I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

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

BSG

With no word from Roslin, Apollo has decided not to risk it. Instead he's going to check out the criis deck; he plays a Launch Scout 1.

Die roll: 8. Pass! Crisis card details are going out. Apollo, when you're ready, please post whether to put it on the top or the bottom of the deck.

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

BSG (Apollo)

Huzzah for the surviving raptor (I forget what we call that first raptor, but I'm glad she's still with us!)

There are definitely worse crises lurking out there. We'll keep this one on top.

Sorry I couldn't get you out of sickbay, Cally, May the gods smile upon your return to health.

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

BSG (Chief)

I hope it activates Raiders and has no jump icon!! I'll bet that's totally the sort of Crisis you would pick.

Apollo keeps the crisis on top. As he is in the Brig, however, it won't be played this turn. That concludes Apollo's turn. As Cally starts her turn in Sickbay, she draws only one card. She has opted to draw Blue. Cally, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

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

BSG (Cally)

I will move to FTL Control and Play R-2 to repair it.

BSG

FTL Control is repaired. You're not leaving so soon, are you? Yes you are, as this crisis has a jump icon! Cally's crisis card is:

Elections Loom
Skill Check (8 YG)

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