Summary: Kara remembers her mother's lessons.
Author's Notes: Don't write much for BSG, but here it is.

One of the first lessons Kara's mother had taught her was that the sky wasn't blue. She had hauled Kara to the window, pointed at the clouds. "The sky ain't blue, girl. Out there, space is dark and silent. It ain't pretty, no clouds that make shapes, no rain. It's nothing, just a black hole."

Kara forgets it, the way she does with most memories of her mother, until she sees Lee with his forehead pressed to Dee's across the bar. His wife, Kara reminds herself savagely, turning back to Sam and their shot glasses. The sky is not blue.
