Subject: Hmmmmmmmmmm........
I guess you're right, we really haven't had any open discusion in character here about it. I'd guess that Jon, Tess and Grace all have and had talked about since they are the original ones to save the boat. I guess it needs to be expanded. I'll put some thought into it, I'll work on a post to open it up to everyone to comment. Sorry for not thinking of it sooner.

It took a bit of back reading but I found where Al brought up the ghost. It was page 6 of the Q&A. That's also where the name was set. It doesn't seem like it's been since April that the game was started. A bit of fough going and player changes and it's hard to believe I got to be part of the crew.
I feel the rhythum of the story and characters is growing nicely.

Subject: Into the Night...........
Stephanie smiled to herself at Jon’s comment and dished him a bowl of the Boa. As the other crew member started to file out of galley the Doc brought the bowl over to the table, placing it down in front of Jon. Touching his arm momentarily she turned and followed the others out of the galley.
Jon sat in silence and enjoyed the Boa….and the sweet fragrance of Stephanie that seemed to linger.
Finishing up Jon resumed his familiar role of galley mate. Setting the galley in order also set his mind in order and order made him feel secure. He knew there had been rough words spoken at the table, but that’s the place it should happen. They were the closest thing he’d ever had to a real family and family doesn’t hide from what they feel. No one said they had to agree all the time and Buddha knows that always happens with this group, but they are learning each other. Jon shut the light off as he left the galley and headed to the bridge.
His crew needed their rest and it was his job to see to the boat as they did. As his normal routine, Jon takes first watch on the bridge. Not that he is much of a pilot but this far out the auto can handle the flight, all he does is watch the lights flicker on the monitor. Destiny is a good boat.
The hours creep by and the fatigue of the long day starts to play on Jon’s mind. He sits deep in the command chair, the gentle rhythm of the lights lull him. Suddenly realizes he is not alone as a mist swirls to his left and he sees the lady in white that haunts Destiny. She is looking toward the front, towards the stars and the black. She seems a little sad to Jon's eye, as if waiting for bad news. Jon wanted to speak to her to ask who she was and why was there? But he could feel that it wasn’t time, those answers would come in time. The mist swirls a bit and she fades away again as she always does. It is only after a few moments that Jon remembers that she has never appeared on the bridge before. Is she also discovering the strength of Destiny? Jon feels this is her boat and she is claiming what is hers, checking that it is in good hands.
It gave him a good feeling and the rest of the watch passed without event. His eyes were really getting heavy when Tess entered the bridge, teapot in hand. It didn't take much prodding to get him out of the command seat. Tess shooed him out and he was glad to relinquish the watch. He decided to tell Tess later that the lady had been on the bridge, he needed rest and there was no need to make Tess any more twitchy then necessary.
Jon made his way to the Captain’s cabin. The peace of being in his own place and the thought of glorious sleep lead him to just lying in his bunk, he didn’t even remove his boot. Just as the sweet mellow bliss of sleep started to pull him under the com blurted,” "WUO DUH TIAN AH! Um, Captain? You might want to come to the cargo bay. We are in Ma Fuhn!"
“Gorram” Jon blurted.
Raising and stepped to room's sink. He slashed some water in his face, stared at the sad face in the mirror and answered the call to duty, only this time it sounded like Grace.

Subject: Party Scout Makes Eagle
I just wanted to let my friends and the friends of Party Scout, know he completed the Eagle rank in Boy Scouts.
Tonight I had the privilage to be the "District Representive" to preside over the "Eagle" board of review for Party Scout.
He completed his Eagle project and paperwork just days before his 18th birthday back on the 26th of October.
I was Scoutmaster of the troop when he crossed over from CubScouts back when he was 11. So I've been there to watch him grow through his Scouting career.
If any of you can the email him a congrat, by all means do so.
And if he pops back for a bit, a well deserved "ATTA Boy" would be in order.

When Bowman returns, he is wearing the silver star of deputy on his duster and a determined look on his face. "Listen Ash, Wolf, I am going to stay here. I think these people need a real lawman right now and I think that best be me. You two go help Wyatt and I'll keep this place from going reaver in a handbasket." he says seriously and then smiles, "Besides, I really don't like the idea of going down in a mine anyway. Too cramped and tight for me. Go on! "
Ash smiled up at Andrew, “These are good people… and deserve a good Sheriff………, I’ve only just meet ya but you sure seem to be the right man.” Ash nodded to Andrew and then looked back to Doc.
With Doc’s help the kid got to his feet. Whatever that was that Doc just shot into him sure worked. “Tian-Ling-Ling, Di-Ling-Ling, Doc thanks, if it ain't a miracle, it sure is a good trick.”
“Well sounds like we’re down to the two worst of the bunch, Andrew you take care and keep your head down. Wolf, let’s go help Capt’n, Miss Willow and Sam. If Pearson is down there with Bridget then this ain’t going to be pretty.” Grabbing his guns and gear Ash hopped on the mule. “We ain’t got no surprises left, so let’s just make dust and get to the mine.”

Subject: Sweet Boa........?
“Oh yes. It can be done and is done in the core hospitals, but you have to be very rich or very influential. But most important for us, with this key and a sample of Priscilla's DNA, someone could get that child and do whatever they wish. So I don't think we can send it to her by post. We could be figuratively speaking, carrying someone's baby here. If whomever was willing to kill a companion for this..." Doc left the thought hanging there for all to contemplate.
“Well that is a pickle for the whore,” Ken said before anyone else spoke up, “but do we give a Goushí? I mean what is in it for us?”
Dropping his spoon into his stew and shooting Ken a dark stare, “ First of all Priscilla is not a whore,…. she’s following a trained profession and not the usual doxy you sniff after. Would you think it fair if she told folks you’re just my hired murderer? You’re member of this boat and I hope you don’t act like some gorram berk when we ain’t here to keep an eye on you”……….then raising an eyebrow…. “ or are you just try’n to prove why you ain’t goin to the party?...........Laughing Jon cracks a smile and says, “either you’re a Guay Toh Guay Nown, or a Yi Dwei Da Buen Chuo Roh.”
“So anyway, like it or not you’re sort of an Uncle now, so let’s just try to find a good side on this.”
Then Jon addressed the rest of crew. “Well we got plenty of time afor we need to worry about the party. But this baby thing adds a whole new angle to this trip. Maybe Priscilla’s sickness had been planned to scuttle whatever plan she had for that baby….someone doesn’t want an heir and you can bet there’s some fancy fed or bureaucrat involved. That Marshall could be on anyone’s payroll….. and if he is this won’t be an easy run. I agree that he’s smart and if he wants what’s on this boat then I wouldn’t be surprised to see Marauders to do his dirty work. “
“Tess, I don’t want to seem too twitchy, but don’t trust any boat that comes near….. and if we get buzzed we go on alert. We can out run most so I’d rather not giv’m time to lock on or be boxed in. Also let me know if it seems like we’re be’in followed.”
Turning to Doc Jon smiled, “If there’s any left I’d be pleased to try some of your sweet Boa.”

I've been having one those weeks that everyone else usually has. Customer visits, prospective buyers visits, new product layouts and our ISO audit starts tonight and finishes on Monday. I'm my stress level will drop Tuesday when much of this is past.
I have done some home work and pulled slang and Chinese phrases from the ref. books so I can start using them more.
I'll get a post up by Sunday night. Mostly looks like Jon going on about the baby, about not worrying now about who goes to the party and preparing for the flight. There are other things besides the Feds to worry about.

Topic: Weird War II
Subject: "Move Out....."
The natural impulse to help drove Doc to aid the scared lab tech. But when he man broke down and ran Jack just stood there staring.
The man reached doors just as they burst open from the force of massive tentacles. Bellowing an angry cry the mote monster grabbed the man and yanked him from the room. The terrified screams were cut short by the gut wrenching crunch and ripping of flesh and bone.
The Doc stood helpless as Brutal yelled, "SONOFABITCH!"……, ""How often do we have to kill this!?"
As they all drew weapons Romo yelled, “Hold fire!, hold fire!” ….."“Move out of reach, don’t waste your ammo!” “Captain we need to move out of this area now!, ……What are your orders sir!"
Grabbing his gear and weapon Jack ignored the pain to follow the sergeant and the captain’s orders.
The Captain looked to team’s guide for advice, “Miss? Is it possible that creature’s are still coming from this rift as we stand here? If so, we need to kill the power as soon as we can. Any idea where we can find these generators that poor fellow was talking about?”
"The crypts below!" She shouted over the growling of the creature. "The stairs by the armour is the fastest way!"
Tentacles thrust into the room again, searching blindly, thrashing wildly, they break through mortar and blocks. The structure shakes and rocks.
Brutal was moving forward when the Sarge called, “Halt”. Jake snapped to a stop as a large block lands where he would have been.
Jack gasped as he saw the building stone just miss him comrade. “Geeze, I’m glad you listen to someone, now get your a** down them steps and clear the way.”
"It is going to bring the roof down!" Greta yells and starts moving toward the stairwell.
Moving out Doc followed to the stairs.
