One thing jumped out at me (and it has squat to do with K/L, so feel free to ignore me) was, Human brains need to crunch numbers, organize data, and come up with solutions to complex problems.

AKA "Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind."

Now I'm wondering if BSG would be better or worse if everyone was on spice.

[wicked_sassy]

I'm sorry, I don't understand--if everyone was on spice? What do you mean?

[n_e_star]

Sorry, fangirl brain took over.

Dune by Frank Herbert

The epic story of a civilization who had built robot AI that took over. After a period of slavery, the humans rise up and over throw the robots. The human mind is then used to do everything.

Spice is a drug that speeds up the mind, lengthens life and is generally the most awesomest thing in the world.

spice fucks with the brain...nobody should be on it!!!

But I bet that a navigator would have found Earth way faster ;) And then there would have been no need for Kara to kill her self!

interesting. at least they would not have the water problem and all. hmmm... a cross between Dune and BSG would be epic.

Kara riding a sand worm...

And she could still have the whole "mother training her for a special destiny thing" happening and she could fall in love with the clan leader's son with the super blue eyes and...

Holy shit, Kara is the Muad'Dib!

of course she is. and... seriously, I have to stop imagining this because it's too good.

It's one of those things were you say, "Why didn't I see this before?"

Crack Fic has eaten my brain

[n_e_star]

The Emperor taught us to play chess at a young age, saying it gave us the skills needed to survive a life of political intrigue - logic, cunning, the ability to sacrifice lesser pieces.

At one of our weekly matches when I was 18 I told him that politics was more like a game of pyramid - even the players that are working for the same goal will still try to take the glory for themselves and don't mind spilling blood to do so.

My father was never any good at contact sports.

I have no words. I'm speechless and in awe.

Duke Leoben Atreides and Lady Socrata, who prepares her daughter for her destiny by inflicting great pain.

Lee'ama, the blue eyed desert maiden warrior who she loves.

Prince Samuel, the man she marries for political reasons, then stashes on the other side of the palace and never talks to.

Really, it writes its self.

OMG. I love Dune. I could totally see this. Someone should definitely write it. LOL

Re: Crack Fic has eaten my brain
