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!

Kara vows bitterly that she is never speaking to Lee Adama again. She holds firm through their next AP class. It was easy, almost like cheating, thought since other pairs are called up to the sims. Her chest puffs up right there in the middle of class when she thinks that she doesn’t even need to talk to him.

Until Crashtest and Beta bite it trying to out performs their doubles score. Theirs. Starbuck and Apollo.

She wants to gloat to Lee that they’re still the best in the class so bad it hurts. Instead, she glares at him across the room. His oblivion adds to her frustration. Of course, he doesn’t care. He’s the son of frakking Zeus. Of course, he can put up top marks. He’s the god of the sun. Of course, he wouldn’t. She’s no goddess of anything.

Kara bolts from her chair, rushes from the sims room. She makes it as far as the spot where he kissed her and stops dead. Her lip is bleeding. She wipes at the blood and forces the raw skin away from her teeth. It’s not going to work. She chews without even realizing most of the time. Her fists clench as a counter reflex.

As she’s thinking about not biting her lip, she scans the quad, the old brick buildings, the cadets in their sharp blues. This is her salvation. She’s not going to let Lee Adama frak it up for her. Her hands go limp. With a deep sighing breath, she spins on her heel and slams right into him coming out the door.

“Frak, Lee! What the frak do you want?” She yelps. Now, her nose hurts almost as bad as her lip. He’s just grinning at her.

“What?” He still just beams at her. Then he scoops her up into his arms and literally twirls her. Her. No one twirls Kara Thrace.

“Put me the frak down, Adama!”

But he squeezes her tighter and whispers. “We get to fly, for real, you and me. Next week. Real vipers. Can you believe it?”

Her eyes grow so wide she thinks they might fall right out. This time she kisses him.

Thanks.

I have one more section if I can get it out before I watch Fringe with my husband. Well, rewatch, but don't tell him. ;)

FRINGE! Last week's epi is what got me shipping. Crap.

BTW, did you notice that the crazy dude is Socinus (sp?) from BSG mini? Hee.

FRINGE! Last week's epi is what got me shipping. Crap.

That's why I had to sneak in an early viewing. I've been trying not to ship them since about episode 3. Like if I rewatched the first 5 epis, I could tell you the scene. My husband is not a shipper so I've been putting it off. I knew as soon as Bolivia had darker hair that I was a goner. *sigh*
