Title: Free
Rating: PG-13
Fandom: Battlestar Galactica
Summary: Baltar seeks any means necessary to escape his demon. Spoilers through 'Lay Down Your Burdens.'
Author's Note: Another weird one. I might end up redoing this at some point, but here it is as it stands now. As much as I like writing Baltar, getting into his head turned out to actually be really hard for POV purposes. Especially since it revolves around justifying a decision of his that I don't really think makes much internal sense (and the potential plot thread is abandoned five episodes later thank you third season). Also, he is, by nature, an unreliable narrator, especially about himself, so probably at least half of this should be taken with a substantial grain of salt (even when he's panicking and a bit self-destructive and doing something he knows damn well is incredibly stupid, he can't resist bragging -_-;; ). So...yeah. Justification! Difficult headspace! Weirdness!
( I am not like ordinary men. )
