Fighting outside the ring

Nov 18, 2011 11:07

bsg_aussiegirl wanted as a challenge entry "something imaginative I haven't thought of." So I wrote her this little NC drabble based on the song "Reject your shame" by the UK band SkinjoB.
For ar_drabbles challenge 86, "skinjobs".

Too many broken wings, too many one-eyed kings / Nobody gets to tell me what I do or what I am )

Oh, you know me. The first thing I say to myself when a challenge is posted is "how can I twist this into something Aussie never meant?"

It's a gloomy day out, so Speedy's feeling all rainbows and glitter.

Hee. I love Bill getting to come to her rescue and stick it in Baltar's face all at the same time. And I like the idea of them planning an uprising against Baltar -- it's something I'd have loved to see come to fruition if the cylons hadn't invaded. I wonder how it would've gone. This drabble shows such a sweet moment, but so serious, too.

It's time to choose a side, Laura -- the people or humanity.

I love that, too. That's a decision Laura's constantly making in a way I've noticed people around lj don't always like, but I've never seen it put so succinctly. ;)

(Sorry about the edits.)

"I've brought an apple for the teacher." He reached into his flight suit and handed her a vial of pills.

Oh Bill, you are so suave!

I really like the idea of him coming to visit her when she is sick, but even more I think I like the idea that it is Saul who informs him of her being ill. BFF knows better than to omit that kind of information from the Old Man about his woman.

I like this. Your dialogue is very nice, but I especially him coming to her and convincing her that this time it is time to fight.

You start out so sweet with him bringing pills, but he's bringing mutiny.
