no_takebacksGreetings and salutations, 'shipper nation! This is Amy, known on your internets as ![[info]](https://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif)
ninjamonkey73, and I'm driving the DPP bus this week. Sit back and enjoy the ride...
Lee and Kara are timeless. Our fandom is spilling over with great AU works. Let's talk about how you like to imagine Lee and Kara outside of their post-apocolyptic space adventure.
Wikipedia gives the following definition at the page on Alternate Universes:
Later today, I'll post a follow-up poll to nail down the exact rewatch details so we can get a calendar together.

Wikipedia gives the following definition at the page on Alternate Universes:
Commonly abbreviated AU, stories of this type are usually what-ifs, where possibilities arising from different circumstances or character decisions are explored. Unlike regular fan fiction, which generally remains within the boundaries of the canon set out by the author, alternative universe fiction writers like to explore the possibilities of pivotal changes made to characters' history, motivations or environment.
Link to your fav AU pieces (have you read ![[info]](https://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif?v=1){kind=small}
rayruz's Did I Fall Alseep Dollhouse crossover?), write something new (comment!fic will get you a virtual cookie), hypothesize about other universes where the characters of Kara and Lee are still our pilots without necessarily being pilots, per se.
Later today, I'll post a follow-up poll to nail down the exact rewatch details so we can get a calendar together.

But I really like the idea of Spy!Pilots. I actually wrote a story for
Teacher!Pilots is also awesome. Think about it! Inner city high school, Lee teaches Civics, Kara teaches Physics. Can't you see them breaking up fights, strategizing in the
ready roomteacher's lounge, reporting to Principal Adama and Vice Principal Tigh? Dude, Tyrol is the gym teacher. And Baltar is the English teacher. OMG THIS MIGHT EAT MY BRAIN.Hee. Great prompt!
cheers.
