Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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

Aw, such a shame. Fortunately, we have a back-up crisis ready to take over, and it is:

Hera Rescued
Current Player's Choice

Apollo, when you're ready, please post your choice.

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

BSG (Kat)

Well, I have no cards, so I can't help in the check. So I would think maybe take the Morale hit?

Thrive to spite them

BSG (Apollo)

I can only help a little with the check.

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

BSG (president)

As much as I hate spending for "no effect", I'd rather nothing, than a hit to a resource. I coould help a LOT, but it would wipe my hand dry, and there are 3 turns until I could replenish. Which I think could be bad. If we can get a couple more "I can help a little", I think we can do this (unless destiny frak's us!)

Is anyone keeping tabs on tabs on destiny? Do we think it will be in our favor or not?

Bump. We're still waiting on Apollo's decision, and I'm still waiting on COs from the players.

BSG (Apollo)

I'm going to go with Option 2 I dont want us to waste cards and fail the check.

Morale falls to 7, as the fleet reacts to the little girl's kidnapping with a "Bon Voyage" party.

Next, the raiders activate. The ones in Sector 6 have places to be, but that pesky RSV was hoping they could start a book club. Suggesting Twilight is the last straw. The raiders fire:

Raider 1: 8. Viper destroyed! The others move to Sector 1.

Next up, the raiders in Sector 4 line up against Apollo. However, he's ready for them, and plays a Run Interference 4. Both raiders miss!

Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Apollo's turn. Kat starts in Sickbay, and may therefore draw just one card. She has opted to draw Purple. Kat, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
