I haz written more fanfic :D
Again, just another little tiny scene that showed up in my head.
Um...spoilers for the flashbacks in the finale, sort of?
Something was broken, she thought to herself the next morning. And she thought maybe it was her.
"Really, Kara?" she thought, incredulous and sarcastic. "His brother? Your frakking finance's frakking brother? How sappy and cliche can you get?"
Sure, she'd been drunk, but if there was one thing Kara Thrace could do as well as she could fly a viper, it was hold her liquor. Certainly better than Zak. And she could fly better than him, too. There was very little she couldn't do better than Zak.
In fact, maybe it was a broken woman who said yes to a proposal from a man who didn't challenge her. Maybe daring to be challenged to be her best, to risk not always winning, was a sign of starting to become less broken.
She mulled that thought over in her mind. It wasn't the obvious lie to herself that the drunk excuse had been. Could she trust it? Could she be sure it wasn't just lust talking? No. She couldn't.
