Why this must be read: On pre-apocalyptic Caprica, Caroline Adama meets Kara Thrace. Zak is there too, and even Lee, but this story focuses on the relationship between these two women; they're not exactly friends, and not exactly mother/daughter, but maybe somewhere in between. It's a lovely portrait of both characters, and Caroline (the pre-Day in the Life Caroline) is drawn with an exquisite hand.

Excerpt:
"Caroline," Kara says, testing the word out. She bites her lip. "About the other day, I just wanted you to know - I didn't want you to think that I'm like that normally. Well, maybe I am, but the thing is, what I feel for Zak is, um..."

"You don't have to explain," Caroline says gently. "I can tell you love each other."

"You can?" Kara asks, hesitant, unsure, and Caroline can't help herself. She takes Kara's hands in hers over the table between them.

"I can," she says.
