Kara/Lee fic recs: Act of Contrition & You Can't Go Home Again

[thrace-adama.livejournal.com]

Hi, everyone! Sorry this post is coming at you a bit late, but let's get rec'ing! After all, there are lots of great fics set during or after AoC/YCGHA (or at least featuring spoilers from the eps).

So, to just get us started:




leda13's Echoes of Atalanta

sloanesomething's Pointless BSG smut.

voleuse's Your Quaint Honor

(And I'm grasping a bit with those top three, but whatever)

sangga's Supply and Demand

stars_like_dust's Stupid Thing Last Night: The Videotape Edition

stars_like_dust and elzed's Stupid Thing Last Night: The Rewind (with a link to part 2 at the end)

widget285's Asterism (with a link to part 2 at the end)



And now, please do rec your own favorites!

Also: As I come across them, I do go back and add fics relating to previous eps to the lists. So if you think of any yourselves, or are just looking for more fic to read, be sure to check out those fic rec threads again. :)

One of my favorite YCGHA fics is spoonishly's Bum Wheel (http://community.livejournal.com/bsg_creative/22397.html).

Sorry, I didn't see that you had already recc'd Bum Wheel. It's great, isn't it?! The sweet sickbay banter and Lee spelling out notes on Kara's hand and the fact that he doesn't stop TOUCHING HER throughout the entire fic just melts me.

My favorite lines though:
“Deck crew’s already taking bets on who you’ll hit with your crutches first.” Lee takes the cup from her, rolls it between his fingers.
“Oh yeah? Who’s winning?”
Lee smiles shyly and that’s a rare sight. “Me, actually. Tigh’s gaining ground fast. Hot Dog’s a distant third.”

Sigh.

Oooh, yes, excellent choice.

Wonderful recommendations, I've read almost all of them (and will hurry to read the one I missed!). Here are a few others - sorry, I have a free account and can't hyperlink the titles...

Of Fancy by wisteria_ (this has vignettes covering multiple episodes, including the mini, 33, AoC, YCGHA, Colonial Day, and KLGI. #3 and #4 cover these two episodes.)

I know there are others, AoC and YCGHA spawned a lot of great fic - but I'll stop here for now!

Oh, "Sleep Study"! I just read that for the first time not too long ago. Love Brynn's stuff. Thanks for the recs!

I'm soo in love with sloanesomthing's Pointless BSG smut and the fabulous Stupid Thing Last Night series by stars_like_dust and elzed, thanks for reccing them! I've loved both of them for a long, long time, and the fact that they both feature my BPK of Lee wanking with Kara nearby has absolutely nothing to do with it....nothing at all....whistles innocently.... :)

And great job of catching that the later installments of STLN are post YCGHA, I glossed right over the fact that Starbuck's knee was still in the brace, which is hilarious given the way our dear pilots have to work around it toward the end, ha!
