( An Intangible Journey / Dominance / Playing Roles )

So a couple years ago, I did this BSG epic for NaNoWriMo. Finally, I've gone through and started the editing process, and one big chunk of it was a list of prompt words I got linked to by xdawnfirex (it was three years ago, and I don't have the direct community link any longer, unfortunately.) Some of them will work into the larger story, but many most of them didn't end up fitting into that timeline. Instead, I've edited them (thank you so much to ez_as_pi for the beta!) and I'm grouping them into loosely related chunks. 12 chunks, as a matter of fact, and thus begins the Twelve Days of Ficmas!

My goal is to post them in twelve parts over the next twelve days. They're entirely separate and autonomous though, so no worries about cliffhangers or missing parts.

Archive: Anywhere - just let me know!
Summary: After the Resistance, Kara has a new life as the Cylons' prisoner on New Caprica, but Lee is determined to bring her home.
Word Count: 11,824
Author's Notes: This was inspired by three things: Two of wisteria_'s fics: "Destiny's Rejects: A Cautionary Tale" and "The Greater Good", and the Season 3 promo trailer. It was supposed to be a brief, kind of dream-like fic of little snippets in time.

Then the muse ate my head. ::facepalm::

In the end, I wanted to really look at Kara's reactions to the idea and reality of motherhood, because it seems to be such a sharply divided issue in fic. I personally see it as something she never would have wanted for herself, but I wondered what it would take for her to accept it. And I wondered about Lee's reaction to Kara having a child. I also (because I am blatantly and unabashedly all about the Pilot!Love) wanted to "fix" the end of season 2. Which became more complex than I ever would have guessed (though I should have!) because try though I might I just couldn't make Anders into a total bastard. He really is a nice guy, drat it all. ;)

Shout-outs and thanks go to the following:

Brian, for giving me amazingly evil good ideas and insight regarding Leoben in particular. And for listening to me ramble about this for the last 3 weeks.
elflore, and serendipityxxi for reading every variation, paragraph, and proposal, usually at least three times as I worked this thing out and into its current form, and for offering skads of advice, opinions, suggestions, and occasional snippets of dialogue. I take full responsibility for any errors or faults remaining in the work. Quite likely if you find some, it's because I decided to be stubborn and do it my own way. ::huggles Elf in particular on that front.::
ez_as_pi for reading the final draft and giving me a fresh perspective on the mostly finished product. (As well as a hell of an ego boost. ::hugs::)
technosage for giving me prompts/suggestions on interactions between Kara and Eris. Was this the kind of thing you meant?

Yes, there is a sequel in the works.

Summary: It wasn't until the day that Lee reached the doorway of Galactica's makeshift school just in time to see his daughter hit Tyrol's youngest son Evan that he remembered the girl in the park.
Author's Note: Blame ez_as_pi. Totally. Her. Fault. Her Rapunzel Crack!fic is why. One little comment about a sandbox, and look what happens. Bunnies! So yes, fic for her, also because she's under the weather.

Much love to my beta(s), serendipityxxi (and also elflore who is buried in schoolwork right now.)

Feedback is love.

Idea roughly gakked from simons_flower

So I have this notebook of little snippets, prompts, etc. that I've been writing all week. Several of them (ok, a *few* of them) may even become real fic someday. That being said, I thought that I'd tempt the bunnies see if any of these might get stuck in anyone else's brain so that they'll write about it intrigue anyone else. Take a line, a thought, an inspiration or the whole kit and caboodle and do something with it.  I dare you. ::eg::

I'm not abandoning them, per se - but since two people aren't apt to come up with exactly the same thing, it shouldn't matter much if I do write more on them later.  Credit for the bit I provide would be appreciated, and I'd love to see what you do with it if you do use it.  ; )

SPOILERS for any and all of season 2 may apply.

Actually, not entirely true.  I have a random questioning type of thing for everyone, particularly my Fandom-type people.  (which, after seeing how long it was, I decided to put at the end.  BSG-immediate things first:)

I'm about to go mainline season 2.  I think I might need you guys to pray for me.  (oh, yeah, this is gonna frakking hurt....)

I have a fic-in-progress based from the Season 3 Trailer that went up yesterday(ish) (you can the non-Nickelback version here and the Nickelback version (my personal fav, cause yay! here.) - anyone wanna beta-read?  It's L/K ...

And the rest:

1.  Do you address yourself in your journal to different groups of people w/o necessarily limiting the view to that group?  Like, do you shout-out to a particular fandom, or your family, or someone individually, without f-locking it to a group or necessarily restricting it from anyone who stops by (as it were)?  Mostly wanting reassurance that I'm not quite as much of a freak as I sometimes think I am - which leads me to question...

2.  Are we different?  Are we, as fen, somehow essentially different (and please note that I don't use the term "better" or "worse" here - no one take offense at this line of questioning please) from other people in they way we look at the world?  Or at the very least this part of the world?  I mean, I know people who like shows.  Or like book series.  Maybe they even try to make it home in time to catch and ep, or go out and buy a new book the day it's out.  But that's (relatively) surface.  What I'm talking about is that feeling in your stomach that's like a flock of butterflies trying to get out, or bubbles trying to burst, that makes you happy and giggly and bouncy inside because you've discovered something.  saimhe said something once about how happy Fridays make her.  For me, at least, it's a lot like falling in love.  The characters have a reality because they matter to us, they "talk" to us (look at the fic, folks!  how many people talk about not being able to get a character to "shut up"?), and they influence us. 

It's obsession, and it isn't always a comfortable one.  Like being in love, you have to take the good and the bad, the wonderfully uplifting with the heartbreaking-ly depressing.  I wonder if it isn't something more essential than an intellectual interest.  Are we perhaps more apt to throw ourselves into things (many things, not just fannish things) with our whole hearts, rather than guarding ourselves?  Are we more willing to embrace the entirety of experience than other people may be?  And in this I mean in our whole lives.  The more I think about it, the more I think we are.  Those of you I know, I know that you tend to do things with your whole heart and soul, even if others think that it may not be such a good idea to do it that way.  (I keep thinking back to the last day of any number of Scaper gatherings and how many tears there are - not to mention how many laughs.)

(I didn't start this out to be this deep a thought pattern, but go with me here)  I know I'm more comfortable with myself around fen.  I'm more comfortable laughing as loudly as I want to or can, I'm more comfortable saying what's on my mind, and I'm more comfortable being hyper when I'm around you guys.  I'm more comfortable around you guys than I am around friends that in most ways I'm closer to.

-- to add a religious element here, this is the heart of Dionysian experience for me.  Ecstasis and catharsis require that total commitment to the thing.

This is me begging, pleading, down on my knees - I'm in search of just about anything Kara/Lee. BSG is my new crack (or possibly it is better likened to heroin?) and they are my new OTP. If I have trouble deciding between an icon saying OTP or BFF (best friends forever) then I'm completely sold. Love love love love love love love... and need fic and vids.

(especially because I just did a naughty thing and watched both ep 2x15 "Scar" and the last three minutes of "Lay Down Your Burdens, Part 2" with the season 3 trailer on Skiffy's Pulse. (Since I've only watched the Miniseries and eps 1x01 - 1x11 right now, needless to say I was a little traumatized.) And I think I kinda hate Anders. Haven't actually met him, but again, I watched "Scar" and was like "whimper?")

This show is gonna fucking break my heart into a million tiny peices isn't it?
