Quote:
At Bride6’s obvious delight at having grenades, Jack grins and moves his chair closer to hers.
When CastIronJack moves closer, Bride6 smiles and starts to flirt with him, all the while waving a grenade about in her hand as she chats. Bride7 rolls her eyes, snatches the grenade, and returns it to the pack. Bride6 pouts.
Quote:
“Citzen here was trying to offer us a job…” Safe starts, turning his attention to Bride7.
“Hold on a second. You’re from the Tree right? How much do you know about Butterfly girl?”
Both Brides look at Safe blankly.
“Ummm.. Serenity. How well do you know Serenity?”
“She’s connected to this somehow…”
“How do you figure?” Bride7 says, clearly bored with the direction of the conversation.
Bride6 smiles. “Oh, I know Serenity pretty well. We were there when she came aboard the Sereni-Tree at Black Diamond. She’s nice. She’s pretty. She made a garden in the cargo bay. And she has pretty wings. But they aren’t butterfly wings. They’re angel wings. Why do you think they are talking about her, and not somebody else?”
Quote:
“From what I can gather, there’s bad blood between her and Scar man.”
“So the way I see it, the Alliance didn’t blow up our shuttle. Why would they? There’s nothing for them to gain from it. Scar man on the other hand, would be looking to make a statement. He seemed to know the shuttle ‘cause he was waiting for us when we arrived, but we were not who he was expecting. He was waiting for Serenity. We embarrassed him then ditched him.”
Bride6 is suddenly surprised. “Somebody blew up the General Grant? But.. But.. It was part of a set!”

*Ath finally recovers from seeing Soul alive again, somehow. Seeing how Soul is looking at Serenity, Ath decides to forgo the hug, and the plethora of questions, and heads back into the kitchen, leaving them to their reunion.
As he gets back to the kitchen, Ath spies Kelly talking to NoSkills.*
"Oh, just talk to her, you loser", Ath tells himself. "And stop talking to yourself!"
*Gathering his courage, Ath walks up to KellyofLuthien and finally introduces himself properly.*
"Hello, Kelly. I'm sorry I didn't get to introduce myself properly earlier. My name is Ath. It's a pleasure to meet you."
"Invader's blood marches through my veins like giant radioactive rubber pants. The pants command me! Do not ignore my veins!"

Oops. Sorry about that. *Grabs a bottle from the bar* Here let me get you a refill.

One. Any more than that and you may not be able to keep your mind clear of everyone's thoughts.
Quote:*PR frowns at Kelly and then blinks and looks away.*
KOL said:
*Kelly frowns slightly. Something doesn't feel right. She notes the obvious worry on TRM's face as he walks away and decides maybe her questions are best left for later....then she wonders if PR just heard everything she thought.*
*PR sips of his drink before thinkin an unnerving thought himself. He looks at his drink with concern before putting it down.* I'm not so sure I should be drinking this....in my condition. *PR gets up and leaves the room, leaving a wake of blank faces.*
*He enters the infirmary where he finds SimonWho and MontanaGirl.*
Doc, we need to talk.
SW: Ah yes, I wondered how long it would be before you would turn up. Come in young man, take a seat.
*PR thanks the doc and sits down.*
SW: Now, how may I help you? I take it this is about your father?
PR: Not exactly. I think I'M pregnant!
SW: *Stare. Blink.* What?
*MG bursts out laughing.*
PR: Well, the other day...Bluefishie and I were having a long talk about babies...and menstrual cycles and I've just realised. I'm late, doc! LATE! I'm like...17 YEARS LATE!!!!!

The door opens and Flechette pokes her head in. “Mr. Citizen, Ami just got back with them clothes you were wantin’.” The door opens wider to reveal Ami; arm’s piled high with clothes.
“Alliance is going door to door asking questions” Ami says “They were at the antique book store up the street, you know, Versereaders.” Ami says to Flechette. “Nice lady what runs that place, good stuff there too.”
Flechette waves her hand at Ami “Not now Ami, we’ve got more ‘portant things to worry about.” She turns to Safe “I over heard you talking about a girl with angel wings. Would that be Serenity?”
“She was here a spell ago. Part of a teraforming team. Spent a lot of time here.” Flechette turns to Citizen, “Find the boy-whore, Needy. She spent more time than what’s natural with him. He’ll know more ‘bout her. Plus, he’s got connections. His line of “work” affords him that pleasure.” Flechette rolls her eyes “Now get dressed and git movin’. You don’t have much time.”
Ami hands out the clothes. Everything showed signs that it was meticulously chosen for each person. Ami blushes and smiles every time Safe looks over at her.
Safe catches himself grinning. He likes these women. Flechette has that no nonsense pioneer spirit that he finds engaging and Ami… Safe shakes his head. He can’t afford to let himself go there, not now…
Safeat2nd, Chief Handyman of Destiny

*Soul & Serenity leave the infirmary*
Well, Doc doesn't seem to be too worried, so I guess we're both okay.
Now what do we do?
You want to hear about all that's happened in the last 3 months?

"Well, you might be fine, but..." Soul looks back over his shoulder at the infirmary. "Doc always worries me when he babbles under his breath like that."
He turns back to Serenity.

Soul shrugs. "I think I need to go find a book about parenting, 'cause I don't know the first thing about it."
They keep walking.

Soul nods. "Sure. It seems like I've missed quite a bit."
She smiles at him, and they begin to talk.

Soul (after a long pause): "Yeah. Because I have one."

Uh, odd question, I know. I only asked because I like bananas and that flask held banana schnapps. You seemed to like it alright...at least I hope you did.
Did you?
*shut up, shut up! just stop talking, you're making a fool of yourself. as usual! why is it that your eloquent tongue is so easily tied, now? Elemdee sighs*
Uh, so...what do you do for fun here? I could use a little down-time activity. And I could use some company. Join me?

*KellyofLuthien is pondering the complexities of the Sereni-Tree when Ath steps up to her and introduces himself. She is intrigued by the way he can only meet her eyes with his for the briefest moment in time. Smiling gently, Kelly puts her hand on his arm.*
"Once again, the pleasure is all mine, Ath. Would you like to sit down? You still look a little pale."
*Ath nods and leads her to some chairs and they both take a seat. Kelly nibbles on some Elven bread as she watches him. She can tell he is nervous by his shy smile and the tense way he holds his wings. Hey, wait a minute!*
"Ath, how come your wings have not fallen off like mine have?"

Um, from the hysterical prespective uv dis fine Tree-thingy, I give ya my (vain)glorious reign as a omnimpotent starclustah thang. Wherein belch er, upon Rukus (or wazzit the ski reezort?)
