sorry Nico. My fault, won't happen again folks :( ...

Zoe and Choo stared down 13, a million questions racing through their heads

"John, Szat, get Erita back to the infirmary, we'll follow behind..."

"Sure thing Chloe," said Szat as John gunned the engine. The remaining three shared a look.

"Gotta remeber to introduce the crew..." muttered Zoe as she pulled out her comm link. "This is Zoe to Serenity, do you read."

"loud and clear my cute little warrior woman," Wash remarked, Zoe closed her eyes, wishing he hadn't said that.

"We found her, might want to tell the others to call off the search. John and Satz are coming back with the Erita, tell the doc shes got one hell of a case of memory loss."

"Dong-ma." said Wash as the comm link went dead.

Zoe and 13 exchanged a look, before Choo remarked, "Well, that was intersting. While we head back someone mind telling me what the frak that was about?.."

please do, i'm kind of confused :(....

*steam rolls out of the engine room when a 2ft shadow in seen, no metallic noises are heard. the figure ducks behind to pick up an item of intrest to the creature, and puts it onto its head... the steam slowly dissapears*

a peglegged, hooked, most probably severly brain damaged 62 walks out with a hand made cutlass and rapidfire musket in hand.

"crew..board the ship!!! oh... right... it be time to take back whats mine... arrr!!" mumbles 62 sidestepping some strange new guy that too stupid to notice a pirate bogey walking pass...

OoC: The original version of this post was written hastily, so I'm taking a bit of time to re-write it, so that it'll hopefully read better and make more sense.

Nico blinked a few times, trying to clear his thoughts. One minute he'd been about to drink what had smelled like a wonderful cup of coffee, the next thing he knew, he was playing hide and seek. Thinking that it must have been an after-effect of the alcohol or whatever it was that had caused him to end up out here in the first place was more or less confirmed by the sight of some 'thing' shambling past, appearanty believing itself to be a pirate, complete with cutless and peg-leg.

Shaking his head in amazement, he turned to chase after the doc, who might be able to help him identify what what had happened to him. As he did, he glanced up at the vent where he'd seen River. Sure she was good at hide and seek, but nobody can spot people who are trying to hide than someone who education involved a fine-tuned paranoia that helped him to be constantly aware of where people were in relation to him. That and his studies of Earth That Was had included reading someone's doctoral dissertation on a theoretical physicist called Gordon Freeman who'd (for reasons unspecified) spent a lot of time moving about through air vents. He'd been fairly certain of where she was, but the flash of white teeth in his peripheral vision as she smiled gave a definite location.

"You coming down from there? I need to track down your brother. Any idea where he might be headed?"

If you find yourself getting too worked up about stuff that isn't real (RP Threads etc), then go outside, breathe in some fresh air and try feeding the ducks. (Because ducks don't care about your politics, religion, skin colour, choice of music or even your haircut. They like everyone, provided you bring them food.)

thought Inara had left (only been mentioned once since i started...). Book...perhaps drop him off with Knives people, place hasn't got a name, maybe it is Haven?

Not sure about killing off Wash and Book...certainly be intersting, but...

Out Of Character Post!


1) I vote no on killing Wash & Book. Running the story-line is one thing, but if we, as players, have no power to change the outcomes, then where's the fun in that?
I mean, it's bad enough that we can't come up with an original storyline to play. We don't need to destroy the 'feel' of Life Onboard in the process, do we?

2)In "Serenity" Kaylee explains that it's the Captain, his turn towards darkness, and the desperation that Serenity has fallen into that helps drive Inara and Book away, that Simon & River will be next, and, I think Kaylee's implying here that she wants to leave as well.
We haven't let OUR Serenity fall into that darkness.. well..okay, we did, and I actually left for a while...but Mal won't fall into that despair, because he has US. We keep Life Onboard Serenity breathing and feeling.

When the idea of playing out the BDM came up some time ago, I voted it down, because a)it's all been done. and b) I like the haphazard, angsty/silly feel of our Life Onboard Serenity and didn't want that to change. If that's the direction we're going to go, lets see how fresh and new we can make it. :)

2)Inara is still very much onboard. I see no reason to make her leave... if it's necessary for the Operative scene, we could always have her just helping out at the training house for a while.

FULL POINTS TO 13 for attentiont to details! WELL DONE!
Yes, Ertia has reverted back to when she first went to prison. As far as she knows she's still married to Diggs..

Nico, this "That and his studies of Earth That Was had included reading someone's doctoral dissertation on a theoretical physicist called Gordon Freeman who'd (for reasons unspecified) spent a lot of time moving about through air vents." made me spurt hot-chocolate all over my screen. I hope you are proud of yourself!

Sammy clung to the edge of the hovercraft as it raced back to Serenity. She didn't know who these people were. And the things they were telling her... she'd faked her death? Was she a fugitive?
No no. She'd taken the plea bargain.
She had a choice and she took the bargain; the bargain between heaven and hell. What had she done?

"I'm sorry." She whimpered to the men, "I don't know you. Where are we going? Where are you taking me?"

"Back to the ship, bao bei." John's voice was reassuring, even though it was yelling over the hover-craft engines.

"Not back to jail?"

"No. Not to jail." Zsat said warmly, "We're getting you to a doctor."

They came to the cargo ramp and reeled to a halt. A beautiful woman rushed forward, "Ertia! What happened?"

The sweet scent of jasmine incense enfolded her, and a warm shawl was wrapped around her shoulders. Sammy stared at her in amazement and confusion. She couldn't speak of what happened, wasn't entirely sure she knew what happened.

"Inara." John shut off the engines and hopped down, "She's lost her memory."

The beautiful woman looked between the two men in disbelief, "What? I don't understand?"

"That makes two of us." Sammy was cold and she pulled the shawl closer, acutely aware that she was mostly naked and that she hurt all over. "I ... don't feel very good."

OoC: What's the point in having my character studying Earth That Was if I can't throw in references like that? Although in some future ones I may choose to muddle up the facts even more, rather than just having PC game characters thought of in the history books as real people.

Additionally, if people want to come up with their own take on what Nico did (or had done to him) during his blank period, they're welcome to, but only if it's from a NPC (ie, the doc doing a blood test, security camera footage, river reading stuff from his mind or the like).

Have to go but I wanted to just say hey everyone. I think Ertia saying we should be able to change the outcome is right but I'd still like to do it. Finally I think that Knives and John's planet is not Haven. To many weopens.

Onboard the Tiger Claw...

*Hours had passed since Pain finished his meal. He wondered when his next one was going to be as well as where he was and how he was going to escape. Pain tugged on the chained connected to the shackle on his wrist, trying to see if he could snap it from its anchor. It wouldn't snap no matter how hard he tried it wouldn't snap. Pain thought to himself*

Gorrammit what kind of metal is this thing made out of? I'm closer to snappin' my wrist than snappin' this ruttin' chain.

*Pain stopped as the door opened and the two armed men who where standing guard outside stepped in, accompanied by Melanie. The two men aimed their guns at Pain as Melanie stepped forward, a key in her left hand, and said to Pain*

I take it you enjoyed your meal Pain?

*Pain gave Melanie a sarcastic smile and said*

Yeah cold protein is my favorite.

*Melanie smiled and replied*

I'll tell that to the cook. I'm sure he won't mind making you cold protein while the rest of us dine on actual food. Now don't try anything stupid as I unlock your shackle.

*Pain replied in a cool tone, not once laying eyes on the two gunmen*

I already did somethin' stupid.

*Melanie cocked an eyebrow and replied*

Oh and what was that?

*Pain smiled and said*

I slept with you.

*Melanie's smile faded as she backhanded Pain, the sounded echoing off the walls of the room. Pain rubbed his jaw and said*

I see you still got some kick in that backhand of yours. Of course it did feel a little weak. I hope you ain't slippin'.

*Melanie brushed off Pain's remark, nodded to one of the gunmen to stand behind him, and said to Pain*

Enough of your idiotic banter. There's someone I'd like you to meet.

*Pain felt the barrel of an assault rifle dig into his back as he replied*

And who might this person be? Ooh is it the Prime Minister of Kiss My Pigu?

*Melanie smiled and said*

No Pain unfortunately the Prime Minister couldn't make it today. He was busy raping that little whore of yours.

*Pain heard a gunman laugh as the one behind him said*

Yeah she felt real good too. Kind of a shame we had to hurt her.

*Anger flared in Pain as he whirled around and punched the man hard in the mouth. Pain smiled as he heard and felt the man's front teeth snap and splinter. The next thing Pain felt was the butt of a pistol slamming into the side of his head. The blow knocked Pain unconscious and caused him to fall to the cold steel floor. The gunman held his other hand to his mouth, blood oozing out as he said*

That hun dan broke my teeth. Let me plug him right now Melanie.

*Melanie turned to the man and said in an authoritive tone*

That's not an option right now. Go to the infirmary and have the doc check you out.

*She turned to the other man and said*

You help me drag Pain to my quarters then fetch some bandages from the doc. Dong ma?

*The other man nodded and helped Melanie drag Pain down the corridor to her quarters.*
