Aha, actually following the rules makes it all simple! Excellent.
Boosting Morale would be pretty sweet. Hooray Jump Prep!

Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Have you guys bought stuff through Steam? Was it successful? There's a bunch of stuff on sale right now [link] but it seems a little wonky to me. I intend to buy the giant sims pack, which will duplicate some stuff I have, but I think it'll be necessary to have their version to play? And I saw in the forae an elaborate process to buy the software from Steam, but then register it through Origin (EA's direct store) so that I can buy future expansion packs (Pets!) if Steam doesn't end up supporting it. I dunno. I'm torn. Seems like a large amount of hassle, but a) I have the bandwidth right now and b) it's a pretty legit deal if it works.

I have bought stuff through Steam, big bundle o' games, but then something shiny distracted me and I kind of forgot I had those games to play so it's hard to say if it was worthwhile. I did get everything I was supposed to get, though. I think.

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

That's long enough for interrupts. We have an IC on the check, courtesy of Apollo, which means you get to see Destiny:
Investigative Committee 3
Launch Scout 2
Running tally: 5 - 0 = 5. Fail.
Destiny sees Helo going all Fight Club on Galactica, and approves. Apollo is up next. I'm taking COs from anyone else that has them.

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

Well, hot damn, Destiny. I play 0 cards, then. Looks like you guys can take it the rest of the way, no problem.

Nice, Anders! That's a card we don't really need to play right now since we're good on Fuel, so this is perfect!

Orders from Gaeta: play Launch Scout 2.
Running tally: 13 - 0 = 13. Pass! Unless, of course, Zarek or Helo spike it. I have COs from Helo; President Zarek, what is your play?

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Thank you! Not bad for a Pyramid star! Not as sexy as your awesome de-debrigging all by yourself, but hey, I got it half way there.
