I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

BSG

That sounds reasonable.

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

BSG

yeah, I'm OK with option 1 as long as we remember to xo Admiral Helo before his next turn.

I should be able to help the Admiral recover from his sleep deprivation. Said help may involve ambrosia :)

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

BSG

Come on home, Vipers. I'm exhausted after that exciting dogfight. I choose Option 1 and chill out in the Sickbay.

Let's just hope this shot from the basestar doesn't hit Command or the Hanger Deck

No worries. What do you think we have Pegasus for? (Um, sorry, Gaeta. If the basestar hits you, I do have a re-roll.)

After the basestar adventure is over, I finally have a chance to get rid of these godsdamn Treachery cards that have been cluttering up my hand: I discard BL-1 and SD-2.

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

Thanks to the marvels of modern technology, this update is coming to you from the Men's final of the Australian Open. Help has proven that he is the caring Admiral. All the pilots get their ninny-byes, and Helo heads to Sickbay.

Next, the basestar opens fire.

Die roll = 7. Hit! But Helo uses his reroll:

Die roll = 1. Miss.

The jump track also advances. Finally, Helo discards 2 cards (as given above). That concludes Helo's turn. I'm sending Roslin's cards out now. President Roslin, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Gaeta, feel free to do a little dance and sing, "Nanny nanny boo boo," at the basestar.

That's true. I am the Admiral. Dance, Gaeta, or it's the airlock for you!
