Love the chapter! Re. the author's note, I've known it happen in SF book series', but I don't think they would want to do it on TV. Can you see that getting by cable? *g*

=0 That was quick!

And I know, I know, but they could just...not put people in vacuums? XD; It's just a random pet peeve of mine.
Then again, that'd take away the awesomeness of Laura/Airlock love so I can't really complain.

Ooh. I like this chapter. Love it how you're slowly building momentum. And well done on including all those little things that remind us Gina isn't *quite* human...
Not to forget: Big thumbs up for presenting me with the lovely image of a sweaty, boxing Admiral Cain XD

*LOL* You're more than welcome! If only she'd survived to that episode when everyone on the Galactica was having it out in boxing matches.

lightbringer70 January 19 2009, 16:39:19 UTC

If she'd survived, I certainly wouldn't have. Gah. Imagine sweaty Cain boxing with sweaty Kara. XD

Wow, I hadn't thought of that but I just imagined it. X3 Mmm, good way to start the day!

This story is amazing so far! I love being inside Gina's head for a change, especially with her being a sleeper agent. Fabulous idea! I can't wait for the next installment!

It's great fun being able to write as her without there being this dooooom hanging on top all the time. =D I'm glad you're enjoying it too!

Cain boxing. Cain almost smiling. *contented sigh*

It's taken me a while to get to this fic. I'm really enjoying it. I like the idea of Gina being a sleeper agent. I'm wondering how significantly it will change the future we know.

If you could possibly write some more of Cain boxing or otherwise breaking a sweat, I would very much appreciate it. Mmmmmm.

It seemed like a fun idea to play around with, since I was lamenting one day that they kept saying "SOME EVEN THINK THEY'RE HUMAN" at the start of all those episodes in season one, and then Boomer has turned out to be the only sleeper agent we've actually seen. (Well, aside from the Five but I don't count them).

*grins* Thanks for the inspiration for 'Circumference'! ♥

I'm definitely enjoying this series. I don't always follow on-going stories but I couldn't resist this pairing - and this is really lovely. Excellent slow build up, with Gina's journal as a very clever device linking the past and her present.

I also think you've done brilliantly with Gina's characterisation, working off what little we saw of her and extrapolating an entirely believable personality. The sleeper agent angle is a fascinating one, and I think you've set it up very well so far. And the almost-flirting between her and Cain is truly gorgeous.

In summary, well played: more please!

Thank you so much, I'm really glad to hear that Gina's turning out okay as I've always been worried about that.
