This is an idea I always thought would be great for Laura and Bill!! I mean with those two great voices it fits them perfectly. :) I love the line She loved the sound of his voice. And spending her nights with him. Heh!! I'm sure they'll be meeting up soon!! Nice work and just in the nick of time!! :)

Bill has the perfect voice for late night radio.

Interesting choice, having him quote Nietzsche. In some ways Laura is an Overlord type -- she has, on many occasions, shown a less than overwhelming regard for virtues accepted by society. But though if Adama ever met this Laura he might be willing to be used, I doubt he is one of the ignorant slave-like masses, in any universe.

Nietzsche and AR? Why does that work? LOL Oh right, cuz u make anything work! Their voices are predestined for radio! I can totally see this happening in another universe. Beautiful as always, hon, thanks for sharing!

What a highly original use of the prompt, beautifully done!

I like the way this mirrors the telephone calls which helped them get to know each other better early in the series, when greatness had been thrust upon Laura and Bill wasn't sure that she was up to the job; when the balance of power between them was tenuous.

It feels so right to have the two of them awake and talking, thinking deeply while most people sleep. Bill and Laura, always drawn to one another, each the voice in the darkness the other needs.
