oh cheer!
ooh! pre-ruled lines!
oh, that ok, um, i'm not going to pretend that I understnd all of that, but as long as wear good.
that oes mean we're good doesn't it?
Yeah, dinner would be cool, sounds like fun, and maybe you could help me plan *lowers her voice* the surprise party... *loud again* So, those blueprints look interesting? what are you planning to make?
SRs note? I don't know what it says, to be honest I don't think I want to know. I'll get this job sorted, then i'll worry about it.
*sighs*
ok, i'd better read it...
*finishes reading* well! If he'd stayed, I know what would have been his perfect job -Health and Safety Officer - though he probably would have only taken it if he was allowed to use a whip to make his point.
I'm going to miss him... No-one ever disapproved of me quite the way he did *grins*

Hey Washie, I need to appologize to you too. See, I thought something was going on that wasn't, 'cause see, I'm an idiot. And I got overly excited about the possibilities in my head. I got selfish and I think I hurt people that aren't me. I was wrong, If there's any thing I can do to make it up to you, I will.

What part was unclear? I thought you were more into me. I had a dream in which we were much much closer, and thought that was the way to go, but it seems, at this point at least, that's not the case.
Yes, We're good. Well, evil, but good to each other at least.
Oh these? blue prints for a shuttle craft I was going to look into building.
Huh? oh him, Yeah he's wound up a bit tight at times, could use a vacation if ya ask me, which ya didn't, so shutting up now.

*Ath walks up behind ItsAWash, who looks as though she's just woken from sleep, with a resume in hand.*
"Hi! CallMeAth. I don't believe we've met. I was a little busy playing Twister when you came in."
"Oh, hi! I'm ItsAWash, or just Washie. Nice to meet you. Are you here to apply for a job, too?"
"Yeah, I'm gonna try for Assistant Pilot. I have some experience. Had to learn on my planet. Seeing as all the women have wings, most menfolk learn to fly so we can visit them in their roosts."
"But...you have wings."
"These? Oh, I just got them.
"Anyway, I took it a step further and flew a transport ship for a few years. Once had to fly through an asteriod field to escape some space pirates, but that's a story for another time.
"So, what are you applying for?"
Washie tells him.
"Ship Counsellor, huh? We could sure use one." ***
*Stepping aside after doing her best to impress upon the First Officer her aptitude for the new job, Washie glances at CallMeAth's manly yet lovely wings again. 'Hmmm. A pilot who can fly a spacecraft and HIMSELF whenever he wants to. What a perfect combination!'
Washie sincerely hopes he gets the job, sending up a short prayer to Buddah on his behalf.
She murmurs to Ath unobtrusively as TRM peruses her C.V., "Good luck, Ath. Hope you get everything you want."

To Jadehand:
Nope. Ain't no idiots on the 'Tree. None I've seen so far and anyhow, if I get the Ship's Counselor gig, it'll be my job to try to help any that run amuck in future. You're far too cool and jing zi to be an idiot/dope/varmint/cretin or anything else unpleasant. All pleasanty is our Jadehand.
And hey, J? It was good drama, Babe. "I" started it by taking twg's taking we three creampuffs to the shower as something it wasn't. My bad, that. No worries, neh? You move on, we move on, we all float on.
As far as making it up to me, howz about sending some positive Marillion energy out there so they get my disk wending my way? If I get some swai new quarters on this gorram boat I'll need some excellent tuneage to send wafting into the darkest corners. And sigh...it's now 28 days PAST the ruttin' 28 days the web-site told me it'd come...
*Perks up.* Meanwhile, here's hoping we all get the jobs we're interviewing for. If all goes well I'll buy ya a beverage of your choice with my first paycheck and give ya a friendly smooch in the bargain. Pic courtesy of KellyofLuthien

Unclear? oh, nothing, just me and my dohnut brain *grins* Show me these plans of yours...
I never new you were an engineer? So cool, I mean I can tie bows with a biplane but still call all the controls 'knob thingies' I'm not at all technical to my instructors never-ending despair.
Its like I take it all in but only on a 'use once then discard' basis.
But stuff me.. whats this bit here do?

Washie: Yeah I just had too much in my head. I shoulda taken a few steps back and thought about things before just running with it. The shower thing was ummm, just 'clean' fun. The CD should be in soon, I know they had Holidays, and Karel said they may be quarterly instead of monthly. Soon. *Has More Marillion thoughts* Free smoochies? Sounds like a good deal.
Seryn: Doughnut Brain? sounds tasty. 
These plans? Oh, a shuttle craft. I call her 'Ocean Cloud'. Mostly for cargo, but there's fold down seating and seatbelts for up to ten in the back, which of course reduces the amount of cargo you can haul but still leaves room for a sizable weapons rack, kinda makes it function as a drop ship for missions if need be. Me? an engineer? Nah, I just had a dream about it, but seeing how well that other dream worked out, I might have to have someone else look over it first.
Stuff you? but I thought.....Oh well. Oh that bit? ummm, that's the S.E.P. It's a kind of cloaking device. It doesn't so much hide the shuttle as make it appear to be 'Somebody Else's Problem'. People just ignore it.
**lowers voice** what party? for whom? I'm in.

* listens Intently to plan *
Ah yes, sounds good, But can you explain why I have to be nekkid again? And why I have to be hanging upside down?
*watches the shock cross Seryn's face and then Listens as she explains again *
Oh right, yes I misunderstood again. So will Archie and Esme be there? We should take them some leftovers or salady bits from our dinner.

Breaking through the line of job applicants, Bride5 slinks up to TheRealMe, reaches up to put her arms around his neck, and gives him a long lingering kiss. TheRealMe spills just a little bit of coffee from his mug.
Bride5 smiles and bats her eyes. “I came here to get a job.”
TheRealMe gulps. “YOU’RE HIRED! Oh, wait, what kind of job?”
“Pilot!” She says.
Trying not to spill any more coffee, TheRealMe disentangles himself from Bride5. “Sorry, my dear, but that requires qualifications.”
Bride5 pouts and her whole demeanor changes. Her hands become fists at her side and she stomps the floor once. “Dammit! I flew the Sereni-Tree during the Reaver attack!”
“And I’ll consider that. Come on into my office, everyone, and we’ll talk. The truth is, I never expected anyone to come by for a job. They never do.”
TheRealMe, First Officer of the Sereni-Tree
