"Sure thing, Boss," Deuce replies to Jadehand. She turns back to Noskills, who is sitting at the same table. "Tall card is peach."
Noskills studies his cards carefully. "You could call them."
Deuce nods, shifts all her cards to her left hand, and gets out her com-link with her right.
"Quincey? Quincey? Hey how much longer..."
From a duffle bag sitting upon another table in the shuttle's lounge, Quincey's com-link beeps.
"Hummmph! Looks like she left it behind."
"Meaning what?"
"Meaning she didn't want no calls. Meaning she plans on getting lucky tonight. We might have to go looking for her."
She brings the com-link to her face again. "McQ? McQ? Did you stay here on Garrison or did you run off to Commerce with the others for girly shopping? Hell, do you even have one of these gorram com-links?"

"'Captn' is a honorific lad, but we are on a ship. So tell me are you old enough to be considered an adult in your tribe, society, breeding unit? Have you ever been to space before? Have you ever been banished on account of being, say, clumsy? Do you have any refferences?"

SR hold up his hand indicating for the lad to hold that thought andactivates his comm-link.
"We are running pre flight now and stowing the last of the cargo." He pauses and begins making whooshing noises similar to the sound of a shuttle engine. "Looks like Quincey has a wild hair up her tookus to fly so fifteen looks...," he makes more whooshing noises. "so might be sooner than that." More whooshing."Better hurry." SR deactivates comm link and turns back to the young man.
"So where were we?"

*Serenity turns to Mai*
Did it sound like he was making whooshing noises into the commlink to you?
Mai: Yes, it did.
CMS: Well, then, 1/2hr it is! Now, which of these two fabrics do you like better?

She watches with surprise and amusement as he fakes the shuttle noises, a small smile craking her lips, but then abruptly ignores him and turns to the guy.
"Shove references lad, more importantly, what can you offer us in return for all that food and milk? What skills do you have, whats of use to us? Tell me why we should take you on above all the other people who would wish to join us.
*thinks* not that theres many of them
Take your time, don't BS me, just give me an honest answer, when you're ready."
She turns to SR and smoothly removes that small box from his hands.
"Don't open that, not if you value your circulation, not until you've learned the commands and safe words.
It a present, to say sorry to Cozen, for.. well... enforcing a more than common intimacy between him and his pet, simply because I was peeved. It will prove to be a mistake, seeing as it will just make his... hobby... that much easier to accomplish, but I'm learning that not everyone objects to it the way I did. So..."
She turns back to the guy, but continues talking to SR,
"As for the men laughing at me. Lighten up! all that time spent with women and you still don't recognise whim and contrariness?"
and to the guy,
"Well?" *Smiles*

FozzieWash, You know what I always say: sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug!
KermieMal, I never Know what the heck you're talking about.
FozzieWash, Hey, look! They're sending us free lumber!

"Fair enough. Sometimes I see Cozen as just a romantic in need of a little restrain and subtlety. I guess that's the restraint."

SR Leans in whispers in Seryns ear.
"Whim and contrariness are undeniably a woman's perogative, but are unbecoming a commanding officer. Touche,...Mil' Lady." SR turns and walks off towards the shuttle feeling suddenly very sober.

Wonder what they are so impatient about? I think we can ply at least another half hour or so out of them... besides it's not like they would just leave us.
Hmmm decisions... well I really like the flowy one with the all the little lace-y bits. As for color... but the other one is so silky and sophisticated... I don't know! It's too hard to decide.
*take out handbag and begins carefully counting coin*
Oh what the heck! Let's just get enough of both of them and decide later. It's not like you all won't be able to use the leftovers for something wedding-y.
Oh and we almost forgot shoes! We can't leave without new shoes!
