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

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

BSG (Tory)

OK, then. What needs doing?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG (6)

Sheesh.

And ha, just about everything. You could get Boomer bringing more civvies home, right? Or there's repairs that need done, but unfortunately I'd guess Boomer and I just both blew our Repair wads on failing that check. There's the Centurions on the boarding party track that could use being destroyed. And then there's the Morale in the red, got anything in the Quorum for that?

What the frak, I might as well use my OPG while we aren't actually getting shot at. Maybe I set up something useful for the near future.

The details of the top five Quorum cards have been sent to Tory. When you're ready, please send me the order in which you would like to arrange them.

BSG (The Great and Powerful Tory)

OK, Galacticans, I can be extremely effective in a variety of ways if y'all can get me XOs - Morale can be raised (or lowered!), suspicious characters embriggened, damage repaired. So many options!

Tory has reordered the Quorum deck. With this display of political strength, Tory is clearly a major threat to the Cylons' plans, and they're out to silence her. Tory's crisis is:

Terrorist Bomber
Skill Check (9 GP)

This check hits Morale, so if it fails, the Cylons win! Possible interrupts: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play.

BSG (President Foster)

Hahahahahaha, awesome. Well, clearly we'll need to convene a committee. I mean, that's the natural response, right?

Do we feel Reckless? I kinda think I do, but I thought I'd ask if the people support it, as it were.
