Jigsaw by pirateygoodness, (R)
Hi all! I'm ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
anjali_organna and I'll be your September BSG driver. I'll read anything as long as it's well written, which is why I chose to lead off with the following recommendation:
Title: Jigsaw (when the pieces come together, you'll see it)
Fandom: BATTLESTAR GALACTICA (2003)
Pairing: Boomer/Racetrack
Length: 1507 words
Author on LJ:pirateygoodness
Author Website: BSG fic tag on her LJ
Why this must be read:
As I said above, I'll read anything if it's done well. This fic is done well. The author has a good ear for rhythm and uses language, syntax and spacing effectively in a way that makes the actual words on the page add a visual punch and become part of the story that she is trying to tell.
It's Boomer, confused and terrified and struggling to understand what is happening to her. It's Boomer/Racetrack, a pairing that never would have occured to me and yetpirateygoodness makes it seem completely logical. It's a sex scene that actually evokes the thought process during sex in a realistic fashion.
Excerpt:
(Or maybe she's hoping this is what going crazy feels like, because there's another option – the option written on the mirror in her locker, the one that leaves her with hours, days missing that she just can't –
- if Boomer gets to choose, she figures she'd rather go crazy. That's all.)
