Motions for the lovely ladies to move forward with him, and quickly, quietly takes a few steps back and spins on his heel. Returns to the zoo. Here he slumps against the wall and drops to a sitting position. Pulls out Jacks bottle of rum tips it up and drains it into his gut. Replaces the bottle and slumps over, waiting patiently to be eaten by the friendly Frederick the dinosaur.*

Now see, the thing is: Before I climbed aboard this here 'Tree not more'n a few days back, I went and saw Brokeback Mountain. And this here scene with Mr. Jade of the Hand? It fairly shrieks of the part where Ennis slumps down in the alley and grieves over what might be lost love. Anybody else see the comparison?

Seryn? He's all yours, Honey. And he needs some comfort, neh?

*Wash out.

Since she likes older men anyhow, and because he looks kinda lonely, Washie slips quietly up to cozen and blows in his ear. Just a little.

The curious newcomer thanks you for the thorough and most welcome run-down. Also for the thoughtful alphabetizing. Most well-done, TRM.

**we do not have a ship’s Counsellor / Therapist to handle the more loopy members of our crew. >>

Abandoning the tour, fascinating though the first stop on it has been, ItsaWash slings her backpack over one shoulder and follows the signs to the First Officer's Office. Knowing she is here on the wrong date and time, she nevertheless unrolls her sleeping bag, the one with the laser-tag logos all over it, and sits down to prepare for sleep. She figures she'll be first in line for the Ship's Counselor job.

Whenever the First Officer shows up, she is gorram sure she has what it takes to convince him she's the woman for the position.

Taking out her soft boar bristle brush, she gives her 53 inches of blonde/brown hair the requisite 100 strokes. Snuggling in the makeshift bunk now, hair safely spread behind her along the wall of the corridor, Washie says a short prayer full of hope for a new job and fades into the arms of Morpheus, god of sleep.

Ooo, cast list! take out pad and begins scribbling names down, then stashes the list and wonders where she can find pink paper...

Oh, piloting sounds like lots of fun.. The Napolean Bonaparte, hmmmm... oh, have to see if I can nab that job. Animal handling sounded good as well, i've done that before... of course, 90% of animal husbandry is poo scooping *thinks of Frederick* Maybe if no one else volunteers...

*listens to Washie*

*blinks*

Awww, crap! double crap and blast.

Looks at the picnic area, then whole thing about leaving things and they just get worse.

*Sneaks off to find JadeHand*

finds him in the corridor, slumped around a bottle of rum.

*takes the bottle away*

Are you upset?

I'm sorry, I really thought that she was into you, I mean I'd never shower with anyone unless I meant business,*ponders* guess showers don't mean as much to everyone else. But no need to be sad eh?
Plenty of other womenfolk around.
I'll take you out on the pull if you like, i'm good at the whole 'my mate fancies your mate' thing, got soooo much practice in high school, you would not believe...

And well.... *leans over and gives Jadehand a hug -with about as much natural hugging finess as you average ironing board - but a hug nonetheless*

There there *pats back* um, there there?

Breathe, Simon.

I know it’s a bit of a surprise, but it doesn’t mean we have to do anything today or even tomorrow. I…*she looks away for a moment to catch her breath*…I knew there was reason I asked you to join us *she smiles at him and he tries to smile back* Whenever this happens, it will be because we both want it to happen. It will be because we love each other and we want a son…17 or 30 years from now…no need to jump into anything this second…

*she looks up to find him staring at her*

…unless you want to….but we don’t have to. *she smiles at him. He is breathing normally once more* I baked some pie. Simon, would you like some cream pie?

*PR had got most of the conversation between TWG and SW when he was in the common room. He now knows and understands that SW is his father.*

*PR was wondering the ship when he spied SW & TWG walking towards him holding hands. They seem to be on there way to the kitchen. PR smiles.*

Hey guys. *He says, he smiles knowingly at the pair of them before turning and walking off down the corridor.*

*stirs at the sound of TRM requesting a brewmaster for the Sereni-Tree. A sly grin crosses his face as he thinks.."perfect, I best apply." Watches and listens as it seems Washie completely understands what's going on, another grin/grimace crosses his face. Watches as Seryn Blinks as if she understands, then eagerly listens as she shows that she does not. He scoops up the now empty bottle and places it in the holster on his left hip.*

"Out on the pull"? I don't know what that means. So, you're good at recognizing who fancies who eh? Lots o practice at it eh?

*pulls himself up to one knee, takes Seryn's right hand in his as if he needs help standing, and places a gentle kiss on her hand right between the index and middle finger where the fingers meet the back of the hand.*

Thanks, love but I think I better go find my quarters and have another shower.

*Stands and wanders off. As he walks down the empty hallways, he pulls out his full name pad and scribbles "Black Jack Rackham", peals the sticker and slaps it over the "JadeHand" tag. his hair grows longer and an eyepatch appears over one eye, shoes become black leather boots, and most importantly a bottle becomes full*

Arrrrr! Where's me bloody room?

* Finds an unoccupied room, goes in and pulls off the nametag, returning to JadeHand. He places all his clothing in a corner, drinks a good portion of the now full bottle, then climbs into the shower. and somehow finds his head filled with a song.*

***I'm sorry, I really thought that she was into you, I mean I'd never shower with anyone unless I meant business,*ponders* guess showers don't mean as much to everyone else.***

*From her impromptu bedding down by the First Officer's door Wash overhears Seryn's words to Jadehand echoing, peeling back the layers of sleep. Wash mutters, "Showers are just a way to get clean," as she sniffs her own April-fresh armpit,"and like...the whipped cream-covering felt awfully sticky, even if it was just a dream sequence, so what were a girl and boy to DO, I'm askin!."

Shaking her head as she glares ruefully toward the end of the hallway from which the voices emanated, she thinks Sernyn and Jadehand OR Seryn and Jade's alter ego BJR oughta try taking a looooooong hot shower for real, while they're awake. Emphasis on "long and hot."

"Might solve some things, if only the idjits had the sense to try some good clean fun instead of badly muddled angst."

Her last thoughts as she fades into dreams again: "All these mooks around here SERIOUSLY need a Ship's Counselor, gorramit."

Sorry!

*turns off music*

But, um, here's my question. If the two of you were to..um..well, you know..and TWG was get pregnant, how would that work? I mean, you'd have PR here, all very nearly grown up and then you'd have little embryotic PR. He can't exist in two places at the same time, can he? Wouldn't that disrupt the very fabric of time and space? It could cause the collapse of the very universe itself!!

JH in the midst of his showering remembers that disturbing episode with SR and the envelope for Seryn.
