Fic: The Spartans

Fic: The Spartans, Part Nine: The Road to Glory

The calm before the storm, maybe; this and the previous part were supposed to be all one chapter, but they kind of...grew. More stuff about the difference between "history" and actual events, and more evidence that these guys have such different outlooks from our own that pigeonholing them as goodies and baddies does them an injustice. Hope Polly doesn't come across as too weepy and pathetic, but she is a bit desperate by that point. Oh, and I totally ship her and Ben, by the way, as if I hadn't made that abundantly clear.

Yeah, I don't think I'd be up to portraying the Brig doing anything that might make people queasy - I mean, he's the Brig - it's like the Queen or something... ;D

And yeah, I'm a firm believer that if it's funny it excuses anything at all, but of course there's always the risk some people won't think it's funny...

And as for whether the plot (or lack of it) makes sense, well - there'll be plenty of time for explanations later (and more than explanations if it happens to be Ace Rimmer)!
