The Director's Chair Challenge!

[kag523.livejournal.com]

Now that we’ve had some time to start thinking of our favourite fics, let’s move on to a new role – that of the Director.  For some time now, there have been rumours of a new series that would go roughly between Caprica and the Miniseries.  (Which in my deluded and fanfic-addled mind means happy, unencumbered pilots at the Academy.  Woot!) 

Now if this series was actually made, Katee Sackhoff and Jamie Bamber would clearly be too mature to play the roles of the late teens / early twenties cadets. (As much as I would ADORE seeing them in that role.) 

Talk and discuss and POST SOME PRETTY to support your choices.  (And BTW, if anyone needs advice on shooting any towel scenes, I have it on good authority, that nazkey has some *cough* experience in this regard and can give pointers on how it’s done.  *winks*)
 

If you need some fic to put you in the mood, I’m going to suggest these lovelies...  Thank you to both nazkey and sci_fi_shipper  for locating ALL of these for me.  Wow!

Since it was requested ... And I suck at hosting things it seems (got any clues) I will throw you a teaser scene it's between Kara and Helo at the moment, Kara has yet to meet Lee, though he has at this point seen her and liked what her saw.

INT. THE FLIGHT SCHOOL'S MAIN LECTURE THEATER

There are nearly 400 students filling the two tiered theater. A lecturer stands at a podium at the front of the theater a small table and a portable computer to his left and a white board and multiple color overlays to his right. He is mic'd up and has a receiver backpack hooked to his pants' belt. A Large projection screen shows a larger version of the lecturer and his accouterments.

We pan back to our intrepid duo in medium shot getting to their places as they scope out their competition and the theater, not to mention looking down on the stage from the second tier and sizing up the lecturer. They look at each other wide eyed and eyebrows raised. This is a little more than they expected.

LECTURER

Good Afternoon cadets, and welcome to flight 101 written in your schedules as Introductory aerodynamics and flight physics. It is in this class that we will begin weeding out the weeds from the flowers, so to speak. If you do not pass the high pass mark you will be booted to Raptors. If you can not pass the low pass percentage, you will be booted from flight school. You will have three options at that point. Marines, Non commissioned officer – if you are lucky and your third and final option will be to wash out. Is there anyone feeling that is where you are headed? If so, there are doors on either side of the room on both tiers. Make use of them.

They look at each other once more, this is a lot more than they expected. Helo already has the where's the door look, that a few of them have. Kara leans into him;

KARA

(whispering)

You may have to slim down a bit, and leave those candies alone. (off of Karl's confused look) Well it looks like I may have to carry your dumb ass.

Yayay! This is great! You should post it in a new comment so everyone can see it. These nested comments get collapsed and people won't know this gem is hidden here. Yippee!!
