GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

BSG

I'll fire on the raiders twice.

"Alright, frakkers. Let's see how you like it."

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

I have passes on interrupts. Let's roll.

Shot 1: 3. Hit!

Shot 2: 4. Hit!

Two raiders have been shot down, one remains.

Pradmiral Tigh, when you're ready please post your choice.

"Apollo to Galactica, 2 bogeys destroyed. Think you can mop up the last one, Starbuck?"

I can help a little with the check.

BSG

Oh my.

I'll go with the skill check as I'm running low on cards as it is. I cannot offer any cards to boost this check but I'm not a fan of brigging anyone yet if it can be avoided. Maybe I can offer one but I'll make that decision once I see if we've got enough cards to clear the goal.

"Colonial Fleet; we will be jumping imminently. Many of you have voiced concerns regarding how the Cylons keep finding us. There is talk of Cylons hidden within the fleet. I wish to let you know that we will continue to investigate this grave threat and that as your Pradmiral, I will start at the top and work my way down. No stone will be left unturned.

Okay, that's it. What are you waiting for, an invitation? Spool up yer frakkin' FTLs!"

Well, hello there Pradmiral. I can't imagine you've left your command - oh, that's right, you have two now.

How can I help you? Because I can help you, quite a lot.

BSG

I can assist this check a great deal.

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

BSG

Pradmiral, I'm curious why you burned a card to move to Colonial One, and then to Admin, if not to use the skill check in the room to have a balance of power? Seems a bit wasteful. You could have XO'd your son from Weapons, or other location on Galactica. Rather curious.

As for the current check, I can't help much.

Hey, let's not start claiming family ties that don't exist. The Pradmiral is more like a crazy uncle to me.

Lol. Oops. Wrong Admiral. Must be feeling the effects of the radiation. How about that rescue?

I, too, am interested in knowing why he's here - unless it's to keep me from calling for an election. Wasteful, wasteful, wasteful.

I already had that chance - and I prioritized destroying a Cylon base-star over my political ambitions.

Eventually, someone will notice he's not acting on humanity's behalf and remove him from both positions of power. I don't think I'll be very effective in that regard while he has his gun's muzzle touching my right temple.

In the meantime, I will use all my influence to keep us from dying. Would be nice if the head of both the civilian government, and the military power-structure, did the same.
