No Regrets by frolicndetour (PG)
Fandom: BATTLESTAR GALACTICA (NEW)
Characters: Kara & various (Dee, Helo et al.)
Length: one-shot

Why this must be read:
For such a compelling and widely popular character as Kara Thrace, there are surprisingly few gen fics featuring Starbuck. However, this vignette certainly does its bit to make up for this sad lack. Starting with an explanation for the street-urchin pixie-cut hair-do Katee Sackhoff was sporting in the mini-series, the story takes a fun prompt and turns it into a poignant contrast between the hopeful, forward-looking crew of Galactica at the very beginning of the show and the hunted remnants of humanity for whom the ship is both a refuge and a prison. And yet, the bonds of friendship are hinted at in every situation -- not only in Helo's well-established easy-going BFF relationship with Kara, but also in the glimpse of relaxed cameraderie between Kara and Dee, two women which were mostly shown as romantic rivals in canon. Lovely in every way!
