Finally caught up on BSG so I could read this!  I like Jim thriving in a post-apocalyptic spaceship, and Pam drawing people's houses was so great.

Author's Response: Wow, thank you so much! Pam and Kara are two of my favorite characters. They're so different, but in some ways they've had similar experiences. ANd I really do think Jim would do well in other circumstances. Thanks again!

Interesting!  Well done--you really got the atmosphere of the fleet down pat. I can totally see Jim rising to the challenge and becoming--to his own amusement--an important guy.  And I loved the bittersweet touch of Pam drawing buildings for people. I thought that was really creative.

Author's Response: Thank you so much! I've never written any BSG before, but I'm glad you thought the feeling was right! The idea that Jim and Pam would thrive in the post-apocalyptic BSG scenario is what prompted this idea. Thank you so much for taking the time to read and comment!

This is a first, right? Anyway, regardless, I'm delighted you wrote a crossover between two of my favourite shows. I too love Kara (she should be with Lee!), but I had never before seen the parallels between her and Pam...great job!

Author's Response: Yeah, I don't expect to get a lot of traffic on this story- it's definitely a rare bird. But I love these two women so much and I think it's for many of the same reasons. They really do have a lot in common (I tend toward Kara/Lee, myself, but right now they're both too screwed up to be good for each other. Like Jim and Pam in S2? Hee.). Thank you so much for reading!

damn - I didn't realise at first that this was multipart - it is beyond awesome!!!!!  Really, I think you really did a great job pairing Pam and Kara.  They could learn quite a bit from each other.  Is it greedy of me that I want to see Jim show up??  ;-)


Author's Response: Thank you! If you're greedy, I'd hate to have to classify the teeming masses clamoring for more of your story. I loved the idea of Pam and Starbuck- so different, but with a lot in common in so many ways. I liked the idea of Pam being the strong one, here- the grown-up, finally, after all she's been through.

Beautiful.  Truly lovely.  And honestly, I could see RDM himself weaving in second chances as a theme in his own storytelling.  It fits so perfectly with what we've seen this last season.

Author's Response: I'm almost more invested in seeing Pam become the person we see here- strong, assured, happy even in dire circumstances. I think she has so much potential. But I love Starbuck and can't wait to see what her special destiny really is!  Thank you, thank you- for your insightful help and for your wonderful comments!
