It's an interesting choice. Someone's playing a long game, looking as human as possible until a devastating blow can be dealt, but who? And how hard are they trying to conceal their intent?

Meanwhile, I'm very interested to see what Six does now. Peaceful coexistence ahoy?

Eta: aw, I appreciate your faith in me, Dee, but I think the Admiralty would go back to Tigh, now, if you were to get too bummed out to live.

Our wings are not tired

I understand the suspicion. Caprica is a tough nut to crack and I'm really worried about spending too much time on the planet, it has not worked out well for us in past games.

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

Cards sent. When you're ready, please post your move and action.

Hmmmmph. I guess Saul has the right idea. Move to Shipyard and Prep 1.

Six heads off to fiddle around with some of the civvies. Hey, have any of you noticed that she's a Cylon? Are you sure she's helping out with that ship? Six' crisis card is:

Betrayed from Within
Skill Check (9 YG)

Possible interrupts: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Baltar Dee plays first, Six last.

The thematic appropriateness is choking.

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

BSG (Dee)

Okay, whoa, we need to at least partial pass this! I can only help a little, unfortunately. But, hey, Roslin should be able to help on this one, heh.

Pass on interrupts.

BSG (Starbuck)

Do we? We don't lose Morale if she's executed, right? I mean, she's been a helping friendly Cylon so losing all her cards would be a drag, but the other effects don't seem so bad.

Not that I can help with the check, so it's all academic to me.

BSG (Dee)

Mostly it's the cards, as well as the fact that she'll no longer be infiltrating, which means she'll have to use up another action to get back to helping us, an action that could be used to prep ships instead.

At this point my guess is that her Cylon agenda is to get a resource below a certain point, and we've pretty much fulfilled that, so I don't think we have to worry about her doing dastardly metal things. But she's got a lot of cards, and she can help on these final crucial checks.
