I'm not having the best of weeks so I thought we'd talk about something that normally cheers me up. Love it or hate it, everyone seems to have an option about...


BABYFIC!

When it's done right (sometimes even if it's done wrong), there's no denying there's some great fic out there to read. What is your opinion on it? Is it a love/love, or love/hate? So let me have your best recommendations.

Here's my list:

Unexpected Consequences by CrysWimmer on ff.net.
Now, this probably isn't the best written fic out there, but it was one of the first fics I read where Kara and Lee had a child. I still like to go back for a re-read every now and then.

'All Is Not Loss'
'The Long Way Home'
'Wing and a Prayer'

Insanity Underrated by [livejournal.com profile] amidala_thrace
In case you're living under a rock, this fic is still a WIP but there's usually a chapter or two a week. One of the best representations I've seen of Kara and Lee having a child together.

This is one of my all-time favorite fics. Stop what you're doing and go read. I can't wait for her to post the sequel.

Lies I Not Need To Tell by [livejournal.com profile] ez_as_pi
Sort-of AU - What if the move to New Caprica took and everyone settled down. Now what happens when Kara wants a child and Sam can't have any because of his time spent on Caprica. Who does she turn to?

Also, does anyone have any good recommendations where either Kacey ends up staying with Kara or is really her daughter? I really don't see enough of those fics anywhere!


Kacey and Kara thank you for your time.

[livejournal.com profile] rayruz's "Not the Colonial Dream" parts I and II are favorites of mine, and I do love the pregnant Kara stuff in the epilogues of Tara and Bee's Smutstrav...

Did you manage to convince your collaborators to name the kid Tobias Zakary Adama?

This is the first I'm hearing of it. Huh. Why Tobias? For the actor who played Zak's real name?

That and the plethora of Toby fans who showed up to vote that day....

As in Tobias Zachary Ziegler (West Wing) if I remember right there was a thread in Bee's last bit where it was tossed around

Esp. since Bee is a JOSH girl all the way. Heh

Yes, well, so am I, but it just kinda happened at the time of the name the baby thread.

Hee. Yes, yes I am.

But you can't not love Toby. It's just not the fiery all-consuming passion I feel for my man Josh. ; )

THIS!!!

Josh is Josh and Toby is Toby...you can't not love the gruff "Babies come with hats"

Wait, didn't you? Why do I remember Lee pouring over the new settlement's constitution, and Kara looking over it with him while Papadama watched the (still unnamed in the fic) tyke. And then clearing his desk and putting it to far better use one last time?

AM I GOING CRAZY?! (This last is entirely possible and not nearly as distressing as I'm making it sound, but I'd still like to know.)

did you read Detour (http://workerbee73.livejournal.com/69909.html#cutid1)?

the desk thing was a pornbattle entry by tara

That's the one.

Plots, I remember. Fic titles and authors... Not always so much.

Bee's talking about the actual getting born of the baby. Now I understand.

I know what you mean..luckily, I bookmark just about everything, so if I can remember the author/site/first word in the title, I'm usually OK

Let's not forget naming the Nugget, as well

This is my smutstrav extra Frak Democracy you're talking about. But...the kid is never named in it. :)

(Oh mine jumped ahead. Bee wrote part one of the actual birth, but has yet to return to it and write part two. That's why she's saying the baby will be "born someday")

Word. Ray just sent me the link a few days ago and it's now firmly lodged in my absolutely favorite fics.
