You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

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

BSG

She's a Cylon!

If that's how it works, Starbuck's about to feel awfully lonely.

I now have everyon'e starting draw, to wit:

Baltar: 1 Yellow, 1 Green, 1 Blue
Chief: 1 Yellow, 1 Green, 1 Blue
Cally: 1 Yellow, 1 Green, 1 Blue
Helo: 1 Green, 1 Purple, 1 Red
Gaeta: 1 Green, 1 Purple, 1 Blue

Yep, Baltar, Chief and Cally all went for exactly the same card draw. Destiny has been built, trauma has been dispensed liberally. Everyone has received their loyalty cards. All that remains is the obliteration of the Twelve Colonies and... done. Buffistica 17 is ready to depart!

Starbuck, your turn is first. What would you like for your variable draw?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Can I get put on the kibbitzing bench? Especially with the new elements, I'd like to see the behind the veil stuff, even if I can't play.

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

BSG (peanut gallery)

Man, party on the Hangar Deck.

BSG (peanut gallery)

Gee, good thing there's nobody there capable of SHOOTING ANYBODY IN THE FACE that she happens to be in the same room with.

It's not a BSG party until someone gets shot in the face.

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

BSG (Gaeta)

Everyone better move off the damn Hangar Deck in case Kat is feeling a bit...antagonistic.

This actually happened to me in one game. I was playing Kat. She got XO'd to repair a couple of Mk VIIs; instead she shot me IN THE FACE and then revealed. The very first turn, shot in the face.
