"It seems we have new traveler aboard, good buddy. Go check it out will you?" He asked, petting his feline companion.

*surprised by the company he looks up*

Oh hey, Nell. Wow you're good. Haven't been here long and you've already changed your hair. It looks great. Interesting bunch of folk here. Can hardly believe the recent events.

You looked concerned, what's on your mind?..........

ummmm....Marillion

“Look, I don’t have any idea how we might get in touch with this Needy, I don’t have those sorts of contacts.” He said stopping and turning. There was silence for a few moments as the group stared at him. Citizen slumped his shoulders.
“Okay” He said finally. “This way.” He started leading them off into a fork in the tunnels.

Before long they came across a large metal door, that looked like it could withstand a Nuclear explosion, and had several large ‘danger: high voltage’ signs plastered across its surface. Citizen began unlocking various locks with keys and swipe cards.
“Just need to pick-up a few things first.” He said as a retinal scanner folded out of the wall. The door finally hissed open as he continued. “Can never be too careful these days.” He shrugged.
Citizen stepped through the entrance and let the group fan in behind him.
“Welcome,” he said as Bride7 began to have what can only be described as a religious experience. “to my Armoury.”

Bride6 makes happy cooing noises and claps her hands together. Then she dashes in, like a child on Christmas morning running to her presents. "Oh, I'll have one of these, and one of those, and this is always useful..."

Bride7 turns to Citizen. "Whoa! Good armory!"

Continuing Deuce’s adventure from earlier that day:

Deuce stood there in a fighting stance, naked, as she faced the stranger. Embarrassment or anger or both had flushed her face until her freckles were obscured. “Who the hell are you? I know everybody on this gorram ship, and you ain’t one of them!”

She looks closer. "Do I know you?"

SR: Who I am is a long story. You seem to contradict yourself. I could say things about past lives or fate or parrellel universes, but I sense the form of answer you want to hear. No you don't know me. For the present I am the person who is offering you a poncho. You can put away your weapons. If I had wished it you would all ready be dead.

The stranger is armed, in a way that brings to mind the phrase "to the teeth". However a clever observer would certainly notice the sword on his left hip is tied into it's scabbard, the pistol on his right hip is likewise secured in its holster, as are the rest of his weapons likewise bound or covered.

SR: Have you ever considered a career in performance art?

“Performance art? Hmmmph! Like with a pole or something? I was a gorram Olympic acrobat! And I’m pretty strong, too. Didn’t save me from getting my ass kicked, though, ‘cause I never learned to fight. Well, I learned in the time since! I’m not afraid of anyone, now, and that means you, too! Now, who are you, how did you get on this ship, and what do you want?”

Deuce continues to hold her fighting stance while Scorpion Regent remains unthreatening, dangling a poncho off one finger. Still unclothed, Deuce shivers slightly. After a short time, she relaxes a bit and slowly brings the point of one sword near SR, but it is not pointed at him and the edge of the blade is turned away. He hangs the poncho off the tip of that sword. She brings it back and wraps it around herself, but she does not put it over her head or take her eyes from him.

“I was just getting chilled, is all. It’s not like I trust you.”

SR: Who am I? The short form: Name, Scorpion Regent. I am quartermaster with Voodoo Nell, but that's just one of my day jobs. How did I get here? I'm not completely certain. I took part in a tribal ritual involving the ingestion of some powerful sacrements a ways back and they have some side effects that still manifest occasionally. What do I want? It's been a long time since anyone asked me that. For the moment I would be well served by a chance to clean up, a bite to eat and a chance to get some sleep.

The stranger turns his head such that he now is looking Duece straight in the eye. His eyes reveal a soul that has traveled, fought and searched for centuries. These eyes have seen birth and death, triumph and despair. They are eyes of wisdom and yet they have no arrogance. They are sharp and then they focus out for a moment, they blink in a rapid complex sequence. Duece feels slightly light headed and then stranger turns his gaze away.

SR: Yet I suspect that is far too much to ask for in trade for the use of a poncho, so if can show me to Nell's ship I will be out of your way.

Braced for a lot of shouting, Seryn realises it not going to come, uncrewing her face from it expectant grimace, she stares incomprehensibly at Jack

*blink*

Then slowly she smiles.

'oh, nothing. Nothing at all! I'm one perfectly worry free zone.'

'I'm so glad you're still here, you're always so good a reminding me what a total dork i'm being.'

*impulsively throws her arm around Jack*

*Jack struggles, pointing vaguely at the pinball machine, mouthing a protest, then realises that he's getting a free hug and embraces her back*

Jack - 'Are you planning to gut me?'

'what? No!'

'I seem to remember, last time, that you said you would if I ever touched you again...'

'Ah.... well no fear, I have renounced my gut-inesss ways, In fact i'm not going to be a pirate any more.'

*jack looks at her surprised*

'can I have your ship?'

'no'

'If you die can I have your ship?'

*smiles as she recognises the joke*

'go on then'

*tenses*

'Jack.... do you know who that large scary looking cat belongs to?
More importantly, has it ever been know to eat folks?'

*Finished with the spell, TheManinBlack puts away the various materials that were needed.*

Okay, I see were she is at, but there seems to be another with her.

*Checks instructions yet again.*

Ah, yes, well I'll just take care of him at the same time. Two birds, one stone. At least it makes less work for me. I hate doing this crap. Afterwards I always feel, dirty.

Well, i'm pretty much gonna be here, the kitchens, or the room in the west wing, you can smell everywhere i've been, so just run along now kitty. back to you're....

The pressure is back, joined this time by tingling and flushes of heat over her skin. A shiver runs up her spine. That was actual magic...

oh.... the mojo's here...
