If...
If I hadn’t been given the assignment to the Galactica for her decommissioning ceremony I would have suffered the same fate as almost every other Battlestar and the officers that served aboard them.
I would have died more than likely in a ball of flame. A good way to go in theory but when you’re trapped behind a set of controls you can’t use it’s probably one of the worst ways.
All you can do is watch on as the sharp lines of a Cylon Raider cuts through space towards you, that infernal red eye flashing back and forth and just knowing that there’s nothing you can do.
You’re a victim of your own technology.
If I hadn’t taken my father’s Viper, I wouldn’t have been able to defend Colonial One and Roslin would never have become President and our story would be different. As it is, the world’s a warped place because a motherfrakker like Gaius Baltar is in power.
There are a lot of, “Ifs,” in my life, too many to count and far too many to talk about in one post. A lot of things could be different if I had done something another way but life is this way and I don’t think I have time or the inclination to regret anything.
I made my decisions and I’ll stand by them, for better or for worse.
