Well, hello there, Dr. President, sir, nice to see you. Mind you don't get your sleeve dirty pressing that button. I don't care who does it, as long as someone does!

If Baltar'd been able to XO me, we would have gotten an extra action out of it, but I didn't have anything particularly useful I could have done with the second action anyway, so it's just as well. I just want to be out somewhere with a little breathing room in the sky, and pronto.

Oh, go ahead and jump, Galactica, I'll just rescue myself and get myself to where you're headed as if by magic. Don't worry about me.

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

BSG

You got it Helo, you pistol you! t does the finger-gun thing in Caprica's direction

Actually, we do in fact, have an SP in play.

Your Admiral is acting all large and in charge and has stepped up to the plate with a P3. Good thing because the roll is in fact a 5. With the SP, however, that makes 7 and a clean jump, Helo aside. (I'm sure they'll find you, really.)

Booyah! Who's your daddy? Well, obviously Starbuck is like the son I never had, but with this jump I'm extending my paternal duties to the rest of the fleet. So, um... clean your room, curfew's at 11, um, and I guess it's about time we had that talk. See, citizens of the fleet, when a man and a woman face total annihilation and need to repopulate the human race, they... Ah... Um. You know what? Here's some helpful printed material. I'm sure you'll work it out from there.

Damn. I wish Helo were back, he never seems to have any trouble with this stuff. Though I'm pretty sure that there should be more to it than "Get a load of these guns."

Anyway, back to the jump! Here are your orders, Mr Gaeta. Take us to this destination!

Puppy Planet
Admiral's Choice
Gain 2 Morale
OR
Gain 1 Food, lose 1 Morale

Aww, cute widdle puppies. Cute widdle tasty puppies. My choice is-- Sorry, Mr Gaeta? What do you mean that's not a real location? t sigh You are harshing on my mellow, you realise that? Ok, what else do you have for us?

Desolate Moon. Really? That's the best you could do? ...Does it have any puppies? ...Yes, I do know what desolate means. Well, you can announce it to the fleet. Get out there and tell everyone that you've cancelled puppy Christmas, I just don't care anymore. I need some alone time with the nukes.

BSG

Puppies are overrated, Desolate Moon seems more your style. And, since it's desolate, it means you cover 3 distance, although you burn through 3 fuel to do so.

And, maybe, just maybe, the cylons won't find you there.

Let's see what the next crisis brings, shall we?

ETA: Oh, it's Colonial Day (10YP) on Desolate Moon, isn't that special? Details have been sent.

Well, it's nice to have the chance to make up that lost morale. But I could only help the teensiest bit on this check, and we did just play a bunch of purples.

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

Hmm. I think I'll draw another Yellow for that one.

I can help with the check if that's the course we want to take. I'll tell you how much once I get my card draw.
