Wow. When I read the pairing, I wasn't sure what to expect, especially since it was post-Collaborators, but... damn. Bravo. I love how you play with both of their guilt, the way they alternately want forgiveness and to be punished for what they've done. Nice actually making the connection that they both acted legally under a President's orders, as well.
I think my favorite thing is that you didn't give either of them a happy ending. Nothing so simple as a guilt-frak in an airlock is going to make either of them better. Seriously, seriously awesome.
Oh, and I love the idea of Baltar only being able to give orders in bed, the one thing he is really good at (besides science, and clearly that was lacking on New Caprica.) Having Felix passively follow those orders, then mind-fraking it into the airlock, that was creepy and really cool.
