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

BSG (Boomer)

Wouldn't it! But no such luck. I kind of thought it was Gaeta, but then he pulled that YANC shit, but...he could have turned metal after that. I don't even know about you and Anders. Either option is bad. All options are bad. President, Admiral, the other pilot? Man, this is not going to end well.

BSG (Six)

Shit's about to get serious, yeah.

I don't even. I have a couple of options, I could still keep repairing stuff. Or I could XO somebody, but not Anders because he follows me. XO is most effective when it's someone already in the location. So alternately, I could move, myself.

What do you humans suggest?

BSG (Tory)

Right. Well. I suppose Repairs are generally a good idea but don't seem urgent at the moment. CIC is not a bad place for you to be hanging out, since we have incoming basestars you'll be able to shoot at shortly.

Well, an XO to me would let me go fishing for useful quorum cards.

You could XO me to head to Main Batteries and fix them. Me over there would be good when all the Raiders show up.

BSG (6)

Okay, let's go with that. For my movement phase, I stay still and get Intimate (just go with it) with Tory, drawing one of her cards and allowing her to draw a Purple. And then for my action phase, I play XO1 on the Admiral.

BSG (President Now I Want Ice Cream)

I like that idea better than Six doing the same repair, have both of you ready to deploy as XOs become available.

Eta: Oooh. That was...interesting...

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

BSG

Admiral Gaeta, 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.

BSG(Admiral-T-Bone)

I Discard TI-0 and Move to Pegasus Main Batteries where I play Repair-1

On a vaguely connected note, the way we're doing ICs right now means Trust Instincts is mostly useless to Human players.

BSG

Pegasus is almost back to full health. Of course, the materials to do so don't come out of nowhere. We may need a little requisition action. Six' crisis card is:

Pressure the Supply Ships
 Admiral's Choice

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