When you find a jewellery shop that makes BSG merch - oh my frakkin' gods ❤️
Ohhhhh. I really think that the 'Crossroads' two parter is some of the absolute best of BSG, particularly that heart-breaking moment when Lee asks Laura if she's taking Chamalla again 💔😭 The acting throughout is completely first rate and the writing blows me away 👌
#OTD in 2006:
Saul: “Permission to come aboard, Sir?”
Bill: “Permission granted. You did it. You brought 'em home, Saul.”
Saul: “Not all of them.”

Laura: “Alright. I'm ready to go.”

I love the way Laura walks back onto Colonial One. There’s no discussion, no vote, no nothing but she automatically & immediately goes back to being the President whether the survivors like it or not 😂
Personally I’d burn ALL of the chairs & tables, anything fabric really on Colonial One because after over a year with Baltar living on there, I’m sure a black light would light it up like a Christmas tree from all the bodily fluids!
#OTD in 2006:
Laura: “Tom, you go that way. Head to the shipyard.”
Tom: “You're coming, right?”
Laura: “My ship's up there.”
Tom: “You sure have a sense for the dramatic. Hey, wait, Laura. Wait. Hey, you, you were on Galactica, right?”
Jammer: “Yeah. I didn't do anything!”
Tom: “No, it's okay, it's okay. Keep an eye on her, alright? Don't let her out of your sight. Go! See you up there.”
Laura: “See you up there.”

Frak the Odds - Art Post
Feeling disgruntled and very much in need of a break, Head-Six and Head-Baltar decide to take some time away in a pocket dimension of their making to discuss their charges, the fleet, and the whole frakking conundrum. Maybe this has all happened before, but they'll definitely need a drink or five before it happens again.

Alternate/textless version behind the cut
A year ago I was singing at a gig and spent off stage time chatting to a guitarist - it turned out we both loved sci fi and he uttered the fateful words: 'Have you ever watched Battlestar Galactica?'
Fast forward a year and I am so deeply in love with BSG (and with writing fanfic for it) I cannot imagine how I ever survived without it.
It has woken up my dormant fangirl and re-ignited my love for writing.
Couldn't be more grateful for that chance conversation ❤️
#OTD in 2005:
Sarah: “What is she saying?”
Marshall: “I don’t know. She’s not saying anything. I don’t know what to do.”
Sarah: “I feel like she’s saying...”
Saul: “Alright, the show’s over. Let’s give her some privacy. Everybody out. Let’s go back to the Ward Room & we’ll talk about the business of how we proceed from here.”
Laura: “Thank you all for coming. I have a statement I’d like to make. The attempted military coup against the lawful Government of the Colonies is illegal, ill-advised & clearly doomed to failure. I have not resigned the Presidency & I will fight this action with everything at my command.”
Saul: “She’s crazy! She’s nuts! She thinks she’s a Prophet or some such nonsense. Go ahead & ask her. Ask her, she’ll tell you. Just listen to her. What was it? The Arrow of Apollo will open the Tomb of Artemis, or some nonsense.”
Laura: “Everything I have done is consistent, logical. We have found Kobol. We have found the City of the Gods. And when we retrieve the Arrow, we will open the Tomb of Athena & we will find the road to Earth.”
Sarah: “Madam President, have you read the Scrolls of Pythia?”
Laura: “Carefully & many times & I humbly believe that I am fulfilling the role of the leader.”
Saul: “Okay, enough of this nonsense. Everybody out.”
Marshall: “I don’t think so.”
Tom: “Wait a minute. Wait! Sarah, you represent Gemenon, you know more about the Scrolls & the Scriptures than anybody else here. Why don’t you speak up?”
Sarah: “The Scrolls tell us that a dying leader will lead us to salvation.”
Saul: “She’s not dying, she’s crazy.”
Laura: “I am dying. I have terminal breast cancer. Dr Cottle will verify the diagnosis. I have a few months to live. And in that time, I will lead the people to salvation. It is my sole purpose.”
Sarah: “Praise be to the Gods. Here is our salvation.”
Saul: “Sergeant of the Guard!”
Guard: “Yes, Sir?”
Saul: “Remove these people from the brig & escort them back to their shuttle.”
Laura: “Thank you Corporal.”
Venner: “Thank the Gods.”
