"I need some fine wine and you, you need to be nicer"

Yesterday, the following conversation took place just at the end of a (really rather half-hearted) swimming session:

MOTHER: ....So, what are you doing at school tomorrow?
ME: Not that much. Classics. Maths. English. Something else while other people do sport.
MOTHER: Oh.
ME: Why is it that you ask?
MOTHER:  I was thinking maybe you could not go to school and go shopping with me in York instead?
ME: ....Or I could do that.

See, she had some stuff to return to some place in York and then wanted to ponce around the shops a bit...and so I went with her, and today was such a lovely day.

And I bought things! I now own Life On Mars Series 1 (YES! MINE FOREVER!). Also, I now own a very lovely dress (this one, in fact) and I have my friend's birthday presents all sorted out and we had a hot chocolate and some Marks and Spencers food for lunch, and I'm having Marks and Spencers chicken enchiladas for dinner and life is good right now.

All I have to do this weekend is learn lines 129-172 of Book 4 of The Aeneid, and that's fun anyway. Ahh, weekends.

Anyone up for the one-sentence fic game again? (I'm going to post a fic in a minute. Apologies in advance for the spam.)

Give me a character (or multiple characters, or a pairing, or a theory, or a ridiculous AU, or anything you like, really) from a fandom (er, preferably one that I'm familiar with. If you don't know whether I know a fandom or not, feel free to ask. Crossovers are absolutely fine), and a theme to go with it (by 'a theme' I mean anything that will give me some idea of where I'm going - be as vague or as specific as you want to be), and I'll write you a one-sentence fic. You may make as many requests as you like.

Fic: BSG, Laura/Kara, R - A Little Rhyme and a Reason Forgotten

I feel like I've not written BSG fic in far too long. Hence, this.

Title: A Little Rhyme and a Reason Forgotten
Rating: R
Fandom: Battlestar Galactica
Pairing: Laura/Kara
Disclaimer: These characters aren't mine, so woe. Please no sue.
Summary: Girl-sexings and Kara doesn't question anything too much.
A/N: This is set post Flight of the Phoenix, but there are no spoilers. It just helps to know when it's set. I don't know if Laura is Laura-ish enough, but that's something I always worry about. The image just popped into my head...and I wanted to write it, despite the fact that I feel it's very like every other Laura/Kara I've ever written! Mainly girl-sexings. Some pondering. 393 words.
