SR waits ten seconds after ending his mesage for acknowledgement. He will repeat again if there is no acknowledgement, if the situation with the suit and his hostage hasn't come to a head.
Aw! Now that rude guy in the alley is blinking that light in my eyes again! Maybe we should close a few blinds...

I'm going to go do some weeding in my garden. I'll be back in half an hour. Do you think you could keep Charlie safe and happy for that long? It's really not hard. Hold him like..this..and here, see if he wants to play with a toy.
*Sees terrified expression on Soul's face.*
I'll only be gone 30 minutes! Stop worrying!
Soul watches Serenity walk away, and then looks down at the doll in his hands, which turns out to be a big mistake. The doll is still crying, but it's eyes are now swirling pools of color, and Soul can't look away...
After a moment, Soul stands, a vacant look on his face, the doll still in his arms.
"Must...destroy...SereniTREE..."

*twg and Simon sit at the kitchen table, oblivious of the rest of the turmoil on the tree. They are trying to talk, but find it hard to not laugh and act like 14-year-olds on a first date. It shouldn’t be hard. They’ve known and lived with each other for more than a year. They’ve cuddled in hammocks. They’ve had pie fights. She’s seen him in a slinky red dress…*
SW: Heelloooo. You seem to be worlds away at the moment.
twg: Heh. Sorry, just lost in thought. *her eyes rake his form* You still have that red number?
*he sees the wheels turning but still thinks it’s too soon for that. He picks up a pie*
SW: I should, it’s your dress…would you like another piece of pie? *she shakes her head no…his lip curls and he begins to chuckle…she knows what that means*
twg: Oh no…no, no, no…SPLAT 
…You’re so gonna get it. *they begin a very messy pie fight. She runs into the common room to avoid a pie….she sees Soul suddenly go ‘blank’ and she feels her son's wanderlust….but all she can do about it is duck…*
SW: I’m coming for you….*he throws the pie but twg has moved out of the way. SW watches as the last pie smacks Soul in the face….*
SPLAT
twg: Uh, did he just say he was gonna destroy the tree? Why'd you hit him? *SW looks incredulously at twg* okay, you didn't mean to...hey, Soul, you okay? It's just pie.

Soul's eyes twitch.
"Must...change...diaper..."
He heads off in the direction of the bathrooms.

Seryn, the Bonaparte lead pilot? Sure.
Finally, Ath and Bride5 as Sereni-Tree Assistant pilots? Well, I'm afraid that I'll have to give it to Ath, since he has more experience. Bride5, you can back him up.
whoo hoo! *Seryn jumps on TRM and hugs him till he starts to flap his arm in panic, then she stands back and hands him the plate of pie*
Thank you! Though, that leaves Bride5 with not very much to do...
*thinks* If she wants to, can she split her time between assisting Ath and Flying the Bonaparte with me? After all I can't fly it every time... especially if you, my dear Mr Me, would agree to let me look at that fighter? See if she's still spaceworthy..
*looks at Bride5* would you prefere that Bri... Do you have a name? *grins* can I call ya Quincey?
*looks back to TRM* then she gets experience and you get some added clout should things go pear shaped, and I get to fly one of those baby's again.

*PR opens up the door to the blue box. Or, at least, he tries to. But it's locked, and can only be opened with a key.* Hmmm... *PR raises an eyebrow.*
*PR smirks.* Well, the mind is the most powerful key there is...
*PR focuses his mind on the lock and feels it out with his mind.*
*It doesn't unlock.* Grrrr.
Stupid mystical box... *PR decides this won't work and walks off.*

Boros: Companion House;
Safe closes his eyes and tries to concentrate over the noise. A house servant’s comment galvanizes his thoughts. “All he wants to do is talk. Why aren’t you talking to him? He’ll let us go if you just talk…” The servant’s words trail off as he stares down the barrels of Safe & Jack guns.
“Listen closely; I’m only going to say this once.” Safe starts in a low deadly voice. “If I go out there that man will take me away then he will kill everyone in this house including those poor saps.” Safe says nodding his head towards the Alliance soldiers outside. “I won’t get off so easy. He’ll take a year to kill me. So the next person what voices the same suggestion, I will save the gray suit some time and kill you myself. At least my way will be faster.”
Surprisingly, Citizen nods his head in agreement. Safe looks at him with new respect. This man is more seasoned than he lets on.
“Jack what have you got?”
“We're surrounded Safe.”
Safe turns to Bride6 “What’s with the guy with the light? Is he Alliance? Keep an eye on him. If he’s a friendly, signal him to stand down. Too many lives at risk right now. ”
“Citizen, you and Needy see if you can find a connection to your tunnels from here and start gettin’ people outta here.”
Safe's train of thought is broken by the bull horn:
“Captain, I’m getting tired of this game. I didn’t want to resort to such base methods as threatening to kill Lieutenant Neilson here, but you’ve left me no other option. Apparently the lives of your squad and the people in that house mean nothing to you.” The gray suit nods to the Scar man.
With an evil grin, Scar man draws his guns and shoots Neilson in the leg, dropping him to the ground.
“AAAGGH!! Captain!! Don’t you give in! Ain’t nuthin’ what you did was wrong!” Neilson screams “Any one of us woulda done the same had we the same guts you have.”
BOOM. Scar man shoots the other leg.
“AAAGHH! Captain… You’ll tell my family the truth…”
BOOM….
The silence that follows dissolves Safe’s formerly steely demeanor. Old doubts suppressed for years rush to the surface threatening to drown him. He slumps to the floor. With the gunshot still echoing in his ears he looks up. The grief on his face is painful to see. He watches as the room around him moves in slow motion.
Brides6’s hands fly up covering her mouth in shock, Jack screams “NO” but the gunshot echoing in Safe’s ears drown out all the sounds. Citizen tackles Jack as he heads for the door. Needy pauses as he ushers the last of his people through the hallway to the secret passage, a look of horror etched on his ashen face.

*Ath smiles, thanks TRM, and heads back to his room to change into something a little more professional.
*He puts on some cargo pants and a loud Hawaiian shirt. Then he digs into the back of his closet and pulls out some Invader Zim figurines...of DOOM!. He walks to the cockpit, places the figurines on the consoles, and settles into the comfortable chair.*
"So, do we need to go somewhere? Maybe to look for our wayward Brides?"
"Invader's blood marches through my veins like giant radioactive rubber pants. The pants command me! Do not ignore my veins!"

*a thought occurs to her*
Rat?
I was thinking, why bother with all that convoluted time travel stuff and compromising the... ..spam... supply?
Why don't you, JH, me an' a few others just go steal the money for what we need?
*looks to Jadehand* Which moon was it we'd heard about? the one that had just got in that huge shipment of ore? they were processing it, we planned to get the metal after it left the foundries...
Would that much platinum be enough to get your parts? Besides, how much fun would that be? Think of all the pissed off society matrons who'll have to fork out more for their bits of pretty...
*thinks about what she just said* Well, seems i've stopped wearing the hat, but I still appear to have the morals of a pirate.

*Serenity comes out of her garden, hands caked in dirt from pulling weeds and heads towards the bathrooms to wash up. As she turns down the corridor, she sees Soul carrying Charlie inside.*
Aww, he's going to change his diaper! Maybe he is willing to give this a try.
*She heads inside.*
Soul, I just wanted to apologize. I was too hard on you before, I...
*But she stops as she sees Soul trying to drown the doll in a toilet.*
WHAT ARE YOU DOING? ARE YOU CRAZY??
*Serenity grabs at Soul, shoving him out of the way and pulls the baby out of the toilet. Charlie gasps and sputters and then lets out a healthy wail.*
What were you thinking? Are you out of your mind? This robot cost me a fortune! If you short circuit it, I'll..I'll...OOOH! I'm too angry to talk to you anymore!
There there, Charlie, it's okay. Let's go get you cleaned up.
*She storms away. Over her shoulder, Charlie pulls a face at Soul and makes yet another rude hand gesture.*
