Life Onboard Serenity: Re-Lighting The Firefly by bigwolf18

Wow... That would totally rock! I've only been part of it for a few months when John revived it last fall, but I still had a grand time. I'd love to be a part of it again if it ever comes back.

Count me in!

PS: For some reason I can't receive PM's, so if you ever want to contact me you'll have to post a reply on this thread.

PPS: Do you know how to find links to the old LOS threads? I'd love to read them for nostalgia's sake

Actually, I don't remember you either. Like I said I was only around for a couple of months when Johnthetheaterfreak restarted it in fall 2007.

Nevertheless, I'd like to give it another shot.

Oh and I got a link to an earlier thread by Googling "Fireflyfans Life Onboard Serenity".

Here ---> http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=2&t=30617&m=542320#542320

It was my first RP, so I made all the noobs mistake one can possibly make. My character was all over the place and my writing was clunky and confusing, but I like to think that I've somewhat improved since then

I guess there's only one way to find out!

If we keep this thread alive for a while maybe people will start noticing. New blood is always a plus. And you could PM some of the old crew (yes, you because like I said earlier PM's do not work for me), maybe some of them would be willing to give it another shot.

I have yet to decide whether or not to bring back the character I had last fall. He was fun to play around with, but in retrospect he probably wasn't suited to this type of story telling. He's quite the piece of work, which makes it hard for other RP-ers to anticipate his reactions. Oh well, I guess I'll tell you when I make up my mind!

So, when are we starting this?

Hey, since you're the one who started it and all, would you mind doing the first post just so we can have something to work with? Like... where's the ship, where is it going, etc? That would be very shiny of you ^_^

We already did the "going to Persphone to get a job and some passengers" thing last time, so it'd be cool to start with something different. But if you're not feeling inspired that's fine... just post something

Also, I thought maybe we could keep this thread alive and use it for OCC stuff, like if we ever want to share ideas or something.

Yeah, I'm excited about this

Oh goodness!

I'm sorry i hadn't noticed this sooner! I would love to bring LoS back, especially since I had so much plot planned for my character! I'll keep my eye on this.

By the way. From the sound of Wolf's post it seems like we're disregarding the breif restart-up earlier. Going straight to 7 months later with as of yet unspoken for events occuring in thoses months. I am fine with this, but just want to be sure.

I've just read a couple of the old LOS threads, and it seems they were cluttered up with OOC posts, maybe we could use Mobbex's idea and use this thread?

And if you have any problems understanding Kellen, you can PM me and I'll see what I can do, even though I think it would be cooler to have confused reactions from crew members.

Oh, and I'm sort of going for a cook/cleaner role. You know, that sort of stuff. And, if you don't mind, one of the ideas for Kellen was to "tinker" things, so maybe help out with mech' duties?

More like "skimmed" the threads

SCATHAC

So, I feel something like a heel since I didn't realize this thread was related to the game (I'm a dunce and actually thought this was for another game, strangely with the same name. Geez. Someone kick me. That's what happens when I start cruising the threads before coffee.)

I already jumped into the game, but I can give you some info. My character is part of a family of martial artists. We train performers on Paquin, and also hire ourselves out as body gaurds and gaurds for caravans and settlers and such. I'm on a personal mission to return my master/father's ashes to the family shrine in Sihnon. But I'm also pretty interested in getting away from the family awhile and to have a few adventures. It's something I do now and again. Scathac is petite, caucasian.

(Most of this is just cut and paste from the chat, so just ignore some bit's not making sense)

Acording to the offical blue prints, the passanger dorms have two decks.

Accommodation: 18 Maximum (9 Passenger Dorms)
Crew: 5 (5 Crew Cabins)

But some of the dorms are tiny. I don't know how you could stuff two people in River's. There are two or three others larger than the four tiny ones. Simon had the one suite. Double Deckers! The room above Simons was a suite too. Books was double the size of Rivers, but more Narrow than simons.

Summary: The passanger dorms are double deckers, Simon's being the largest, a suite. Same as the room above. Book's was large, but not quite as large a Simons, same as the room above. River's the smallest, same as the above dorm.

So, what I'm trying to say is, shotgun the Suite above Simon's!

Amen to the OoC, even though I was somewhat guilty of it myself. So here is my version of who is on the ship and what the ships been doing.

On the ship are Mal, Zoe, Jayne, Kaylee, Simon, River, Inara, Pain and myself. From what I gleaned, everyone else has either left or was never on. The crew has been floating along, mostly just catching little jobs when they come not doing any major work. It looks like in the time since Serenity the Browncoats have began to reform and a second War is coming.

Due to character changes and other issues, the brief ressurection did not happen.

John is a childhood friend of Kaylee's whose mother and brother disappeared at an early age. He lived with Kaylee until he found out that his family comes from a long line of empaths...and assasins. After discovering this, he went to find his mother, and found she had been killed. He blocked out his empathy and became a cold-blooded and deadly assasin. Th somethinghappened that caused him to realize his mistakes, he set out to find Kaylee because she was the only family he had left, being as his borther... He joined Serenity and is seeking to become a better person.

That's not up to John. He can't treat you like a crew member until you talk to the captain. I realize that is your intention, but John is wary about letting you on the ship in the first place without the captain's permission.

John, would you mind too terribly if I move Kaylee to the kitchen, so she can meet with Aiko, and take her up to the bridge, and then back to her convo with Simon or wherever you want her to go after that?
