Title: Broken Skies, Broken Sunsets
Author: [livejournal.com profile] lls_mutant
Fandom: Battlestar Galactica (new)
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: none
Prompt: 113: do authors who write Indian romances love the nation they endeavour successfully or unsuccessfully to describe? Do they, like Tecumseh, say, "And I, who love your nation, which is just, when deeds deserve it," or is the Indian introduced into literature but to lend a dash of vivid colouring to an otherwise tame and somber picture of colonial life? It looks suspiciously like the latter reason, or why should the Indian always get beaten in the battles of romance, or the Indian girl get inevitably the cold shoulder in the wars of love? -- Pauline Johnson (Tekahionwake--literally "double life" ) (1861-1913) Mohawk Canadian poet, short story writer, journalist and performer.
Summary: Growing up, Dee loved romance novels. As she got older, she noticed that something was really off about them.
