Battlestar rec: no one screams so lovely raw as Kara Thrace

Except maybe Peter Petrelli, my God. But I digress.
Please, please, please, Lords of Kobol: do not let RDM (and/or the PTB) ruin this season of Battlestar Galactica, I beg you! Because a bad end would, I think, retroactively spoil the whole series; I can live with last season's rushed pacing and superficial narrative, its ridiculous attempts at romantic subplots--the Quadrangle of Doom (TM), gak--and general sloppiness: I can fix most of that by substituting fanon for canon in my mind. But if the revelation of the final Cylon's identity (who I kind of want to be an Adama), or of what (where and especially when) Earth is, or of the Cylon God's master plan (as well as the origin of the Cylons' faith in him) were a disappointment it could taint the entire universe they have built. It makes me so nervous. But no matter what happens, there will always be fic. This one is perfect:
"Eleusis" by MercurialWit (Kara/Leoben, Kara POV) A speculation piece covering the time between Maelstrom and the final moments of the finale, almost certain to be Jossed: what Kara experienced while she was gone (dead), and how it prepares her to become what she was born to be--Artemis, Aurora, Persephone, Kore. Delightfully thinky, and quite fun.

ficrecs, battlestar
