no_takebacksMorning ladies and fanfolks :D (Well, it's almost afternoon here) I am posting early for two reasons - 1) I am going out. and 2) MOAR TIME FOR FICTIONS!!! which is always a good thing.
This is my final DPP this week and it is, indeed, yes, it is, a FIC MEME. An IN CANON fic meme inspired by some of the comments from the week's DPP discussions, and some interesting ideas from yesterday's missing scenes wishes.
The rules are simple and few:
1) Post prompts!!
2) FILL prompts!!
3) All fills MUST be wholly supported by canon - you CANNOT CHANGE THE OUTCOME OF THE SHOW IN ANY WAY. If you do you will be PUNISHED! (I'm not quite sure how, but there will be frosty looks and strongly worded letters involved I can tell you that much for sure)
4) Have fun!!!!
5) BE AWESOME!!!
And it's as simple as that. Obviously it would be nice if you could fill a prompt for every one you post, but I'm not going to impose it as a rule or anything because I feel like it discourages people from prompting, and we like prompts, so prompt freely and with abandon! Reckless Abandon (which is the title of an erotica novel my mother owned when I was young which I read when I was far too young and didn't understand AT ALL) if you so choose.
HAPPY WEEKEND EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!! (tiny exclamation marks for giant text makes me unusually happy) I am officially passing the DPP wheel over to the next lunatic.
It's been real, y'all

No Place Like Home
Date: 2011-07-03 04:53 am (UTC)There’s no place like home.
The old phrase is the first thing that comes to mind when Kara sets the stolen raider down on the surface of Caprica and steps out to see the remains of the place she once called home. She snorts at the thought. “No one thought about the Cylons coming back and turning ‘home’ into a nuclear wasteland when they made that up, did they?”
She had been sent back home, back to Caprica, on what was practically a suicide mission to retrieve the Arrow of Apollo for President Roslin. Now, as she moves to enter the Delphi Museum, she looks up at the yellowed sky caused by the radiation from the Cylons’ nuclear strike on the colonies, and realizes that this nuked shell of a planet is not ‘home’ anymore. There were no signs of life, just destruction. Ruins of buildings hinting that this place had once been home, but not anymore. After the annihilation of the colonies, the Colonials were left with no home, forced to always be on the run, constantly fighting for their lives. No one had a home anymore, certainly not Caprica. She approaches the display case that holds the artifact she jumped back for, keeping the adage in her head so she doesn’t focus on the destruction that surrounds her.
As Kara spends more time on the Cylon-infested planet, the remembered saying becomes less and less fitting for the place she sees. Without a doubt, she knows she can’t consider this Caprica home, not after seeing the affects of the nuclear holocaust. The empty buildings and streets. The Cylons. The Resistance. The farms, with women hooked up to machines and being forced to carry human-cylon hybrids. Nothing about this place is home.
But when she makes her way back to the fleet and feels Lee’s arms, tight, around her on the Astral Queen, she sees that while Caprica might be an uninhabitable wasteland that was not home to anyone, Galactica and the Adamas have become her home and family. And although life on Galactica, always on the run from the Cylons and searching for a place to settle down, was extremely far from easy and perfect, when compared to a place like Caprica, there was no place like home.
