With 4.11 airing, the final Battlestar Galactica hiatus has come to a close. So siljamus and I felt the time was right to formally close the bsg_hiatusthon community. We would like to thank everyone who participated in the challenges here--we hope that you found this space a comfort in the long wait beteen episodes.
The community will remain accessible so that people can enjoy all the fic that came into being here. A reminder, that you can find the masterlists for challenges here: - Challenge 1 - Challenge 2 or search the tags to find fic.
Title: Circuit (Part 5 of 5) Author: Daybreak Characters: Trey, Freya/Myla, Trey’s parents, Yuri. Sort of original characters but not, really. Beta: Many thanks to rose_griffes and millari. Thank you. Spoilers: None. This is AU. Word Count: For Part 5: 3660. All five parts: 14,292 words. Summary:All of this has happened before and all of this will happen again. A set of five only very slightly related glimpses into different points in time. Each can stand alone or be read as a whole. Author's Note 1: This was and is a Christmas and birthday present for bop_radar. My idea here: Kara and Lee will be together and have been together forever. It's meant to be, no matter what happens on the show. This story takes place in many alternate universes. I have taken certain liberties with the show's mythology. Please read the notes before each chapter, it will help you. :-) And enjoy! Author's Note 2: Special note to amathela. Circuit was inspired by many things, but first the prompt: Athena, mythology for the bsg_hiatusthon's first challenge. I am sure this is not at all what the prompter intended but that prompt started this epic tale. Thank you!
This community was first set up as a forum for running challenges during the hiatus between Season 3 and Season 4. We're already well into yet another BSG hiatus, waiting for the second half of Season 4, so we'd like to open an invitation to anyone out there interested in more challenges to keep up fannish interest during the hiatus.
Please check out the general guidelines before posting, but feel free to use this as a forum for ficathons, icon challenges, caption contests or anything else you can think of.
Title: Circumstance (The Remus Remix) Author: elly427 Pairing: Zak/Kara, Kara/Lee Original Story: Decline and Fall by elzed Rating: M Summary: It's fine, he wants to say, but it's not, it's so not. He loves her enough for it not to be fine anymore. A/N: Better late than never? My apologies to elzed and the hiatusthon organizers for being ridiculously late

"It is the design of this (. . .) to deduce the most important circumstances of its decline and fall; a revolution which will ever be remembered, and is still felt by the nations of the earth."
Edward Gibbons, The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire
Title: Gotta Jump Author: sabaceanbabe Rating: PG-13 Word count: 3,439 Characters/Pairings: Kara Thrace/Sam Anders, Bill Adama, Karl Agathon Spoilers: the missing year and Unfinished Business (including deleted scenes) Original story: Wings (or at least that’s what she’s calling it after the fact :P) Original author: frolicndetour Author’s notes: Written for the bsg_hiatusthon remix challenge. I loved Allie’s fic about the wedding tattoos, but she had some intriguing mentions of other events to add flavor to her fic. I wanted to know more about those snippets, and so, poof! Here be fic. Thank you so much, lyssie and lizardbeth_j, for the beta. :D
Title: What You Can't Let Go Original Story: Needed, by nnaylime Pairing: Kara/Lee Notes/Warnings: PG-13, for sexual situations. Takes place between Unfinished Business and The Passage; spoilers through Unfinished Business. Many thanks to sabaceanbabe for betaing.

Don't forget to post your remixed fic soon! Our end date for this challenge is officially May 26, though we're not going to ban you if you're running a bit late.
Here is the post that explains what you should include in your fic header.

Title: Spartan Authors: volatile/becisvolatile Original Fic:Detritus by pataka02 Rating: PG Spoilers: Through to S4 Characters: Kara, Helo Genre: Remix Word Count: 1200+ Beta:frolicndetour. Mistakes are my own and the bits that suck are probably where I didn’t pay attention to her. Summary: Emptiness will out and what she lacks is fast becoming what she is. Disclaimer: Not my sandpit. Notes: My first ever remix, I sort of stepped out of my box for this. The idea of a remix, for me, seemed to require a bit of fragmentation. I’ve also incorporated Plath’s Lady Lazarus.

Summary: There is nothing for miles but sharp mountains cutting into the horizon. A/N:One day I will write DVD commentary on how I wrote this fic and remixing in general. But not today.Oh, and I made her eight years old instead of six. :-) A/N2: This ficlet is also inspired by the beautiful icons made for me by siljamus
