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

BSG (Chief)

Curse you, Adama! I HOPE YOU CHOKE ON THOSE CUPCAKES.

Oh, hey, looks like someone just may do that.

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

BSG (Apollo)

Dang. I have to agree, Cally. Option 2.

That is probably not an in character thing to say, "Dang", but it exresses my feelings accurately, so I'm going with it.

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

BSG

Food and Population fall by 1 as the food rationing efforts go horribly/awesomely wrong (pick one). Next, the raiders fire at the battlestars:

Raider 1: 3. Miss.
Raider 2: 3. Miss.
Raider 3: 4. Miss.

Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Cally's turn. Roslin's cards are going out. Ms Roslin, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG (Roslin)

Ok, it looks like I'm pretty limited in my options here, so I do not mo e and I play CP1 to draw 1P 1B.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Do not move, that is, although I'm sure I also do not moe.

Cards sent to the moe-eschewing Laura Roslin, along with that Vision thing. Ms Roslin, when you're ready, please post your choice of crisis card.

Roslin has made her choice. The repurcussions of the paucity of din-dins continue to be felt, as the prison ship demands to know what happened to Tuesday's regular falafel night. Roslin's crisis card is:

Prisoner Revolt
Skill Check (11 YGP)

Possible interrupts: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Adama plays first, Roslin last.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG (Cally)

Pass on interrupts. I can help a lot.

I'm not sure it would be a good idea but I'm just throwing this out there- it's my impression that Roslin has felt kind of useless since losing the presidency. Would it be worth 1 pop to give it back to her and save all our cards? Not voting to tank at the moment, just seeing if it's as crazy an idea as I think it is.

Thrive to spite them

BSG (Adama)

I can help a little.
