"It's not smart. It's politics."

Title: Nail Biter
Rating: M-ish (nothing explicit but the sexy times are definitely there!)
Word Count: 1585
Characters: Laura Roslin, Kara Thrace
Relationship: Kara/Laura
Summary: Kara hadn't bitten her nails since she met Laura but worry drives her back to old habits. What she calls "punishment" Laura considers celebration.
A/N: So lanalucy challenged me over at bsg_epics to write "Laura/Kara fluff. No angst allowed." I failed. Turns out I need the angst to get to the fluff. But it's there, I promise!

( She could have killed Laura if the whole frakking point wasn’t celebrating her being alive. )

Yesterday's community discussion question over at bsg_epics asked folks to leave characters or pairings for you then to write: "the five most important concepts/ideas/things you always keep in mind when you write them or that you feel you need to see when you read about them. The things you feel are essential to accurately depicting those characters in fic, the way you prefer to see them."

I was prompted with Bill/Saul/Laura, Zarek, Laura, and Billy. I'd already done this question, in this exact same five things format, for Billy so I'll just leave a link to that post here. Below the cuts are some thinky thoughts about B/S/L, Zarek, and Laura.

Answering this week's meta question posted over at bsg_epics:

How does your headcanon for your favourite characters vary from story to story? If you multiship your character in some way, how does your headcanon change between ships?
