BSG/TSCC Fic: One-Winged Birds

[beccatoria]

People. This is what happens when I'm bored, stressed, unemployed and unable to vid because I'm still re-ripping all my source. No, not macros this time, 1300 words of un-beta'd crossover fic because I just rewatched charmax's vid and it's still awesome. Also I meant for there to be more Ellison. But it didn't happen. BOO.

Title: One-Winged Birds

Thank you! I'm glad it came across as in-character.

And dude, like, my biggest hope for this season is that Ellison finally get to hang out with the Connors for more than half an episode. ::loves on Ellison::

Eeee!!!! This is awesome! These two canons cross over so nicely--so many of the same ideas, yet handled so differently, and you do a good job showing both the alignments and the diversions. And I love the bird imagery.

And do you have ANY IDEA how much I now want to see Ellison and Caprica have a conversation about God????

[beccatoria]

Yay! Thank you. I am fascinated by the way they deal with exactly the same stuff in totally different ways. I'm so pleased to hear that that came across here.

And do you have ANY IDEA how much I now want to see Ellison and Caprica have a conversation about God????

PROBABLY ABOUT AS MUCH AS I DO.

I really wanted to fit it in here. It was totally my "justification" for wanting Ellison on Team Connor (you know, aside from the fact he NEEDS TO BE THERE ALREADY). But it wasn't working. So I had to drop the idea and just hope that the mention of religion would at least, I dunno, click for some people as something that both series have going on.

A tear slides down Caprica's cheek. “I really thought it would be different this time. But all of this has happened before, and all of this will happen again. They're going to turn against you. They'll kill you all.”

Derek grins. It's absolutely enormous. “Lady,” he says. “Tell us something we don't know.”

Squeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!

Yay! :D Glad you liked it!

Oh, I want this crossover as much as I want BSG/Firefly now. (Even though I've only seen the first season of TSCC.) What a head-trip it would be for the Conners to run into one of the Cylons, especially Caprica.

“I like her.”

Ahaha. Yes, I think they would get along. And I would love to see what Cameron and Caprica would make of each other.

Perhaps it's more like adrenaline and a conviction that life-threatening situations are no reason to forget the hell about etiquette.

“Yes,” Cameron says. “Bond. When individuals become closer through shared experience. We have a lot in common. We're both slaves.”

That is so Cameron.

I love it!

Thanks! Glad you like it. I've always had really conflicted feelings about BSG/Firefly. Because on the one hand it has the potential to be so awesome I explode. On the other, Firefly seems so...unapocalyptic!

Kara and Derek would totally get along. In a bitter, I'm not going to say anything, let's get drunk and make oblique comments about the horrors we've seen kind of way. I bet it would be Derek's MOST HEALTHY relationship! HEE.

And I'm glad you think I got Cameron's characterisation down. She's...tough to nail, but a lot of fun to write.

Thanks for taking the time to leave feedback.

I got a chance to sit down and read this and I really like it. The characters feel real and the situation could logically play out like this. I like all the strings from both series tying together too.
