"This is what you do for fun?" I asked Mal, somewhat incredulously. He fixed a burning look at me, and I could already tell he was close to shouting. Something had ticked him off, but then again, he seemed to be ticked off a lot with me around.
"What? Like you got somethin' better?" he said, and his eyes returned to the game, and he cheered as the mysterious Nico made an easy shot.
"There's chess," I said, "or checkers. Riddling, speed, War, Super War..."
"What's Super War?" Mal asked with interest.
" 'It's a lot like War, except you slam the cards down a lot harder,' " I said with a grin, remembering that line from the immortal A. Lee Martinez.
Mal grunted, and I exhaled. I'd never been one for physical sports; cards and strategy were more my thing.

"I told you Kaylee I suck at hoopball" replied John just as Guy got smacked in the head with the ball.
"Gorrammit Jayne what the hell!!" yelled Guy as he rubbed his head.
Jayne grinned and said "Sorry Guy, guess I jus' didn't see ya there."
Guy glared at Jayne and replied "Like hell you did!"
"Ya gonna do somethin' 'bout it lil' man?" taunted Jayne.
"You bet your pigu I will!" yelled Guy just as he lunged at Jayne.
The two of them were about to go at it when Mal yelled "That's enough! Jayne apologize to Guy for hittin' him in the head with the ball right now, or you're on septic vac duty for a year!"
Jayne sneered and muttered "Fine." Turning to Guy, he said "Sorry for hittin' ya in the head with the ball, Guy. It ain't my fault ya got a big head."
Guy bunched up his fists and then went after Jayne.

*wolf ran over too the corner of the bay while the others were sorting out jaynes "big head" theory, he grabbed the little card he'd hidden when they were last planetside.*
wolf" kaylee, could you come over here a minuit?"
*she ran up*
kaylee" yeah?"
wolf" i was scanning the cortex, and i saw that on earth that was, they had a old tradition, an annual holiday called valentine. i thought, good idea, so i got you this."
*kaylee looked at the odd little card, clearly confused by the gift yet happy of the gesture.*
kaylee" thats sweet, i didn't get you anything."
wolf" thats ok, i.."
*he was cut short by kaylees kiss.*
kaylee" now i gotchya somthin'"
*she smiled and they went back to the game.*

"I still think there are better people for you." John said as he was trying to get the ball from Kaylee later.
"And I still don't care." Kaylle said attempting to move past him. John then stole the ball right out of her hands and threw it straight through the hoop. Kaylee stood there shocked. "I suck, right"
"Sometimes I get lucky. But then somethimes I think I got lucky but I really didn't because there's and elegible doctor whose completely infatuated with me who my childhood friend happens to think is really cool. "
"You suck"

Sorry, i'm back. Gald to see your all still having fun. 
And now i wanna play hoopball 
"Wow. Thats quite a story," Choo said, cursing that 2.30 in the morning feeling.
"Were getting off as soon as we hit the dir- the ground." Simon stated from the other end of the wave. With the others plaing Hoopball he could easily access the Cortex without anyone knowing " I Was just wondering if you knew any place we could stay? Seeing that were well..."
"Yeah. i know," Choo replied, double checking the wave was still secue from prying eyes. The Syndicate's tech was top of the range, with stuff not even the goverment could crack. "Gonna be hard, but i do know a few safe ships that are always looking for an extra pair of hands. Out a good word in if you want. But..its gonna cost ya."
"How much??" Simon enquired nervously
Choo gave a wickid grin: "Your dorm. Tis the only one with sound proofing from what i've heard..."
"Ah," Simon said slowly, thoughts mulling over "I didn't know that..."

Remember: When introducing Zoe to your shiny new ship, pay attention to where she's pointing when she says "What is that?" That's where you're going to be laying, bleeding someday.

No need to apologize, Choo.
Meanwhile in the Cargo Bay
The game was still going on with Wash's team trailing by four. Guy and Jayne had gotten over their little spat and were playing more competively than ever. Zoe was having a fun time playing keep away from Wash with the ball and Kaylee was just having fun.
"Foul!" shouted Guy as John knocked him onto the ground.
Wash hollered back to Guy "There aren't any fouls in hoopball Guy, unless you count Jayne's body odor."
"Hey I told ya already that's a manly smell, little man!" griped Jayne as he took the ball from Zoe.
"Yeah it's manly only to you Jayne. To the rest of us it's revolting." quipped Wash who intercepted Jayne's pass and scored another point for his team.

Finally after a long flight the Ship touched down on Beaumonde. Even with the game of hoopball tension still filled the air. The captain had hurried off the ship. John knowing how these change offs could go quietly accopaanied him. Kaylee caught up after a short while and made her protests to the captain. John had expected them. When they made it to the watering hole where the trade offtook placed Kaylee stormed past him. What'd he say to her now John thought as he followed her. "Kaylee!" he shouted. "Wait up."
"What's eating you." he asked.
"I'm just sick of people leavin'," she replied holdin back tears.
"You had no particular attachment with him anymore. Why is this hitting you so hard?"
"It's nothin"
"Cause last time I checked you and Wolf...you still love him."
"No"
"Darlin I'm an impath lyin ain't gonna do much."
"Okay maybe I do"
"That's not fair to Wolf"
"I know"
"Well you have to choose between them"
"Well pretty easy choice with Simon leavin"
Suddenlythey heard the sound of fighting from within the bar. John looked up and saw Simon rush in. "Maybe not" he said as he turned to follow him

When Simon entered the Maidenhead he saw lots of people laying on the floor. Some of them were breathing and some weren't. In the midst of the apparent chaos were Mal and River. Mal was near the weapon repository and River was standing a little ways from the stairs, both had guns pointed at each other.
Looking at his sister while at Mal's side, Simon called down "Eta kooram nah smech."
With that, River fell limp to the floor asleep, dropping the gun to the floor. Mal then rushed down the stairs to the fallen River and scooped her up.
Peering at Jayne who was on the ground, Mal said "Jayne you all right?"
"Gorram twerp grabbed my man parts and gave them an awful squeezin' Mal." groaned Jayne as he got up, clutching his crotch.
"So you're ok then?" asked Mal.
Jayne sneered at Mal and said "We leavin'?"
"Yeah." replied Mal. Looking up at the stairway Mal said to Zoe and Wash "Let's get outta here 'fore anyone calls the local authorities."
"Yes sir." replied Zoe.
Wash looked at the scene below and said "A nice romantic meal at a seedy bar and a show. It doesn't get much better than that. Right hon?"
Zoe gave Wash a punch in the arm, which caused Wash to winch.
"Ow what was that for?" asked Wash as everyone headed out of the Maidnhead.
"Nothin' dear, just a little love tap." replied Zoe, smiling.
"That was a love tap? It felt more like a love punch to me." quipped Wash, rubbing the spot on his arm where his wife punched him.

Choo dumped his trusty hiking bag onto the bed of his passenger dorm. Back on Serenity after his stay off world, the merchant patted his money filled money bag.
"Yep. Good haul," he muttered to no one in particular, happy things had gone well, Choo slumped into a nearby chair, aiming to get a good, peaceful and hopefully undisturded fourty winks....
