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

There I go showing my ignorance of the show again. I had no idea a Boomer was going by Athena.

Suddenly I remeber meeting the original (Maren Jensen) at a county fair when I was 10. She signed my Hooved Animal Society t-shirt. I proceeded to wear it almost daily until it was threadbare, then I put it up in a box in my closet. I have no idea where it is now.

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

Boomer was the gal who flew off Caprica without Helo, and then proceeded to shoot the old man. Athena was the gal who seduced Helo and had a baby. They locked her up, and used her. It took many episodes for her to prove that she wasn't siding with the cylons.

So it wasn't that she was *going* by Athena, it was more a second version that took on the name Athena.

D will be home soon and wanting the computer. Apologies if Starbuck plays before I get back and y'all end up waiting for me.

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

It's not a problem, I have COs.

I have orders from everyone. Here are the card plays:

Destiny: 2 cards
Starbuck: 1 card
Tigh: no cards
Apollo: 2 cards
Chief: 3 cards
Zarek: 1 card
Helo: 1 card

At this point I need to pause to confirm something with one of the players before revealing the cards. Shouldn't take long.

Don't worry, Omnis. I'll kill you long before your anticipation gets a shot.

Happy Birthday, btw, you frakker!

Sorry about that. Yeah due to my Blind Devotion to... self preservation, I guess. All red cards will count 0 towards this check.

(it's my once per game ability)
