I've so enjoyed the other parts to this little series, but this really takes the cake! I LOVE how you've captured Saul here!

"If Roslin made Bill happy, he’d tolerate the obstinate woman he knew was trouble, just as Bill tolerated Ellen."

This! This is perfect, they both truly didn't understand the other's choice of partner but they loved them anyway. Bromance, what a beautiful thing!

I love Saul Tigh. I love writing Saul Tigh. And the friendship between Bill & Saul was paramount. I'm thrilled to know you enjoyed this little series.

Love all the things our heroes will and won't admit. Laura won't admit she loves Bill until 2 seconds before she marries him. Saul won't admit that he admires, fears, or understands Laura, that Ellen's gone, that he needs the booze. But he can admit that it takes love to make luck and that Bill and Laura do have that love.

Also -- I see Bill's rubbing off on Saul. Something blue isn't a loan, it's a gift.

For whatever reason, this little fic was so important to me. We all harbor secrets. Truth can be a very scary animal.

Well done. I really enjoyed this.

And Saul Tigh... :-) ♥ He's one of my fav characters, so I'm glad I got to enjoy this little scene with him and Laura.

It's neat how you guys linked the previous drabbles in the summaries. It made it easy for me to go back and read them.

Anyway, thanks for sharing. And well done.

This little fic is very precious to me. Saul Tigh is one of my favorite characters, too. I thought readers might enjoy the complete ride, hence the links to the other fics.

I love sharing my work. Thanks for reading & taking the time to comment.
