Random tidbit

I'm endlessly amused that so far not one person at Mark Watches has mentioned "WE'RE GOING THE WRONG WAY!!" which is honestly one of the things I remember the most about those first two eps of S4. Because that was a THING. Wasn't it? It was SO MUCH A THING at the time. lol

But it does raise a small point I thought about --

So let's think about this for a moment. Kara was, obviously, right; they were going the wrong way when the Fleet continued on in a straight line from the Nebula. However, this raises the point -- How did the Thirteenth Tribe find Earth 1.0? They were, so far as we know, also going on a straight line toward the nebula (which was a nova at the time). Which means they were ALSO going the wrong way eventually once they passed the nebula.

So they also must've had a guide. I'm sure someone else thought about that, but I don't think I ever have, so there you go. :)

Things I think about while writing NaNo. yes. Speaking of NaNo, I definitely will need a beta. I mean, I will anyway, obv, but I have no idea if Julie is coming off as too much of a bitch right out of the gate. But it doesn't matter right now. ONWARD!

I try not to think about BSG too much. :)

I am weirdly terrified about how Mark will react to learning that God is a) real and b) behind everything. Hopefully the Agathon Happy Ending will get him through...

"We're going the wrong way" was definitely a THING! Although I think a big part of that was the fact it was in a lot of the promos before the season started.

Oooh interesting thought that the Five had a guide too, I actually hadn't thought of that before.

I have no idea what Mark Watches is but I love the WE'RE GOING THE WRONG WAY! scene and you bring up a good question. My first thought would be the (assumed) angels Sam mentions in No Exit. I don't know but there should more fic exploring that.

IT WAS TOTALLY A THING. I recall mocking it endlessly. And wincing.

And, well, yes. I also kinda assumed that they just did a lot of wandering before Sam ended up in the gutter and experimented on WAIT. Didn't the Final Five comic cover 'led to paradise' ground? hrm. I don't remember anymore.

Are we sure the Thirteenth Tribe went towards the nebula? Or was that an assumption because the Colonials didn't know what the real Eye of Jupiter was? If they did, I guess they had another sign post after that.

Okay, seriously, Mark Watches BSG is GIVING ME HEART PALPITATIONS.

For example: I think Tyrol overreacts, because no one, not even Gaius Baltar, deserves to be choked.

I WONDER IF HE WILL CHANGE HIS MIND LATER. Given what he's said about other characters. A lot. In CAPs.

Also, I'm afraid what he's going to do when he finds out that the whole show was God's Plan. I liked it. Quite a bit, actually. But I can see Mark really hating it.
