No need for me to be gentle. That was great. :) Loved the pacing, the voice, and the sense of anticipation you built. You should definitely continue w/ writing, it agrees w/ you.

Thank you. I was a bit nervous about this all day. :) I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Nicely done. The pacing here is fabulous and you've really got the feel of Kara down.

I'm looking forward to seeing more from you because this is fabulous.

[schwester655]

Thank you.

Who knows if anything else will come out, though!

[ship_recs]

That was lovely.

[schwester655]

Thanks!

(And you rec'd me? eep! wow.)

I really liked this. You captured Kara so well.

Starbuck hates to wait, but Kara thinks that maybe Lee is worth it.

Because regardless of what they’ve been through, regardless of their history, their collective baggage, she knows that they are fracking inevitable, feels the spark so strongly that she’s willing to wait.

Beautiful.

Yay! That was the first bit it wrote. It's kind of my favorite too.

Thank you!

And by "it" I mean the thing that took over my brain...

(How do you edit these replies, anyway? grrr.)

That was super. I love the pacing, the repetition. I love how you juxtapose her many annoyances against her constants.

Thanks!
