Well this one snuck by me. So, I'm curious to see where you're going with this. As always I want more, more , more Lee Kara but I always like grumpy Cottle.
Ok, I am woefully behind on this story. But I love Saul being Kara's father so I need to go back and re-read/catch-up!
Can you help me with something else in Wounded Wing too. What chapter does Sam come back in? Not only is this about the place I got behind, but I really want to read a story where Sam dies before he is revealed as a cylon. thank you!
Boomer discovers that Sam and Ellen are alive and cylons in chapter 97 Doors to the Past. Sam 'dies' earlyish in the story so you probably don't want to go that far back.
I went back and forth on the Saul as Kara's dad decision, but it fits so well for my story and many of the events in canon. Hope you enjoy this second half of the fic, it has more outside plot happening than the first/original half of the story.
Cool! I read the first half as you were posting, but I got behind when you started up again.
I always love when writers can play with canon in ways that are not canon like that, making Kara Saul's daughter.
Also it makes me think of an idea I had inspired by Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? where Kara is a cylon that Ellen created as a gift for Saul, as their child. I'll never write it because it's long complicated, like I have subplots for Boomer and Tyrol and Sam in addition to writing Kara/Lee (though I might twist it for something original one day hee.)
I just hated what they did with Kara's arc on the show, and really the cylons', too. So, while the first half is definitely Hurt/Comfort focused, I've taken the second half into 'fix-it' territory. I'm going to eventually go back and split them into two separate fics with the 2nd listed as a sequel.
Oh, I like your idea, but know what you mean about it being too big an endeavor. I've been writing this fic on & off now for three years. Just wish I weren't so slooooow!
Thanks for your post! Always happy when someone liked the first part enough to continue on :)

Also, I've forgotten to crosspost, so that's one reason. I'll have to fix that tonight when I have time.
Yes, Grumpy Cottle is always good, and Adama needed someone to give him a bit of a kick to get his head straight. K/L in next chapter--I promise!
I'll post the next chp asap, but I was on vacation then down with the 'cold from hell' and it's been sucking my ability to concentrate.
