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

BSG

bt, if I Infiltrate, do I have any choice as to where I appear, and does it have to be on Galactica?

Yes to both. You can choose any Galactica location, except Sickbay or the Brig.

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

BSG (Dee)

Aw, Six wants to go repair the Engine Room.

All right, at this point, I firmly believe Six is on Team Human, but I have no idea what her conflicting Cylon-positive agenda is, so we should be wary of...whatever that can be.

I'm IN YOUR HEAD, Gaius.

For Movement I indulge in a little long-distance Intimacy with Baltar, filching one of his cards and fetching him another Politics.

For Action I Activate Human Fleet and Infiltrate the Research Lab.

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

Is it warm in here, or is it just me. Wait a second. It IS just me. I could have sworn there was a hot woman in a red dress in here. What the.... What did that nuke blast do to my brain.

(bt, I'm guessing you tell me which card was pinched)?

Cards sent. Six appears in the Research Lab. After some rigorous application of the scientific method, Dr Baltar ascertains that the rest of the crew can see her too. Caprica Six is infiltrating! That means that she now counts as human for most purposes, including drawing a crisis card. Hey, looks like that last jump wasn't as smooth as you thought. Six' crisis card is:

Rescue the Fleet
Admiral's Choice

Admiral Tigh, when you're ready, please post your choice.

BSG (Dee-stressed)

Oh, frak. Normally, I would say to take the Pop hit, but we've seen what happens on New Caprica. I think Option 2 is it. No rest for the wicked. I'm in Comms, ready to send ships to their doom.

Safety. I mean safety.

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

BSG (Starbuck)

Phew, I don't even know. It'd be nice to have a little time to breath before we're under attack, but 2 Pop does seem like a lot.

I should be able to cover these putative civvies with the same protection offered before the jump if ordered into space. So that's something, I guess.


Laga - Jan 25, 2012 6:28:42 am PST #14912 of 26134
You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG (Tigh me to the moon)

Right, this is the kind of population loss that could be Very Bad by the time we get to New Caprica. I choose option 2.

don't know what you people are whining about. You could be dead and then how happy would you be?

BSG

Aw, yeah. That's what I'm talking about. Morale falls by 1 as the fleet realises "no man left behind" means "people not me".

The new raiders activate immediately. Finally the jump track advances. That concludes Six' turn. Baltar's cards are going out. Dr Baltar, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
