Title: A Woman Scorned
Author: Aussie
Rated: T

For the prompt of a/r from another POV in season one. I'm not sure this worked out how I wanted. I picked the character first (yes, I was trying to be clever *snort*) and...oh well, see what you think...

failure is not an option )

prompt no 5: through another's eyes, genre drama, rated t, fanfic, by bsg_aussiegirl

She’s plain. Her nose is too long, her jaw too square. She wears a satin blue blouse that is cut low, exposing the lines of her neck. Her makeup is amateurish and overdone. It doesn’t even begin to hide the rings beneath her eyes. Her hair is flicking out at the ends in an old fashioned style. I uncharitably decide she is hiding wrinkles under the fringe flopping across her forehead. XD you're evil! if there wasn't your name on top i'd say it was bugs LOL

you're not a six fan i suppose =P i love this: I certainly didn’t think I’d view my failure as a failure.
very clever choice in the character, loved it! =D the mirroring of his hesitation too ♥ and the ending =D

Six? Guess it depends on which Six. Shelly's not my fav, trying to steal Laura's man! LOL

Thanks hon. :)

*crossing all six arms*

I'm here, you know. :-|

This is how pathetic I am. You'd told me you were doing Shelly, and I *still* tried to make this story from Romo's cat's POV.

But I have always found the Sixes very animal-like, that's probably it. For a character(s) who was all through the show, truly, Six is a blank canvas and not in a good way. I really like the characterization you gave her here.

Oh, I guess the squashing into the bulkhead thing sounds like a cat! *head desk*

You're right about her being a blank canvas. When I started writing, I realised I had no idea how to write her!

Awww, awkward flirtiiiings!!!! ;D

Very good pov -- I like how you committed to it. Shelly certainly doesn't think much of Laura, visually! She'd better be careful or she'll have some fangirls to reckon with. ;)

I also loved that "I certainly didn’t think I’d view my failure as a failure" line.

Awkward flirtings, but I'm sure they got it on when they got back to his quarters. hee.

Shelly certainly doesn't think much of Laura, visually! LOL, I really liked that Farrah hairstyle, so it killed me to dis it!

I also loved that "I certainly didn’t think I’d view my failure as a failure" line. See, that's my Bill!fangirl blood. Imagine hoping he'd knock you back? LOL

The plot hole. Yeah, I probably should have rewatched the Plan, but hey, I didn't feel up to torturing myself. *snort*

You know I'd have to add flirting/eye frakking even in season 1. :)

You're not missing much. I thought they'd explain a few things. The final five in particular, but no. They did show what happened to Shelly. Cavil airlocked her. But I just can't remember if she went willingly or not. That's what I should have checked...but, oh well...
