*opens one eye and looks around*

*when he sees he is alone, opens the other eye*

*smiles at the adventures of the past few days, carefully stands up, and goes over to the mirror*

*smile fades when he notices a perfectly drawn (with a surgical marker) handlebar moustache adorning his upper lip*

Huh...now how did that get there?

*hears a giggle followed by the sound of barefeet running away down the hall*

Figures. Doc's sister couldn't resist my overwhelming masculinity...

*girlish laughter erupts from down the hall*

*yells*

WELL THAT'S WHAT I'M GOING TO TELL EVERYBODY, RIVER!

*goes to wipe off the 'facial hair', stops, shrugs shoulders, lights a cigar, and heads for the galley...'moustache' still in full effect*

We will hold...we hold till Mal gets back.

*Wakes up from a horrible night sleep*

*Sits up in bed.....waits.......ship seems to be runnin' smooth*

*Wonder if the tech twins are done fussin' with the ship*

I need a shower.....

*Proceeds to common showers*

*Runs the shower nice and hot*

*Stretches her hands under the shower head, bows her head and lets the water run on the back of her neck*

*Takes deap breath, stays in that position for a few minutes and washes*

*She walks up to the galley and can smell the fresh pot of coffee*

Hmmmmm, coffee, I needs my coffee this mornin'

*Pours a cup of coffee and thinks, TOMATOES!*

*She looks in the fridge, ah, that Jaynesbunkwoman is some kinda friend, not to mention the others who didn't touch them*

*She grabs the plate and sees if there is any bread and cheese left too......*

Ah

*She takes the tomatoes and places them on a slice of bread, topping it with a slice of cheese and proceeds to eat them down*

*A note is posted on the bulletin board*

To: Dr. Pain/Grimjack

The remains of your brandy is in the left-hand cabinet, third shelf down. Thanks for the nightcap.
After all the ooh-rah yesterday, I've decided to sleep in this morning. Made up another batch of bread dough (sourdough) and left it to rise; be nice if someone baked it up in time for lunch.

I'm off to examine the insides of my eyelids for flaws and imperfections.

Vaya Con Huevos,

R.J.

P.S. Just a nudge; we pull into port tomorrow; somebody really should get to working on those receipts.

*Puts the mug to her lips and giggles girlishly at Pain's comment to Jack*

*Takes a sip, still smiling*

*puts on his best 'I'm dashing' face*

This...

*points to 'moustache'*

...is what you get when you are a gorram stud muffin. Some women just need to find a way to touch ya.

*hysterical laughter can be heard from somewhere on the ship*

*looks irritated*

THAT'S MY THEORY!

*yells into the hallway*

Anyway, morning to you both. I'll be with the missus in the Cargo Bay.

*strokes pretend moustache, puts cigar back in mouth, and heads off for the Bay...whistling*

(Location: Cargo Bay)

*heralded by a puff of cigar smoke, walks into the Bay and heads straight for the hover Mule*

Good morning my lovely old Mule.

*inspects the freshly added plas-steel bonding hiding the bullet holes from Whitefall*

*glides fingers along the rough layer of dried bonding*

*looks down lovingly at Mule*

Well these rough patches won't do...not for a pretty Mule like you...no siree. You just let old GrimJack take care of you. We'll freshen you up and have you feeling like yourself in no time.

*moves off to gather his power sander, but turns around before picking it up*

*looks back at Mule*

I knew you wouldn't laugh at my moustache.

*smiles around cigar and begins to prep the power sander*

*moments later...the sounds of metal on metal can be heard intermittently coming from the Cargo Bay...and when the sander stops, a trained ear can hear a whistled tune*

We will hold...we hold till Mal gets back.

*She decides she can't work without music*

*Without disturbing kitty, she puts in "Green Day, American Idiot" on random play*

*The song "Watsername" plays*

*She listens and sings aloud to the end of the song*

Remember, whatever, It seems like forever ago,
Remember, whatever, it seems like forever ago,
The regrets are useless in my mind, she's in my head..
The regrets are useless in my mind, she's in my head...
And in the darkest night...If my memory serves me right I'll never turn back time forgetting you but not the time.....

*She taps her hand on her knee while she thinks of the recepit that needs to be worked on while "Holiday" plays in the background*

*Everytime they say "Hay" she pops up a hand to accentuate the word*

"Don't forget to call him "Sir." He likes that."

*finishes sanding down the bonding patches*

*removes safety glasses and rubs his hand across the newly smooth frame of the hover Mule*

*kneels down beside Mule keeping his wounded leg out to the side and whispers to the vehicle*

Told'ya I'd fix you sweetheart. We got your shapely body back, and soon as I can mix it up, it'll be time to give you a new 'dress'.

*stands up and puffs on cigar*

You're a fine looking old Mule...couldn't ask for one better.

*grabs his cane and heads off toward his quarters*

*turns back at the last minute and addresses the Mule...*

Now don't you go nowhere sweetie.

*laughs at his own joke, strokes his 'moustache', and limps off*

Yes, so I guess Pain is right.

But there is one thing to be said "It was fun and I hope I can do this again sometime."

If you feel kinda boared, come to the chat area. Pain and Followmal did make it tonight. Although, both couldn't stay very long, they came just the same. I know FollowMal will be back. It is nice to get to know people.

If you think the chat was busy at night, stop by in the am, like around mornin' time to lunch time there a many a folk the will great you well and the room moves a little slower.

At Lunch time, eastern time zone, you can usually find a lot of people who are worth meeting also.

Just Firefly freindly people!!

Have a day!......or night, whatever the case may be.

Whew. Talk about sleeping the clock around. Looks like everbody's on night cycle but me.

Well, gotta charge the batteries sometime, I guess.

Wonder what happened today?

Wonder if anybody forged those gorram receipts--

*Spots envelope on bulletin board, marked with his initials in Fly's handwriting. Inside he finds several home-made tax receipts, and a note explaining that nobody was able to find Sameertia.*

Hmm. How the Hades does someone hide on a ship this size? In a crate in the cargo hold, maybe?

*Examines Fly's effort*

Not bad, considering this ain't her line of work. I'll have to tweak 'em a bit, but I can scan these to print on the right grade of paper, and add some holo-seals... It won't have Sam's jen nay sea kwah, but they'll do...

Shiny! Last worry for this leg of the trip, dealt with while I sawed wood. Combat central reports itchy spot scratched, sir! Thanks Fly.

And now on to a relaxing rest for a day or so.

Don't get weekends on this boat often enough, ought to enjoy 'em when they're here.

RADAR

Saturday, March 11, 2006 8:21 AM (P)

From inside the cargo hold the sound of someone humming can be heard echoing about. The ship purrs, its quiet whir the proof that the peaceful ship is alive. Radar's simple tune fades out as he falls of to sleep once again on the catwalk, his legs dangling over the side. Once again all is serene on serenity.

"There's no place I can be since I found Serenity..."

Gorrammit I overslept and I've probably missed dinner. Just great.

*gets up and gets dressed, puts on his shoulder harness and puts his 8-shot .357Mag revolver in it and opens bunk hatch*

*climbs up ladder into hallway and closes the hatch*

*mutters to himself*

Better go see if'n I can scrounge up some leftovers in the fridge.

*pain walks into the galley and heads to the fridge*

*opens the fridge door*

Huh. Looks like someone made some stew. Hope they don't mind if I help myself to some.

*takes stew pot out of fridge and places it on the table*

*goes to pantry and takes a bowl, a spoon, and a napkin*

*places napkin on the table, opens stew pot and spoons out some stew into the bowl*

*sets bowl on the table right by his napkin and walks over to the counter*

*Pain grabs a mug and heads over to the coffee maker and pours some cold coffee into his mug*

*he sits back down at the table and starts to eat a late breakfast of cold stew, and wonders where everyone is*

Hey Pain!

*Sees his shoulder harness with the 8 shot 357*

Nice gun, what model, 627 or M 327?

*She thinks, Keep hearing things though, won't tell him that*

Cheap imports, those guns, they are just replicas of good american guns.

I'll make a new pot of coffee

Yeah well I took it off a dead guy during a shootout a few years back, before I joined this crew. Perhaps once we land on New Hall I'll try to find a pawn shop and see if'n I can get somethin' better.

Yes, very good actually * she said to him*

Take a wing off a fly.

*takes the pistol outta the back of her pants, drops the clip, cocks it open and clears the round from the chamber.

*hands it to him with the grip facing him*

Take a look. Lighweight, very accurate and packs punch like a full size .45.*

*takes the gun from her and examines it*

Hmmm nice lil' gun ya got here. Light enough for concealed carry but heavy enough to where you'd probably knock someone unconscious if you were close enough to hit 'em with it.

*points it at the coffee maker*

Some damn good sights on it too, probably straighter than the sights on rest of the crew's firearms.

*twirls the gun on his right trigger finger and hands it back to Fly with the grip facing her*

*smiles*

You know what I think I'll take you up on that offer to help me pick out a new gun. Oh and nice tattoo by the way. Not that I was lookin' at it.

Neither Pain nor Fly had seen JRC leaning against the doorway, watching them banter back and forth.
"Took a gander at that there tat myself, Fly, may I also say right fetchin' it is too. Not real sure I like yur taste in pistols tho, but that's just my opinion. No offense."
He wanders over to the fridge, checking the leftover situation.
"Gah, no more stew for me, maybe just a slice or two of this cheese will do.....WHEWWWW, knew I smelt som'un funny. Oh well, forget that idea. Just lost my appetite. Maybe Shipscat will like it. Here kitty, kitty!!"

Took four hours for that thing.

*Smiles at JRC's comment*

Didn't see you there JRC. No offense taken. What do you prefer JRC?

*Once coffee was done she refilled Pains cup and handed it back to him*

*Says to Pain*

OK, as soon as we land, we'll see 'bout gun shopping. I look forward to it

Hey Fly, Pain! Missed you guys the past few days.

(Real World Moment: tax season in the States...argghhh!)

Rumor has it you guys are going gun shopping on NewHall...well if yo don't mind count me in. I still have to replace the revolver I lost on WhiteFall.

*looks to the left and then to the right*

*lowers voice*

Have you guys noticed anything strange recently...because I could'a sworn I saw a naked guy pop out of a crate in the Cargo Bay.

We will hold...we hold till Mal gets back.

Yeah a naked guy. I might'a been dreaming, but when I'm dreaming about naked people...it ain't male people...

I reckon I'd better arm myself...just in case...well...you know the old saying,

Now, you know I'm tough. No, not a lot of pain until it hit the spine, just listened to the music and hugged the chair real hard.

So you like that, Mt. Bike parts. One of my favorite sports.

*Even though Mt. Bikes where pretty much a thing of the past now, when she was a child her dad had given her a bike that she fixed up with big ol' fat tires and she rhode that bike everywhere*

You wanna look in the engine room? Plenty of nooks and crannies down there." *Goes to his bunk, and picks up a large version of a scatter-gun, meant to wound an animal (or human) and do no permanent damage.* "This'll be better than that heavy artillery they're carrying. Don't wanna be poking no holes in this ship." *Checks box, which is empty.* "Hmmm, nothin' here....." *Suddenly, he hears the proximity alert claxon roar to life* "What in the sphincter o'helll!!!!!" *Then, just as suddenly it stops, and a split second later the Cap'n's booming voice, "KITTY!!!
