Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

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

BSG

Cally, you have received an XO. You may either move and take an action, or not move and take two actions. When you're ready, please post your orders.

Meanwhile, I shall update Six and Baltar on their hands.

Thrive to spite them

BSG Cally

I'm going to stay here and launch 2 RSVs into Section 5 and

pray that the Lords of Kobol will smile on us. Instead of letting them get blown out of the sky.

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

BSG (Dee)

You have another action. You can fire on the Raiders or Scout or something.

This is correct. Activating Command gives you two viper activations. What would you like to do for your second action? Reminder: Thanks to the Ambush attack card, all RSVs attack at a -2 modifier.

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

BSG (Doctor Confused)

That was bad advice? THAT WAS BAD ADVICE?!?! What the frak?!? I'm threatened with getting my head blown off after fixing half the vipers, and twiddle-Dee wipes out half the fleet, and they think I'M a Cylon?!?! I... I .... I just don't know what to say.

twiddle-Dee wipes out half the fleet

What now? If it weren't for me, there'd have been a lot more than half the fleet gone.

I'm honestly beginning to doubt your humanity, you've been protesting so strongly in the face of other people actually doing useful things to protect the fleet in a time of crisis.

So strongly?? I just started when threatened with my head being blown off. What? I should just lay back and take it like a man? Fine.

I'll fire on the Raiders.

I was just offering it as possiblity because there some doubts. If it was anyone else I would have offered to shoot them in the face too.

Right then, both RSVs fire at the raiders:

RSV 1: 6 - 2 = 4. Hit!
RSV 2: 2 - 2 = 0. Miss.

Six' crisis is:

Haunted by the Past
Skill Check (12 YG)

Possible interrupts: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself.

Pass on interrupts. How do we feel about this check? I can help a lot, but I know there's been a lot of discarding already, so do we have the power to pass it? Would it be better to tank? Random is random, but it depends on what our hands look like.
