I took the lazy way out.

Anyway, thank you again!

That was such an intersting prompt. It could have gone many ways. Good job

Thank you very much! And I'm glad I got the countdown right, as that was just about the most importance scene for me :)
