Why this must be read: This is probably one of the best crossovers I've read, let alone one that crosses over BSG. Set during the early portion of season two of BSG, Apollo and the President hide away on Serenity, with our favorite Firefly crew as they try to maintain that they belong in this universe. The voices for the characters from both shows are spot on and this crossover story actually reads like one that *could* happen.



"How do you feel?"

Lee grimaced. Idiot doctors. "It hurts."

"Bullet wounds generally do, particularly when we're low on painkillers. You're going to be fine; the bullet went through muscle in your abdomen and kept going. All I needed to do was stitch you up again." Another sip of water and Lee was willing to consider the possibility that the man wasn't lying to him. "I'm Dr. Tam, by the way. Would you like me to help you sit up?" Lee nodded, and the doctor raised the bed.

Dr. Tam was still getting him to wiggle his fingers and toes when he looked up and saw the president standing in the doorway, with the man he remembered as the ship's captain just behind her. "Doctor," she began, "how is Captain Apollo?" Lee watched her interact with the two strangers; the doctor, he thought, was willing to let the president charm him, but the captain seemed a bit less enthusiastic. Even so, when Laura asked for a moment alone with him, both men withdrew.




So go read and, if you like it, let the author know: Resting Place
