Chapter 4

Three weeks later - weeks of avoidance and angry silence punctuated by bitter arguments - Sam cornered Kara in her office one evening.

“President Roslin’s offered me a position on her security team.”  He stared at her bent head until she gave in and looked up at him.  “I’m going to take it.”

She swallowed hard.  “But that means you’ll

Don't apologize for the Kara angst, but you do it so well! This chapter make me freakin' tear up!

I loved the sneakiness of Adama in pulling in Helo and Roslin, the intensity of those interactions, Starbuck's guilt and her breakdown when talking to Adama--all very nicely written.

Yep, everyone's ganging up on Kara in this chapter...for her own good of course :)

I enjoy writing angst so much I get worried I over-do it sometimes. :)

I'm all choked up--man, the scene between Bill and Kara is so emotional, so filled with heartbreaking angst!

I'm glad Kara was able to get it out. It's only right that she get it out with Bill. Maybe now she will be able to heal somewhat.

He never quite believed in himself, but he always rose to the occasion.--this is so Lee.

You really know how to get to a person's heart.

Looking forward to chapter 5.

Excellent job!!!

Everyone who has commented on this chapter seems to get tearful over that Bill and Kara scene. I thought he was the only person who could get through to Kara, because he's suffered as deep a loss as she has.

Last chapter I was about to cry, this I'm in fact crying. This Adama/Kara scene is so heartbreaking!!!

This does seem to be the tearjerker chapter for everyone. :)

I really like your Adamas icon!

Waaahhhhhh.... don't apologize, this fic keeps making me cry, and you know, not in a bad way. It's beautiful and heartbreaking. I need to know what happens!

Thanks for such a lovely comment. I always tend to pile on the angst at the beginning of my stories - well, you have to give the characters some crisis to overcome! - and then I get worried I've piled it on too high and readers won't stick with me through to the happier parts. So thanks for the reassurance.

Dude, I'm so all about the angst. Seriously, ask anyone. I loves it, precious. It's part of why I'm so addicted to BSG, it's a total angstfest. And the pretty doesn't hurt either.

I'm so all about the angst.

Ah, a kindred spirit. :) That's why I love BSG too, and I must admit I'm really enjoying the whole L/K adulterous relationship of doom storyline at the moment. Lots of nice juicy angst.

I do occasionally try to write something that's not chock-full of angst, but I just don't get those kind of ideas...

And the pretty doesn't hurt either.

As your icon nicely demonstrates!

Bill's a dirty fighter! I love how he got Kara to talk to him and to get it all out.

Great chapter!

You don't get to be an admiral without learning how to fight dirty. :)
