Happy birthday, Aussie, from the staff of The Caprican Times

Jan 05, 2011 17:04

If my world clock is correct, it's already the 6th where bsg_aussiegirl lives, so I can be the first to give her a birthday gift.

Chapter 1 is here.

( Read more... )

There you go again, Frak, making the rest of us slackers look bad. ;-) But since the Australian is asleep, I will gladly jump the queue and say hot damn, this is good stuff here!

"Stop making everything personal, Bill."

HAHAHAHAHA!!!! :-D *wiping tears away*
Oh, Laura. That'll be the day!

"You now have a partner, Adama." He could feel her breath against his lips. "I want to meet your source. Tonight."

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy! Shenanigans! I can't wait to see how this goes down. Maybe some of that wounded pride of Bill's will have a chance to reassert itself if she gets in over her head, hmmmmm? I have to admit I wouldn't mind seeing Bill get to play the tough guy card for a bit. ;-)

And was Karl Agathon Esq. delivering a little surreptitious anti-Tauron slur there, or did I misread that line?... Ouch!

Oh, Laura. That'll be the day!

Laura and Bill are readers, and the gods know Laura is reading Bill like a cheap paperback novel.

I can't wait to see how this goes down.

Guess that means I'd better start working on Chapter 3?

And was Karl Agathon Esq. delivering a little surreptitious anti-Tauron slur there

No, not at all. It was a blatant anti-Tauron slur. Nothing surreptitious about it aside from not wanting to be caught by the boss.

How have I managed to miss this? Love it. So His Girl Friday. And poor Bill... *off to find part one*

frakcancer January 5 2011, 17:26:16 UTC

How have I managed to miss this?

Probably because you've been too busy tempting Laura with Tom Zarek you naughty girl, you!

Poor Bill? Poor Bill? Poor Laura for having to put up with Bill!

cavgirl January 5 2011, 17:30:54 UTC

Oh, I have plans for Zarek, They're not nice, believe me. Bill should enjoy them enormously.

Nah... I think I'm firmly in the 'poor Bill' camp this time. However, I may change my mind once I've read the beginning of this fic!

frakcancer January 5 2011, 17:37:13 UTC

Oh, I have plans for Zarek, They're not nice

Oh, good. I hate a man who smirks.

I may change my mind once I've read the beginning of this fic!

To get the complete picture, also read the 4 drabbles that are linked at the top of Chapter 1. But the fact that you're all "Poor Bill" means the Bill POV is doing its job, at least.

I love the first two chapters, I cant wait too see where this is going!!

frakcancer January 5 2011, 20:58:31 UTC

You and me, both. (Did I just give too much away?)

akachankami January 6 2011, 01:17:21 UTC

"You don't need to know, Bill. Just make it happen." =D this sounds so Scully XD ahah! sorry, different fandom

i'm so looking forward to know who's the source and what's gonna happen next =D
i just hope we don't have to wait till next birthday for the next chapter =( or, at least, that next birthday to be very soon!

frakcancer January 6 2011, 14:40:58 UTC

i just hope we don't have to wait till next birthday for the next chapter

I'm writing, I'm writing! Hopefully some time next week.

akachankami January 6 2011, 18:20:36 UTC

ahah! good news! =D
i'm sorry i'm so demanding, but as bugs said a not-so-dark-yet fic from you is something extraordinary XD and i like this setting!

frakcancer January 7 2011, 08:16:17 UTC

Demanding readers are a good thing! It reminds writers that someone is indeed interested.

bsg_aussiegirl January 6 2011, 03:55:23 UTC

Your world clock is correct! I'm just a bit late!

LOVE!!!!

Love how she takes over his office. I can't remember Laura doing that in canon. *snort*

I love how she can automatically calculate everything immediately. Ms Smartypants Publisher.

Stop making everything personal, Bill. Oh, that's our Bill. Of course the story is going to be something personal. He can't help himself.

You know how much I love the ending. 'Our story'. *sigh* That parts definitely for me. You know why. You tagged it.

frakcancer January 6 2011, 14:46:09 UTC

You're not late. I just wanted you to have something to wake up to on your birthday morning.

Of course the story is going to be something personal. He can't help himself.

They're two opposite schools of thought. For Laura, the personal is political, for Bill, the political is personal.

You know how much I love the ending. 'Our story'. *sigh* That parts definitely for me. You know why. You tagged it.

And that's why I'm so glad your birthday is after bugs's, so you could get the beginnings of the partnership for your chapter.

And now an additional gift -- you get to nag me about when the next chapter will get posted because I don't have the rest of the story written!

bsg_aussiegirl January 6 2011, 22:26:51 UTC

I get to nag! The birthday prezzies just go on and on and on.

frakcancer January 7 2011, 07:44:13 UTC

I thought you'd like the opportunity to nag! And it gets even better, since next week is the last week of the semester, so I won't have boring classes in which to write chapters.
