No Roslin/Adama? Or have I just not seen enough BSG to get how totally not there that is?
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
Rheanna has some Roslin/Adama in her Five Things story, I know. (I don't read much BSG; I'd think there'd be some more out there.)

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Rheanna put in a dash of Roslin/Adama in her fabulous Five Deaths (Laura Roslin), and I liked that pairing a lot in that story. I suppose Adama-centric fic in which he's involved in a relationship are few and far between, because he's not what you'd call pretty. If he had a sort of face that'd appeal to collective fannish aesthetics, there would have been loads of fic--he's a wonderful character. And Adama/Tigh certainly has no lack of subtexts.
HA! X-posty Rheanna rec!

No, but he is what I'd call gorgeous. It's the craggy, world-weary, "my god, that man needs a good hug" look. But I'm odd like that.
I could buy Sharon/Adama fic, pre-shooting.

I've taken a look at the crack van recs for Starsky and Hutch...is there any writers I should focus on?

I'm with you, connie. I wouldn't call Roslin pretty either, but I think they're both charismatic and compelling in their own ways. Which is to say, I'd totally do Adama.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think Roslin is pretty, but mostly I'm now wondering about Six/Six, or even SixSixSix.
Why the hell not? They're very pretty.

If I only had a brain...
So does Lee not count as an Adama? Because I keep reading and getting all confuzzled.

People don't like Tricia Helfer? Or is this because they don't like the character? Because yes, I'm really impressed by her. The only other thing I've seen her in was that Farrah Fawcett thing, and she didn't wow me there.
Are there BSG recs at BSO, Vonnie?

I'm not sure if the complaints were the playing or the writing, but there we're Six is unsexy vibes I just didn't get.
