Why this must be read: In my opinion, some of the best crack!fic out there is fic that not only plays around with the hiding-in-plain sight themes of the show, but also manages to play cleverly with the very idea of fic, fic writing and fannishness.
This gem from 2006 does all this, with a hilarious and affectionate sendup of Adama/Roslin shipping, long before it was all the rage. In this fic, it turns out practically everyone on Galactica is shipping A/R, especially after a continuing porny series of anonymously-written fics about them starts appearing everywhere. Everyone around them is secretly discussing the fics - from CIC personnel, to the deck crew, to people in Colonial One. When Roslin discovers a copy of an installment distractedly left behind by one of her aides, she and Bill begin secretly reading too, and eventually they both discover that they are shipping themselves.
This fic got me laughing out loud in practically every scene, especially towards the end, when Laura and Bill decide that revenge is a dish best served with hot innuendoes in the CIC, in front of their sexually frustrated Fleet kids.
“You know, I don’t know how you guys can read that junk,” Lowjack said shaking his head. “They’re … old.”
He was hit in the face with a pair of dirty skivvies.
“It’s the president and the old man,” HotDog told him. “She’s just plain gorgeous and he’s THE MAN. I’ll bet he really could give it to her good like that.”
“Besides, who the frak else are we gonna speculate about?” Kat asked settling into her rack. “Starbuck and Apollo?”
“Way too obvious,” Racetrack put in.
“Hell yeah.”
Lowjack just rolled his eyes. “Whatever.”

And yes, I think Hot Dog is the voice of the people on this one. Definitely gorgeous.
