Oh how interesting...

[sheepfairy]

Thank you! I was really trying to fit in a lot about the cylon philosophy, and I'm glad it didn't come off as boring.

And she knows that Sharon isn’t like the others - she doesn’t accept the rationalizations, either, and Six would be willing to bet that she doesn’t like to leave the apartment because seeing other copies of herself is to much cognitive dissonance to handle. - oh, yeah, no one bought into being human like poor, screamingly freaked-out Sharon. Nicely conveyed!

“You aren’t broken. Neither of us is broken. Loving something other than God does not make us broken.” Amen. I really enjoyed this piece; lots of plausible insights into Cap & Sharon's cult of personality revolution. Thank you very much!

[sheepfairy]

Your welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed it! And I'm glad the stuff about the cylon way of thinking was plausible to other people.

[sheepfairy]

Eek! You're welcome. Stupid uneditable comments..

What a really compelling interaction between these characters!

Take, for example, Number Three, who wears a scarf and a jacket even in the middle the Caprican summer. It’s not as bad as the Sixes who will wear cocktail dresses in the freezing rain, but it’s still jarring

I loved this detail.

Great piece.

[sheepfairy]

Thank you! I'm glad you liked the bit about the cylons seeming a little off.

Ooh. Interesting. Very, very interesting.

I love the way everyone has come up with a slightly different take on cylons.

[sheepfairy]

Thank you! And yeah, I've found the responses to this challenge really interesting too, for the same reason.

i really, really enjoyed this. all the theorizing that goes on about the cylons takes on a fascinating slant when conducted through the cylons, in fic. i'm also writing (albeit slowly and late!) a caprica!6/galactica!boomer fic, and i think i've taken a different tack with how i understand them... which makes yours all the more compelling.

and the thing about the weird clothes IS SO TRUE. who the hell designed doral's suit, and how can i SHOOT THEM DEAD?

[sheepfairy]

Thank you! And yes, I love writing from the pov of the cylons, because there are so many different things you can do with them.

And I think the only explanation for some of the clothes on this show is that one of the wardrobe people is on some serious drugs.
