Summary: The events of The Farm catch up with Kara. This story goes completely AU after Home, part 2.

Spoilers: Everything up to and including Home, part 2.

Author's notes: This story has been in the planning stages for a very long time. In fact I began thinking about it long before Resurrection Ship aired and Shards was written to make it easier for me to understand where Kara was coming from. Reading Shards is by no means necessary to make sense out of this one, as this story is a stand alone.

Warnings: Non-descriptive references to child abuse (how did child abuse get to be an 'adult issue' anyway?).
