Aw! So intimate (he not having to say "good morning", the grooming, the...well, everything, really). Such intimacy for people who haven't been "intimate" yet...expands the idea of what intimacy means :-)

The dream of the sacred type of tattoo just did me in. The ritual, the touching,

I love terse!Bill of few words, and Laura's reactions.

And how careful he was with her red clothes :-)

Bill stopped in his tracks. “Good?” he groused. And we have a touch of insecure!Bill.
You capture a very positive atmosphere of New Caprica, primitive, rustic, but with weddings, festivals, street vendors...what it could have been if the Cylons hadn't shown up. Lovely and I eagerly look for more!

I'm a great believer that you can have intimacy without sex. If you're in the camp that Bill and Laura never actually had sex until Disquiet, fine. But you have to admit they were still a couple long before that.

Glad you liked the tattoo part. For some reason I see Carolanne insisting that Bill ignored his Tauron roots, but that Laura would be fascinated.

You capture a very positive atmosphere of New Caprica, primitive, rustic, but with weddings, festivals, street vendors... They have a positive outlook during groundbreaking. Unfortunately, things must go pear-shaped from there.

Thanks for letting me know you enjoyed! :)

Your kung fu is the best!!

I love possible drug induced vision/fuzzy memory.

I love even more that by the end we are less not more sure about what might have happened. Perfect!!!

As always you capture ease of intimacy between them and all of the underlying desire so well.

And them walking through the marketplace felt so alive and real. I wanted some of those nuts!!!

Anxiously awaiting chapter 2. Yews I am!

Your kung fu is the best!! I'll just nod and pretend I know what that means. :)

I love even more that by the end we are less not more sure about what might have happened. I would say they'll never know! Unless they start asking around for the priest and the tattoo artist. Oh -- *making notes*

As always you capture ease of intimacy between them You know I love when they are domestic.

Gods, I had a moment where I thought this was all there and got all ticked, but then I realized there'll be MOAR!

Oh, wait, you're writing 10 other things too...Darn. :( Just so long as it's not finished for next year's birthday!

I love that it took her a bit to focus in on the fact that Bill has no idea what happened either. Oh, the possibilities there! Obviously her Billsense was spongy too.

And you know I'm a sucker for Laura knows about Lee and Kara while Bill is oblivious. But then the hilarious twist of doubting her assumptions because of her own state of uncertainty.

The munchies!

“Yes, Bill,” she said in her most placating tone. “When we have sex, I’d like to think it was special enough to remember.”

I love this! What a great, awkward, morning-after encounter :)

I love the feeling that part of why neither is too worried about not remembering what happened is because they're really both okay with just about anything that might have happened between them. They are comfortable enough with one another to accept anything. Of course, they wouldn't mind remembering, because then they'd have eve more good memories!

Lovely image of New Caprica and the domesticity and level of ease between Bill & Laura - him putting on her boots...kill me now!

I truly think this is one of the most attractive things about Bill and Laura. That they are friends and that they trust each other so much from Kobol onwards. They would never knowingly hurt each other.

Shoe putting on is oddly intimate, isn't it!
