Mal/Thorne move:

[MAL, THORNE, and SLIGHT have looked in every possible hiding place in the galley, even checking inside and behind the 'fridge. They have found no trace of Niska.]

MAL: "Nothin' here 'cept some leftover grub. Let's grab a bite before we head below. My stomach's gnawin' my backbone."

[All three ladle up bowls of BOOK's stew. THORNE tastes his, searches the cabinet for a bottle of hot sauce, applies several splashes, and tastes again.]

THORNE: "Oh, yeah. That'll make you sweat. Got anything around here to wash it down with?"

MAL: "Some o' that Blue Sun shiong mao niao JAYNE drinks, is all we got here."


[Both THORNE and SLIGHT pull a face. They've tasted Blue Sun before.]

THORNE: "Just water for me then, thanks."

[Still eating from their bowls, the three make their way down the aft stairs to begin searching the passenger quarters.]

Slight stops suddenly.
"Hwoon Dan. . ." he mutters, pointing to the hatch. He sighs. "Captain, you wouldn't happen to missing a suit would you?"

OOC-sorry for being out of the loop again.

Everyone Dies. Someone's carrying a bullet for you, doesn't even know it. The trick is, to die of old age before he finds you.

Zoe/Wash's Move:
Location: Bridge


ZOE and WASH search every nook, cranny, and possible hiding place on the bridge and find no sign of Niska.

They lock down the bridge and make their way through each of the crew's bunks, checking through possible hidey holes. They make a point of NOT going through any of the crew's personal things.

WASH: "Lambytoes, I really don't WANT to know what JAYNE's personal thoughts are, I find that concept frightening."

ZOE grins at her husband and shakes her head.

ZOE: "Dear, I don't think anyone wants access to JAYNE's personal thoughts."

They check the rest of the crew quarters, one by one. ZOE sighs as they find no evidence that Niska was ever up here.

ZOE: "Alright, we've finished this bit. Let's work our way through the galley next. Hopefully one of the others has found something."

WASH (uncharacteristically somber): "Hopefully they've found NISKA!"


They make their way to the galley, and find MAL and THORNE getting themselves some of the Shepherd's lovely stew, while SLIGHT stares at the hatch. WASH pointedly avoids the red-eyed man's gaze, finding a seat at the table. ZOE moves to the stove and gets herself some stew and looks at MAL.

ZOE: "No sign of NISKA on the bridge or in the crew quarters, Sir. You find anything?"

End Moves.

Inara's turn

LOCATION: COMMON ROOM COUCH

Inara sighs as she sits up on the couch, slowly stretching the kinks out of her back. Her momentary doze had yielded nothing but frenzied dreams of being tortured with bad beer. Niska kept pouring it down her throat and growling: "thees is the waaaay...eet is saaaafe...eet weel make you seeee" Inara sighs and shakes her head.

River is still sitting beside her, watching the infirmary closely.

INARA TO RIVER:
You sit here, sweetheart. You can play the game from here, can't you? I'm going to go see if anyone needs my help.

Inara stands, stretching once more, and sets off into the Infirmary. Simon is on the med-bed, breathing deeply into a mask, Book is turned away and Damon stands to the side looking pained.

Inara approaches the bed. Simon's face is turned away. his face is a bit grey and he strains to speak.... "Shepherd"....

Inara puts a hand on his, and bends down to eye-level. "Simon....I wanted to let you know River's all right--she's in the common room. Is there anything I need to do for you?"

End Inara's turn

Just a humble supplicant in service to all things Joss

Thorne/Mal move:

[As they head for the aft stairs, MAL hears SLIGHT speak, and everyone stops for a second.]

SLIGHT:"Captain, you wouldn't happen to missing a suit would you?"

MAL: "Oh, the empty rack? No. JAYNE has that'un down in his bunk to fix the comms." [to himself] "Been a month. Ta ma duh oughta be done by now."

[They turn at a sound from the galley, but it's just ZOE and WASH. They enter from the crew quarters, look around a second, and start getting some chow.]

ZOE:"No sign of NISKA on the bridge or in the crew quarters, Sir. You find anything?"

[MAL has just taken a bite of stew, so THORNE answers]

THORNE: "No ma'am. We've checked the engine room and the galley, even under the placemats, [he grins] but no snakes here. We're about to head down an' search the passenger quarters. Hey, that's a pretty good chow stew, isn't it?"

MAL: "Whas [swallows ] WASH! KAYLEE says we're 'bout ready to fly. When you're done feedin' your face, get up to th' bridge an' pre-flight Serenity, then get down the the cargo bay. We'll finish lookin' below and meet you there. ZOE, you gather up KAYLEE an' JAYNE, and that Ruth Anne girlie. We'll get them as can move from the infirmary."

Book's Move

Location: Infirmary

Book's concern for Damon shows on his face, and he puts a hand on Damon's shoulder.

Book to Damon, softly.

"We'll get you fixed up right. Why don't you lie back down?"

Book turns back to Simon as he hears him call out "Shepherd." Inara has entered and she stands next to Simon talking quietly, offering words of comfort and help. Book steps back over to Simon and leans over him again.

Book to Simon

"I'm here son. What is it?"

As Book waits expectantly for some words to give meaning to chaos, he looks up to Inara and notes that she is also waiting with a similar expression.

Zoe's/Wash's Move:
Location: Galley

MAL: Whas [swallows ] WASH! KAYLEE says we're 'bout ready to fly. When you're done feedin' your face, get up to th' bridge an' pre-flight Serenity, then get down the the cargo bay. We'll finish lookin' below and meet you there. ZOE, you gather up KAYLEE an' JAYNE, and that Ruth Anne girlie. We'll get them as can move from the infirmary."


WASH gets up and moves toward the bridge. ZOE watches her husband leave, then looks at MAL.

ZOE: "Sir, I suggest we go check through the passenger dorm and the infirmary before we head to the cargo bay. More likely than not that he holed up there, hoping to hurt us some. And the girl's name is ROWAN."

---

WASH walks onto the bridge, sits down in his big comfy chair, and begins pushing the buttons for the pre-flight sequence.

End Moves.

Slights move.
Slight takes one of the Blue Sun beers. He takes a long pull, and sighs. It tastes like recycled moose piss, but he actually never could get enough of it. Slight decides t try to talk to that doctor again, and see if he's done hitting him.
