Two questions today:

1. What's your personal fanon for how Starbuck and Apollo got their callsigns? There's no official reason given in the show (I'm told Kara's is explained in one of the comics, which I have but haven't read yet, but having read most of the comics, I'm rather loathe to count them as any kind of canon) but there has to be a reason she came out Starbuck and he Apollo. (Because there were characters with those names in the original is NOT a valid reason)

2. What advice would you give to a person for whom BSG was her/his first "real" fandom? How would you explain fandom to a newbie?

I'm pretty sure that Apollo is a reference to Zeus (Adama) and Lee's reaction to the callsign would probably back that.

As for Starbuck, I'm going to cheap out and post a link to a chapter that explains it:

Sorry ladies, but I'm writing fic like a fiend, and can't summarize right now. *shuffles papers*
