"Oh yeah. I think folks were about to gather for a little shindig. So put on your fancy duds and lets go! Or we could stay here..."

*LMD and Mai contemplate*

*kisses enuse again*

"Well, maybe we should go to the meeting. I have a feeling after all the crew has been through lately there might be a few updates we don't want to miss. Plus, we wouldn't want to miss out on the party."

*a few more kisses*

Go, get changed already! We're gonna be late.

Mai, Secretary of Unmentionables.

After Seryn steps down for others to introduce themselves Jazaf walks over to her.
'H'lo, My name is Jazaf. Heard you say you're something of a tailor so I was wondering if you could fix me up a Tux for the wedding. This...' Jazaf looks at his casual outfit,'Is Pretty much all I have. Ruined the other clothes when that water gave me wings.'
Seryn nods her head, 'Ok sure. I can do that. All I need are your measurements, so after this meeting come find me.'
'Kay.'
Jazaf walks back into the crowd to listen to the others introduce themselves, ignoring the still throbbing arm and now pulsing temples.

She sits back, contemplating two things, one, If TRM, or rather, if Washie wants TRM to be Captain, then thats fine by her, but would it not be better for more senior crew members to be doing the deciding? She looks around, Soul and Serenity lost in their own happy world, Ath absorbed in Kelly and the two little girls and Psychicriver nowhere to be seen. She briefly worries about him, and resolves to go find him after the meeting, and after she explained her little newsflash to JH. And maybe SR, looking at him theres no way she can judge how he took the news, which worried her more then his angry face would. Everyone else seemed to have taken it in and moved on, that was good at least.

The second thing she mulled over in her head, was did she still have her sewing machine and kit still packed away in her bag? And where the hell was she going to find suitable-for-a-wedding fabrics?

She listens to Safes announcment, he doesn't sound to happy she thinks, then watches as he stumbles away towards the infirmary. Citizen's introduction intrigues her, and when he's done she leans behind the people inbetween them and tugs on his sleeve.

"Hey, we could have need of your expertise, on this little expedition. If you are as good as you say at trading,smuggling and outright pinching, then stick around. If TRM doesn't ask for your help, then I will. You up for it?"

"I'd be delighted." Citizen said with a smile. "Always good to get out and about."

SR appears quietly over Citzen's shoulder.

"He's a mover and a shaker captn' but he plays things close to the vest too."

Citizen turns and see "Stan" has some how made it onto the tree.

SR hands him a small bag of platinum.

"That's for your troubles dirtside, but I do believe you're holding a bit of my property as collateral."

*Serenity raises her hand. Her ring glints in the light and she spends a few moments turning her hand back and forth admiring the sparkle.*

Oh, um, yes. TRM? Would any of these out-of-the-way planets you mentioned be nice, green ones? Because if so, I'd really like to have an outdoor wedding. Lots of flowers, flitting butterflies, the sun setting...

Hello everyone. Welcome. I am TheRealMe, the First Officer of the Sereni-Tree......

.......Anyway, these are my ideas. You are welcome to present yours.

So, what now? This is your meeting now, for questions, comments, and introductions.

Who wants to go next?

TheRealMe, First Officer of the Sereni-Tree

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Washie walks through the throngs of her new crew and family, smiling and whispering congrats to Soul and Serenity as she makes her way toward TRM. Standing at his side, hand tucked through his arm, she raises her hand to signal she has a proposal to make. Clearing her throat nervously, but feeling the time might never be better, she begins:

"Seems to me what I'm gonna say has been long-enough in coming. The 'Tree obviously operates shinily enough, has weathered tribulations a'plenty with TRM in charge, but why not make things permanent-like? We've a de-facto captain of Sereni-Tree in TRM, nobody can deny he's right for the job. Anybody want to join their voices to mine in proposing that whatever rituals need doing get done to give our First Officer a promotion to full-captaincy of this ship?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(Heavily edited due to wrong-time-wrong-place posting, although from much that I've read, the 'Tree's been without an official captain for long enough, seems you'll need to elect one at some point, even if not now.)

*It seems her newness has enabled her to work a rather significant and quite public faux pas, thus Washie decides to take herself out of the scene of the crime. She's puzzled a bit, since her asking who among the assembly would agree to formalizing the captaincy was worded so as to [Sereyn and others, please note] invite senior and all other crew members to voice input.

Wash hasn't had a full night's sleep in what seems like weeks, although really just a few days. The events of the recent past have weighed hard on her, and she knows she's not the only one. Having had enough of both battles and parties to last for several REM cycles, she walks to the bar, orders a cup of hot chamomile tea with honey, and sips it as she makes her way to her quarters.

100 brush strokes later, she writes a "please do not disturb" sign, hangs it on her cabin door and crawls into her comfy bed to sleep for at least an eon.

After waiting to see if anyone replies, Soul stands slowly to his feet. After agreeing with his fince's request for an outdoor wedding, Soul opens his mouth to answer Washie's call for opinions. The ship's counselor seems to have dissapeared, but Soul continues on anyway.

"I for one think TRM does a spectacular job as First Officer. However, Ebo is now and will always be our Captain. She's our figurehead. TRM may be the one who keeps us in line, but Ebo just makes us look good. Besides, I think TRM's got enough on his plate without having to worry about showboating around as Captain. I for one would vote that Me stays as First Officer, since he's just so damn good at it."

Soul goes to sit, but something else pops into his head.

"Oh, and while we're at it, we may want to send a search team under the pool table to see if our daring Captain is okay."

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