..WASH'S MOVE
Considering the boy hasn't slept much in three days due to insomnia, is suffering a mild concussion (or two), has developed an irrational fear of River, and is strung up on a doozy of a pill granted him by Doctor Simon Tam, Wash is none the worse for wear. Clothes still on inside out, he appears to be mildly intoxicated with wild eyes and a cheshire smile, but otherwise functional.
"Steer?" Wash looks in Book's face as he's helped to the bridge. "I can steer. I'm good at steering. But we gotta go. We gotta find Lou's head."
Once on the bridge, Wash aquires tunnel vision, seeing nothing but his chair. He goes straight to it like a man on a mission, pushing anyone else or anything else out of his way. "My chair. I'll be safe in my chair. Yah. She can't get me there.."
Three habitual switch flicks above his right shoulder and Wash immediately begins the procedure of reconfiguring the navigational array, as if he were a pro, which he is. It takes seconds. It's something he can do in his sleep, which for all intents and purposes, he is. If it weren't for the fact that he's suffering from a waking nightmare, you'd think he actually knew what he was doing.
He glances up and looks out the viewport to the starry inky black. Raises a left forefinger briefly and counts stars, "one, two, third star to the left and straight on till morning.. and we're ready to go-" Then he glances to his right at the viewscreen and sees Niska & an impatient looking man whom he doesn't recognize.
"Oh, Hi Niska. How's tricks? --NISKA!?!?"
Wash slams on something which a 20th century observer might equate with an accelerator, only it's on the console and not at one's feet, and the ship has now abruptly changed course, heading towards that third star on the left thing.
Wash is now cursing in chinese rather breathlessly, and hyperventilating, as the ship careens hard to port with increasing speed.
..END MOVE
OOC addon:
I do wish to point out that the hyperventilating is due to having just seen Niska, and not due to his piloting skills. Even in his present condition, actual piloting is something he can do with relative safety and discipline. Under normal circumstances he'd be a steely eyed missile man at the controls.
By the way.. Anyone gonna stop Wash? Cuz unless somebody comes along and just knocks him unconscious again, next stop is never never land or wonder land or disney land or God knows where.
Don't blame me I'm just as surprised as the rest of you.

OOC: Sorry for my absence, guys. Had knee surgery and am having difficulty getting to the computer regularly. Should be better now.
Zoe's Move:
Enters the bridge at a dead run, grabbing at the doorjam for support as the ship lurches with its new acceleration.
To Wash: "Wash, dear, why aren't you still in bed and what the ching xiao da are you doing???"
To Mal: "Cap'n, don't you think we ought to keep the overtired, delusionsl maniac off the bridge for just a bit?"
End Move

It would probably be a good idea for us to set a regular time to meet up...

..WASH's MOVE
He glances back briefly at the sound of her voice. Sees only Zoe. His dialated eyes sparkle. Then his attention returns dead ahead.
"ZOE! Honey! Love of my life! Good to see your head's back. You had me worried. No time for kissy face though. We gotta save Lou!"
The ship lurches once again in response to Wash's movement at the controls and then stablizes at his will, heading straight for a star (which was 3rd star to the left but is now dead ahead) that's on the charts but no one's ever explored before, as it's a wee bit outside what's known as the outer rim.
..END MOVE

MAL: [Grabs onto railing to steady himself as Serenity goes into turn] Says to Wash:"Gorram it Wash! Get a grip on yourself and put us back on course for Hara!Dong ma?"; [Looks to Zoe with apprehension]Says to Zoe:"Yeah, you heard rightly. I said Hara. Serenity Valley's our pickup sight!"; [Looks back to monitor, turns on audio]Says to Niska:"Niska, I got exactly no time to be jackin' my jaws with the likes o' you! Why don't ya cut to the chase and give me the low-down on why I'm seein' your ugly ruttin' mug again!" END TURN.
Let's Do Some CRIME!

Ciara-Think we still need Inara. Will also need a "shady middleman" on Hara. If you come up with someone interesting, or a good "guest star", you're more than welcome!

Book remains silent, waiting for the news he is dreading.
OOC That doesn't include me does it?

Zoe's Move:
To Mal: "Serenity Valley? You sure about this, Sir? Seems to me like Badger might be looking to leave us high and dry again, and bein' none to subtle about it this time."
Putting a hand on Wash's shoulder to get his attention...
To Wash: "Wash, honey, turn the ship around like the nice captain said. We can help Lou better by going where we're needed."
...hits the internal comm button to the infirmary...
"Doctor, you're needed on the bridge. Bring your kit with sumthin' to help Wash wake up."
End Turn.

Zoe's Move (Supplemental):
Steps back to Wash, hand on his shoulder, with a guarded look on her face as she waits to hear what Niska and Early have to say.
End Move.

Probably a good place for Mal, Niska, Early, Simon, or Wash to have a say...
