Life Onboard Serenity is a text based RPG, anyone can play anyone can join.
Rules:
No killing of other author’s characters or of canon characters. In that vein, try to keep canon characters acting like themselves.
Please try to post with consideration for fellow authors and with some consistency to current story lines.
Sub-plots are great and we welcome them, but please try to make them fit into the current stories as much as possible.
Oh, and please keep things as close to PG as possible. If you have a more adult scene you'd like posted, post it as a spoiler.
NEW CHARACTERS WELCOME! but try to keep it realistic.

Story so far: serenity have got some new passengers, possibly some prospective crewmembers, and perhaps more than they bargained for. we had a bit of a rumpus (or was it a ruckus? maybe a fracas?) with a passenger, who then turned out to be two passengers, but only the resedent psychics know, so shhhh.*puts finger to lips*
Wolf came back and mal decided to go to beylix to check out the new browncoats, 13 came back because he got bored. but enough about back lets go forward or at least In A Vaguely Frontwardsy Type Direction...

OOC: In trying to backread some of the past threads, I found that the links for the list above no longer work. The site addresses have changed just a wee bit. Here is the updated list with links that work.
I also found a couple that were missed in the original list.

Taichi scuttles around for a bit, when he hears voices. He follows them, then hides securely. Satisfied that no-one was going to find him, he settles down to wait and record, as he had been trained to do.
(quote entire conversation between Ivy/Tommy, John, and River here.)
*after River departs, Taichi doesn't hear anything else, so he runs back to Aiko. He scratches on the door, and Aiko lets him in quickly. De-attaching the recording device, she gives Taichi some more of the pellets, praising him, then lets him back into her internal pocket. She then pulls an earplug-looking thingy out from yet another pocket, attaches it to the recorder machine, and listens to the convo- with no sound escaping the ear bud, ensuing that no-one knows she's spying. It is also hidden by her hair, completely, just in case someone burst in.*
OOC- in this paragraph, Aiko is actually thinking to herself, not really talking. This is also the case for all the monologues. I'm sorry I didn't make this clear before.
Interesting... So she has split personalities? It could be difficult to negociate with her... mustn't let her know I know, though. Should be easy enough, though. Tommy probably wouldn't come out if I'm talking, not like I'd be threatening her... though now I know to make sure not to threaten her at all, Tommy seems formidable... They're psychic?!
*Aiko feels a strong flash of fear, wondering if they could feel her, read her, even now, locked in her compartment. She tries to control her emotions, and think of only inane things, but can't really succeed, her fear is too strong, fear of being invaded, her private thoughts all out there for them to know, be able to blackmail her with everything, destroy her life if they felt like it. She finally manages to focus on little inane thoughts, though she can't rid herself of her fear*
I should probably pop by over Ivy's bunk, see if she has any strawberries... I love strawberries, and oranges, I wonder if she has any oranges, though probably not they grow on trees and she isn't likely to bring a tree aboard a ship, and even if she did bring a sapling it wouldn't be bearing fruit... ah well... I'm going insane with boredom here, I could go to the commons area, I could most probably get away with it without making people nervous, most people get on a ship and want to socialize, it's no big deal. All right, lets see who I meet there; maybe I can get myself calmed down.
*gets up and walks into the commons area, and runs into John. She freezes, trying to think of something to excuse herself with, while fighting the urge to bolt right then.*

As the woman hit John he felt it. She was nervous, and that normally only meant one thing.
"What do younot want me to know?" he was sick of this, the secrets. Secrets had gotten Wash and Book killed. Secrets had destroyed his childhood. He hated secrets.

OoC: thank you kindly.
*as Wolf was escorted away from the docking bay of the alliance battleship, headed who knows where, he stole a glance back toward the clear plastic tube connecting his little ship to the behemouth that he now was aboard. in the breif time his eyes had to sweep the scene, he saw many engineers, some officials, and one pair of eyes that chilled him to the core, they locked on to his and a sinister knowing smile twiched across the face of their owner.*
Wolf: um, sir...may i retreive something from my ship? its very important.
Guard 1: no talking.
Wolf: but my friend if you don't allow me to go back, im afraid one of your friends in the orange boiler suits will stumble apon it and perhaps people will die.
Guard 1: is that a threat you cockney worm?
Wolf: cockney...COCKNEY, *voice gets more upper class with every word* im terribly sorry but im afraid your ignorance is showing my good man, be a dear and tuck it back in before someone notices.
Guard 1: NO TALKING!
*as Wolf was dragged away, still trying to negotiate with his captors. the unseen watcher smiled to himself, he had missed Wolf when the whole Miranda incedent happend, his attentions were then concentrated on someone else, but not this time, this time would be the end of Wolf Quickthews...and maybe while he was at it, maybe he would kill that blasted Reynolds man as well, remove that little obsticle from the path of the alliance.
Mystery Person: these browncoats must not be tolerated if we are to survive.

Ivy put her gun away and grabbed her blanket. Then she made her way towards the common area couch. As she walked by, she caught John and one of the other passengers. John was very tense. She passed by the common area, looking for an alternate place to sleep. She saw a weight bench on the other side of the cargo bay, but Tommy had told her to try to follow the rules. Instead, she made the trek to the infirmary and laid down on the bed against the wall and quickly fell asleep.
Meanwhile, on the bridge...
River sat in the pilot's chair, looking out into the black. She wiped back some tears as she thought about Ivy's background. So much pain, anguish and guilt. It was horrific, but Ivy was a stronger woman than she herself thinks. She just hid behind her alternate personality to dull the pain.
Mal was coming, so River wiped away her tears quickly.
"Flying true, lil' Albatross?"
"She is."
Mal looked down at her and saw that her eyes were puffy. It didn't take a psychic to know that she had been crying.
"Something bad going to happen?"
"Already did," whispered River.

He rushed across the building, they had demanded that he give an update every hour, or if something happened. And something had happened.
"There is only one reason that Albatrax could be this late getting the file to us. He must have been compromised."
"There are a thousand reasons that the files could be late. He could be sick, or delayed, or been sent on a mission, or even had more difficulty than expected getting the files."
This was the argument that reached his ears as he entered the board room.
"Albatrax has probably been compromised,and is probably dead."
"Unless the files arrive inthe next 2 hours, we will have no choice but to assume that Albatrax has been compromiced, and act acordingly."
"About that sir." He spoke for the first time since cominginto the room. "I came to tell you that Albatrx is alive and uncompromiced, we have just receved the files sir. Here they are."
He handed the files to the general.

*Aiko's eyes go wide with fear. He'd felt her, the shield wasn't working, any minute now he'd break entirely into her mind! She gets absolutely filled with fear, with the flight instinct, she turns to run, run away. She slips on the slick floor and collapses, hitting her head and effectively knocking herself out.*

John didn't trust the girl but he had to do something. He scooped her up and carried her to the infirmary. He had hoped to find Simon there, but found only ivy. "You need to get out of here right away." He walked to the door and pushed the comm link. "Captain and Simon, we've got an injured passenger come quickly." He thought for a moment, he couldn't figure out what she was hiding but he knew someone who could. "River when you get the chance you might want to come too."

The commotion in the room caused Ivy to stir. Still exhausted and her mind a bit foggy, she opened her eyes.

She nodded and stumbled out of the infirmary. She looked around and spotted a weight bench at the far end of the cargo bay. She wearily went over to it, laid down and used her blanket as a pillow.
As she fell back asleep, she hoped no one would be upset that she slept there.
