The Shiny Happy Comment Ficathon!

[dollsome]

Winter is coming; daylight is fleeting; for the students among us, end-of-semester hell is just about to rear its ugly head. What better way to combat such woes than with a super-cheerful comment ficathon?

Ergo:





The Rules Are Thus:

1. Cheerful prompts! I feel like there's not much regulation here in terms of pairings: almost every ship or pair of characters is capable of a fluffy/happy/silly moment, and if they're not in canon, then why can't they be in fic? However, any prompt involving, say, lyrics from Eminem and Rihanna's "Love The Way You Lie" is probably not appropriate in terms of tone. Unless it's the "guess that's why they call it WINDOW PANE" line, which will never stop being hilarious.

2. Prompt format should go thus:

Fandom -- Pairing or characters -- prompt

3. For the fic you've written, please put the following in your comment's subject line: 'Fandom -- pairing -- title.'

4. Be nice!

5. Spread the fun, if you are so inclined!

6. Go forth and have a merry happy good time. :)

Battlestar Galactica -- Adama/Roslin -- "And the blue of your joyful eyes / Against the mass of night/ Finding its flame in my eyes"

[pocochina.livejournal.com]

so I kind of have a thing, but I'm actually only caught up to S3, so it might not be entirely canon-compliant. should resist but MY BBs. y/n? (if not, totally cool, dw)

[galfridian.livejournal.com]

YYY. Do it! :)

Battlestar Galactica -- Adama/Roslin -- carpe astra

[pocochina.livejournal.com]

When they talk he feels grounded in a way that he hasn’t since the attack. Solid. Sure. They have plenty to talk about; they are two intelligent, well-informed adults who happen to share the unique burden of the guardianship of humanity. After they discuss the welfare of the fleet, she memorializes art that’s become dust, or he learns the hard way that she plays a mean hand of cards, which in retrospect probably shouldn’t have surprised him.

But tonight as they curl onto his couch with their third whiskies, he talks about his sons when they were small. Laura listens intently and doesn’t ask too many questions about Zach and laughs in all the right places when he tells her about the time he’d found Lee stuck in a tree with a pillowcase around his neck, clinging desperately to the neighbors’ cat and insisting that Captain Caprica would have come up to save it too.

“What a wonderful story. The little ones are always my favorites, but I have to say I wish I’d had a few more like him. I’d certainly have fewer wrinkles.”

He tries to sound like a gentleman, one who doesn’t picture the lines that pull at her eyebrows when she’s trying to hide her frustrations every time he blinks. “I think you have exactly enough wrinkles.” Dammit, he thinks, but she smiles graciously. “Besides, he was always a pain in the ass at naptime.”

“A stubborn little tough guy, hm?”

“I guess he comes by that honestly.” He isn’t teased too often these days, and it throws him a little off-balance. He’s forgotten that he took to the skies because he was always a little awkward on the ground. He’d rather pull his world along on his own shoulders than trip over the restraints tethering him to nature. But Laura anchors him in the cool dark country of his quarters and he doesn’t mind resting his wings.

“So what happened to the cat?”

“Frakkin’ animal.” She snorts into her scotch. “Neighbors could never control it. Nice folks, though.” He takes a sip and tells himself he isn’t getting maudlin over corpses whose last name he can’t even remember. “It was good to have neighbors. There were a few military families on that street. People worked odd hours, so there was always a light on. Like you never had to be alone.”

“Well, now you’re just being ridiculous, Bill.”

He takes a moment to wonder at her unusual abandonment of diplomacy, and why she doesn’t notice that the hand she lays on his cheek is like silk on sandpaper.

“Nobody has to be alone.”

He looks at her and she gives the smallest of nods, and Bill Adama falls into the stars.

This is just lovely! That last line in particular - stunning, gorgeous.

Lee stuck in a tree with a pillowcase around his neck, clinging desperately to the neighbors’ cat and insisting that Captain Caprica would have come up to save it too.

SO PRESH AND RIDIC. (Thus perfectly IC.)

thank you ♥

Bill is a huge drama queen. Lee is a huge dork. That is my Unified Theory of Adama right there.

Oh, God, just beautiful. ♥ You've captured the tone of this relationship to perfection.
