ZACHSMIND-I'm so totally into your idea. Perhaps we could have Mal abducted and "recruited" by Independents or questioned by Alliance intel after landing on New Hikido? This could be premise for new RP adventure without breaking continuity of current story. Perhaps addition of new characters as well as usage of established ones. Yes! I'm liking it. Think we should draw up some sort of general outline of new RP adventure though. To keep story moving along and introduction of characters in a logical progression. Maybe could focus on other characters interaction and Mal takes a back seat in story?

Yeah, Humble and I have great plans of World Domination. I'll get them for you, if you ask.

I find narrating for other characters a bit daunting. I'm usually afraid to do it, because I think the RP'er will think I'm trying to step on their creative toes.
So it's ok to narrate a little bit of people's part in the story?
I'd appreciate a little guidance on this subject ;)

It can be daunting, and I wouldn't do it to much extent for already existing cast members. I would say that you can take a little leeway with their reactions to what you say and give them an occasional few words to help everything out, but for characters who are non-cast, we should go crazy and have fun... like talking to the Alliance people or a bartender or dock worker or port control or any number of things.

I have an idea for a Kaylee side-story...not something she goes off and does, so much as something she can do in relation to Serenity. Any objections to me taking a little creative license?

Not from me!
I am guilty of already working on a character arc (side story) for Simon.
But it will play out over several 'episodes'.
I hope you folks'll like it.
That is what made Firefly (for me)... character arcs that didn't have to be wrapped up in the 40 or so minutes alloted.

By all means, take creative liberties! I can't wait to see what develops. Weehoo!

Thanks for the words of encouragement! Actually, this idea came from my hubby, and I've decided to run with it. It will slowly unfold over time. Hope I can keep up with all of the excellent story-tellers here!

Hey folks! RavenWhyteWing has asked to join our little adventure as another passenger. His character is a Blue Sun defector. He's pretty new, so I've sent him instructions for how to post to this thread (and the IC thread). We should be hearing from him regarding some character info/integration soon.
Yay! *claps hands*
