JADEHAND


*JadeHand takes Mai by the hand and escorts her over to the lounge chairs. On the way they pass by Sparky, dutifully performing his job as cabana boy*

"Sparky! Hey, could you bring me a pint of Cider and something sweet and fruity with one of those little umbrellas in it for the lady?"

Sparky: "Might I suggest a Mai Tai?"

"Well Sparky," JadeHand replies as his other hand strokes his chin, "I did have some plans involving Mai tied for a bit later but I don't think that's really anybodies busi....OH! the drink. Umm Sure. Sounds great. Thanks, Sparky. We'll be over here."

*They continue over to the chairs and have a seat as JadeHand Turns on the sunlamp in hopes of getting a littled drier prior to round 3.*

*Moments later Sparky delivers the drinks, Glasses clink, and the couple relax and sip their beverages. The Diving/Swimming competition continues."

So Seryn was holding back out of fear, SR concluded.








SR lay there, thinking, with Seryn wrapped in his arms. He understood her motivation, but somehow he was having trouble figuring out what to do. The lady had taught him well, the ways of women, but that had been a very long time ago and he was very rusty.

MCQ


After being absent during the first phase of the pageant, McQ sees many people are now leaving the common room. He helps tidy things up a bit, then takes a seat on a nearby sofa, rubbing his left temple with his metallic fingertips.

"Ahh, silence at last," he says outloud but mostly to himself. He observed the opening events from outside the common room yet all the commotions, fireworks and excitement sprouted him a mite of a headache. He gets up from the sofa and decides to find the medical bay, where he'll seek out an aspirin.

SERYN




Seryn turns to face him again, a solemn look on her face.

"SR?"

I looks at her, expression intense, and she wavers for a moment.She lets her fingers play along the contours of his face, and the look softens a bit. She nods slightly, as if to say 'that's better'

"You know, if you really did love me..." She intensity returns, his hand reached up to smooth back her hair, gentle strokes above her ear, but she greeted it now with a small mischevious smile "If you really did... you'd get up and go feed my rabbits so that I don't have to get out of this nice warm bed..."

He flung her a look of exasperation tempered with amusement, and climbed out of the bed, as he did so whipping the covers back so quickly that she shreiked with the sudden cold and had no choice but to throw a pillow at him.

"oh, and bring back breakfast!"

JADEHAND


*JadeHand lays out on the lounge chair, carefully setting his drink down on the floor so that he can roll over and dry his back as well. He leans over to Mai as if to whisper something into her ear. As she leans towards him, he moves slighty and kisses her check. "Chinese.... I think we should have Chinese tonight... and Chocolate Cream Pie for dessert." He rolls back onto his stomach and lays there, smiling, as he fades into a nap.*

JADEHAND


*A hour or so later, feeling much drier and rested, JadeHand raises up and sees the sleeping Mai beside him. He quietly stands and slides his lounge chair up against hers. He turns off the sun lamp. He returns to the chair, eases up beside her and slips under the blanket. Arm around her body, chest against her back, he fades back into dreamland.*

right, time to go do something then.

Seeing as i'm awake.

What to do.. what to do...

oh, that llama still needs to be washed, still smells bad


Inwardly cursing her excess energy, and the fact that the watter balloons couldn't be fired from a distance, she gets up and heands to the shower.

Hang on, five minutes of close proximity to the llama, a shower would be pretty much wasted. When i get back.

opting to simply change into old clothes, she leaves a note on SR's pillow telling him where she's gone and makes her way out of the ship.

Half an hour later after several fruitless attempts to approach the animal, and wasted crys of here llammy llama!, she lies on her belly in the undergrowth, leaves in her hair, watching the ususpecting llama trot daintily towards her carefull laid (and very humane!) trap, feasting on the cinnabuns she'd laid out as a lure.

one step closer...

another...

only one more....

JADEHAND


*JadeHand stirs. The absence makes him less able to sleep. He stands, now dry, and straightens his clothing. He gazes around at the others, some still preparing their diving/swimming performances. Not seeing the one he seeks, he strolls out of the pool area and towards the common room. He spots Mai near the kitchen collecting containers of food. JadeHand walks up behind her. A hand placed on each shoulder, he draws his face close to her head and breathes in her scent. His hands glide slowly down her arms to her hips and slide forward to meet as he pulls her to him. He kisses the back of her head and eases his head to the right to kiss her neck.*

"Hey, ohhhh, Chinese. Yummy. let's get it to go. We'll take one of these carts back to my place for a picnic. *sniff* oh sesame chicken. My favouite. How did you know?"

*Mai smiles. The cart is loaded with various Chinese dishes and large bowls of steamed rice. Soup and cruchy noodles. Steamed gyoza, chopsticks, and large pitchers of water are placed on the cart. Two chocolate cream pies are added before they depart. They turn and roll the cart off to an elevator and head down the south wing to JadeHand's room. He sets the table and serves the food. Lighting the candles as Mai sits across from him. They make small talk, discussing their likes, their dislikes, their beliefs, their wants and desires. There are smiles and laughter and hopes and dreams. They finish their meals and sit gazing through the flaming tongues of candles at each other. A hand stretched out on the table is taken without being noticed. Eyes locked on one another, they stand and blow out the candles. Walking quietly back to the bedroom, they turn out all the lights and find haven in the black and heaven in each others' arms.*

NEEDY

The road to Hel is paved with good intentions


After drying himself off, Needy turns to his sponsor, the appropriately named "That Weird Girl"

"So, how did I do?" he asks her

"Fine. You did fine."

"Just fine?"

"You did good" she encourages him

"Thanks." he smiles with a proud grin. After he lets the thought of accomplishment sink in, he then asks her "So... what's next? What's Round 3?"

Contestant 2: Bobbie Sue, Bride6

From high over the water park, Bobbie Sue waves at everyone. She is at the top of one of the pair of three-storey-high water slides, dressed in a skimpy bikini and wearing roller blades. Suddenly, she launches herself out onto the slide. With ever-increasing speed, she spirals down the water slide on her roller blades, occasionally losing her balance but never falling. Finally she shoots out over the water, bounces a few times like a skipped stone, and then she slowly sinks, all the while smiling and holding her arms up like Vanna White spinning a vowel.

Next, we will have the talent portion of our contest! Oh, by the way, is there anyone else interested in being a judge? At the moment, we only have Malicious and Serenity, and I think Malicious is asleep.

I know what you mean. I've been through a lot of things that I wish I could forget. At the time they all seemed like senseless torture, But if they all somehow made me ready for this, Then they were worth it.

*He lets a small laugh escape*

Always knew that pain lead to pleasure. Speaking of which....

*A few hours later they emerge from the room wearing simple robes. A lamp is turned on to light their path as they travel back to the table.*

"Oh, Fortune cookies!"

*JadeHand cracks open the fortune cookie and slips out the small piece of paper. He eats the cookie, careful to wash it all down before reading the fortune.*

"There are many unexpected and thrilling surprises in store for you." Ummmm... yes I imagine that's true. What does yours say?

*Mai slips the fortune from her cookie and reads it, "You have a friendly heart and are well admired."*

"Ahh! Also true. I do admire you. Care for some dessert? "

*JadeHand pulls the two chocolate cream pies from the fridge and carries one to a side table as he cuts two slices and places them on small plates. He turns to hand Mai a slice as he wonders why she lingered in the kitchen....
A sqeee escapes her lips as he calmly sets the two slices back on the table.*

"It's all fun and games until someone loses a pie."
*He says with as much of a strait face as he can muster under all of the gooey chocolatey mess. He reaches out quickly to grab her as she squees again and runs back into the dark of the bedroom. In pursuit he tackles her to the bed and spins her over, pressing his face to hers to share the mess.. brief playful struggle leads to warmth of passion as the world fades away from them again.*

The llama creeps closer and closer, it stoops to wrap its mouth around the last cinnabun, its shifting feet inches away from the edge of the rope she had laid down.

She watched with baited breath as the animal shifted his weight forward... raised one hoof....

Seryn shoots up, and her head connects painfully with a branch above her. Stars break out across her vision, and she lets loose a very un-Captain Nell like shriek, which startles the burping llama into flight.

Swearing, she bursts out of the bushes, running full pelt at the beast, only narrowly avoiding catching herself in her own trap by hopping a few steps.

Shwartz slows, recognising a familiar face, then spots the bridle in her hand, and does his very best to bugger off.

But its too late, having caught him up she put one arm around his neck and manages to get the bridle over his head. The llama trips about and pulls in all directions, but after working out that nothing hurts, he calms. Further pacified by a big handful of strawberries, they walk over to where Snarky waits with a hose and a big bucket of shampoo.

Feeding him strawberries all the while, Seryn and Snarky manage to clean every inch of the llama, quick as a flash, by the end of it, Shwartz starts to realise that it isn't so bad, and even starts to help, preening himself and allowing her to blow dry the hair fuzz on his head into a large Elvis quiff.

"oh such a good Llama! Wonderful beastie!" Seryn throws her arms around his neck, hugging him.

A few moments later she realises exactly what she's doing. "Aarrgh!" She breaks away, staring, "oh my good lord I must have hit my head really really gorramn hard..." She stares at the llama, who at least has the good grace to look embarressed, then turns and walks back to SR's room. Slipping through the door and smiling uncertainly at SR, she tries very hard to think about pancakes and not about how she appears to actually think the llama is sweet.

Back in the field, despite Snarky's best efforts, after admiring his reflection for a while, the llama find a wet patch of mud and sets whole new standerds for the sport of Wallowing.

(ooc- I was kind of hoping Cozen would be back for that, would have been amusing. Ah well)

"The idea was rely on the llama's appetite to do all the hard work. One loop around the foot, reins over the head, copious quantities of strawberries, one happy clean neutral smelling llama."

*fixes him with a significant look*

"only it didn't quite go that way..."

she grabs a pancake and ignoring SR's gesture to little things like plates and syrups, starts to tear bits off and eat them, eyes rolling with pleasure.

"oh my I didn't realise how hungry I was."

SR grins, a small little smile, and she pokes him on the shoulder. He grins again when she asks what he wants to do for the rest of the day. "I don't mean that... we can do anything, we have the entire tree and now an entire forest to play in. What do you want to do?"

Commune with the animals? I think that's only legal in Iowa. Or is it Delaware?

However, if anyone should wish to communicate with the animals, I do have a translation unit here, it will allow you to hold accurate if basic conversations with beasts.

I'd demonstrate but I don't seem to have a suitable subject to test it on. Oh wait, TWG, can you come over here a second?

*JadeHand looks up at Mai with a smile on his face and licks his lips.*

"Ummm... yes that might be what they mean. So much for wearing that suit though."

*He looks at the floor where chocolate cream covered clothing is scattered from one side of the room to the other. He slowly moves his hands up the bed and pulls himself up to meet her face to face. *

"Let's get cleaned up and meet the others. Where did I leave my guitar? Oh, I'll find it. Let's get out of here for a bit. We'll come back and clean up after the performance."

*The couple drag each other out of bed and to the shower. Washing the pie from each others hair and body. They soon find themselves squeaky clean and drying themselves. Returning to the bed room, they drag clothing from the closet and get dressed. Fighting back the urge to put off the competition for another few hours, they force themselves out of the door and back to the common room. There they see the stage being prepared for the talent potion, and JadeHand spots his guitar still sitting by the couch where he left it before the swimming portion of the gala.*

"Oh yeah. Great I should be ready to go on in a bit........ Thank you, for finding us. I'm not sure how to make this clear, but you, you mean the world to me."



"You landed in my life Like a new and brighter light
That made all my past seem in shadow
I always used to believe That beauty was skin deep
But I need a new word to describe you
And the time that it took to take down the wall
Was the time that it took for me to fall
Hopelessly weak.

"sounds like a plan.

so shall I pack lunch or did you want to do it?

And which shuttle did you want to take, we'll probably need to tell TRM."

She finishes the last of the pancake and pauses. SR, in the act of standing up, stops and looks at her.

"what, whats up?"

She smiles, and points to the corner of her mouth, and SR, earning bonus points for mid reading, kisses her lightly, smile on his own lips.

"Right!" She grins, uncurling her self from the chair "Things to do... this is a beach... am I going to need a swim suit?"

*JadeHand looks up at the stage and sees that all is ready for part three of the competition. He stands and es Mai on the head, then turns and heads for the stage.*

"*Cough* Hello everyone. I'm JadeHand and for the talent portion of this Gala I'm just going to perform a little song. No, you don't get points for guessing who it's by. But, I hope you enjoy it. I think it suits me a bit."

*JadeHand Begins strumming the guitar and sings*

I'm the man of a thousand faces
A little piece of me in every part I take
I hold the tape for a thousand races
A different point of view in every speech I make
Cut me a piece of my divided soul
Cry me a river, call it rock and roll
Give me an attitude and watch me make it lie
Pass me a microphone
I need to testify
Well I speak to machines with the voice of humanity
Speak to the wise with the voice of insanity
Speak to the present in the past and future tense
Speak to a slave with the voice of obedience

I'm the man of a thousand ages
You see my face in the stones of the Parthenon
You hear my song in the babble of Babylon
I'm the man of a thousand riches
Be my guest at the feast of Satyricon
You spend the money that my logo's printed on

Well I'll speak to machines with the voice of humanity
Speak to the wise with the voice of insanity
Speak to the present in the past and future tense
Speak to a slave with the voice of obedience

I stole a fire but it burned up much too soon
I took a leap and I landed on the moon
Look at my life and it looks like CNN
You see something once
You know it's gonna come around again

Well I'll speak to machines with the voice of humanity
Speak to the wise with the voice of insanity
Speak to a woman with the fatal charm of a snake
Forgive like a giver and account for all I take
Yes, I speak to machines with the voice of humanity
Speak to the wise with the voice of insanity
Speak like a leader with the voice of power and command
And when I talk to God I know he'll understand

Cause I'm the man of a thousand faces
Yes I'm the man of a thousand faces

I stole a fire but it burned up too much too soon
I took a leap and I landed on the moon

Voice of command
Voice of a snake
Voice of humanity
Voice of insanity
Voice of obedience
Thousand faces
Thousand races
Cry me a river
Steal a fire
Face in the stars
Stones in the Parthenon
Babble of Babylon
Landed on the moon




"You landed in my life Like a new and brighter light
That made all my past seem in shadow
I always used to believe That beauty was skin deep
But I need a new word to describe you
And the time that it took to take down the wall
Was the time that it took for me to fall
Hopelessly weak.

She finishes the last of the pancake and pauses. SR, in the act of standing up, stops and looks at her.

"what, whats up?"

She smiles, and points to the corner of her mouth, and SR, earning bonus points for mid reading, kisses her lightly, smile on his own lips.

"Right!" She grins, uncurling her self from the chair "Things to do... this is a beach... am I going to need a swim suit?"

"I made breakfast you can pack lunch."

"Any shuttle will do I'm not particular"

"Swimsuit,...bring, the beach is very secluded, we don't have to wear anything, but you can decide when we get there."

"ok, deal."

She makes her way to the kitchen, through the almost deserted coridors, and packs up a lunch basket. She sticks a note to the fridge to tell people where they've gone, then swings by her room on the way to the hangar bay to pick up a blanket and cushions, towels and a bikini and spend a little time with her rabbits, then heads to the bay where SR waits. They climb into the Nandi (nice and small for easier landing) and are away within moments.

(who wants one of the baby rabbits?)

CONTESTANT 2: Bobbie Sue

For her talent competition, Bobbie Sue puts on her tap shoes and her pretty pink dress with ruffles (the short one, this time) and does a tap dance while she sweetly sings, "On the Good Ship Lollipop".

Bobbie Sue, Bride6



P.S. And she SO would like a pet bunny, too!

They climb into the Nandi (nice and small for easier landing) and are away within moments.

**********************************************************






SR takes the controls and zips the Nandi along at a quick, but reasonable clip. He heads west across plains and then over mountains.

He glances over at Seryn and their eyes meet.
"You are so lovely.” he says before he looks back to the windscreen.
She blushes.
The Nandi drops down between two rocky crags and followed a winding river between them.
Seryn starts to wonder what SR is up to.
"You did say we were going to the beach right?"
"Yep." Says SR in a very laconic moment.
"And this is the scenic route?"
SR looks at her with smiling eyes and nods slowly. Without looking forward he pulls the Nandi into a climb and they rise above the terrain and then angle away on a new vector. Ahead of them the mountains fall away and are replaced with a deep forest that have a solid wall of fog at their top.
"I don't think that's the beach." She says and fixes a suspicious gaze on SR.
"I promise that we are going to the beach and if you are not pleased you can stake me to the ground cover me in chocolate and let you rabbits chew on me till I die from shock and blood loss."
"Hmmm." grunts Seryn.
SR lands the Nandi in a clearing and hops out.
"Beach?!?!?!" sneers Seryn.
SR points west, "That way, one point two klicks."
“Why not land on the beach”
“Fog’s, dangerous,”
Seryn crosses her arms across her chest and looks away from him in a dismissive manner.
"Listen," says SR. In the distance there is audible the whoosh and crash of surf.
Seryn stands and get out of the Nandi.
"My rabbits will eat well."
"Time will tell."
Seryn follows SR along a footpath through a lush green forest of redwoods and she notices that fog is thinning. The path takes as a turn and there below them is wide-open beach brightly lit by the sun in a cove protected by outcrops to the north and south. Off shore maybe three hundred meters is a small island covered entirely with more trees. The beach is strewn with driftwood. Towards the south end of the beach a small fresh water stream flows into the sea.
SR points to the stream. “There’s a hot spring there, if you find the ocean too cold.”
Seryn sees small brown shapes scampering amidst the driftwood.
“What’s that?” She asks
“Otters, welcome to the lost coast."

OOC: I tried to write a post with shadow and ghost, but really i could not think of what to do with them. For now assume they passed out somewhere asleep and they may or may not return after the pagent since they can't participate (i'm not good writing pure sillyness), and there are only so many ways i can think of for them to wander off and get lost. I truly enjoyed writing on the tree but there isn't a place at the moment for my characters so I shall wait and see if a time arises.

Well lets see. I found Fred when I got lost or rather accidentally fell through the time and space portal thing at the bottom of the tree in zoid's pub on earth-that-still-is. He was just so cute I had to bring him back with me. He mostly hangs out in the This Land Park now that he's got lots of other animal type friends to play with.

Molly is a slighty different, and perhaps weirder story. She is the clone of Cozen's parrot, Black Jack Silver (?) who sadly died. Or is currently plugged into some life re-vamping thing somewhere on the ship. Actually she almost died herself in a tragic gun "accident" some time ago. So, she is really Cozen's pet, but you know I haven't seen much out of her lately either. Probably just hiding out because she's jealous of the llama.

SERYN



Seryn stares around for a few minutes, and makes a comment about the sea otters being cute.
SR fills her in on the finer points of Otter species classifications, and she smiles sweetly at him.
In a tone that could cut glass she replies. "Well, this being the coast, I just assumed they were sea otters, but what ever you say darling"

Then she relents. And with a light swipe to the back of his head, laughs and runs towards the waters edge.

Half way there she slows, then changes direction and begins climbing over the tumbled rocks forming a natural out cropping, jutting into the sea. Avoiding the slippier seaweed covered stones she climb, as garcefull as she can, to the very tip and sits, staring first back towards the shore to watch the otters scurry about, then out towards the sea, watching the waves and the fog bank receeding.

After a short while, she feels SR approach and settle down next to her. Resting a head on his shoulder, she shrugs happily and smiles.

"Its really very very pretty.

Thank you."

CONTESTANT 1: ERVIN THE YETI

Ervin the Yeti, now with soggy, multicolored fur from the pool, walks back up on the stage for his talent demonstration. He seems to have lost his top-hat, but not his ever-present grin.

"Ervin do dance for you. Dance that Weird One taught us in caves of Black Diamond!"

Ervin starts to dance, flinging drops of water from his fur. In the audience, the other yeti present get up and begin to dance too.

"It was a risk, but anyone can go to Cancun, Hawaii or the Carribean, and they usually do, so I brought you here where we can have that most precious quality, quiet alone time." Says SR as he gently places his arm on her shoulders. With his other hand he offers her a bunch surf polish rocks from the beach, about the size of childrens marbles. Seryn looks at him with a expression that could be translated as: "you must be joking."
"Jade, tourmaline, onyx, jasper, opal." he explains. "You won't find those on the beach in Miami." Her eyes open wide and she takes the stones with a smile. Then the smile goes away for a moment.
"Have you brought other girls here?" She asks with a look that says she wants the whole truth.
"I don't bring anyone here."

JAKE7


OOC: FYI: I moved the first weekend of June and I'm just now back to being able to get online on a more normal basis

**jake7 takes the stage after Ervin does his dance (which was surprisingly graceful for such a large creature). She puts a CD into the Karaoke machine, chooses the track, then steps up to the mike as the strains of Def Leppard's "Pour Some Sugar on Me" begin to play. She sings the song with gusto, as it's one of her favorites, and gets the audience reacting along with the melody.

Once the song is complete, she exits the stage, breathless.**
