Flying Solo by Elke Tanzer (NC-17)

Hi, my name is Cat, I'll be reccing BSG this month. You may have seen me previously at the helm of the Hornblower or PoTC crack-ships.

This month I plan to rec a broad variety of stories, with a particular emphasis on quality gen and character-focused stories, something this fandom has a wealth of. But first, I'm going to start off with some shameless, unapologetic smut.

Fandom: BATTLESTAR GALACTICA 2003
Pairing: references to Kara/Zac and Kara/Lee
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] elke_tanzer
Author Website: http://elke.slashcity.org/
Why this must be read:

I was utterly stunned to discover that this fic had not been recced previously. Flying Solo is one of the first fics I read in this fandom and still one of the hottest things I've read in any fandom. We're talking brain-melting, lose the power of speech hot here.

This is Kara Thrace in all her glory; a strong, confident and powerful woman, comfortable in her own skin and unashamed of her sexuality. [livejournal.com profile] elke_tanzer seamlessly blends Kara's memories and her fantasies into a narrative that is as strong and as sexy as Kara herself.

That sounds like an awesome rec! But it doesn't seem to include a link to the story itself-- any chance you can add it?

Thanks!

I think there's an extra " in the link above.

One of http://elke.slashcity.org/bsg-flyingsolo.html
or http://www.yuletidetreasure.org/archive/5/flyingsolo.html
or http://www.livejournal.com/community/bsg2003fics/10362.html
should all work.
