River, seeing Slight entering with Book behind, says:
He's not welcome. He hurt people. He's not sorry.

Damon's turn:
After cleaning his arm wound and wrapping it up, Damon pulls a clean shirt and pair of pants out of his bag. He considers taking his second gun out to relplace his missing one, but decides that he doesn't want to risk having it taken from him as well.
He tosses his bloddied shirt on the counter and starts changing into his clean clothes.

Inara's turn
Simon gets River settled on the bed, then turns to Inara:
Please watch over her, Inara. I don't think the new guests aboard are settling well with her.
He takes her wrist and steps closer, his thumb pressed to her strongly beating pulse. She tilts her head back to look up into his blue eyes--they shine with a preternatural glow. Simon's breath tickles her face, and she leans back a bit--put off by this unaccustomed closeness to the ship's medic.
He looks deeply into her eyes--"You'll watch over her, won't you Inara?
Here is more of the deep emotion that he'd exhibited earlier in his room, after he awoke from his apparent nightmare.
Inara nods mutely, unsure of what to say, as Simon turns and strides through the room's other door (ooc, is there another door?)
As Simon exits, Slight enters, Book in tow.
Inara hears a small whimper from the bed, and sees River backpedalling across the blankets. She rushes to River, and catches her in her lap as she nears the far edge of the bed. River pushes her back against Inara's chest and huddles there.
TO BOOK:Shepherd--I'm not sure River is prepared to face Mr. Helsing! Are you sure forcing her to is wise?
RIVER: He's not welcome. He hurt people. He's not sorry.
Inara makes small shushing sounds and holds River tighter.
End Inara's turn

OOC: Hey guys, I had an idea: how about we help Jayne not look like a raging food aholic and say that at some point he finished his meal and is now cleaning his guns on the table in the common room. What do you think?

and it shall be done!
*poof*
JAYNE:
Feeling as if little of what's going on around has has anything to do with him, Jayne finishes his stew, takes bowl and utensils to the sink, and parks them there.
He doesn't know WHO's turn it is to do the dishes, but he's darn sure it ain't him.
Jayne heads to his bunk, retreives Vera, binky, and a whole host of other weapons, his cleaning kit and whetstone.
Plunking everything down on the dining table, and giving a grumpy glare to Damon and Mal, Jayne proceeds to go over every miniscule part of his arsenal.

Kaylee's Move
Location: Engine Room
Kaylee nods in Rowan's direction.
"I'm sure things're just fine out there now. You go on and see if you can't help out with sumthin'. I got things under control in here."
Kaylee smiles as Zoe appears in the doorway.
"Hey, Zoe! I know, I know...what happened, right? I had ta shut the engines down, she wasn't right. Don't worry, she'll be ready in no time. You go on 'n clean up that mess down in the cargo bay. The smell is starting to drift all the way up here. And tell Wash she'll be ready in a few. He sounds anxious."
Kaylee smiles, a bit nervously, and waits for Zoe's response. She's always been a little intimidated by the Captain's closest friend. She's so tough, and pretty, and....Kaylee sighs.
End Move
OOC: Thanks, Channain! I try.

"I love my Captain."

Rowan's Move:
Location: Engine Room with Kaylee - Zoe just arrived.
Standing between the two women, sensing a touch of tension between the two - first officer to engineer kind of tension - she sees Zoe raise a speculative eyebrow, answered by Kaylee's "it's okay" smile. Feeling strength on one side and pure exuberance on the other, she decides the dynamics of the crew of this ship were truly vast and mind-boggling. Not entirely sure who to defer to now, she looks to them both.
ROWAN: Um...mop? Bucket?
EOM
OOC: Considering Astriana is off shindiging (can I use that?), this may be it for the Engine room for awhile.

Book's Move
Location: River's Room, in the doorway right behind Brink.
Book enters and looks from River to Inara
Book to Inara
"I know Inara, I don't want to force River to do anything, this man's determination seems unquenchable though. He says he needs to look at River... to see if she's in danger. I know, I know, it sounds crazy, but I'm here and if anything amiss happens he's gonna find himself absent a couple kneecaps."
Book, looking to River
"Honey, how are you?"

Mal's Move:
[Deciding that he better start acting captainy before things get totally out of hand, Mal heads for the engine room to get a status report. He enters as Zoe and Rowan leave for the cargo bay and meets them in the passage.]
"Zoe, Guess you got that Damon to the Doc. Why don't you get little Miss Obsidian-eyes here to cleanin' up the cargo bay? She wanted to work her passage, an' here's her chance."
[Making sure to give Rowan plenty of room as they pass, Mal moves on to the engine room. Kaylee is elbow-deep in the engine, and swearing like a Chinese sailor.]
"Kaylee! Ni bu gan kai ni de hwang chiang. Just tell me what's wrong with Serenity. "
EOM
Ni bu gan kai ni de hwang chiang = You must not talk so nastily.
