Today we're jumping up one episode to "The Passage"
The entire fleet is cranky and hungry from strict food rationing. Athena has found the algae planet and in order to get there the fleet has to travel through the radiation filled gas cloud. Tensions are high, plans need to be made, and since it's been crisis after crisis with the fleet and fighter squadron the pilots still haven't been able to figure out where they stand. Here's a handy episode rundown courtesy of Battlestar Wiki if you need specifics.
But first to catch you up....
Previously on the NT RPG:
We started the story at the end of UB and Lee and Kara remained laying in the boxing ring after everyone had gone. The knuckledraggers were ordered by Tigh to get the hanger deck back into shape. Helo came along and saved the day by getting the pilots up and off the deck.
Lee went on his own to the head to shower and clear his mind of all that had transpired at the dance. Helo had another plan and dropped Starbuck right back into his lap by delivering her over his shoulder to the head. The crew was sure to start gossiping so Starbuck cleared the room and she and Lee got down to talking about the current state of their relationship. Lee won’t cheat and tells Kara he wants more, Kara admits leaving him in the field and marrying Anders was a mistake and lets it slip that there is more to her abduction on New Caprica. Lee pushes and Kara agrees to talk to him about Leoben and what happened during the occupation
Meanwhile, Roslin sits with Adama in Sickbay while he’s getting patched up from his round with the Chief. Cottle reprimands the old man and orders him off duty for 24 hrs. The President escorts the Admiral back to his quarters and along the way they run into Col. Tigh who lets the cat out of the bag about Starbuck and Apollo’s night on New Caprica. Adama is, of course, dumbfounded. Once in Bill’s quarters Laura tells him that Kara would look to the stars at night and see Pegasus passing and that now she understood that all those months on New Caprica, Kara was missing Lee.
Chief and Cally were trying to sort out the crew chatter about the Dance and find out if the deck gang was doing their jobs or gossiping. Helo and Athena discuss their friends and hope that none of them get hurt in the mess. Sleep eludes Karl and he makes his way to the Gym where Starbuck is already going at the punching bag, the two talk and Kara confides in Helo about her situation with Sam and Lee. He reminds her that she deserves to be happy.
Kat’s avoiding all the drama by heading to the firing range and in walks Sam Anders. Sam knows he’s eventually going to have to face his wife but refuses to be the one to run after her. Kat and Sam both shoot off a few rounds and Kat feels bad for the man as she has witnessed what a Starbuck dressing down does to a nugget, she invites him for a drink.
After his conversation about New Caprica with Kara in the ready room, Lee makes a decision that no matter what happens he’s leaving Dee. He makes his way back to his quarters and begins to pack when Dee walks in. Kara exhausted from the dance and talking, returns to the head to grab a shower before her lunch date with Apollo.
People all over Galactica know that things have changed and everyone wonders what will happen next…

thegreenkitty is going to be offline for awhile so if anyone is interested in picking up Cottle let me know! Until we can get someone to play and move him around any use of Cottle has to be in Sickbay. So if you're character ends up there you can mod him for the purpose of your scene. Baltar also comes into play shortly so anyone interested in playing the crazy mad scientist he's also open for business as well as Head!Six.

On Thursday's RPG post we will jump another episode to the "Eye of Jupiter" which will run through the end of the week. Please let me know if your character will be unable to check in any of those days and if so, we'll try and work something out.

Date: 2010-11-29 06:42 am (UTC)His gaze falls on the small nightstand next to his bed. There's a quarter of a rations bar there. It's tempting to eat it...but Sharon is about to get off patrol, and it's for her.
He grits his teeth, and starts trying to remember the stats for all the colonies' pyramid teams...

Date: 2010-11-29 03:14 pm (UTC)It was hard to bitterly latch onto the sense of betrayal over what he knew was coming when everything was in perspective. He'd been far from perfect for Kara, didn't know down from up when he was with her cause he'd never loved anybody so relentlessly, but when his thoughts were more clear like this, it just seemed wrong for either of them to be wasting their time in this sad imitation of a marriage. Kara had been losing people her entire life, not just during the war, and if there was a place in her he just couldn't fill like Lee Adama could, there was no use trying to hold on.
Re: HANGER DECK
Date: 2010-11-29 04:24 pm (UTC)Her fingers trailed over the smooth skin of the Raptor as her mind roiled. She swallowed hard. So much of her life hung in the balance now. So frakking much.
Re: MEMORIAL HALLWAY
Date: 2010-11-29 05:03 pm (UTC)She rounded the corner and, for a moment, just watched Sam standing there among the photographs and notes and candles. Her husband. Not for much longer, though. A small part of her wanted to turn and leave before he could see her. Why the frak did this bother her so much? When she was younger, always leave first had been one of her main rules of a relationship. Of course, that was before Zak. You think she'd have learned her lesson after that. Then again, she was pretty damned sure she'd never get married after Zak, and look how that turned out.
Kara dug her hands into her pockets as she strode up to him. She'd made a vow to the gods to loves this man until death. Not the first time she'd lied by a long shot, but never to the gods before. Whatever. She'd had enough sins under her belt, what was one more?

Date: 2010-11-29 06:30 pm (UTC)"You know, I always look at these, and wonder just how embarrassed these people would be by these pictures. Some of them are really...really bad." The conversational comment wasn't to stall or distract or put on any airs; he used to do this all the time down on New Caprica when he could tell Kara's head was somewhere up in the stars instead of close to him, as if to give her the space to pretend things were fine, but now it was almost an imitation of that just for old time's sake. He didn't look at her to see the little grimace of a smile she was probably wearing, but then he had to look up at her and scoff uncomfortably, and say, "Should we do this here or somewhere else?"

Date: 2010-11-29 06:52 pm (UTC)"Is there any good place to end a marriage, Sammy?" she asked. Sure, it wasn't the lightest way to put it, but no point in mincing words at this point. Maybe the memorial hall wasn't the worst place in the world. It was, after all, meant for dead things.
Re: HANGER DECK
Date: 2010-11-29 07:50 pm (UTC)Chief felt bad for his people, They had lots of thankless labor to perform to keep these deteriorating birds in the air. If his people didn't do their jobs, pilots couldn't do their jobs and people can die.
He needed to kick his people's collective ass even if they hated him a little bit for it. If they are pissed at him, they can forget how hungry they are for alittle while.
"Come on can we at least look like we're working! We need to get the next CAP ready to launch, and Hotdog's viper still isn't ready. Let's move!" Chief starts shouting to his people. "Hey back to work!" He scowled to one specialist who seem to just be lounging "I was just taking a 5 minute break, Chief" Chief got in his face and told him "You can take a break when the CAP is off and maintenance is done on all these birds! If I catch you taking another break before then, my foot will be squarely up your ass, and you're next shift will be double!"
Chief stomped off and continued his assault on his crew, pushing them to work harder. He saw a few angry looks, but ignored them. A good kick in the ass is what they needed right now to refocus.

Date: 2010-11-29 11:02 pm (UTC)"Hey Cally, have you heard about Apollo? Seems he's bunking with his pilots these days. Haven't had a chance to ask him about it, but word is Lee and Dee are separated."
