OOC 24 'Adventures in GunRunning' by Channain

I like the uncertainty of our talk Capn. I hope to make Mal involuntarily give up some secrets.

I am REALLY liking what I am seeing so far in the Book/Mal chat.

I am working on the response ... trying to get into a good rendition of what Mal's reaction would be to the the bit about Thorne.

Greetings gunrunners -

Just an aside here. Decoy has spend most of the night and so far all of today at Tampa General Hospital with his father.

A combination of bad behavior on his folks part, and the accidental administration of a medicine he turned out to have an unknown allergy to.

Don't know what the outcome will be, but not to worry overly, his continued existance is not in question, just his comfort level.

He said I should go ahead and let y'all know.

Anyone out there? Everyone alright? It's so quiet, I'm almost worried!

Debs, Decoy: You're in my thoughts and prayers.

Saint Jayne: I had a lovely afternoon -- we should do it again some time. Thanks for the tea!

Update -

They did an examination of Decoy's dad today and determined his pain is definitely not his heart. Which is good.

Tomorrow they are going in, again a simple procedure (I hope) to see if the acid reflux problem he has had is causing issues. Don't know when they will know anything for sure or when he gets to go home. He thinks he is going home tomorrow afternoon.

My bet is he's incorrect :-(

We'll see.

Hey Debs - Let Decoy know I'm praying REALLY hard. His dad sounds like mine - fiesty. But it's scary to hear the doctor say, "We don't know for sure yet, we need to do more tests." Buh-rother.

I've been quiet for good reasons rather than the usual this weekend. I had fun stuff going on - lefse baking Saturday morning, a party Saturday eening - even the Marscon con comm meeting wasn't as bad as I thought, hangover or no

Time to catch up. See you all in a bit!

EDIT: By the way, SJ said it was okay to move Jayne around so I'm going to give that a shot while holding him to his notiion that Rowan is some manner of evil companion.

Hey guys -

Decoy's Dad is home and doing OK, he has some new meds for the acid reflux and hopefully a better appreciation for stayin' off foods he has been taken off of. So he's going to be I hope!

Channain - I got a bounce back from your Hotmail account sending you something today. Tried an alternate account, but it is nothing important, so don't worry. And I think you handled Jayne just right - St J. will be proud.

S'all I can think of for now guys. Have a good day!

That's good to know, actually, since the Xiang login I set up uses my Hotmail account that I haven't used in... well, a really long time, I guess, since they deactivated it. heh. I use the Yahoo! account primarily. Hopefully I can set it up so I can see that there's mail in the Hotmail account.

On Jayne

Someone at MarsCon over the weekend helped remind me of Jayne's "interrogation" in Bushwacked so I'm taking that approach - strong, silent, heavy on the intimindatin' manner.

She's all bouncy and everything!

Meantime, I guess Rowan is going to spend a bit more time rummaging for the steamer and setting it up. I was kind of hoping for some input from Inaraesque or Merz. Everybody's busy, it seems.

CAPN - Rowan is also still under the impression that her TALK with Mal could happen this evening. the more shininess I read between you and Maniac, the more I'm thinking that isn't so?

You? Ruin something? The deuce you say!

Nah - no worries Maniac. It's all good! We all know the RP has a life of its own, and I think Capn would agree with me. I have no plans for Rowan other than the usual - dishes, 9-ball practice, and reading in her bunk until "morning." If someone else has other ideas, hey! That's fun too. The only constant in the 'verse is change.

HEE! Me neither. I did find out over the weekend that I still know how to shoot a pretty good stick, though. Especially when teamed up with the really drunk brother-in-law of the host.

Been a busy day thus far. The Big Cat's away now, though, so I'll respond soon. I will tell you that I like your idea of a before and after style posts.

Just discovered a new decadence - Dark chocolate mint Treasures from Nestles. I figured they warranted a taste test. I'll let you all know how that goes.

How was everyone's Thanksgiving? mine was much more low key than it usually is cuz instead of having at least 6 guests in addition to our own 6 person familiy (10 if you count the dog and our 3 cats, who ate more turkey than I did), we only had my uncle visiting for a week from Holland. but we had a lot of fun and the food was great as always.

Hello all!

I edited my last post to clarify the description of Merz' jewelry. Suddenly it seems to be a tad more important than it used to be ...

To be even clearer - If you have ever seen the logo for Chevron (I think) Gas stations, that triangle thing done in shades of orange ~ the piece is lead crystal in that shape and three dimensional.

I know I said I was ready to write, but things have been a bit odd of late. I was going to go in and update things last night, but FFF.net wasn't playing well with others - or my computer was feeling stand-offish. I'm not entirely clear. At any rate, I'll get myself back into the swing here soon. Squee and I have had conversations about how we're going to progress, so it's all good.

Also, I wanted to ask the troupe if it would be okay if I used some of the early RP posts in a fan fic. Originally, Rowan was created to be a passenger in a fan fic that would tie together the two parts of my Zirondelle series. I would still like to use her for that, and some of the scenes like the Hera Cary, her approach to Serenity and such. With the exception of some mention of Rowan's sister and the cruise ship she's on, that's where the fan fic and the RP would separate. If anyone has a problem, let me know and I'll work on an alternate storyline.

Keeping in mind that the only character I'll be carrying away with me is Rowan, of course. Xiang won't even get featured. It's not that manner of fan fic.

Unfortunately, Maniac is right. As much as I hate doing so, I have to leave the RP

no, I'm not trying to scare anyone into posting... some RL stuff has come up and I have to take my leave.

I don't know what's going to happen with Damon yet, I'll leave that up to Chan, Capn and Debs, and anyone else who has an idea.

my appologies everyone, i know some of us had big plans- hopefully you can carry those on without me. I'll be in touch with those who need to talk to me about Damon and I'll pop in here once in a while to tell you all what a shiny job you are doing with the RP.
