DPP: Texts From Galactica
Jul. 11th, 2011 08:42 amHello everyone! I'm
pressdbtwnpages and I will be behind the wheel this week!
I assume most of you have heard of Texts From Last Night and the meme Texts From Galactica. (Basically, people submit embarrassing text messages they've sent/recieved and for the meme fans pick through to find apt texts to post to BSG screencaps.)
Your missions:
1) Create your own piloty "Texts From Galactica" using Texts From Last Night and screen caps. (This does not require a fancy graphics program. You can do it in a "paint" program in about three minutes! You will however need to resize your images to around 600 pixels.)
2) Pick a text from Texts From Galactica (or the texts your clever shippers create in the comments) and write a fic/ficlet/drabble for them.

I think that's because there really isn't much sitting around talking innocently in Pilots. Most scenes with them are loaded with subtext - desire, sadness, frustration, love, hurt, anger... Because there's always so much happening between them innocent sitting just doesn't happen.
