Why this must be read:

This short fic packs a punch.  Set after Sacrifices, it closes one of the more egregious holes in canon.  Billy Keikeya's two strongest relationships were with Laura Roslin and Anastasia Dualla.  So why did the two have almost no scenes together, particularly after he died?  This story explores what might have happened had they done so.  It's not just about Billy dying.  It's about Dee, and why she makes the choices she does (romantic and political) and the way Laura sees the women of the Fleet.  And it's about grief.  (And the last line, considering what Dee eventually does, will take your breath away.)  Well-written, it deserves to be read more.  Go, read and review.
