RESE

You hold right here! FollowMal will be along shortly to give you a shiny Browncoat (virtual model). So's you'll feel more like family!

Sit a spell, someone will be along shortly to offer food and drink. I ate all of the strawberries from yesterday, but they were getting a bit soggy so I don't feel too bad about it.

FloralBunny has some real good contacts; I'll give her a holler to see what she's got in her storeroom.

I'll be back . . . .

Heeeeeere are fresh strawberries for one and all!
And a case of Mudder's Milk.
And the replacements for all the used-up food and cooled-off hot cheese.
What a job!
Hehe. I love it.

As for virtual browncoats, we had new 'coats signing up all over the board -- very hard to track 'em all down -- and then FollowMal got a little too busy with something else. I'm sure she appreciates your patience. We'll keep the heat turned up so nobody gets cold while waiting.....

(Hey, rese, shiny to see you here!)

You don't? But... but... You're a Browncoat, right? Then you MUST have a gen-yew-wine Browncoat of your very own, and since the real ones cost over a thousand Alliance credits, we have to give you virtual ones, and FollowMal is the one you have to see to be issued one of your very own. She's only on the site 20 hours of every 24 so a few new Browncoats occasionally slip by her, but she'll be by here soon.

... and if you are still confused, it's just our little way of welcoming you to the site.

Mmmm, do I smell strawberries and fresh food? Thought the smells coming from the galley were too good to be just the usual protein. And welcome to all the new folks - glad you found us all here.

As has been said, this is just our way of saying hello and welcoming you all aboard our 'virtual' ship, with 'virtual' food and 'virtual' 'coats. But the people here are shiny and real, and we're glad to have you join us.

- Shiny. Let's be bad guys.

See this browncoat?

*waves browncoat*

No? That's because it's virtual.

Very simple huh?

Problem is that for those who don't know that it sounds like something much more interesting.

I'm not quite sure what a "virtual" Browncoat is but could I have one too, pretty please?

And a strawberry or two? I love those things....

Well, since FollowMal can't send you a real 'coat she and some of the others have come up with a very shiny alternative, also known as a "virtual Browncoat" where she comes into the posts of the new recruits to this site and to the Firefly/Serenity 'verse, and hands people browncoats made out of a data stream and love!

Also, any new recruits on this thread help yourselves to some coffee, tea or Mudder's Milk virtually made by me, JOSSIS(Most Definitely)AGOD.

* Walks into thread a la Mal walking into the cargo hold* ( I'm a lady though so I do that very gracefully, lol.)

Howdy EryK,

Ok, look at me closely, you may have to squint your eyes a bit. Now think about Mal and how he dresses. See this here shiny 'coat that Mal wears.... well, it's the right of all new folks to have a browncoat just like Mal's, only not like Mal's 'zactly, cuz this room ain't real and neither is the 'coat. So you have to pretend.
And know that what I'm handin' to you is your very own shiny wonderful browncoat just exactly like Mal's.

*hands EryK a new browncoat from the storeroom*

Now I wear mine with pride, and I hope you do too.

It's a wonderful place here, what with pretend warm browncoats and luscious strawberries... mmmmmm. And you'll find the folks nice here too.
This is my home and welcome to it. Hope you will stay with us a spell and talk a bit and enjoy yourself.

Remember to share the 'verse with everyone you care about and some you don't. I want to see Mal up on that big screen again, and I'll bet you would be happy to as well.

"You hold. Hold 'til I get back." Mal

Ahhh, virtual strawberries and cream, the shiniest thing next to Serenity in the 'verse.

*Whips a browncoat off of her arm and shakes it out for Morwen112 and holds it out to be shrugged on*

Here you are, your very own browncoat. Hope it fits.

Welcome to the 'verse and we're very glad to have you. Wherever new folks are there be strawberries, so I like to hang out in those threads. Hope I see you there!

IANW,

Do you want a browncoat? I'd sure be happy to give you one.

You come by the storeroom any time you want and I'll be happy to fit you out with one.

And MeanGoldFish, you've got to be kidding me. You don't know what we're talking about?

*grabs another handful of strawberries and a cup of coffee that JossisaGod brewed up*

and it's mighty fine!

Welcome ERYK! I haven't gotten a browncoat either, but I left a lot of feedback before I actually made a bio or a blog, so I think i just slipped through. Enjoy yourself! Check out the fanfic and fanart, it's shiny!

Thanks very much! *puts on new Browncoat with glee* Yah! I'm so happy! Can I help with any storeroom chores? I'm really excited to finally have an outlet for my newfound Serenity/Firefly passion! My parents got slightly frustrated after the second or third day of me explaining exactly why I need both the Series and the Movie at once though I'm conjurin' I'll settle for the Series now and get the BDM June 23rd.

I've come to see that browncoats are more than mere fans, and that's something there, something worth keeping and paying attention to.
