Thanks also to sabaceanbabe for the fantastic vid (please leave a comment here!), and to beccatoria, whose wonderful Cavil/Ellen vid introduced me to the song which inspired the title. Special thanks to chosenfire28 for running the BSG Big Bang, without which...
Summary: John had no one: no family, no friends, and no one to turn to. He clung to the priest because he had nowhere else to go, but as their strange friendship grew, so did his hatred for the rest of humanity... until one lost little boy changed the fate of two civilizations.

"Are you a Cylon?" John asked.

Cavil grew very still, and stayed that way for a long time. He'd stopped breathing again. Then, at last, he spoke. "Yes. I'm a Cylon. My real name is Number One."

"Are you going to kill everybody?" John asked, in a small voice.

"Yes," Number One said. "Everyone but you," he added, with the air of someone who had only just decided. There was a long silence afterward.

"Can I help?"
