no_takebacksThe posting rules are simple.
Some people won't be around until later tonight so try to remember that! Our Starbuck might be modded a bit by Tara until Ray gets home so that we can keep pilots in motion. To get the game going I'm going to post as a deckhand (so excuse the poor writing skills please)
We start our game at the very end of UB. Starbuck and Apollo are laying bloodied and battered on the mat of the boxing ring. Slowly the crowd starts to thin out and all the crew can talk about is Maj. Adama and Capt. Thrace. The whispers and theories about what happened so long ago on New Caprica to cause their rift echo off the bulkheads. Finally Col. Tigh steps out of the ring and orders everyone but the knuckledraggers off the deck and for them to get it back to combat ready status. It’s 15 minutes later, the bleachers are stacked, tables are stowed and the only thing left to dismantle is the ring but Starbuck and Apollo are still laying in it. The deck gang is trying to decide who is going to be the one to say something to them….
ETA: Rooms are added, if there is any place you specifically want to work from let me know. I'm adding an OOC comment at the end so put all your comments, needs or questions there....i figure its best to have it all in one place.
EDIT 11:30PM EST: Hey everyone! Thanks so much for joining in, we've started it a bit and kind of established where everyone is. We've been discussing keeping this going for a few days and posting jumps ahead and what not in the coming days. Please continue to add anything into this thread, make your character interact in the established places or if you want to start a new "room" just let me know. Tomorrow there will be a post about continuing the story. Thanks again for all your patience while we figure it out, I hope you enjoy playing and reading!
- You can only post reactions and dialog for your chraracter
- Give others a chance to respond (If it takes too long, I'll try and jump in and move things along w/out trying to do too much altering to the character)

Re: AGATHON FAMILY LIVING QUARTERS

Re: AGATHON FAMILY LIVING QUARTERS
Date: 2010-11-27 01:44 am (UTC)He knew he was playing with fire, particularly with Lee. Kara, he could deal with. Her anger was always fully displayed, white hot and quick burning. She would hit and cuss and generally kick his ass. Helo was more concerned about Lee. His anger was slow burning and venomous, infinitely more dangerous.
He took a real risk throwing those two back together again. But they needed to work whatever it was out.
Faintly, in the back of his mind reminded him of Dee and Sam, who were also his friends.
Frak.

Athena scootched over towards the wall allowing her husband a little space. She shook her head and smiled at her husband.
"You know The worst mistake Lee ever did was marry Dee when his feelings ran that deep. I would love to know what made Kara run off and Marry Sam for that matter."
She looked her husband who was watching her, she took his hand in hers and squeezed it.
"Makes our lives look so much more simple."
Re: AGATHON FAMILY LIVING QUARTERS
Date: 2010-11-27 02:33 am (UTC)"Dee is a good person, Sharon. Exceptional even," he felt the need to defend his friend. He knew a little bit about not being able to help the fact that the person you fell in love with had baggage. "And Sam's good for Kara."
He sighed. "Or at least he was."
He scrubbed his hand over his face. This was way too complicated. "Kara and Lee have things to work out though. They need each other. They can't change what happpened in the past, whatever it was. But they need to stop hurting themselves so they can stop hurting everyone else."
He looked back at his wife, thankful that somehow, they were the least disfunctional couple on the ship.
He kissed her lightly. "I'm glad you're on my side."
Re: AGATHON FAMILY LIVING QUARTERS
Date: 2010-11-27 02:44 am (UTC)"Look I like Dee. She's a great person. But, you didn't see her face. Sam just walked out. There is more going on there Karl. Dee and Sam are going to get hurt."

Athena removed her tanks until she was left in just her bra, pants followed shortly after, she passed both to her husband and drew the covers up.
"Are you going to lay there all night - there's what 8 hours til our shift - sleep could be an idea."
Re: AGATHON FAMILY LIVING QUARTERS - extended version since my browser hates me.
Date: 2010-11-27 06:34 am (UTC)He smiled at her, and kissed her forehead. "Sleep sounds amazing. But if I don't shower right now, you're going to kick me out bed."
Re: AGATHON FAMILY LIVING QUARTERS - extended version since my browser hates me.
Date: 2010-11-27 07:36 am (UTC)"If I remember rightly you stank a whole lot worse on Caprica and somehow I put up with you then," her smile deepened as she scootched across the bed and swatted Helo on the rear. "Just remember where your quarters are."
She moved back into her bed and looked at her husband with an innocent smile and laid down in the bed.
Re: AGATHON FAMILY LIVING QUARTERS--END OF THE DAY
Date: 2010-11-27 08:00 am (UTC)Stepping in, he gave a sigh of relief.
Tomorrow would most likely be another heavy day, and he was due to meet Lee in the gym at 0800 before his shift.
Stepping back out of the shower and quickly drying off, he glanced back at Sharon, who was now sleeping in their bed. He was so grateful to have her in his life, it made his heart hurt. So many had lost so much...he was lucky.
He slid into bed beside her, wrapping his arms around her and pulling her flush against him, letting himself relax and sleep to claim him.
Re: AGATHON FAMILY LIVING QUARTERS--BEGINNING OF A NEW DAY
Date: 2010-11-27 11:13 pm (UTC)Rolling out of the bed she took a brief smell of her self and wondered also how Helo hadn't kicked her out of bed. The night before however, she was tired that her only thought had been for her bed. She walked over to the head attached to their quarters.
Picking up some shampoo and soap she quickly divested herself of clothes and quickly moving through her wash routine her hair was cleaned and body soaped down. A quick perfunctory clean up - but one she was sure Helo might appreciate. She placed her soap and shampoo in the requisite holder and grabbed a towel and toweled herself off.
Moving back into their quarters she picked up clean undergarments and uniform and dressed quickly before realizing that she wanted to go over the systems checks on her raptor that she had done the day before, she wasn't certain but something had looked iffy. Quickly she remade the bed and tidied up quarters before she moved to the hatch, took a brief cursory look at the quarters and left, for the Hangar Deck once more .
