BSG vid recs – Three women

[hazelk]

Jolene by nicole_anell
Fabulous look at Cally and her tragic lack of fabulousness.

Ghosts by beccatoria
Haunting study of Caprica Six, like the little mermaid doomed to be always slightly out of phase with the brave new world she made.

Hera has six mommies by tallulah71 for cyborganize
Fascinating and not a little addictive. The women whirl past as if in a game of ‘Oranges and Lemons,’ connecting to tell a chain story like the bells in the song. Hera runs through the middle. “Here comes a candle to take you to bed. Here comes a chopper to chop off your head.” Beautiful, in all senses of the word, queer and strangely heart warming in one.

Thanks for the recs! I hadn't come across "Jolene" and it's really great.

Isn't it! Smart but not in a way that detracts from the emotional point in any way and choosing the White Stripes version of the song is pure genius.
