metaphasiaTitle: Like Clockwork
Fandom: Battlestar Galactica
Character: Starbuck, Apollo, Boomer
Word Count: 100
Rating: G
Summary: Stress, though inevitable, manifests itself in different ways.
By hour one hundred, everyone has started to get sloppy. Three pilots show it least though.
Starbuck is wild. She has always ridden on the seat of her pants, in and out of the cockpit, but she starts pushing herself and her fighter harder. Only the fighters have failed so far.
Boomer is steady. Where Starbuck is loud, she goes silent. She stops joking and flirting, focusing only on flying.
Apollo is perfect. His maneuvers are still always parade precise, but now he starts to come unraveled between runs.
"They're like machines," one of the techs jokes. No one laughs.
