I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

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

BSG

We managed a whole jump cycle without being attacked!

Now it's time for things to get crazy. How about once we arrive, you just raise your hand if you're a Cylon?

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

But we can't see hands in here. Clearly we need a written record.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Raises hand. Oh, wait, I'm not playing this game.

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

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

BSG

The fleet arrives at the Lion's Head Nebula. Fuel takes a battering, but what a ride! Enough to get your heart singing, isn't it? Well, something's singing anyway, You hear that music, don't you? Don't you?

New loyalty cards are going out now. That concludes Zarek's turn. Helo's cards are going out. Helo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Oooh, wow, I hope that was worth it. We're close to our goal!

Jump Track: 2 (Red)

Is this for real? It also gives us jump prep?

It does! Damn, that's a nice Destination.

Yep. Costs 4 Fuel - it's the only destination where the Fuel cost is greater than the distance travelled. If you can afford it, though, it can be pretty sweet.

I thought you hotdogs would like that. Lemme make sure I'm still human before I decide what to do.

Dang, still human. Yes, I am a little disappointed. It's been a while since I got to wreak metallic vengeance.

Who wants an XO? I'm thinking Zarek unless y'all have a better idea.
