And let me just say I the MECHANIC did not disconnect the power to the co-pilots seat 
It was the ship's young GUNFIGHTER that did so...

“Asrev’s got missile lock, disable the pulse beacon.”
With Ryan telling him this over the intercom and Asher in person what Rocinante faced, Wolf sprung into action. Moving quickly to the engine core he gave it as much power as possible to try to increase the ship’s speed. He knew it would not be enough to outrun any missiles per say but it would make turning and climbing faster. It would also buy him a little more time to disconnect the Pulse Beacon. Then before he could stop Ash, the Gunfighter was at a control panel pulling out a blue colored power cord.
“Ash Stop!” Wolf yelled as he made his way to the same panel.
A look inside told Wolf all he needed to know. As he started to replace the power cord to the co-pilots seat he at the same time tried to also find by eye the power line to the Pulse Beacon. (Using any added die to fix, find, disconnect)
“Wolf...I need that system back online. Be a good fellow an' see to it, won'tcha?"
I’m working on it, I’m working on it Wolf thought to himself having no time to respond to Wyatt. All the mechanic could do was his best and hope his best was enough............

Subject: Ho boy, here we go again LOL
After setting the Rocinante down Wolf was able to get a better idea of what systems if any were fragged up. Once again with Ryan’s help, the possible pilot candidate was proving to be a big help with the old girl, Wolf had everything checked in record time. If he did not get the pilot’s seat Fenris might have to talk to Wyatt about keeping him on as crew anyway. With everything fixed and back in the engine room Wolf gave the all clear for the next pilot test, this time the girl candidate. Hopefully she would be nothing like “dude” The first Fenris knew of any trouble was when the girl’s, Tess was her name he thought, voice came over the ship’s comm
“Hope you boys is ready down in engineerin’. Things might’n be gittin’ a little dicey.”
~Dicey, what the Wuh duh ma huh ta duh fung-kwong duh wai-shung doh did she mean by dicey?~
Then the ship started to turn and bank and as Ash came running into the engine room Wolf knew it was bad whatever was going on. As Ash looked over to Wolf, asking
“You tell me what you need.”
“I have no idea what I need, what the **guay is going on??”

Subject: A Bad day to be an Alligator
After the introductions were over Wolf made his goodbyes and headed once more to his engine room for a last check that everything was ok for the upcoming pilot tests. With everything now once more in the green, thanks to this Ryan fellow, Wolf was confident they were good to go. Calling to Wyatt Wolf let him know the tests could commence at the Captains leisure and with the arrival of Ryan in the engine by Wyatt’s orders they were ready. As the ship lifted off the ground, hovering under the power of the side engines Wolf kept a close eye on the readouts. Then almost as if in dire warning the first pilot to take the test called him over the engine room intercom
“Wolf dude! Let’s get ready to rumble!!!!”
Fenris Apollo aka Wolf knew this was going to be bad and he was right, by the end of the ‘test’ flight he had warnings everywhere. Racing to put a patch here or release a over pressured valve he had no time to go to the bridge to find out what the *Da-shiong bao tse shr la doo tze! was going on.
Turning to Ryan he shouted to him.
“Ryan please get to the bridge and find what that **go tsao duh idiot is doing, the engines can’t take a lot of this! I‘ll do what I can to maintain engine integrity.”
As the pilot candidate ran out of the engine room Wolf went back to fixing anything broken in the wild movements. Wolf swore if no one killed this ‘Gator’ person he would personally put a few caps into the ***Shee-niou himself.

Topic: Voyages of Rocinante - Serenity/Firefly RPG
Subject: Combined back post w/ a little help from Brom
The mechanic took the tool from John’s hand, thanking him, and resumed his quick work under the open compartment. Waiting for the guy to emerge John laid his backpack against the side of the ship, it didn’t take long as soon the mechanic was standing, surveying John, the man’s eyes lingering on his sidearm, and shaking his hand.
"Thanks again for the interlocutor, woulda sucked having to crawl all the way out to grab it. Name’s Fenris.
“John Ryan.”
“Glad to meet ya."
John was just about to explain his presence when a familiar pop caused Fenris, who had been collecting his tools, to swear loudly and an unfamiliar voice to sound through the bay-door speaker, addressing Fenris as Wolf and asking what was happening. The mechanic, Wolf, responded through the in-ship comms before turning back to John.
"Well like I said it was nice meeting ya and thanks for the help, but I have to get back to trying to fix this go tsao duh of an electrical system."
John smiled a bit once Wolf had finished, he couldn’t help it, his prospects looked even better now he knew the mechanic was having problems with the electricals.
“Gimmee a looksee. I’m not half bad with dog humped electricals.”
At first Fenris was hesitant to let the stranger under the ship; however he had still not been able to figure out the problem. Looking this ‘John Ryan’ over he decided, against better judgment, and went with his gut. Waving him to where he had just crawled out of he made it very clear what would happen if John were to attempt sabotage.
“Ok go for it. But mister if you damage her more then she is already I’ll pack you into one of her engine exhaust fans and then start her up.”
Nonplussed, and reaching into an inner pocket of his jacket, John pulled out a miniature tool case and asked Wolf about his tools.
“Can I use some of your tools? Most o’ mine are packed and ‘n’ these won’t do the big stuff” Brandishing the small case to make his point clear. Noting that the tools Ryan was showing were the real thing the mechanic’s trust of the strange went up a notch.
“Yeah help yourself.”
Removing his jacked the stranger slipping under the ship and, using the interlocutor, opening the compartment flap John instantly saw the shiny new grav-dampener and surmised the problem, having seen similar before, a compatibility issue between the ship’s software and the new part’s firmware. Diligently, however, John pulled a pencil torch from the tool case and began examining the surrounding systems, finding nothing else wrong he calls out to Wolf.
“You want a quick patch or something more permanent”
After getting a quick run down on the exact nature of what Ryan was talking about Wolf, knowing you get nothing for free, leaned over to look Ryan in the face.
“Say I agree to you fixing her up what do you want in return. Ain’t got much creds”
“Gimmee a chance as pilot and I’ll patch it for free, the proper fix’ll ground her for a while and I’ll charge if I’m not crew.”
Hearing the stranger’s offer he knew he’d have to ask Wyatt first. Moving once again to the intercom he called the Captain once more.
“Cap’n I got a take on what the problem is and I can’t fix it. I got a guy here o’ name of Ryan says he can do a quick or permanent fix but he wants a shot at pilot”
"Well, then," Wyatt's calm voice returned followed by a slight echo. "I suggest y' allow the fine gentleman his recourse, an' then show him t' the bridge."
Returning to where Ryan waited under the compartment, Wolf once again kneeled down to talk to the man.
“Cap says you get your shot if you can do a perma fix and get us up for the test safely.”
Knowing he'd heard his best offer John spent the next short while flat on his back, the grav-dampener above him, expertly disconnecting, re-wiring, and re-connecting it. First he had to isolate the component from the surrounding systems, easy enough, but then re-wiring everything so that it worked hitch-free was more troublesome and involved a small element of trailing and testing connections until the right connections were found. As surprising as he found it John hadn’t actually done this kind of work on a firefly before, but he’d done it on other ships of similar age and things weren’t significantly different. Finally, reconnecting the device, John locked up the compartment and slipped out from under the ship, carefully pulled on his jacket, and gave his verdict.
“She ain’t delicate but don’t let her get thrown about. Probably be best for me to keep an eye on the internals if you’re flying though, make sure all’s well.”
“Thanks for the fix. Well Captain Wyatt said you get a shot at being our new pilot so I better get you up to the bridge ta meet him”
(OOC: Ok stopped the post here so Lance can post an intro between himself and the stranger and how Ryan ends up in the engine room with Wolf. Will post a reaction to ‘Dudes’ wild flying later.)

“Liou koe shway duh biao-tze huh hoe-tze duh bun ur-tze Ching-wah TSAO duh liou mahng!!” Wolf could not help swearing realizing the damn interlocutor had fallen out as he was moving into position. Having no choice but to inch backward he saw a hand pick up the tool and heard a male voice as the interlocutor was passed to him.
"This what you need?"
“Ahh yeah thanks” Wolf replied as he took the tool from the other mans hand. Inching back forward he positioned himself once more at the last section of open engine. Working quickly he had finished the last repairs and crawled out to get his first look at his ’helping hand.’
Standing before the Roc’s mechanic was a short cropped curly black haired man dressed in smart shoes, dark trousers, a dark waistcoat and an under laying jacket, the collar open. As Wolf grabbed a rag from his tool box and began cleaning the grease from his hands he also noticed that the newcomer was armed with an old service pistol strapped to his right leg in a gunslinger’s holster. Against the wing wheel of the Roc a large backpack was resting, surely belonging to the armed stranger.
“Thanks again for the interlocutor, woulda sucked having to crawl all the way out to grab it. Name’s Fenris” Putting out his now cleaned hand for a shake.
“John Ryan”
“Glad to meet ya” Wolf replied as he bent to pack up his tools. However just as he was about to straighten up a loud electrical pop came from the area where he had just been working.
*“gou shi gos se, Shah muh Ma-shong!”
Then almost at once Wyatt’s voice came quite loudly from the speaker just inside Roc’s open bay door.
"Wolf. There's a test goin' on here. What's this feihua?"
Shaking his head Wolf moved to the speaker, and pushed the to-talk button.
“Sorry Captain but it’s the electrical’s I just can’t figure out what the hell is wrong with them. I‘ll keep trying” releasing the button he turned back to Ryan.
“Well like I said it was nice meeting ya and thanks for the help, but I have to get back to trying to fix this +go tsao duh of an electrical system.”
(OOC: Ok have left it open for Loki to continue the RP between the two of us.)

Seeing as Asher is training Willow to better her weapons skills could he do the same with Wolf?? Say like train him in Assault Rifles.
Also that leads me to the possibility if all crew trained together we could cross train the hell out of all of us. I’d go into specifics but I just noticed that Wyatt, Ash, Sam, and Willow all do not have their LvL of dice in their skills like the rest of the crew does, so it‘s kinda hard to know who is better in what..

That is a great piece of art work Brom!
Ok now on to your post. I'm a little confused by it's timeline. During your stare down with white eyes I drop a tool and start cussing. Does that take place during my post or does my post take place later in your post after the auditions where I've supposedly told you whats wrong and I'm again outside trying to fix it.
I hate to say it but that sorta screws up what Roger had planned for Loki and I as far introing him into the game.
His intro is supposed to be during the auditions, per Roger, and per my post I could not have told you whats wrong with the ship as Wolf himself is stumped. Thats where Loki comes in he will show Wolf what the prob is they'll interact and I'll bring him to you for consideration to be added to the crew to keep up with the latest advances so to speak in electronics and to help me as needed with the engines. That's also why I timed my post during the auditions that started at 1pm.
So a little confused

Subject: Lets get the Intro's started :)
Beaumonde, Eisley Moss Space Port, 7:00am
As Wolf along with Ash moved threw the streets of Eisley Moss gathering the needed supplies for Willow and Ma he still could not help think on what had caused Sam to disappear. What was in Sam’s past that made him dangerous to know, on top of that, was Sam even his real name? No matter, short of Sam being an ex-Alliance hit man, Wolf would have his back if called.
------------------------------------
Beaumonde, Eisley Moss Space Port, 1:45pm
*“Da-shiong bao tse shr la doo tze!” Wolf swore as he stood up from beneath the new Grav Dampener before him. Ever since he had put this ~Ai ya~ Dampener in he had, had nothing but trouble with it. It had started to seem that every time he fixed something, something else went wrong. From the power shutting off, once he had it up and running, it overloaded. Then once he had gotten that under control it had then died yet again. The worst thing of it all this was the second! ~Ai ya!~ Grav Dampener he had installed! The first one had been worse shutting down not only power area’s and the engines but at times separate electrical systems of Rocinante itself. The worst of these systems the NAV comp. Be just the ship’s luck to be out in the black with no idea where to go.
Now Wolf, though he considered himself a +zhen de shi tian chai when it came to engines, had to admit, if only to himself, that he was pretty weak in the electrical aspects of the Rocinante. Though he had gotten most of the electrical systems up and running his lack of sure knowledge of said systems had him feeling it was not going to be for long. However at the moment he had decided to try something new by rerouting the power lines of the ship through a stabilized power meter/protector matrix programmed to keep the power from shutting off or over loading. Hopefully this would work. If not then he would have to talk to Captain Wyatt and tell him that his best was just not going to be enough where those area‘s were concerned
Crawling back under the Dampener he positioned himself, rather tightly once again, to continue. Reaching to his side for his Interlocutor he found it not where he had left it, right side pocket of his tool belt. Instead it was lying on the ground, out of reach, behind him having fallen out of the same said tool belt!.
