Intra by Kate Andrews (NC-17)
Fandom: BATTLESTAR GALACTICA 2003
Pairing: Kara Thrace/Lee Adama
Author on lj:

Author Website: Fictabulous
Why this must be read:
Formatted as a series of fragments and scenes, Intra is a story told in borrowed time. Set entirely during the episode "33" it focuses not on the fights or the briefings or the jumps, but on those few precious minutes sandwiched in-between, when the exhausted pilots are finally able to pause and breathe and eat or shower or even snatch a few precious minutes of sleep or a desperate hand-job in the shower. Although her focus is on Lee and Kara's relationship -- past and present -- Kate Andrews also turns her keen eye on some of the other pilots and deck crew. Kate has a talent for spare, sharply-drawn characterizations, even those characters who only get one or two lines feel fully realized. But her Lee and Kara are the heart of this story, she captures everything that makes them captivating without shying away from either's more infuriating traits all while deftly weaving a picture of their past, their present and even their tenuous future.
