I loved that little scene and the opera house and the way both Lauras are both thinking, and thinking so hard.

And Fierce Cylon!Laura is fierce :D
and arent Baltar and Ellen on board somewhere too?

I think Ellen is certainly onboard somewhere. One of the huge problems we had writing this was the timeline of 4.0. But it's established that Laura is kept under lock and key following her little bonding sessions with Caprica in Chapter 2. So it's entirely possible Baltar was wandering the corridors of the Basestar and walked right past Cylon!Laura's door. We discussed the possibility of Baltar meeting with her very briefly, and decided against it.
Thank you for reading :D

Her lips curled up in a tiny smile. It struck Bill that she looked so different from the woman he'd made love to only a few months beforehand, the woman who had a secret stash of weed and couldn't light a stove to save her life. Her smile could light up a room; this smile barely even reached her eyes.
I love this change, and it's so beautifully worded.
But there was something missing, something that had shone so luminously as she moved over his body that night amid the alluvial deposits. A piece of her soul, perhaps.
Wow, there's a whole story just in these two lines.
The rhythmic back and forth of the red blip on the wall seemed to take cue from her own heartbeat. She felt electrified, galvanized.
It's so interesting to see Laura adjusting to who and what she is.
Think of yourself as Laura 2.0.
No cancer?? Can Bill hang with this Laura after the unfortunate incident?? Hey, a girl can dream, right?
Great stuff!
