Note: This story came about because a new muse (Daeva) came crashing in around 2 a.m. last night to announce I wasn't getting any sleep until I wrote this. Fully formed paragraphs formed in my head until I finally gave in and wrote this out, in bed, half-blind. The things I do for muses...There is a split second

I said it this morning and I say it again here: I love the Hicks perspective of that scene in the movie. All in a split second between observation and action, and so very very much what may have gone through his head. I love it to bits, hon ♥

(Appropriate icon is very appropriate. I should add why in a note to the story.)

One thing the Aliens movie tie-in novel stated that I really agree with is that Hicks is the kind who doesn't say anything unless there is something important to say. Still waters and all that.

One day I will write that long fic we plotted out.
