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

BSG

Ok. First things first, as you will have gathered I sent Roslin her second Quorum card and then her choice of Visions. She has chosen:

Truth and Reconciliation
President's Choice

She has made her choice; Morale falls to 3, and Adama has been escorted to the Brig. You can't do any Admiralling from the Brig, so Lieutenant Kara Thrace, congratulations on your promotion. All hail Admiral Stormageddon Starbuck!

Next, the basestar fires.

Die roll: 7. Hit! Roslin assigns the damage to Pegasus. The basestar hits:

Airlock!

Cottle breathes a sigh of relief. Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Roslin's turn. Cottle's cards are going out. Doc Cottle, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

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

BSG (Roslin)

And how many cards will be wasted to get him OUT?!?!

Zero! I just said I could get him out with a Quorum card.

If it's so bloody easy to raise it, THEN DO IT!

I'VE ALREADY DONE IT ONCE AND I'LL DO IT AGAIN WHEN I GET A CHANCE I JUST SAID YOU CAN'T USE THE SECOND CARD YOU DRAW OH MY GOD STOP YELLING GEEZ.

Seriously, maybe actually listen to exactly what I said before attacking me? Lords of Kobol, I know what I'm doing.

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

BSG (Starbuck)

I'm sorry, I'm having a lot of trouble trusting someone who doesn't consult on BRIGGING a team member who isn't showing any signs of being a Cylon. And now you want us to trust you with an XO?

BSG (Roslin)

I chose Adama because you and Cottle are more needed for the space battle. It was simple. Nothing to do with suspicions. I made him my Vice President, after all.

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

BSG (Doc)

Hm. How about I don't move and I XO-1 Laura and we get Adama free before his turn and try to get me an XO down the road to get a couple of shots at the basestar. I don't feel lucky at the moment.

President Roslin, 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.


Laga - Jul 23, 2013 4:37:01 am PDT #20291 of 26134
You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG (Adama)

And now we find out what Laura has planned...

I play Execute Prisoner and execute Adama.

I said I could get him out.
