Have you ever wondered what would change if Lee had done this or Kara had done that? That's what we are going to do today: flip canon on its head ( Read more... )

Discussion/Fic Recs kl_shipper1 February 21 2012, 15:11:38 UTC

This is the thread you're looking for if you want to discuss this idea or have fics recs to contribute.

Shameless self-rec since it covers two of these scenarios. Always trying to convince people to read my long fix since its such a huge undertaking at 190k words. But! It does start off right away with Kara as commander of

We used to wait.

Pegasus and lee down on NC which changes a lot of things for both of them.

Annnnnd apologies for two comments I am on the mobile version, hit a wrong button and can't figure out how to edit my comment.

Prompting & Fic kl_shipper1 February 21 2012, 15:13:07 UTC

This is the thread for those who want to write some fic with these scenario or want to inspire others to write some comment!fic.

It's not a total flip, but I would love to see a fic where Lee wakes up first and brakes up with Dee on Founders Day.

Re: Prompting & Fic kdbleu February 21 2012, 19:03:14 UTC

I particularly love the twist within the reversal in this. Lee waking early but staying Lee and breaking up with Dee totally forces Kara's hand. Interesting.

Re: Prompting & Fic marce_w February 21 2012, 19:06:13 UTC

there is at least one but damn if i could find it, I know that I've read it recently but without a bookmark is a needle in a haystack

I have been looking for a fic where Lee wakes up before Kara and he is the one that fraks up by not choosing Kara.
This seems like such an interesting switch that hasn't been explored in fanfics.
Does this type of fic exist?

kl_shipper1 February 21 2012, 22:04:33 UTC

I've never seen one with that set up, but it would be interesting (and, imo, certainly plausible). Maybe you should write it? This DPP is definitely welcome to some comment!fic!

duchessduchie February 21 2012, 22:26:35 UTC

Umm . . . I'm not that brave/fast enough writer to do a comment!fic! Thanks for answering my question.

Hee! No worries-- I'm not either! But I would like to see that fic as much as you would.

I think what is so interesting about this idea of Lee running away from Kara in the morning is that it is plausible because the night before he was drunk, his inability to admit weakness with some exceptions, and he saw the fear in her face and he assumes she won't go through with their plan. Lee like Kara protects himself from potential emotional hurt.

If Lee did leave in the morning what would Kara do? Would she stay with Sam or break up with him? Would she stay with the fleet or go live on NC? Would Kara pout like Lee in Cannon or would she stay his friend?

How would Lee handle leaving Kara? Would he pull an extreme like Kara did in cannon and marry Dee or what? Would Lee still become bitter and fat!lee?

More importantly how could Lee and Kara get back together? Would Kara be transferred to Lee's ship? Would Adama have a heart attack when NC was attacked and Kara have to become commander and then the two have to work together? Who would make the first move Kara or Lee?
