Bullets n' Prayers - Part 2

Monday, November 1, 2010

Part 2 of “Bullets n’ Prayers” follows below. Went with my spouse to the Texas Renesants Festival yesterday (10-31) and had a great time. Wore my “ Browncoat-Aim to Misbehave” shirt to show my loyalty to the browncoat cause and support Firefly and Joss…..it was fun, and heard plenty of music that reminder me of the music from the series. Hope everyone’s Halloween went well….BPZ, out.

Bullets n’ Prayers

Part -2 Disappeared:

*********************************************************************************

The Setup,

Samuel J. Cobb ( aka Jayne Cobb) has just returned to “ The Temple on the Mound” church of worship in the township of Marshal, on the planet of Greenleaf. His part of a plan, conceived by Mal, was to lure the townsfolk into a sense of community and trust. Now that they have a holy man in their vicinity who can save their souls they have become overwhelmingly hospitable.

Ironic wasn’t it, that Jayne has become a savior……if only for a short time, and was being looked upon as a portal to the Most Divine? It brought back deja vu of the time he spent with the mudders.

Jayne usually would find a situation such as this hil-larry-ous, if he weren’t involved himself. But being the Go-To man, while having it’s perks, also has it’s responsibilities. Those he weren’t so happy with.

Although he doesn’t mind being a low-down dirty deceiver, Jayne does have a moral code. He doesn’t like deceiving the unfortunate….or the people he deems as being less fortunate than himself.

All that aside, he does have a job to do, and Mal, being less trusting of Jayne when it comes to the finer-details of his plans, has not included the big mercenary in on everything.

All Jayne knows is that he’s supposed to be a preacher, which will help in the final outcome to Malcolm Reynolds plan…….we’ll see if things go smooth?

Part -2 Disappeared:

*********************************************************************************

Jayne Cobb, or Samuel J. Cobb as he was known in the Township of Marshal, was making a list of items he might need for his stay here as the reverend of Marshal county.

“ Eggs, milk……although I’d prefer mudders milk,” He thought, “ though, regular milk will suffices as needed to continue my façade as Reverend Cobb until the job‘s over……..” The big merc said aloud, then continued….

“ Steak, potatoes, and……” Jayne looked around the living quarters of the church, “

Last line was quite awesome and Jayne speaking to God... very interesting. His reaction to having to marry the couple is just on point for him. I am really liking this tale, BPZ!!

Good Monday morning to ya Angelle! Hope you and the family had a great Halloween weekend.

I had a really good time as can be witnessed by the mangling of the word “Renaissance” in my pre-story notes up above. My heads still paying the price…..lol.

Anyhoo, glad that your staying with me for the “Bullets n’ Prayers” ride. Jayne, although I don’t think would make a good preacher, does have a good heart. Adam Baldwin played the role to perfection!

Looking for more “ Bouncing Ball” from you & Jane0904.….? Hope for more adventures soon!


Thanks for post’n up….see ya, BPZ

I did laugh at Jayne getting worried that every day he is getting more like Shepherd Book. I can see the cloth rubbing off on him and can't wait to see how he handles the wedding. Amused too that Vogg and Mal have planned an alternative way of making him disappear to the one Badger no doubt has in mind. Ali D :~)
