Why this must be read:

The Countdown Clock is an older fic, originally posted November 8, 2005. But with the 4th being the last season of Battlestar Galactica, I thought it appropriate to go back to the beginning, to the heady days of season 1 and the very first episode of this little show, an episode that many of us still consider to be the best of the show. The Countdown Clock is set during the legendary "33" and it brings front and center the exhaustion and the desperation everyone in the Colonial Fleet felt at the beginning of their journey.

Brief and poignant and with each snippet absolutely in character for those people at that time, I give you:

The Countdown Clock

Enjoy! :)
