"It's sort of incredible what a time traveller carries around in his library," Una said by way of explanation. Another drink. "And that would be directly related to the complications. Sort of." She finished her cigarette and carefully stubbed it out on the ground. Of course it was cleaned up as soon as she looked at it again. "Take two nine-hundred-year-old aliens with centuries of conflict between them, add one human woman who likes them both despite herself, shake well. Results may be explosive."
She wasn't entirely sure why she was being so free with this information. The drinking had something to do with it, no doubt. But it was also a sort of instinctive liking for Starbuck, another complex woman with a military background.
(And in certain lights, she looked a little like Catherine, which didn't hurt either.)
