Fly Me to the Moon // Let Me Play Among the Stars
Characters: Archie Kennedy, Kara Thrace
Rating: PG-13 (probably)
Time Period: Modern
Location: The Ace Cottage
Relative Date: Winter
Status: Complete
It was cold outside -- cold enough that Archie was in greatcoat, gloves and boots. To make matters worse, his nose and ears felt as if they might freeze right off his head. It was his fault, too. Who else could he blame? No one was standing there keeping him out in the snow.
He had been waiting long enough, though. Willing the words to be on his lips had done nothing but make his throat dry. The more he tried, the less came to mind. He felt cold, inside and out, like a lonely windswept windmill. And, really, didn't it mean something that he felt that way? As miserable as it was, it meant he had feelings (robot or not,) and there was not a lot that was going to change that.
Of course, this revelation would lead him to one place: Chateau Thrace. He wasted no time, trying the front door and finding it unlocked. If kicking off the loose snow from his boots against door frame didn't alert her to his presence, surely his proclamation would. "Honey, I'm home!" Ah, the age-old humor of it. Not-so-idly, Archie wondered if the joke would translate properly into Kara's very similar Caprican index.
