Abstinence Chapter 3: The Absence of Abstinence
Meanwhile, on a Cylon Basestar…
“Are you serious?” Gaius Baltar, who had been lounging on the red velvet chaise-longue leapt to his feet enthusiastically as D’Anna Biers came to perch next to him, a hand held computer console in her hand.
“Deadly…” She smiled wickedly before powering up the device.
“I can’t believe you were spying on me - and in my own office!”
D’Anna lifted her gaze to his temporarily, quirking an eyebrow at the ridiculousness of his statement.
“Well,” He harrumphed and started to pace the room. “I assumed that the newly appointed President Roslin would have swiftly airlocked every item that bore any connection to me.”
“You’d think so…” D’Anna tapped buttons on the touch screen, “But last time I checked, the painting was still propped against boxes in a corridor on Colonial One. “ She tapped something on the side of the screen, “I kept seeing pairs of ankles wander past…no conversation, very boring…”
Gaius stopped his pacing, intrigued. “When did you last check?”
“About 2 days ago…ah ha!”
“What? Is it working?” Gaius asked excitedly.
“Well they’ve moved it somewhere…” She tilted her head slightly, trying to make out the image on the screen - suddenly realising just what she was looking at. “Oh my!” She exclaimed and Baltar swore he saw the steely Cylon blush.
“What is it? Show me!” Gaius clambered back to sit next to her on the chair, “What’s that moving backwards and forwards?” He snatched the screen from D’Anna’s hands, accidently hitting the volume control - filling the room with panting and a very un-presidential like moan;
‘Frak me Bill, just like that…”
“Oh Gods!” Gaius wailed, forcefully shoving the offensive apparatus back in the Cylons lap - the image of The Admirals unmasked, twitching behind ingrained on his mind for ever “I’m blind!”
