Spike: At least give me Wesley's office since he's gone. Angel: He's not gone. He's on a leave of absence. Spike: Yeah, right. Boo-hoo. Thought he killed his bloody father. Try staking your mother when she's coming on to you! Harmony: Well…that explains a lot.

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

BSG (Baltar)

Athena, Cally, do either of you have opinions? Speak now, I'm not gonna wait much longer to decide.

Thrive to spite them

BSG (Athena)

I could be helpful.

Good enough. I move to the Armoury and XO Athena.

I will then stand by ready to repair and shoot. In that order, one assumes.

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

BSG

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.

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

Has anybody else tried Final Fantasy: A Realm Reborn ?

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

BSG

Are we waiting on me? Did I miss something? Or is there a lot of back channel discussion on the XO? O lordy, that can't be good, if it's lasting this long.

BSG (Athena)

we're waiting on me. Sorry.

Okay so, I thought I could repair but it turns out I can't.

However I am going to Move to the Hanger Deck and Launch into Sector 5

and according to the Great and Powerful GM I get a bonus action so I'm going to play CP-1 for some extra (hopefully) helpful cards.

Athena plays a Consolidate Power 1 for Yellow and Purple. Cards sent. But Repairs are neither Yellow nor Purple. Baltar's crisis card has Opinions on that. It is:

Code Blue
Current Player's Choice

Gaius Baltarnate, when you're ready, please post your choice.

Edit: heh, I've been composing this for the last half hour while getting Ryan's lunch. I shall remove all the repetition of Athena's orders.

It's true, yellow and purple do not make blue.

Well, this crisis sucks.

I'm leaning towards Option 2, anyone got a compelling argument for Option 1?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG (Apollo)

Nope.

We don't need the positive effect of the skill check, and with spiking in play, it could cost us more than 2 discards each to not get the negative effect.
