I agree, unless a misunderstanding could possibly arise.

The following has nothing to do with M.Geezer and Mme. Geezer. Only a connection of coincidence concerning ... being discreet.

Thus, I submit the following to you all, in the hope of correcting a possible misunderstanding.

To all who here on FFFn who 'know' me, the poem to Merz may seem ... well - wrong.

I feel you must know this: Merz is my ex-wife from 18 or so years ago. LOOONG torrid story - would make a great tragic romance novel - really!

Why do I feel you have the right to know?
I feel that most of you folks are becoming friends and not just Net-acquaintances and deserve a bit of background.

Now to continue the 'reveal'...

You all have heard that I am 'in' a 10 year+ relationship with Cathy, my signifiant other.
{Interesting side note: Cathy is the template for Veila over on DragonFly}

Cathy knows everything (yes, EVERYTHING!!!) about Merz and visa-versa. Matter of fact they are friends.

So much in fact, they talk on the phone about me behind my back,

LOL!

Now, I apologize if I have offended anyone's sense of ... well - whatever 'sense of' I might have offended. I sometimes forget what others will perceive in my writing.

With that in mind - Please remember this: what works for some people/groups may not work for other folks/groups. Infinite diversity in infinite combinations, so to speak.

Thanks for reading!! And I hope you may understand a little more about my 'weirdness' now.

Directorial Staff Announcement

Alright, ve haff zome news for zose zat are sufferink from vithdrawal...

*disengage accent mode*

Channain and I are experiencing some challenges directing the RP due to outside commitments; because of this, neither of us is really able to commit fully as director of the RP. After much discussion, we have asked Geezer to take over as the director of the RP, since he has "the availability, the enthusiasm, and a better grip on the story destination" (as Channain so aptly noted

).

Channain and I will continue in our RP roles, and will assist Geezer as necessary in keeping things "tidy" (Archives, Alpha posts, and the like); he has our full support in leading the RP.

Thanks, Geezer, for taking on this job!

Keep the Shiny side up

DICTATORIAL...err...DIRECTORIAL CHANGE

Okay.

First, I’d like to thank Frau D. and Channain for their vote of confidence. I hope I won’t cause them to rue the day… They will be keeping me in line, always ready to jump in and wrest the wheel from my hands if I seem to be steering us over a cliff.

Based on the rumbles from the cast, I guess the next order of business is to get the AinGR RP back in motion. What I’d like to do is mention a cast change, set a couple of general guidelines, and sketch out a story-line that moves the episode towards a resolution, but leaves everyone room to play. We can discuss the further adventures of the Gunrunners in a little while.

Cast change. RavenWhyteWing will be moving from guest star to regular cast member as he takes over the role of Wash (applause). His Slight character will no doubt have a fitting exit from this episode, and may return in later stories.

Guidelines. At least until the end of AinGR, please don’t anyone drop a major plot-changing surprise package on us, e.g. “Suddenly a trans-dimensional portal opened before Serenity, hurling the ship and its luckless crew back in time to the XVIIth Century.”. Minor curveballs (“Suddenly Rowan and Kaylee develop a strong mutual attraction.”) are O.K.
Overall, everyone seems to work together very well, so that’s about it for guidelines.

Story-line. Rather than telling folks “you do this, you do that”, the story-line will hopefully just give general direction and let folks improvise on what they’d like to do to move the tale along. Folks can work on their character arcs as long as they avoid the “surprise package” noted above. Most of my ‘directing’ will be more like, “Uh, let’s move to the next plot point, guys.”

So here’s the tentative, proposed, first draft, storyline…full of hints, foreshadowing, and possible bits of action for folks to step up to.

· We are currently sitting in the boonies, following an unsuccessful Niska hunt. I believe that Channain has already asked to handle the Niska departure. Her tale and various crew comments should close out Act 9.
· Off to Serenity Valley to pick up the guns (finally). Several folks have been here before, and may want to reminisce.
· While we’re here loading the cargo, wouldn’t it be nice if some enterprising folk could install that laser cannon stolen earlier?
· Just about loaded up, and several Fed fighters appear on scan. Up ship and away. Anyone want off before we go? Maybe with ground-to-air missile(s)? Does anybody know how to use that laser cannon thingie, anyway?
· Daring escape from atmo to space, possibly aided by cover fire from ground, and certainly laser cannon-wielding hero. Also chances for masterful piloting, intuitive engineering solutions, tactical brilliance, etc.
· Margarita time! Celebration of escape. Big dinner? End of Act?
· Couple of days transit to New Hokkaido. This might be a good time to slow the action down for some interpersonal relationships, e.g. the Mal/Thorne/Inara axis, Scared Kaylee/Nutso Simon, Rowan/? , Damon/? , ?/?. Talk among yourselves and set up scenarios if you’d like. Also, let’s see if we can get poor Damon ambulatory.
· Ahoy! New Hokkaido on the Port beam. Thorne contacts his contacts and sets up delivery. Thorne has a secret behind this, which will appear.
· Rats! Handoff of goods interrupted by gun-toting goons. Is it Niska, or Early, or Reavers, or flying monkeys? Time will tell.
· Climactic battle ensues. Patience please, there’s plenty of heroics to go around.
· Good guys win! What a surprise. Anybody want off in New Hokkaido?
· Wrap up and Coda. What did it all mean? How did we change and grow? How much tequila is left? The End.

If anyone has questions or suggestions at any point, please go ahead and ask in the OOC, since I can’t get email or AIM at work.

Now, please assemble in the hold. Once we’re all together, I believe Rowan has the first line.

Ooh! Ooh! Can I volunteer Damon for the laser cannon? That's right up his alley and I was hoping to find him a job to start getting him settled in with the crew.
Maybe he could have a chat with Mal sometime and get that sorted out? The idea is that Damon doesn't expect to be staying long, but he ends up deciding that Serenity isn't so bad a place to live

I'd like to echo Squee's "ooh! ooh!"

Rowan has some systems expertise that would lend itself well to the guns project. Otherwise, I found myself wondering the other day what the other console on the bridge is for. I thought, what if it's an operations console, where a second person can keep tabs on the rest of Serenity so the pilot can focus on his piloting? I figure with just Wash up there, he and Kaylee figured ways to patch the systems from the second console over to Wash's. But with Rowan on board, they could at least have someone to keep tabs on things, give Wash and/or Mal a chance to catch some shut-eye or move on to captainy things.

Hey SSon - thanks and I'm happy you approve. You can ask Astriana - I was nervous about assuming Jayne voce without discussing it with you. Bugs me a lot, actually. But the encounter I wrote won't be the last, so if you don't mind me utilizing Jayne, I may "make use" of him later

I'll be e-mailing, let you know what I have in mind. I don't recall what it was we discussed before.

Hope some manner of sanity finds its way to you soon so you can come back and play with the rest of the kids.

According to what I've been working from, he didn't. He climbed down and walked out. I think Capn intended for him to, but lost it somewhere in his computer.

Quote:
Posted in RP by CapnRahn
Scene opens as ... NISKA drops the last few feet to the ground from the access handholds built into the exterior starboard side of the cargo bay. His aged frame barely soaking up the impact.

He listens for a moment and moves off at an angle from Serenity into a small canyon.

In minutes, NISKA navigates a few blind curves in a slow walk as he assesses his options.

Lost in thought, NISKA is startled when he is suddenly aware of someone behind him. Cursing himself for a fool, he begins to turn. Midway through the turn, a hard tap on his right scapula nearly makes him grunt in pain.

Standing behind him is ROWAN, holding a broomstick with the brush end removed. She wields it like a bo staff, one end supported in her right armpit and the other tip returning in an arc from her forceful tap on NISKAs shoulder. She stops the improvised staff with the barest waver.

Time seems to stand still as NISKA and ROWAN scrutinize each other...

Capn mentioned "working out" the mule, but since he's also been "undertowed" with house issues, I don't know if he'll get that piece worked out.

Okay. I noticed that initially Capn had said the mule would be missing; then I noticed that in your post, Niska walked away. At this point, I think it'd probably be easier all around to assume that Niska walked away and the mule's right where it's supposed to be - that way we don't have to make another side-trip to recover it later. Thoughts?

Hey Capn -

Remember when you asked me what color Rowan's eyes are and I said black? You never asked me why.

Rowan's in hiding, has been since the war. She's also half Irish, so I'm taking a little creative license with genetics. Rather than black eyes, they're actually jade green. But an Asian woman with green eyes would be pretty easy to pick out of a crowd, so she wears contacts to cover the color.

Thanks to Niska trying to cave her head in, her right eye is swollen shut. In the midst of treating her, Simon's bound to notice the contacts, and they'll have to get the right one out.

Sound interesting?

Why don't you 'shadow' Slight?

Does River trust him? Would she keep an eye on him either way?

She has to be getting scrambled information from all around from all of the fuss going on. Not to mention her stance on Slight, and Simon's little 'secret' interfearing with River's observation and other 'powers'.

Good stuff comes from that.

I am not trying to pick on Slight, but it seems weird that everyone would just accept an unknown like a Blue Sun Ex-Op. Example - In "Trash", Saffron was not quite fully accepted as a partner by everyone. However she WAS watched - and she was a KNOWN variable.

I wouldn't say he's bein' accepted exactly... I had Zoe start ordering him around to make sure he stayed where she and Jayne could keep an eye on him, and to keep him from bothering Simon and River. (The characters don't know it yet, but Slight will be leaving when we hit Serenity Valley.)

My move for Kaylee may seem out of character, but she's very confused about Simon. This leads her to take it out on everyone EXCEPT the object of her confusion.

Hope no one minds that I took a small liberty here (especially Joss & Jewel).

Woo-hoo!

Out of contact for a few days, and come back to find the RP back up and running! Best news!

I'll now spend the day at work sneaking quick looks at the main RP thread while no-one's looking...

Great plot line, Geezer - looking forward to seeing it play!

No reason everybody has to get along all the time. And Kaylee getting jealous of someone else working on Serenity seems pretty much in character. Of course, installing the cannon and shooting it are two different things.

Heh. Don't I know it. I imagine Kaylee'll come around...she always does.
