Why this must be read:
This is one of my favorite stories, both for its sympathetic and spot-on portrayal of Dee (and Kara), but also for the lovely and unexpected connection between the two. It was written prior to the start of season four, so much of its optimism for both characters is sadly AU, but a pleasure to read nonetheless. Kara is recently back from the dead, and the Admiral orders Dee to help her draw a map back to Earth. Dee, pragmatic and loyal as always, reluctantly complies.
Dee wished that better end for Kara, even if she wouldn't believe it from her. The moment Kara had returned with her dramatic statement about taking them to Earth Dee had known. Kara was touched by the sun. It explained so much: how no one could see anything or anyone beyond her, how she spiraled into her own destructive patterns. Kara's return was when Dee finally gave up being jealous of what Kara had, what Dee had wanted... because life had taught her that those who were touched by the sun so often burned away.
