Well...if Destiny's Shadow in joining up with the TREE later, Jack and I could use some more supplies. Plus we have "business" on Boros.

*It's been a couple weeks since Soul's death. Serenity has spent most of that time in her room, only coming out when absolutely necessary and barely talking to anyone.*

*Now, it's late at night, most of the crew is sound asleep.*

*Serenity emerges from her room and creeps downstairs. She heads into the kitchen.*

*She is STARVING, having hardly eaten anything since, well, she doesn't like to think about it. But now she's hungry. She finds a bag of chips and munches those while she raids the fridge. She pulls out pie, sandwiches, a hunk of cheese, pickles. She pops her head in the freezer and finds a tub of chocolate ice cream. She grabs a big spoon and digs into that, adding whipped cream and m&Ms right to the container.*

*Dale the ferret wanders in. She picks him up and sets him on the table and feeds him the greens from the celery she dips in her peanut butter. *

*Finally, sated, she finishes off the last of her glass of milk, puts her head down on the table, and falls asleep, leaving the remains of the ice cream to melt on the counter.*

*PR is snoozing in the tent he has since pitched in the observatory lounge, where he now keeps most of his stuff.*

Safe and Jack sit and wait while a crowd of people mill in and out of Destiny's Shadow.

Jack abruptly stops drumming his fingers and slams his fist down on his knee. "I've had enough gorram waitin', Safe! Can't you just fly this ship outta here NOW??"

"Jack, it ain't my ship and I can do nothing to hurry this up. Our business will just have to wait."

A gleam of an idea lights up Jacks eyes. "Why don't we just "borrow" a shuttle? We can be to Boros and back before this circus finally becomes organized. No one will be the wiser..."

On the bridge, Static watches his consoles intently as the TREE slowly pulls the Admiral Nelson into the docking bay. Static notices with a frown that there's no activity visible at all through the viewports. Without a word, he exits the cockpit and makes his way down to the docking bay.

TheRealMe follows Static to the hanger where the Admiral Nelson just docked. Uh, Static? Our sensors don't detect any....

Why do I have the feeling she's going to turn into a butterfly?

Either that or she's preggers.

Needleseye finding no interest in sleep, follows the scents in the air, chocolate? She walks into the silent kitchen and takes a seat at the counter across from Serenity as she snoozes. A round bellied ferret is nuzzled about and under her arm. Needleseye looks to one side of the room and then the other. She watches Serenity who rests peacefully after an ice cream binge.
hmm.
She spies a can of whip cream,
shakes it vigorously...
glances about the room again...

then squirts a huge blob in her mouth puffing out her cheeks. Mmm! she giggles to herself, and sets down the can then resumes her usual calm countenance. She tilts her head toward Serenity, closes her eyes and begins to hum faintly for a while.

After there is nothing but the sound of the SereniTree's engines own comforting hum against the quiet of the surroundings.
The kitchen lights begin to dim from the stillness.

i had true love
i made it die
i pushed her away
she said please stay
burning every bridge that i cross
to find some beautiful place to get lost
