I'm a single undead gal trying to make it in the big city. I have to start somewhere and they're evil here. They don't judge. They've got necro-tempered glass. No burning up. A great medical plan, and who needs dental more than us?

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

BSG (Cally)

I can't help at all. Sounds like you and Adama may be able to pull it off, though.

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

Since debrigging is a hot topic, I'll ask all the humans to send me COs for interrupts, and everyone can send me COs for their play into a Brig check if they wish.

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

BSG (DeeTermined!)

OK! The CAGprimiral (or however we mash those three together) has my back! Let's do this!

MOVE: can't. DeeTained.

ACTION: Initiate check to get me the FRAK outta here!

Everyone passes on interrupts. You know how it is. The check begins (7 YP); Baltar is up first.

In non-BSG news, I have a new Ticket to Ride high score. Using the 1910 Expansion set, tonight I scored 435 points.

I was pretty rapt. It was against an AI, so not so much a contest of wills as solving a puzzle. Nonetheless, pretty nifty solution.

Tally: 13 - 8 = 5. Fail. However, this result is within range of a Declare Emergency. I don't have COs for it; all human players, please pass or play.

Ok, now I have COs for it; CAGmident Adama plays a Declare Emergency 3. Dee walks free! Xomething else for which I don't have COs; Dee, where would you like to move to?

While Dee decides that, I'm sorry to report that some of Dee's former associates have taken to making snide comments behind her back, now that she's been in stir. Dee's crisis card is:

Loss of a Friend
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 plays first, Dee last.
