Title: A Chance for Survival  
Characters/Pairings: Laura Roslin, Bill/Laura
Rating: K+
Spoilers: season four, though it’s rather general
Prompt: Guns
Word Count: 100

Laura had never liked guns, hated what they did to the youth she had guided through elementary school then lost to the uncertain and dangerous world beyond.

She refused to use one herself, even when her Captain Apollo pressed one into her hands for her own safety.

She hated the sound of gunfire; she’d heard her fair share of it over the past few years.

Laura hated guns.

Yet so long as Bill had one in his hands she felt he held a chance for survival and for that she was grateful to the cold metal that only brought death.
