(Number Six continued...)

A headcanon fact: When assigned a particular mission, just like the rest of the Cylon models, the Sixes were given human names, complete with detailed background and histories and documents to perfectly blend in with humanity. Normally, when a Cylon had completed a task they were to resume using their regular model number, however the Sixes found themselves growing attached to their human names and decided to keep them. Even Sixes who weren't given missions wanted their own names as well, to be given their own freedom of expressing individuality. There were those who opposed the idea of such a human thing (i.e. the Cavils in particular), but because the Six models were so strongly determined over something they got passionate about and wouldn't go down without a fight, that it wasn't argued against.

Interestingly enough, Caprica Six didn't want to keep her human name, fearing that it would be seen as holding onto something of the past and her relationship with Gaius Baltar, and it hurt too much just thinking about it. She accepted the new given title by her fellow Cylons because it was considered a high praise of her people. Once realizing that Gaius was still alive and her feelings returned full-force, she thought about returning to the name she had used, but resisted, knowing that it would hurt the cause she was trying to accomplished with Boomer. By the time they had arrived on the planet Earth, hand-in-hand with Gaius Baltar, she decided there was no need to hold onto that past. She then created herself a new human name, something that she and Gaius could both accept and move onto their new life together.

A scene/moment that sums up this character: Although each Six is different, all with great scenes that sums up their individual character arc, they all share similar traits that sums up every single one of them. I'm reminded of one particular scene in the first season when a Six is walking with a Doral along the streets of Caprica looking for Sharon and Helo, and they're having this conversation:

SIX: She thinks she loves him now, that she can't live without him. Her passion is making her more resourceful.
DORAL: It bothers you, doesn't it?
SIX: We'll get them in the end.
DORAL: No, it bothers you that you've never experienced it.
SIX: You saw the way Helo was when we took her away. He was pathetic.
DORAL: I can't help wondering what it would be like to feel that intensely. Even in his anguish he seemed so...alive.

Throughout this scene, her expression betrays her words because you can clearly see her at the very end of it where she is getting slightly emotional, but holds it together. We don't know who this Six was, but it's pretty clear that she does want to know what love is like. To feel that intensely about another. The Sixes were considered catalysts to understanding the humanity within the Cylons themselves, and this is a perfect example of that.

An idea I have for the character that I haven't written: For some reason, I've always imagined whenever head!Six and head!Gaius aren't around, they are off somewhere drinking some fancy drinks talking about how their end is going, complete with sassy snarking and comparing notes.
