SR returns and looks the young man right in the eye.

"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?"

"Got nuthin' in my hand anyway!"
Deuce drops her cards on the table.
"Hey, Jadehand! We're gonna start rounding up our strays!"
She turns back to Noskills. "Let's go!"

N0Skillz jumps up from the game of cards.
'Finally some action I am around to get in on!' he thinks to himself.
Pulling a couple of .45 cailber pistols outta his carry-on bag, he checks the ammo holster them under his arm. Grabbing a couple of extra clips of ammo, he sticks them in pouches right next ot his guns, N0Skillz reaches for a sword thats about the length of his forearm and sheaths it horizontally at the small of his back.
Looking at Duece he asks the simple, yet complex question, "So, where do we start?"

"So's arrogance and a lack of any form of recognisable humor, buuuu dy." She throws back.
But he just ignores her, and cause she hasn't done it for a while and figures it might be fun, she sticks her tongue out and wobbles her head in SR's direction.
Then with supreme dignity and grace she stops, composes her face and turns back to the new guy, wondering if she should tell him she's just testing, or rather teasing him already, or just let him answer to hear what he says.
She goes for option B.

“Oh. A plan? See, I’m not that good with plans. I mostly let my Sensei figure that part out, then I help him kill things.” Deuce thinks. “Well, Quincy has always liked snazzy places. Classy guys. Rich ones. When we visited Rukus, she spent all her time with the Simonclones. Wouldn’t touch a Jayneclone. Uh, well she did touch one that once. I mean, all us Brides tried to compare…”
Deuce’s face reddens.
“Well, anyway, then at the Black Diamond resort, when she got all dressed up like that she stuck to doctor and lawyer types. So, I guess we should start looking in the bedrooms of rich and powerful guys. Or in five star hotel rooms.”
Deuce gets a concerned look.
“Probably a lot of those. I bet it’d be easier to track down a cyborg walking around town.”
Deuce pulls a chainmail vest over the t-shirt she is wearing, then the top of her gray sweats over that. She grabs her pair of sheathed katanas in her left hand.
“I’m ready!”
Deuce starts walking to the hanger exit.

Oh and we almost forgot shoes! We can't leave without new shoes!
Shoes! Of course!
*The women pay for their fabrics and rush across the street to the nearest shoe store. 20 minutes later they head back out onto the street, laden with boxes and bags.*
Wow, Mai, you are a marathon shopper! I am impressed. I didn't think it was possible to buy that many pairs of shoes that fast! But, I guess it really is time to be heading back.

"So no goat then? Will you excuse us for just a moment?" The young man wanders off a distance to give SR and Seryn some space. SR turns to Seryn "He'll probably mesh with the rest of the crew. I don't see anything uniquely special about him. We seem to have a abundance of crew all ready so I can't say I really see true need for the lad, but some of the single women might find excuses to keep him. I suppose Jet and I could put him in some sort of apprentice position in engineering when he wasn't working the galley and with the crew as large as it is he could surely help out in the infirmary when things go wrong again, that is if he can stand the sight of blood. You could turn him into a proper pirate, one whose true loyalties are only to you if anybody asked you could say you hired him as your "Man servant" but the crew would smile and whisper. Somehow I think he's too good natured for that. Oh buy the way these are for you." SR hands Seryn a box half the size of a shoe box."
Seryn opens the box to see a pair of matching bracelets with attached rings.
"I couldn't possibly...,"
"I got gifts for a lot of the crew so don't think that it's something its not. I just thought you would appreciate it and I came into some money before Boros and I want to share the wealth."
