I can't XO someone to activate the Admiral's Quarters (provided I draw an XO) because the location is currently damaged. The only way to Brig Apollo before his turn is for to repair and then activate the AQ myself.

But yeah, this sounds like a great time to use my Blind Devotion ability. Mr GM, kindly negate any Red cards in this check.

ETA: I'm leaning towards brigging Apollo, since we can still Auto Jump even with FTL Control damaged.

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

If you xo me I can brig Apollo with a quorum card.

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

If you xo me I can brig Apollo with... umm... telekinetic mind rays! It'll be AWESOME!

Is this some kind of zen koan? "Ceci n'est pas une pipe" territory? Are you trying to blow my synthetic mind with logical paradox? Because that only works in bad sci fi shows.

I still think the Chief could be your other Cylon. Could a mere human be that good with machines? And I'm speaking from experience here. Yowza!

How's this for a plan, then: if I draw an XO, I'll repair FTL and XO Zarek. If I don't, I'll repair the AQ and try to brig Apollo.

If you XO me I'll walk down to the brig on my very own. Promise.

Isn't that generous of him? And now, a word of advice: Don't just tell women what they want to hear. Type it in all caps.

Since our running total is now 8 out of 7 and we are already passing, I play no cards into this check.

if I draw an XO, I'll repair FTL and XO Zarek. If I don't, I'll repair the AQ and try to brig Apollo.

This makes sense to me.
