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

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

BSG (Baltar)

All right!

So, now what do we want to do? I don't see trying to brig anyone as being helpful right now, so I am thinking I will move, and probably XO somebody. Shall we get Athena out of Sickbay? Shoot at Cylons? Where should I go, what should we do?

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

BSG (Zarek)

Thank you for playing your card, Apollo! See??

Baltar, I say get Athena out of Sickbay now. If we're lucky, we jump on your turn, so I don't see a huge offense being necessary now, whereas it could be worse if we get attacked in our new location. Let's get Athena in a better position now.

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

BSG (Cally)

BSG (Apollo)

Ok, guys, it sounds pretty solid, so I'm going to lay out on this one.

Yeah, that wasn't what I would call solid. Thanks to Zarek for saving our asses there. Nice job! That was a little too close. On the upside, at least we didn't waste a lot of cards over shooting.

I'm a bit hesitant to break a Cylon leader out of sickbay. Not quite sure where her loyalties are at. But I agree, hopefully, we jump before anything puts us in harms way.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG (Apollo)

Sheesh, I guess you're right! You all really meant "a little," didn't you? Anyway, good teamwork again.

I think right now Athena's been playing human, so as long as she'd like to continue that trend it might make sense to spring her.

Otherwise, shooting, shooting's always good.

Thrive to spite them

(BSG) Athena

I love humans! Especially sexy ones. And I would love to get out of Sickbay and help the sexy humans.

BSG

Gaius Baltar reveals where he sees himself on the sexy divide. His orders are:

Move to Communications
Play Executive Order 1 on Athena

Athena, 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.

Thrive to spite them

BSG (Athena)

Go Team Humanity!

Okay a question before I shake off the sick bay dust - do you guys need me to be super action-y this turn or can I get myself into a better position for future helpfulness?


Laga - Jan 28, 2014 12:25:38 am PST #21974 of 26134
You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG (Sexy Romo)

What sort of super action did you have in mind?

BSG (Baltar)

I don't know about need, but super action-y sounds more fun. For me to watch. But if you have something strategic in mind, I suppose that could have long term value.

I don't know!
