BSG fic recs for women who didn't make it into the show's opening credits

Apr 25, 2010 18:39

ave some gen (or mostly gen) women-centered Battlestar Galactica fanfics. These stories are NOT mainly about Laura, Kara, Athena or Caprica Six. They're about other women: primarily about them, written from their POV, or they play a major role. The four women I just mentioned by name do appear in some stories, but I tried to make sure those ( Read more... )

fic rec, bsg

Thank you for the recs, and great list!

You're welcome!

You are awesome! More about BSG's forgotten women to read! I love some of these. I read almost everything lls_mutant's writes if it's not too similar to something I'm in the process of writing. Others of these I haven't read before or haven't read in a long time. Yay, more reading!

I really like Lost in Space on a Desert Island by ivanolix. Four women working together to save the day. :-) I have to rec this story again some time soon in my own journal.

You didn't rec your Jean Barolay story? I love that one!

I added Jean to the list now. I just got tired earlier, and it was just a bit past where I stopped...

No worries! Jean is here now. :-) Oh, and Jean isn't just written with Sam. It's not gen but JEAN. You know I will take any Jean. :-)

Someday someone needs to write what went down with her and PTSD!Six. For reals. Natalie tried to work that out with PTSD!Six and it didn't work. :-( I don't think it's in me to write it but maybe if I put it out into the universe . . .

You should hit bsg_femslash, I'm pretty sure there's fic for that one there.

Thanks!

Eee! Thanks for the recs, and this is an AWESOME list!

kappamaki33's got a couple more- one of my favorites of hers is Five Times Dee Didn't Play Cards, and One Time That She Did. I also really like her Mathematics, but it's not gen. I LOVE "Do No Harm", but you cited that one already.

Great list!

rose_griffes April 26 2010, 01:29:44 UTC

Apparently kappamaki33 doesn't know the rule that I must be made aware of ALL genfic about secondary female characters. (I added two more of hers to the list, thanks! Now I need to comment on them and put them in my bookmarks.)

lls_mutant April 26 2010, 01:44:29 UTC

Whoohoo!!!! Glad I could help!

What a fantastic list. Not the least because I haven't read everything on it. ;)

Yay, I'm glad it's useful!
