Oh, dearest, what a lovely comment. I feel completely taken aback and don't know what to say. Firstly, all of my fic is public, and I post it to various communities so folks like you whom I don't know can find it! So do not worry about being creepy *at all*. You're not creepy. You're magnificent! The good thing about LJ (as opposed to fanfiction.net), is that fic sharing / commenting / responding / reccing becomes a much more communal endeavor. I love hearing your feedback - because what the hell am I writing for if not to have people like you read and enjoy it?

This was my first AU fic, and I'm not sure whether or not it will be my last; but there is something compelling about putting our pilots in a 'verse where real world politics like class and race become more salient. I don't know if you watched Caprica at all, but on that, Tauron clearly equals Italian (there's a Little Tauron and everything.), which I find a little bit less realistic for a modern day AU, especially since Edward James Olmos identifies as being of Mexican descent.

Small town Texas is quite a place culturally, and seeing how pilots would get along there was a great writing challenge.

And, oh! Isn't Lee the awkwardest? Poor little boo. In other fics, I've let him have much more game, but it felt right in this fic for him to be less adept in romance department. So glad that you enjoyed the Karl & Kara and little Kacey <3 <3 Those were my favourite parts to write.

Also - re: sex. I'm so glad you enjoyed reading it! I must admit I do have a bit of fun with teh smut. What is fic for if not for hot sexing? And oral sex totally counts as sex!

Other commenters have expressed interest in seeing more from this 'verse, so it may happen! Who knows? I have so many works-in-progress, though...Anyway, never hesitate to leave long, thoughtful, gushing comments, my dear. If you're newish to the LJ side of fic, let me know if you'd like any recommendations. There are a lot of truly talented writers.

And yes!!! Join the Dark Side that is Livejournal! It's excellent and fun! Check out [livejournal.com profile] no_takebacks, which is the LJ comm focused on pilots-Kara/Lee, and [livejournal.com profile] bsg_epics, which is the general BSG comm with daily postings throughout the week! We're all friendly and love new people!

Anyway. Long comment is long. Just - thank you so, so much.
