Okay, I have a few options here. I could XO Boomer to finish escorting civvies. I could XO Anders to make pew pew noises. Or I could bravely move to the failing Pegasus and repair her. Or I could somewhat less bravely move to the Hangar Deck and get those last couple of fancy new Mk VII Vipers patched up.
What's the will of the people here? I'm leaning toward repairs, because I'm not sure we want to lose all the firepower of Pegasus at this stage of the game, with combat so likely to keep mattering as we go.
BSG (Tory)
It feels very odd to be advising a Cylon Leader not to XO Anders in case he's a cylon, but there it is, the caution is relevant.
It would be nice to not lose Pegasus. It would also be nice to destroy some of our enemies. I don't know.
Pegasus is now one hit away from being destroyed.
If there is no air in space, will it make a noise as it blows up? At least pretty fireworks? Either way, I think it will make a spectacular mess! Worthy of Mythbusters fun!
(Just giving equal time, since I was so vocal in the nuke on the basestar)

BSG (Six)
No, you're right. But I'm a Cylon Leader who is
on your side!
Because I'm awesome like that. And it's a good caution.
So it's either XO Boomer or start repairs.
Okay, I think I will
discard SD2
in order to
move to Pegasus CIC
which I will then
play R1 to Repair.
BSG (Boomer)
Um, I need my recon.
BSG
Um, I need my recon.
I need my breakfast. Won't anybody think of the breakfast?
BSG
Boomer has opted to keep her Recon crisis on top, which means it becomes Six' crisis. The fleet has twigged that something is amiss with Six - they suspect that the administration has invited a Cylon on board, and is covering up the fact. "Look at her!", they cry. "Could any mere human be that sexy?" The Press demands answers, Madam President. Will you provide them? Six' crisis card is:
Ambushed by the Press
President's Choice
President Foster, when you're ready, please post your choice.
BSG (Tory)
You know what, Press? I'm tired of all the "gotcha" questions. Eat your Morale!
Option 1.
BSG
Morale falls by 1 as Tory informs the press that her administration will henceforth be known as "the Sexy Junta", and press access will be severely curtailed as she's "sick of having to pretend you walruses are even in the same species as the sexy people in the opening credits"! (It doesn't fall any further, because deep down they know she's right.)
Fortunately, there's a swift change of topic, as the raiders sidle up to Boomer just before the fleet jumps away! Destinations are being sent to the Admiral. Admiral Gaeta, when you're ready, please post your choice.
