Love this! I love Bill's subtle jealousy and how Laura reassures him. Adama beats Adar ALWAYS!!!! :) Thanks for sharing.

Your welcome, and thank you for your comment. I'm glad Bill's feelings came across, and Laura's reassurance. I wanted to write their possible convo about Adar but don't believe they ever would have discussed it overtly. So much was innuendo and unspoken between these two.

Ooh, very smart and satisfying! "He didn't negotiate with dissenters"- so true! And I love the reassurance in that last line.

[nvgvup]

Thank you! No, I don't think Adar would have handled Bill too well. Especially not once Bill found out the gorgeous redhead by Adar's side wasn't available :p

I like this. Laura's subtle reassurance is so her.

[nvgvup]

Thank you, I'm glad the dialogue feels in character. Laura's covert way of letting Bill know he's the only man in her heart <3

[hollywobbles]

This is really nicely written -- the cadence of the dialogue is very in character. Nicely done! I enjoyed it. :)

[nvgvup]

OOh thank you! The dialogue came first but I knew it needed a little narrative in between but was worried about ruining the whole thing! I'm glad it still read well.

my poor bill is jealous! damn adar... the man wasn't worthy of laura's attentions -,-
i love the way you built this conversation =) it feels so real, so them...

Okay, so you have to tell me how to do the heart!! I need hearts in all my comments :D

And back to your comment...I love how much we all HATE Adar. We got a few brief glimpses of the man and have built an entire empire of disgust around him! Of course what we got certainly wasn't good so I'm perfectly okay with Adar-hating! Though my head!canon is that he had at least a few redeeming qualities at some point - it's the only way I can justify Laura working for him.

♥ aussie taught me! you have to write & + hearts + ; without the + and the space XD or, if you're on a keyboard with the numbers on the right, you press alt and 3 and release at the same time =D ♥

♥ Did it work?

YAY!
