Anna Sweet Angel NC-17 A/S  
Anna Mapping the Genome NC17 A/S Notes: Well, there’s a bit of m/m sex in it, here and there. Ask Starbuck, and he’ll tell you that there isn’t anywhere near enough. I explained to him that for the purposes of the dramatic narrative - I know: I flatter myself. But if I don’t, no one else will - then some scenes have to take place outside the bedroom. He’s not buying that one. Instead, he seems to be trapping Apollo in an awful lot of broom cupboards to make up for the lack. Apollo, btw, is not complaining. He's noticed, but he isn't complaining.
PAIRING : Apollo/Starbuck (established, but not yet public. Rock solid and loving and no, the angst does not come from any conflicts here)
TIMELINE:About 13-14 months after the Destruction of the Colonies
SYNOPSIS: Secrets and lies and chromosomes, and a lot of fun making up Aegyptan names.
DISCLAIMER: Universal owns ‘em.I’ve just borrowed them. I suppose that one day I’ll have to give them back. Not yet, though. I haven’t finished playing.
OTHER WARNINGS:
  • spelling and language is British English, but then, that’s what I am.
  • all non-canon characters are my own.
  • I’ve done my best on the genetics, but it’s been a long time since A-level biology.If I’ve boobed, let me off with a warning and a small fine.
  • the Greek hero "Aegyptus", from whom my Aegyptans at least derive their name, is pronounced with a hard "g", I think. He had 50 sons, btw, all but one murdered by their wives (fifty sisters and the boys’ cousins) in one very fell swoop on their joint wedding night. The one girl who decided to keep the boy was Hypermestra, who, to keep up the connexion, gives her name to a ship of the Fleet
  • we all know about the crappy BSG time units and that IFB is Intra-Fleet Broadcasting, now don't we?
  • Fleet, with a capital F refers to the military organisation, a combination of our navy and airforce, as opposed to the Infantry; fleet, no capital, is the refugee flotilla that the Galactica is leading.
  • and last, but not least, Heidi made me watch Sssss when we visited her in Toronto, and there was this amazing line that Dirk says that Starbuck loved so much that he just had to quote it. Whoever spots it gets the DB Appreciation of Great Dialogue Award "00". A purely honorary prize, but merited.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS : Val, for doing the counting of the parts. And my own Heidi, who's suffered through the long gestation of this almost as much as I have. Well, time for you to suffer now
Oh - and this one's MEGA long. Mega.

Heidi M A Prayer Answered G A/S Author's Note: This is a sequel to A Warrior's Sorrow, and AWS must be read before this one! I'm not trying to be bossy - just trust me. You won't really know what's going on, otherwise. Enjoy.
