BSG ficlet - Farewell

[suffolkgirl]

Lee waited for the jump in Galactica’s observation lounge.  From that viewpoint his father’s raptor was only a tiny dot among the other ships, but his trained eyes easily picked it out.  He stood there in almost complete stillness, gaze tightly fixed.  He wanted to keep his father in sight as long as he possibly could.

He was so engrossed in his

Oh, I so miss my piloticians! I do hope we get some of those scenes in canon, because hot damn, it's so good to read them.

Also, a little snogging wouldn't go amiss, imho.

Very nice, though... ;)

[suffolkgirl]

Yes, it would be nice to see them get some screen time again!
Glad you liked it. :)

Aw, this was sweet. I really enjoyed it!

I'm particularly amused that Kara never knew his full name--yes, I think she would have mocked him mercilessly if she'd known before.

[suffolkgirl]

Oh Kara would have definitely mocked him about 'Leland' - and I liked the idea that he'd spent years carefully hiding it from her. :) Glad you enjoyed this.

That was lovely. Just lovely. Enough teasing to be suggestive and bring my mind back to season 1 pilots, but not enough to undermine the seriousness of both Lee's relationship with her and with his father.

Well done! I really hope to see something like this in the next few episodes...

[suffolkgirl]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it. Let's hope they actually get a scene together in the remaining two episodes (haven't seen the Hub yet).

[tracyj23]

I have and they do. Won't spoil you any more than that. But I'm really hoping there will be more in the next episode - considering it's the last one before the 6 month hiatus.

Oh my! I *adore* this. :D

I love how you draw the connection of Lee seeing his father off between now and the old days. Nothing seems changed, yet everything has.

And of course I always love the way you write Kara. ;)

I'm happy to see Lee remembered poor Gaeta, and made a mental note to see him on his way out! Well done.

This is exactly what I needed. Thank you!

[suffolkgirl]

Everyone should remember poor Gaeta. :) I'm very fond of his character.

I'm particularly glad you enjoyed this, as that conversation we had gave me the push to actually sit down and write this out.

yay!! I love it!
it was such a sweet and yet fun fic to read, just what I needed.
I really missed your fanfics, I love the way you write Kara and Lee, plus I must confess that the minute I heard Leland I thought "omg Kara will tease him so much for that" so I was very happy to read you wrote about it.
Plus I can imagine them leaving Adama behind and not looking for the other. She searching for him and him saying that he had hope it was perfect.
thanks :)

Thanks, I'm really pleased you enjoyed it. I haven't felt in a BSG writing mood recently, but like you when I heard Leland I thought about Kara teasing and had to write it.
