I meant Asher's nude scene - we got to keep the female audience's attention somehow!

Topic: Voyages of the Rocinante - Firefly RPG QnA Subject: Umm yeah but what about the nude scene
That would be fine too. I was mostly looking for a reason to justify Ash going out without the bombs.

Topic: Destiny Flight - QnA Subject: Posted
Put up a post. Sorry about repeating the Tess/Grace conv but I was afraid it might have been missed and I wasn't sure if Grace or Tess were going to add to it.
Fill free to discuss things on way back to ship before the Battle of Destiny's Infirmary begins.

Topic: Destiny's Flight - A Serenity RPG Subject: Find a job, do a job, get paid, repeat
Persephone, Eavesdown Docks, Badger’s Office, 6:45 pm ST
Business at Badger’s office was concluded with a handshake agreement and a quick goodbye as you were escorted out. One could not help but feel the need to check that any rings you were wearing were still on your fingers after shaking the Crimelord’s hand. On the way back to the ship, The captain mused aloud, “You know it seems a bit twitchy to have go pick these folk up in some hidey place, almost like there may be more to this than take'n a bride to her wedd'n."
It was a wonder and as you pondered it more and more questions blossomed up now that the edge and nervousness of the meaning was done. So many variable here for such an easy job. But then again, shipping wine to a social function was an easy job too.
JC had suspicions about the brothers, that much was sure. Jon knew JC well enough to know when the gunman was itching about something.
Tess radioed to Grace to let her know they were coming back. “Destiny! This is Tess. Ya'll awake in there?"
The multiband crackled slightly, and Grace’s voice chirped out of it, "Hey, Quing Ting, we are very awake and very bored. How goes the mission?"
"Gracie! Jin joh bu chi chi fah joh, woman! You were right,” Tess gritted her teeth and kept her voice down, “That man were every bit as a trumped up strutting lao chien as I ever did see. I am every bit suprised that da shiong la se la ch'wohn tian gave us the gorram job!"
"Okay, first things first, what the heck happened? What did he do to get you all riled up?"
"It's a long, wu toh wu now ugly. Suffice it to say, Mr. Kai Tze did give us the runaround, and he did call Destiny a garbage scow, and he did throw his lei sh'un da yui dian shoo reputation around like it was a gorram crown!
Ang came to the rescue. He took a shine to her, in which we may have to be making some excuses later. I'll let her tell that story.”
She drew breath, her finger still pushing down the comm. button. Tess’s dark eyes took in Angela walking beside her, and her brain reeled momentarily at the enigma that was their shipmate.
“Which reminds me,” she continued into the multiband, “Be sure to be addin' "Companion training" to the list of skills that Ang may or may not be learn'ed in."
“Don’t be forgittin’ to be addin’ this here little date of ya’lls into yer journal, Ang,” she said to Angela after letting go of the comm. button, “Star it, highlight it, sneeze on it, whatever to be rememberin’ yer appointment with our new employer.”
"Angela did what?,” Grace’s voice exclaimed, “Ugh, this is the last time I go to that one for job outings... Wait, Badger liked Angela!? Man she likes catching us off guard"
"Damn right she does,” Tess dodged around a little Chinese man trying to push painted umbrellas into her arms, “Kaida, we're leavin' this rock tonight. We'll be runnin' hot, but not full burn the whole way, so work whatever magic over on our girl before we head out. Could ya'll tell Steph to meet me in our guest rooms? Might'n be wantin' to sweep out the dust bunnies before we git our passengers."
"Will do, Quing Ting. See you soon."
"Sheh sheh. Be there in ten."
(Not sure if Grace wants to warn the team about new person awaiting them)
Persephone, Eavesdown Docks, Destiny cargo Bay, 7:00 pm ST
When the away team arrives at the ship, the cargo bay is open and as you enter you can hear the sound of conversation coming from the infirmary. Grace, Stephanie and a young lady none of you have seen before are there. As soon as they see you come in, the conversation stops. Stephanie stands and walks over to beside Jon, and says. “Everyone. This is Catie Yueshi. Catie, this is Jon, Angela, Tess and JC. Catie is a colleague of mine that is well versed with prosthetics and genetics. I thought she might be able to help us so I invited her to join us.”
(assuming a what? Huh? What do you mean?)
“She needs a place to stay Jon." Stephanie said in that tone that brokered no argument. "Much like many on this ship already, she needs a place where she can stay off the grid and out of the watchful eye. Of course, if this is a problem, I am sure that there are other ships that could find room for two well trained medical personnel.”

Topic: Voyages of the Rocinante - Firefly RPG QnA Subject: My post
I will be tying up the loose ends in my post, cover the caves exploration, willow and Matherson's chat and getting everyone at the meeting. Bromern post is really important as it is the best time for everyone to voice opinions, tell the crew about things you discovered (John) and idea for plans.
I would like to get the meeting wrapped up and the plan being setup by the time we stop for the christmas holidays.

Topic: Voyages of the Rocinante - Firefly RPG QnA Subject: no. You are naked!
I would assume that Sifu would have taken his personal effects with him including any of the weapons he owns. Not knowing of Asher's Gun Store, he probably did not rifle through the kid's stash.

Topic: The Gobber King Subject: Save the bottle, save the world
The room was plunged into darkness. Alôndas threw the bottle at the attacker and took a step back while lower his staff. There was jarring against his arm as his staff was hit, but from the side instead of the front, and there was a sound like wood striking the stone floor.
Mal leaped forward to defend the mage from certain...wooden sword thrashing. He took a blow to his face but hit nothing but air with his sabre.
Gamard the Grim called forth to his God and was rewarded with a light spell illuminating the room from the end of his staff. But just as he did though, the candles relit themselves again as they had when you entered the room.
The man in back lies on his back, unmoving. He is no longer holding his wooden sword (it lies on the ground beside him) but is clutching the bottle of vodka that Alôndas threw in both hands, tight to his chest. It appears that he dropped his sword in order to save the bottle from smashing.
The blow to Mal was actually from the mage’s staff that he ran into as he jumped forward. Luckily, his pride is hurt more than he is, except a bit of redness around the face. Somehow his hat remained on his head though.
The Man in black lies still. He is not moving. He is not breathing as far as you can see (no chest movement).
Wembley stop himself before going out the portal now that light had returned. Crow wisely decided to hold the fire of his bow instead of firing arrows blind into a crowd. Dudley stands by the stairs down, with club in hand.

BACK HISTORY
Maithias Crowmarhte was born into a circus family of acrobats, jugglers and trapeze artists traveling from town to town doing up to 3 shows a day. From a very young age, even for a Syl, he was trained to be like his parents, 2 brothers and 1 sister all acrobats themselves. His parents, as well the owners of The Crowmarhte Brothers Traveling Circus and Daredevil show, a circus composed of mostly Elf's with a few trusted Dwarves and Humans mixed in.
However it was not till he was in his late 60's that he was brought into the families second occupation, working for the Elvin King as spies and gatherer's of information when the circus traveled in the human lands of Aihrde. For the next 10 years Maithias was trained in the arts of the circus and was quite good at them gaining a reputation for being an outstanding marksmen with both the Long and Short bow.
During this time he met and became friends with one of the circus performers, a male Human named Wanwa'er. Over the course of the next few years the two found themselves getting into quite a bit of mischief and became the closet of friends. Almost always where one was the other was never far away.
However some things are destined to come to a violent end and so such was to be the fate of The Crowmarhte Circus. While traveling the various lands the circus was attacked by a large band of human led dark folk and within a few hours the circus was destroyed and everyone lay dead. Everyone that is but Maithias himself and his friend Wanwa'er, who due to luck and his ability to fly whisked them both to safety.
A few days later healed somewhat he returned to the site of the circus's destruction and buried its dead. From that day Maithias and Wanwa'er become very close friends, closer then they had all the time with the circus. They took to living in the woods and occasionally hiring out as muscle, guarding caravans, merchants and doing any profitable job that came their way. It was during this time in the woods that Maithias began to feel a bond, a joining of spirit, you could say with nature and its creatures. He began to develop the skills of a woodland warrior slowly turning to his true calling of Ranger yet retaining his skills of an acrobat from the circus.
However all ‘good' things come to an end in good ways and bad and it was during one job as caravan guards that again tragedy struck. Betrayed from within the caravan was attacked and during a 15 minute fight the raiders were beaten off, one of the drivers found to be in league. However Wanwa'er, Maithias closet and only friend left in Audalis, was killed leaving the Sylvari Ranger mad and alone. While burying his friend, Maithias, now calling himself only Crow, vowed never to love another again............
