You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I'm for working the quorum.

The voice of the people is the voice of the Gods.

I activate the President's Office and draw 2 Quorum cards then activate it again, draw one card, and wait to see what the draw is.

Given that quite a few of these take a die roll, does anyone have an SP or a Calcs?

In this state of emergency, I believe Food Rationing is the wise course of action.

Can I get some planning assistance, gentlemen?

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

BSG

President Zarek has played Food Rationing. The die roll can be modified by an SP. Everyone, please pass or play. If anyone has a Calcs, they may send me COs for whether they pass or play after the roll.

We have an SP! Time to roll it. Incidentally, my other dice have turned up. This Food Rationing will be rolled using the speckled blue and black d8, white numbering.

Die roll: 1 + 2 = 3. Fail. Sorry about that, Apparently it's still pissed off that I lost it in the first place.

You know what will take your mind off it? A crisis! The State of Emergency is now over, which means Apollo's guard is down. His crisis is:

Raptor Malfunction
Current Player's Choice

Apollo, when you're ready, please post your choice. If he chooses the skill check, possible interrupts will be an IC and/or a Reckless interrupt. Everyone, please send me COs for that eventuality.

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

BSG

Rats! I was hoping that emergency would be more fruitful, but at least Zarek basically has, like, all the Quorum cards in the world now.

I choose Option 2. There's a reason I gave up those noodles. Ergh, my stomach feels funny.

Remember that launching a Viper with Command is a way to get me out of Sickbay without an XO, although there's no reason to put me in space early until we're attacked. Of course, if we're attacked, I will probably be able to jump into a Viper. Long story short, going to Sickbay is no problem for me.
