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

Alas, hands shall now go unforced. But since so many of the crew are currently sitting around and waiting for something to shoot at, I simply must oblige. Athena's crisis card is:

The Olympic Carrier
Skill Check (11 YGR)

What, you thought it'd be Cylon ships? This is more fun, in that will they/won't they kind of way. Possible interrupts: IC, SR, RO, ASC, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Zarek plays first, Athena last.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG (Apollo)

I interrupt! This has all been very nice, failing checks and whatnot, but I'd rather, you know, pass them. So I play IC3 to keep our hypothetical Cylon honest and to keep us from overplaying or underplaying ourselves.

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

Hooray!

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

BSG (Zarek)

I can help a little.

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

BSG (Cally)

Grrr, I am really hating this no-one-card thing. I'm afraid I can't help at all.

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

BSG (Romo)

I can help.

Uh. So Hot Dog is a Cylon? I was right about that? So much for giving him the benefit of the doubt.

Our wings are not tired

BSG (Hot Dog)

WTH, according to the frakking email Red is positive for this check.

eta Yeah, it's Red positive in the check, and even in the math in the post it shows my cards as positive. So far nothing has been negative in this check. So yeah, not a toaster. Nice try.

According to the tally, also. The red cards have to be positive for us to have 14. I'm sure that's just a typo.
