 Now? You're picking now of all times to do this?

Look, Sharon and I, we were happy. Sure, things weren't perfect but it was something. And we were working towards...

And now you want to step in and make things what they aren't. If we're going in this together, you have to know one thing about me: I don't abandon family, and that includes the crew of the Galactica.

Think it over, I know at least part of you sees how wrong your plan is.

/leaps onto!

[pickedherside]

I've told mine the same thing but she's not listening either. Apparently they don't know how to leave things alone.

/catches~!

[honeytrapped]

It's not fair, after all the work you've done-

[ he cuts himself off, staring at the ground ]

I don't like this, Sharon. Not with how she's acting. There's something we're not being told.

[pickedherside]

[She knows what he means. They're finally, finally getting the acceptance of the crew, not just her presence but her becoming an officer...]

I don't either, but if they're hiding something we'll find out. We're still in this together, whatever they throw at us.

[honeytrapped]

[ a long inhale. getting angry isn't going to do any good here ]

Yeah, you're right. But it'd be nice having someone on our side for once. I don't think these...whatever they're called, are going to be looking out for our best interests.

[pickedherside]

Probably not.

[But then that's not something new for her, really. Helo, sure, he's always had good people having his back.]

We're not the only ones in this situation, it looks like.

[Because there's Starbuck, Apollo...how many others?]

[honeytrapped]

I'm not sure if that's good or not. [ seeing people where he doesn't expect them has not always led to the smoothest course for Karl Agathon. time to change gears. Helo will be tenderly brushing back some of you hair now ]

How are you holding up so far?

[pickedherside]

There's strength in numbers.

[And at least at that point, she can count on those numbers being with her. They're all part of the same crew, after all. She may not have the 8's but she has the others.

The gesture from Helo draws a small smile to her face, and she leans in against him.]

Holding up fine though. She seems to think this is okay because time's going to stand still while we're gone.

[wontbeforgotten]

They never seem to pick the best of times to drag us off. But then, things rarely exactly go how we want anyway.

At least Sharon is somewhere around. So I'm sure wherever you end up, you'll get to see her. But they don't really listen to what we want, so things back on Galactica might have to be put on hold for you.

[honeytrapped]

[ he shakes his head. he's frustrated beyond words to be away from the Galactica, but it looks like some of her crew made it here ]

I don't suppose you have something to drink around here.

[wontbeforgotten]

I wish. But no, this girl isn't much the drinking type. Which is kind of ridiculous when she has someone like me around. I'm sure we could both use one though. Especially if yours has any plans?

[honeytrapped]

She's thinking about sending me to the afterlife. [ a snort ] Yeah, I already know how frakken ridiculous it sounds Starbuck.

How about you? Anyone wrongfully thinking they can handle Kara Thrace?

[wontbeforgotten]

The afterlife? [Raising an eyebrow at that, but. Well, Given this place and some of these 'games', it is probably not too surprising, though Starbuck is certain that Helo was very much alive last she saw him.]

Well, mine is tempted every now and then to consider putting me somewhere, but nothing has come of it so far besides these...meme things.

[arrowof]

Seems like some kind of sick joke, doesn't it? [ except no one is laughing. ]

[honeytrapped]

I think I'm missing the humor.

Though it seems like some of us made it here, wherever here is.

[arrowof]

You and me both.

I guess that's a small mercy. What's that saying? "Misery loves company"?

[honeytrapped]

Explains why we traveled in a group of 50,000.

Have you seen anyone else from the crew? Or any civilians?

[arrowof]

Just you, Starbuck, Laura Roslin, Leoben Conoy. We're few and far between, and I'm not sure that last one even really counts. [ so much for strength in numbers. ]

i had tooooo <3

[astrogate]

Do you really think they're going to listen to a frakken thing you say here?

8D I am glad!

[honeytrapped]

Honestly, no. But you know me, try try again.

[toasterprophet]

They play us like cards, like masks they as actors can pick up and discard at will. But we will outlast them. We are the voices in their heads, the faces in their dreams. And in the end we're all in the hands of God.

[ That was...possibly meant to be encouraging? Hard to tell, with Leoben. ]

But I wouldn't count on their mercy, or on them caring about your opinion.
