I beat Portal 2 tonight. I was basically completely unspoiled for everything plot/character-related. Holy fucking shit, what an amazing game.
These girls have the most beautiful dresses. And so do I -- how about that?

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

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I still need to play Portal 1.
I've been playing Lego Batman 2 and finally unlocked Superman the other night. He's a ton of fun to play (though flying him around the Gotham City overmap is frustrating). So many games with multiple heroes try to make them "balanced" which ultimately ends up unsatisfying. Here they just decided "Nope, he's Superman; enjoy."

Okay. Well. We have a few options here.
I'm thinking either I can XO Cally to get out of the brig in hopes that she can do something good with that second action, or I can harangue the Quorum into improving Morale. What do we think humans? Anyone have a SP, by chance?
I stay in the brig, I don't get a crisis, no jump icon, so there's also just straight up get me out of the brig to consider.

I also need to play Portal 1. I am not entirely certain which computer I was playing it on, but I think I still have it...

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
BSG (Cally)
As much as I would like to be sprung I think we need to raise morale ASAP
Portal 2
I haven't played yet but it is a hoot and half listening to D play it.

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

Portal 2
I feel like I have to finish Portal 1. But I get really frustrated with the keyboard interface trying to jump and make portals at the same time.

Assassins Creed 2
Update. It is done! Woot. After another 45 minutes or so. About 10 minutes of that was practicing the damn wall sideways jump, I got through the final tomb. Took about 8 times, but finally did it! Got the last seal, and unlocked the special armour. Alas, everything else is done, so, no need for the extra special armour.

Oh, good Lords of Kobol, I forgot that Dad's in Sickbay. That is an immediately solvable problem, so I will XO-1 him out of there.
If we live long enough for his turn, we want his full card draw. Cally, if you can XO me we can still get Morale up, gods willing. Dad, I do not know what you should do with this XO, but I want you healthy, so, good luck.

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 Adama, 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.

Orders are in. Adama is determined to find out why he got sick, and prevent it happening to anyone else!
Move: Research Lab
Action: Draw 1 Purple
The results are in: don't punch Helo. Card sent. Since Apollo is still in the Brig, there's no crisis card, and this concludes his turn. Cally's cards are going out. Cally, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
