Fic: Humanity, Deity (BSG: Gaius Baltar, T)
Title: Humanity, Deity
Author: Trialia
Fandom: Battlestar Galactica (2003)
Rating: K+
Word Count: 143
Character(s)/Pairing(s): Gaius Baltar, Baltar/Six
Spoilers: non-specific third season concepts
Summary: Still not God.
You’re not God, whatever you are. You hate to think the last part of that sentence: it exposes your doubts about your humanity. And really, if you are - were - a Cylon sleeper agent, you’d be the last to know, wouldn’t you?
Well, perhaps not. Maybe everyone else is really dead and you’re just dreaming this. How would you know otherwise? Electrical signals interpreted by your brain, that’s all. You could be on drugs or your deathbed and just hallucinating everything.
She’s still here, that damnable blonde siren of a Cylon, in your mind.
She’s not God, either.
When did you become a believer, anyway? Science can explain everything, as you well know. Even sexual attraction is only data from your nerves and electrical signals from your brain.
But that still doesn’t explain - no, best not even to think about it.
Still not God.
