Our wings are not tired

Okay, I'm going to go for it. I'm playing my AAC-3 as an interrupt before the check so treachery cards are now positive, but it does make this a reckless check.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Ooh, clever. Let's rock this!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

BSG

A cunning plan! I have passes on interrupts from everyone else. Anders is up first. I have some COs.

Destiny: 2 cards
Anders:
Cain: COs received
Baltar: COs received
Boomer:
Cally: COs received

Boomer, we would appreciate it if you didn't play into this check. Remember how nice we were to you? I broke you out of Sickbay and everything. And I got you those octagonal cheese crackers you like so much. Those cost a pretty penny on the black market, I tell you. We had some good times before you betrayed us and sabotaged the FTL and broadcast our location and continued to plot our demise. Good times, Boomer. We had good times.

I do like those crackers.

We'll see, Baby-eater.

What's a little baby-eating between newly sworn enemies?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG

(Hey, guys, sorry, I just now got home from work! Long ass day.)

And it's bad news, I'm afraid. I cannot help; because I converted most of my hand to piloting (which turns out to be good for the future since the other pilot appears to be a treasonous treasony traitor) I don't have the relevant colors. So it's bad for now.

So that may change your CO's. And I'm sorry the delay caused a waste of your AAC.

I play no cards.

I have orders from everyone else. Let's see how this works out:

Destiny: 2 cards
Anders: 0 cards
Cain: 0 cards
Baltar: 0 cards
Boomer: 0 cards
Cally: 3 cards

Look at that, Boomer heeded Baltar's cowardly, snivelling pleas. He ate a baby, wouldn't you listen to him? Cards played:

Launch Scout 2
Strategic Planning 4
Scientific Research 3
Scientific Research 5
God's Plan 2

Tally: 16 - 0 = 16. Pass! Cally's Herculean efforts manage to track down the culprit (Priestess Elosha, apparently. Who knew?), with no fallout except that exposure to the Priestess' "chamalla brownies" have left Cally with a monster case of the munchies. You lose 1 Food.

Next, the undamaged basestar launches a heavy raider. News of the chamalla brownies has spread, it seems. Finally, the jump prep advances by 1. That concludes Cally's turn. I'm sending Anders' cards out now. Mr Anders, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Administrative note: Anders' card draw has exhausted the Leadership deck. I've reshuffled the discards.
