*Sorta hangs back a bit, espying CallMeSerenity riding the Pifflepony across dandelion strewn meadows, wings softly rising and falling in half time beats to the pony's canter rythym.*

Hmmm. Did swear off the kidnapping routine. Still 'n all, that was when evil grew amongst the crew, and that's been all reconciled like. And, let's take a logical approach here, CMS is no kid, and she appears to be wide awake....

*Sets to fetching satiny bondage goodies, various oils.*

*Stuff found, idly tickles Mai's feets, and hopes she understands it's all just play.*

Pauses to watch some more. Cuz, why hurry?

*walks onto the stage, from his meditations, black t-shirt, dark blue jeans, black boots. Picks up the microphone from the stand, and with no accolade begins to sing. A guitar and drums playing from nowehere.*


The world was on fire and no one could save me but you
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do
I'd never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you
I'd never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you

No I don't wanna fall in love (this girl is only gonna break your heart)
No I don't wanna fall in love (this girl is only gonna break your heart)
With you
With you (this girl is only gonna break your heart)

What a wicked game you played to make me feel this way
what a wicked thing to do to let me dream of you
what a wicked thing to say you never felt this way
what a wicked thing to do to make me dream of you

And I don't wanna fall in love (this girl is only gonna break your heart)
No I don't wanna fall in love (this girl is only gonna break your heart)
With you

The world was on fire and no one could save me but you
It's strange what desire will make foolish people do
I'd never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you
I'd never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you

No I don't wanna fall in love (this girl is only gonna break your heart)
No I don't wanna fall in love (this girl is only gonna break your heart)
With you (this girl is only gonna break your heart)
With you (this girl is only gonna break your heart)

No I... (this girl is only gonna break your heart)
(This girl is only gonna break your heart)

Nobody loves no one

*his last song fades into silence. He holds out his hand, an unmarked person walks up and hands him his electric guitar.*

Mal, Inara, that was for you. This...

*lights flash on over several individuals. On drums, in all white, TheWhiteJedi. On lead guitar, TheDarkJedi, on bass guitar is a man in a deep indigo cloak and robes with a white mask covering his entire face who, according to the program, is named Janus. On the mixing table is a half-elf with long black hair, bright blue eyes and matching shirt, the rest in black, named Turin Swift.*

This is for you, River.


Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real

There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
This lack of self control I fear is never ending
Controlling

I can't seem
To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence I'm convinced that there's just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before
So insecure

Chorus

Discomfort, endlessly has pulled itself upon me
Distracting, reacting
Against my will I stand beside my own reflection
It's haunting how I can't seem...

To find myself again
My walls are closing in
(Without a sense of confidence I'm convinced that there's just too much pressure to take)
I've felt this way before
So insecure

Chorus (Repeat until end)

There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
This lack of self control I fear is never ending
Controlling (Whispered during chorus)

*leans heavily against the stage*

Well Static, what do we do now? Stand 10 feet apart and call her, see which one she runs to first? Rock, paper, scissors? Eeny Meeny Miney Mo?

*picks up a guitar and starts gently strumming*

I agree with Doc Brown, there are two great mysteries in the universe; Why and Women. I think I've got a better idea about the first one.

*starting to pick out a tune, not singing on stage, nor even to anyone nearby, just singing*

Well I heard there was a secret chord
that David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do ya?
Well it goes like this:
The fourth, the fifth, the minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah

Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya
And She tied you to her kitchen chair
And She broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah

Well Baby I've been here before
I´ve seen this room, and I've walked this floor,
You know, I used to live alone before I knew you
And I've seen your flag on the marble arch
And Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah

Well there was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show that to me do ya
But remember when I moved in you
And the holy dove was moving too
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah

Maybe there is a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot at somebody who outdrew ya
And it's not a cry that you can hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah

*claps after Simon's song.*

Yeah! I love that song!!

*takes the guitar from him and climbs up onstage. She strums a few experimental chords,waves at everyone a bit nervously, and then she sings.*


You want to dance with the angels?
Then embroider me with gold, and I will fly with the angels,
And you can dance with me.
Sing with the angels?
Then show me a song, and I will strum with the angels,
And you can sing with me.
But you want to fall fashionably in love with a woman,
In love with a life you’ll adore, in love with a woman you’ll adore.
Under my wings, you’ll start to ask yourself,
Under my wings, you’ll learn to fly.
Under my wings, you’ll come to understand how to hold on -
If you want to.
Or you can dream of the frog legs sitting in the church
In the glass, in the sand where your foot steps.
Or you can dream of the angels in the air-
Don’t you see me?
I float in skies, in your eyes, in your eyes.
You want to dance with the angels?
Then embroider me with gold, and I will fly with the angels,
And you can dance with me.
Under my wings, you’ll start to look for me.
Under my wings, you’ll want to cry sometimes.
Under my wings, you’ll find someone to hold onto - if you want to.
You want to dance with the angels?
Then embroider me with gold, and I will fly with the angels,
And you can dance with me.

Needleseye steps up. Doesn't matter where the music comes from, it just begins... star jasmine curls up and around the stage platform and vicinity.
and she sings...

Please could you stay awhile to share my grief
For its such a lovely day
To have to always feel this way
And the time that I will suffer less
Is when I never have to wake

Wandering stars, for whom it is reserved
The blackness of darkness forever
Wandering stars, for whom it is reserved
The blackness of darkness forever

Those who have seen the needles eye, now tread
Like a husk, from which all that was, now has fled
And the masks, that the monsters wear
To feed, upon their prey

Wandering stars, for whom it is reserved
The blackness of darkness forever
Wandering stars, for whom it is reserved
The blackness of darkness forever

Doubled up inside
Take awhile to shed my grief
Always doubled up inside
Taunted, cruel.... ...

Wandering stars, for whom it is reserved
The blackness of darkness forever
Wandering stars, for whom it is reserved
The blackness of darkness forever


Those will be transfixed that listened too closely,
then shake their heads releasing the siren's spell.
Sweet fragrance lingers in the air.

**jake7 steps up to the mike.**

*clears throat (even though her vocal coach yells at her when she does)*

Here's one for Mal and Inara:

*Moderate tempo rock song*

Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na

If you could feel what I feel
If I could make you see
If you could need like I need
I'd be the air that you breathe

You go straight to my head as I lie in my bed
I just can't win
I can't help the state I'm in
It's only love so why is falling in it
The one thing that you can't do
It's only love then why am I hurting from it
It's only love if you're hurting too

Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na

If you could share my wildest thoughts
Meet me in my mind
If you could want the way that I want
You'd want me all the time
You go straight to my head when I lie in my bed
I just can't win
I can't stop the state I'm in

It's only love so why is falling in it
The one thing that you can't do
It's only love then why am I hurting from it
It's only love if you're hurting too

Every dream I dream has got you in
And every minute with you means everything
I wanna take you there where you've never been
In my dreams

You go straight to my head as I lie in my bed
I just can't win
I can't help the state I'm in
It's only love so why is falling in it
The one thing that you can't do
It's only love so why am I hurting from it
It's only love if you're hurting too
Na na na na na na na na na
It's only love if you're hurting too
Na na na na na na na na na
It's only love if you're hurting too

*Slides down off the top of the SereniTREE, and gently lands on his feet. Wanders over to the stage just as Jake7 finishes her song.*

*Claps*

"Two by two, hands of blue."
"We'll take care of each other. I'll knit!"

Summer Glau to me - "You are so photogenic."

Me -

Bride2 walks into the Serenitree's water park and looks up at Jazaf, who's in the middle of the large floating globe of breathable liquid. She crosses her arms and waits for a time. Then she grumbles and sits down crosslegged on the floor. She puts her sheathed pair of katanas next to her, breathes deep, and tries to mediate. This lasts about a minute.

"Stupid freakin' gorram !!"

She stands and cups her hands around her mouth. "Hey, Mystery Man! What're ya doin' up there? Bein' all mysterious or somethin'?"
