Oh, I know that look... Y'know, it's not like I want to punch a whole through the face of every new fella' I come upon. It's just what I do, so I buckle down, 'put my mean face on, and I do it.

But you, you don't have it in you. The meanness, I mean. Y' don't wanna be mean. Yet for some reason you feel like you have to. How come?

*Refuses to meet Mobbex's eyes*

Just don't like people asking about what's past an gone is all. Don't make a habit of telling anybody about myself... no-ones business....

*grabs a protien bar, then decides she still isn't hungry despite what her own stomach is telling her. Sits at the table and drinks her coffee.*

*Still rubbing my head*
I think she bashed me in the head on purpose.

Wash: She bumped her head too.

Yeah but after my dealings with her the last few days I'm fair certain her heads harder than mine.

Don't worry 'bout it. Wash said something...You think Abbey and I...well you think there's something going on between us?

*Mobbex: HA, You and Abbey? That's funny. *slapping me hard on the back* Fancy gal like that taking a liking to you.*

Exactly.

*Mobbex lugging his weight bag onto his shoulder: Wash musta stole a bottle too. Thinking you would have a shot at Abbey. Thats Hi-larious. What would she want with the likes of you.*

Hey I am standing here.

*Mobbex: What? You said it yourself.*

Yeah, but not with your enthusiasm. You owe me 200 credits for that bottle. And your on Kitchen clean up till you pay me back.

*Mobbex: Thought you just said don't worry about it?*

Well....Well worry. And don't go stealing anymore of the crews

Pots on. Be a while till it brews. Abbey says your not eating. Not gonna press you as to why so long as you start eating.
*I get a pan out and fire up the cook top.*

Oram: I'd rather not. I'm not really hungery.

I guess i'm not wording things right. Your going to eat.

*I open a can of processed imitation eggs and pour it into the pan*

*to herself* Could be in bed, trying to sleep…. Counting inventory…. No, screw that… or go for another of Abbey's magnum wine… damn fine taste … could actually go with the eggs, even if its to try and swallow them down.

Little bitty calf right up on the table. And ol Captain Santos is slapping this big heifer with a frying pan. But...But she aint moving. Oh God, I ain't thought about that in years.

*Oram: How did you get them out?*

Oh after about an hour and several rather stinky deposits around the dinner table, they headed back to the cargo bay.
*wiping the tears from my eyes* Well Doc thank you for the company. I best get back up on the bridge before Wash wakes up and sees me slacking off.

*After finishing up with cleaning the dishes and mugs, Oram tidies the area to make it ready for the next set of people who come to eat. Glancing around to make sure everything is neat, she changes the flowers water before heading to clean up the room and head for the showers. Entering her room, she sees how messy its become, but with a few moments it's back to a neater state. Oram grabs the bourbon from the side table and puts it back into the duffle bag, not even glancing at the photo, though her hand does touch it unconsciously*

*Comes by Oram's room and leans in.*

abbey: I think the Captain wants me to stop by for a final check after the whole allergy thing. Do you have time to check me out now?

Oram: Sure.

*Oram and abbey walk to the infirmary, where abbey hops up on bed. Oram checks out abbey's neck for swelling then gets out stethoscope.*

Oram: Deep breath. *abbey sucks in air - Oram hears wheeze* Again. *abbey sucks in air - Oram hears wheeze again* Abbey, your lungs still sound pretty bad. Wheezing all over the place.

abbey *whining*: How long is this going to last?

Oram: That's the thing about Panaflex. People who are allergic have lasting effects. Mostly in the lungs. Could be a week or more before the asthma-like symptoms go away.

abbey: A week? Or more?

Oram: How long did it take the last time?

abbey: It took a while, but I thought it was because of the cold I got right after.

Oram: Probably affected it some, but the drug does enough on its own.

abbey: It's going to be a while then? *Oram nods*

Oram: How's the inhaler working?

abbey: Seems OK.

Oram: How often are you using it?

abbey: Couple a times a day. Usually after going up stairs and the like. Or yelling at the Captain. *Oram smiles at that comment*

Oram: Fighting... With the Captain...

abbey: What? The man is insufferable.

Oram: Do you know what it looks like to me? *Oram gives a big grin and raises eyebrows.*

abbey: What? You think that... With him...?

Oram: Looks like.

abbey: Well put that out of your mind, mei mei. He's just not... I don't... Oh! Never mind!

*Abbey hops off table, leaves infirmary and starts up the stairs. Oram follows her to the door*

Oram *yelling*: And keep that inhaler with you! Without it, you'll have problems! Especially with all the yelling!

abbey *yelling back*: Whatever! *abbey stops and looks over railing at Oram* And Doc?

Oram *sweetly*: Yes?

abbey: You've got a smutty mind!

**On the Bridge with Wash landing on Greenleaf.**

** Through re-entry and coming in to land at the port**

**Alarms wail and the ship shakes violently and starts to drift of course**

*Wash: Whoa, I just lost hydraulics to the starboard engine. Son of a Bitch. Can't keep us level.*

Can’t you compensate? *She gives me a go to hell look*

Ok Ok you’re doing that. Can you keep us from smashing into the ground?

*Wash: That I might be able to do. *She checks her screens and stands up, still fighting the controls, to glance out the window* There's a field. I think I can set us down there.

Do it

** The Book sets down not so gently, in the middle of nowhere on Greenleaf**

Good Job Wash. Lets go check out the damage.

*Wash starts to follow me out, then turns quickly to stand up all her dinos before leaving the bridge*

* Get to the cargo bay and Spots is coming back in from outside*

How bad?

*Spots: Hard to say yet. We're pouring hydraulic. Got to pull some panels to see where.*

* Later, Wash Spots and I all working under the starboard wing.*

*Spots: I need the big spanner.*
*I hand him one*
*Spots: No the big one. Might still be inside.*

I'll get it.

*I round the ship and see Brit piling wood up*

So were gathering sticks today?

*She nods: They were lonely all spread out.*

They were...forget it. Be careful, don’t need you getting snake bit or worse.

*I return with the "Big Spanner" and not long after the repair is complete.*

*As were tearing down the scaffold we hear a loud Whoosh sound. We all recognize it. Fire.
We head towards the sound only to see Brit's pile of wood burning. She holds up 3 pointed sticks with the charred gooey blobs on them.*

*Brit: Fluff Ball?

Apologies are irrelevant here. I'm not very much exasperated by simple mood changes.

*hands Oram a stick with a fluff ball on it*
These are delicious.

*Spot assures me were good to go when I'm ready. I stand at the edge of the cargo bay arms folded over my chest. I see Abbey and Mobbex slip out of site.*

Maybe that will put an end to all this relationship nonsense.

*I consider packing everyone back on the ship and heading to the port. Then the sound of laughter reaches my ears from the fire. The rest of the crew is gathered there. Spots and Oram are fighting for the best spot in the fire for their fluff ball. Even Invictus has lifted his self imposed exile and is stoking the flames. Brit's is managing to making Sky smile. This might be just what we needed.*

*Brit looks me straight in the eye and nods as soon as I think that.

Huh

* Now it's time to make peace with Sky. I approach slowly. She's freaky fast and more than once has reminded me, just how fast, with a slap to my head.*

*Sky: I ain't going hit you. Not yet anyway.

Good, I'd hate a replay of Doleson. Wouldn't do much for moral, watching us try to tear each others heads off.

*Sky: No no fighting, you seem to do enough of that with everyone else on this boat. Just don't forget, we go back further than these folks. *

I ain't forgetting. Hell I brought you here, to get you out from under Mallory's thumb.

Sky: I wasn't under his thumb. He supplied good jobs.

Only thing he was suppling you was a ticket to a box in a Fed prison, or maybe worse. Listen you are one of the best thief's I've ever seen, but the risk he had you taking. It was dangerous, he's dangerous.

*Sky: So you drag me out here. I've been in more tight spots since signing up here than I ever was with him.*

*Ouch* I just wanted a different life. Thought you might as well.

*Sky: This ain't that different Colt, and I don't think it ever will be. It's not the life Colt, its you. Look at these skittle brains you surround yourself with. I always thought you had a soft spot in your heart for certain types. Now I'm thinking the soft spot is between your ears. *

You might be right. But it was that same soft spot that I have for you. It's why I want you here. I can do this alone, you know that. Theres been years that we don't so much as wave each other. But I'd rather not. So what do you say?
*I offer up a completley burned fluff ball*

*Sky: Any chance you'll be paying me something more that burnt food in the future?*

I'll see what I can do. Wouldn't be a call for all this if you hadn't triggered that alarm.

*I throw my arm around her shoulder and we go sit by the fire *

Well, should I get my banjo or leave it up to you to entertain us?

*Brit hops up at the play of Oram's banjo. She skips around and twirls in circles, her bright yellow dress flowing along with her. She starts clapping and pulls Sky and the Captain from their seats and drags them to dance around with her*

Captain, your tension is a mite fierce! Too much can cause heavy neck and back pain. You'll go through a series of prodrome and then suffer the auras and sensory disturbances which can soon enough result in Hemicrania Continua!

*Just continues to dance despite her rambling. Starts to clap her hands and watches as Sky stands there. She takes Sky's hand and spins her around in a circle*

Sky: Captain, I told you, you picked up a nut.

*Brit just giggles and continues to dance around the fire*

Colt: *to sky* Well, I did pick you.

Sky: *shoots a look at Colt* Whatever you say. All I know is you triggered that alarm on Bellerophon.

*Brit stops directly on the last note that Oram plays and bows. Smiles at Oram.*

I like your banjo.
