OK, here is where we can sorta set up the 1 to 3 thread long "one-shot" of the 2 week vacation on New Hokkaido.

Now let me see ... OK here are the arcs that I can remember.

1) Rowan's Pool tournament and the billard "Sting" planned by Thorne.

2) Rowan & Damon find common ground through the discovery of knowing a certain 'influential' individual. For those who are a bit slow today -- the name begins with an 'X'.

3) Jayne takes Merz shopping! She wears a WHAT!

4) Thorne and Inara 'connect' {is that right?} and both leave Serenity and even New Hokkaido. {Run off or tell everybody?}

5) Book meets an interesting Storyteller who is also a mechanic. Book thinks he recognizes the Storyteller from the 'old days'. {Yes, it is NicoAllez)

6) Wash gets to watch Zoe ... well ... wash {hee hee - bathe}, at the GreenTree Spa and other water sports are sure to follow.

7) Jonas Hexx {post-job} Runs into the crew.

8) Mal rethinks his descisions.

I know I fergot stuff, so add to the list!

I would suggest that as much of these scenes should be work on as blended posts - I know Channain and Squee have a bit {quite a bit?} sussed out for their "drunk scene" and I do believe they had planned to post it mostly 'blended'.

Other Ideas, thoughts, caveats?

I think that about covers it on our end, Capn... we haven't gotten much editing done for our scene yet but I figure we have a while to work on it. Don't know how long it will end up either- hope no one minds, we've been planning this scene since February and it turned out longer than we expected. Can't wait to read what everyone else has planned!

Yay, watersports!

Nope, not dead, just feeling buried alive under my work. I'll be catching up here soon (I know, I keep saying that...), and I'll definitely be caught up in time for the vacation!! (I'd hate to have Decoy playing with himself... er, alone, that is...

What Squee said *waving to Squee*

It did end up a lot longer than we expected - note to everyone else, don't let Damon drink. I'm serious. The boy gets a serious case of the talkers

I still have to review the edits she made and tweak it my own self (we're talking about the drunk scene). And if I do say so myself, it's a nice piece of writing. Long, but nice.

Since I'm in school mode, I'll put together my own pre-writing of plans for Rowan shortly.

Yes it is, as a matter of fact. I picked it up from "Three Little Words" starring Fred Estaire and Red Skelton. Fred was the one drinking and Red was the one who said he had "the talkers." Sometimes booze just makes language very... fluid.

Hi Haslinger - I can't speak to what Dragonflydirector has in mind precisely, but we're talking about "Adventures in Gunrunning", the obscenely long RP that's been running on the site since, well, what, November? December? of last year.

Rowan and St. Jayne -

I will be starting the beginnings of our blended ideas in the near future, and will keep in touch via email or however else you wish it done.

All of the vacation arcs will probably end up a bit long - a good chance to point up characterization for the complexities that the regular RPG might get a touch bogged down by.

It's a vacation - have fun, let your hair down and your imagination soar.

Squee - no worries mate. I have not been moving it ahead just because a bit afraid to put words in your and SJ's mouth. If you guys want me to push on a touch, just say the word.

As Channain stated, the GunRunners are primarly the Role playing.

However, I am planning a spin-off of 'Firefly' called 'Dragonfly' an hope to shoot a least a trailer by next year.

Not quite a pro film, but definitely spending more money and utilizing professional talent that a fan-film usually does not do.

As to myself, I am a semi-pro that does costumes and props and even a few commercial venuse for UPN and Star Trek. I have a fairly good background and have many contacts within the film industry.

Just gotta raise more than the 70 grand that I already have stowed away for the 'Dragonfly Project'.

If your interested, check out this thread for a little background info:

River isn't on there. So, any plans, or should I do as I will?

Teela
Whatcha want ta do for the Vacation? I had no plans, but a germ of an idea presents itself.

River wanders off alone and vists the RenAct Faire and meets Boomer?

Maybe she bumps into Thilda (from Dragonfly) and gets into some trouble together.

Let yer imagination go WILD!

BTW - IS the title "Serenity Vacation" cool with everyone? I happen to like the 'joke' by using that particualr title - for those who missed the joke, all I will say is this : Chevy Chase!

OK, we have a new {offical, lol} ARC for River and Jonas Hexx during "Serenity Vacation".

I think I'll give the River/Hexx arc a title: "Without a Paddle" ... with apologies to the movie of the same title.

Heh, if ya wish, go ahead and give the arcs you are working on - a appro. title

SJ - What do you think about naming our vacation ARC "... best served cold?"

Channain, here's an idea "My Bodyguard"
