Ack! Okay, I'll stop making imaginary allusions to imaginary peccadillos.

Neither of those are particularly lovely options, but I guess at this point in this journey, we get what we get. Up to the Pres, of course, since he bears the brunt of both sides of that penalty.

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

Drawing Purple sounds good.

Yeah, sorry, guys I can't really afford to ditch almost my whole hand. Like the Admiral says, Food is still in good shape, so despite painful memories of last game, I'm going to have to choose -2 Food.

I move to FTL Control and XO Adama with a G2. Hope you are fully recovered, sir, you're like a father to me, you know.

Tell me I might not be human, I'm human as they come, not hearing any music, not talking to invisible people, just muttering to myself, but everybody does that...

In dealing cards to Helo, the Leadership (Green) deck was depleted and reshuffled.

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

BSG

Hope you are fully recovered, sir, you're like a father to me, you know.

As long as I'm not like the father you never had, Helo. The fleet frowns upon the parentless, you know.

The Admiralissimo is free! (With every box of Weeties.) I shall:

Move (back) to the Press Room (discard an XO-1)
Play an LS-2 on the Destination Deck

We'll be jumping soon - in fact, I would suggest we jump as soon as we've found a good choice. Helo, if you could stand ready with your reroll I'd be much obliged.

The roll is a 3. The Admiralissimo squeaks by and Helo's manly arms are not needed.

Leave it on top. Not everything we want, but certainly good enough.

And it's time for your crisis! It involves fuel... Let's see how Helo handles Send Survey Team (15 PRB), shall we?

Argh. With my re-roll and an SP we'd have good odds on that die roll, but it's still a gamble.
