Apollo enters the room just as Starbuck ups the ante.

"Feeling confident?" Dee asks, and Starbuck smirks.

"You betcha." She grins and touches her tongue to her upper lip.

"I hope you're not flirting with me, Starbuck," laughs Dualla. "I've got this boyfriend, you know, he's good friends with the President -"

There's a sudden silence as Dualla realises what she's said, and she throws her bet into the middle. "I'll see you and raise you," she says softly over the words that remain unspoken.

"I'm out," Gaeta says loudly, and drops his cards. "Care to take my place, Captain?" he says towards the door, the first indication that anyone in the room has noticed his presence. Apollo shrugs and slides into Gaeta's vacated chair.

"Sure," he says, and Starbuck deals him in.

[explanation] what is a tig?

bantha_fodder: (not a good fight - xsomethingbluex)
Don't answer that question! I already know the answer! But I am going to explain, as there appears to be heaps of people on my flist who don't know what a tig is.

Yesterday, I asked if anyone wanted to tig BSG with me. Responses were enthusiastic, but unsure.

TIG: the act of taking turns writing. Usually there's just the two of you (because, let's face it, any more and it'd be a round robin). Tigging (the term) started off in the LotRPS fandom, and sort of spread out.

[livejournal.com profile] tig_meh is a (dying) tig community,

I am currently tigging SVU over here, and as you can see, it's pretty unstructured. We started with a random situation that I just typed and posted, and Sloane answers as she feels like it, and we take turns.

This is a post where [livejournal.com profile] copperbadge also wonders what a tig is. Uhm, a lot of people who answer Sam's post actually have no idea, but some of them do.

ANYWAY, I'm going to give you all a chance to read this, and ask any questions you still have about tigging (of which I suspect there will be a few, as I have a habit of explaining things as clear as mud). And then tomorrow at some point, I'm going to contact anyone who is still interested, and see what happens.

TIGGING is FUN. Just so you know.

svu tig

Olivia scribbles on the notepad in front of her. Elliot peers across the desk, but the words she writes are illegible. He hopes she does not expect him to decipher them. She taps her pen on the edge of the paper, and fine inkblots spray out of the nib, but she does not notice, so intent is she on her words. Elliot doubts she really sees them.

He reaches across and swipes the last cream donut, and she notices that.

"Hey!" she says. "That's mine!"

"Olivia, I'm just looking out for you." He grins and takes a bite of the donut. He continues, mouth full: "you've had two already this morning. You need to watch your weight, you know."

She throws her pen at him.

Any retort she may have made is drowned out by Munch and Fin entering the squad room.

"You, my friend, are a moron," announces Munch.
