OOC: I posted on the other thread, and have not gotten an answer to my question, or any responce at all. So, I am going to assume, not at all.
'There are some days in which I hate my job, and all the despicable and horrendous things I am forced to do'
Doc was sitting at her desk, staring forlornly at the piles of paperwork. Forms to fill, reports to read and write, requests to be aproved.
"Why in the world do I need to personally aprove a request to purchse more tolet paper?"
She muttered to herself. There was a brisk knock at the door.
"Come in"
In walked Private Johnson. He saluted Doc.
"Yes. What do you need?"
"Sir, There is a message for you. It just came in through the cortex. It's from Commander Apush, sir."
Doc set the files in her hand back down on her desk.
'I'll just have to sent those some other time.'
"Yes, I'll be right to the bridge."
'Looks like it's time to see what the brass wants.'
Col.Katarine Von Werston, Commander of the Alliance Battlecruser Miro, walked out of the room.
It is the possibilities of having a dream come true that make life interesting

The captain nodded and made arragements with those who wished to stay and even aquiring a new cook for the ship. John was excited about the food. Food was good. He lead the people to the available passenger dorms and found them all a place to stay. He walked into the cargo bay to see if Kaylee was still there; she needed to look at the leak he had patched before they left. Instead, he saw a woman he didn't recognize. "Can I help you?"

John: Can I help you?
*Cate looks at the man, and gives what she hopes is a winning smile*
Cate: Yeah, um... I'm looking to take passage on this ship… do you have room?
John: Depends on if you can pay.
Cate: Sure, I can pay in cashy money. Doesn’t even need to be a room… I'm comfortable as long as I can –
John: *knows the woman is rambling and feels that it's a habit for her* We can find you a part to set yourself.

"This way." So many knew people. It was overwhelming. For the last few months people had only left and only Inara returned, but now so many knew people. Of course there was a downside. People have secrets, dangerous secrets that could get someone hurt. He needed to find out these people's secrets before they could. There was an easy way if he couldn't figure out if they were potentially dangerous himself. He realized they could all be normal, but he wasn't very trusting and needed to know for sure. He walked into the bridge to find the captain talking to River about the course. "Everyone's settled captain, we're good to go."

Ivy was going to her bunk when she felt the ship take off. She always loved the feeling of leaving atmo, although she had done it quite infrequently. This new job postion was very exciting for her. She was out of the lab and into the world. Instead of just developing the plants, she was being able to see them get out into the world and actually get used. She knew that once she got to the end of her trip on this ship, that she would have to find a place to set up shop, but where she was would be just shiny until then.
Ivy opened the door and cheked out her bunk. It’s small, but it is nice. She unclutched her small bag and stuffed it under the mattress. That didn’t hide it very well, so she shoved it in the corner of the bed and put her pillow up against it. She stood up and inspected her work.
“It’ll be fine.”
She walked out to the cargo bay and noticed her order from the grain store had been delivered. She squealed and rushed out to it. There were three large crates. One was marked equipment. The other marked Edible/Genseed. The last one was marked Flower/Plants. She eagerly began to opened the crates and pulled some things out.
“I can’t believe they took your cortex link.”
“It’s no big deal,” Ivy answered. “I can live without it. They said they would give it back later”
“What if you need help? You don’t know these people.”
“I have a good feeling,” smiled Ivy. “It feels homey here.”
“If it is all the same to you, I’ll look into getting that link back to you.”
“It’s OK, Tommy,” sighed Ivy. “You worry too much.”
Ivy closed up her crates, gathered up her stuff and skipped cheerily off to her bunk while whistling a lively tune.
Meanwhile, on the bridge…
River stiffened a bit.
“Something wrong, Albatross?” Mal asked.
“Don’t know,” she answered.
“Don’t know?” Mal asked. “That doesn’t make me feel better.”
“Just got a glimpse…”
“Of what?” Mal asked, getting impatent.
“We may have a stowaway.”
“Jen dao mei,” Mal muttered as left the cockpit. “Guess I’ll be searching now. Now, where are the others? Some help would not go unnoticed.”

Kellen slung his bag up into the room before climbing the small ladder. It was small, but, Kellen had slept in smaller, and atleast this wasnt shared. Hell, he even liked the look of the Firefly, the feel. It had been a long time since he had stepped foot in one, not since a war lost. Neither did that matter, he truly felt "Serenity" here.

"Is it bad that I feel something has to be wrong 'Nara?" He found himself in her shuttle enjoying some tea. They had developed a relationship with each other that was therupeutic, with each sharing problem and getting the others advice. She knew most of his secrets and he knew many of hers, but the trust was solid.
"Well it only seems natural considering. We've had problem with mysterious passengers in the past if you've forgotten, but if they come to belong here, their problems won't matter and if this is only temporary, we can handle it."
John took a deep breath through his nose savoring the aroma of the tea. She was right, she was always right. They had been through hell and were still flying. "It just after what happened with Knives..." he felt a presence stern and emotionless except for a hint of worry mixed with anger. "Captain's coming"
He barged in in his normal fashion turning to John. "River thinks there might be a stowaway, think you can sniff out the passengers for me."
"Mal I find it hard to believe you still need reminding not to enter my shuttle." She was blushing, just a little. The captain and her had been excessively flirting in their normal way. Not to mention what had happened on Three Hills.
"Captain I'm not your personal psychic, get River to do it."
"River is flying my boat."
"Fine," he placed down his tea and stood, "but I can't make any promises."

Scathac stowed her sea bag, but left the long wooden case on the bed. She would have to check with Captain Reynolds about a place and a time to practice. First, however, she needed to relax. It had been a while since she had been among so many people. The noise of the docks had been stressful after the quiet of her family compound. Meditation would help her get the last of the cacophony out of her head. Scathac sat on her bed, pillow under her back side, legs crossed, back straight, eyes closed, clearing her mind of all of the dross the day had brought with it.

Cate, after being told the general do’s and don’ts on Serenity, is shown where she’ll be sleeping for her journey. She carefully makes sure her belongings aren’t in the way of her wanderings within her own room, making sure her writing equipment and few books she has aren’t in full view for sticky or wandering fingers. When done and unpacked, she stands there for a few seconds.
Cate: Ok… now what?

Kellen thought about settling down for the night, before deciding to get to know the other passangers.
He made a quick mental note that he needed to talk to the Captain later, his captain, if things go the way he wanted.
With that thought, Kellen made his way down the ladder. He picked a door at random and knocked...
(OOC: I don't care as too who carries it on, I just thought it would be good to get to know some of the others)
