Written for Drabble Bingo, the prompt being "beyond the red line." My card is here, if anybody wants to have a look.
Beyond Doubt
A Pegasus pilot has sold him the jacket. Felix puts it on, checking his looks in the mirror.
He thinks of his first day of war - thousands of calculations ago - when Admiral Adama asked him if he could do it, plotting that first jump away from home.
He’d hesitated, yes, but his answer had been firm. It had just been math.
His answer to President Baltar was firm as well.
And it won’t just be math this time around.
He straightens his jacket one last time, turning to take his bag.
Time to cross a red line again.
