If Kara Thrace had to pick the most important part of herself, physically anyway, the answer might surpise you - her hands.
Who would've thought those 10 simple digits would so effectively carve out her fate?
They seemed to mirror her soul.
Her hands bore often the red stain of blood; sometimes her own, a friends', or best of all, an enemy.
Whether it was the way they simply snaped under her mother's care, or perhaps the way they flexed into a fist when gearing up for a hit.
The tight grasp and release relflex when she played Pyramid, the surprising way they seemed to fit into the bowels of the viper she loved so much.
The intolerable way they burned and the irritatingly itched as the aftermath of a fire from being shot down. And even on more than one occiassion, they way they lightly grazed over a lover's chest.
Although the most viseral memory that Kara had , her hands intertiwned with that of another, was when she guided, - no make that held, the strongest women she had ever met, one President Laura Roslin, and lead her toward perhaps the most important decison that the people had ever made.
Fists, natural talent, gifts, holding Laura
