The Man They Call Soul...


Thread 11!! Figured it was about time for the Cap'n to do somethin' "Captainy".

Basic storyline: we're finally spacebound after Safe farted and nearly killed us all. What? So what if I said fart! There's nothing wrong...but...okay, fine!! Safe released bodily gas. Better? Stupid network execs.

Well, IRL, I will be headin' away on vacation for the next 5 days, so...anyone up for a summary of Episode 10?

LMAO!!! Love the thread title.
I was planning on starting a new thread (it was due) and calling it "Destiny: Full of Gas" in homage to "Out of Gas", but this was so much more... dramatic!

I'll do a summary in a bit, same with a update on the story.

JAZAF


OOC: while we're waiting for that......

Jazaf makes it to the bathroom just be for the lovebots catch up to him. Being a man who likes his privacy he locks the door as soon as he is inside.
"Poo!" Bubbles pouts. "I was hoping to use this!"
Lexabot shakes her head at Bubbles, disapproving of her intentions but amused as well.
"I hope I didn't miss.....it..." Jack says as he catches up. The bots exchange looks and then smile at Jack.
"Say Jack." the say in unison, almost in a sing song way.
"Uh oh!" Jack does an immediate about face and speeds down the corridor. However, the bots are faster and they wrestle him to the ground.
"Now I'm not saying that I haven't fantasized about this, I just wich it was under better circumstances!" Jack says as he tries to squirm away from the lovebots.
"Now stay still mister Jack, this won't hurt a bit." Bubbles says as she plunges the syringe into Jacks posterior.
Jack makes a slight squeaking sound, not unlike a surprised Guinea Pig, and passes out.
"See?" Bubbles proudly says, "Told ya this would do the trick!"

Prepare for a long summary: I kinda got carried away (didn't realise how much had happened)

---

Summary of Previous thread ( http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=2&t=18572)

In town, two goons make trouble for the owner of the bar Needy broke into. It seems the little boy whore stole something of value to them, and now they are determined to get it back.

But enough with the peril already, on Destiny Willie is given the tour of the ship. Meanwhile, Dr Me returns to the infirmary to check on his many experiments only to find out that one of them had escaped. He had been working on a way to cure Needy of his current shortness dilemma but now a giant mutant lobster man by the name of Dr Zoidberg was on the loose!
The sight of said lobster man caused everybody to have a hankering for cooked lobster... everybody except Serenity that is who apparently freed all the lobster on board.
(What a party pooper.)

Eventually, the work on repairing the ship is complete and Willie reluctantly starts to say her goodbyes. The crew are having none of it though. By means of convincing words and songs, the crew encourage her to stay, and thankfully she agrees.

With the males all pining over the new female on board, Flechette orders anyone with a penis out the room so the women can discuss the situation.
Hoping for an entertaining catfight though, the men listen in. Unbeknowngst to them, the women foresaw this and decide to have their own fun by using the secret exit in the room, to spy on the men trying to spy on them. Follow?

But then the men catch on. Remembering that the robot "Blossom" is still with the girls, Me comes up with an ingenious plan to use the special features on Bubbles, to hack into the robot mole and discover where the women are and what they are up to.

But Blossom is in on it, tells the women that the men are trying to spy, and so the women decide to put on a show - teasing Girl-on-girl action!

These are some damn fine women we've got on board - and a pretty complex plot too ;)

To make things even more jaw-droppingly shocking, Soul leaves the menfolk, and appears on screen with the women, ready to "contribute"

Of course all play and no peril makes... well a hell of a lot of fun, but Needy always finds the trouble.

After returning from his bunk (can you blame him?) he hears a commotion outside Destiny.
It turns out the bartender and the two goons have tracked him down, and now they're mad.

Elsewhere, Safe plays a mean joke on the girls but gets his comeuppance when he is knocked out cold when he runs into a low hatch.

As Needy tries to prove his courage by facing off against the villains and offering a truce by returning the stolen property, Safe is taken to the infirmary by Me who requests a chainsaw.

After dealing with the goons, with a little help from Serenity, Needy returns to the ship tired of it all.

Meanwhile Safe is about to get a bionic leg courtesy of Dr Me, when the love-bots (who are designed to protect human life) jump the doctor, preventing such drastic action.

Eventually, everyone on the crew is asking "can we just get off this damn rock now?"

So, it seems everything is tying itself up neatly right?
Wrong!

Safe, still on the operating table, lets one off.
(It must have been the cranberry juice)

As the toxic gas passes through the rooms of the ship, the crew try to escape it's evil clutches...

OOC: Since nobody's posted for a while, I might as well bump this thread with a little plot

Alone in the confines of Needy's shuttle, the companion and the ship's new passenger Willie, sit quietly on his bed.

"Are you sure it's safe?" the young mechanic asks him

"Of course. Remember, I'm a professional", Needy reassures her. "Besides, what else are we going to do? We can't go back out there until its safe to do so. Since we're both in here... together... alone... we might as well have a little fun. In fact I view it as my responsibility to make sure you have a good time on our ship"

"But... the others. Will they mind? I mean, do you do this with all of them?" Willie asks cautiously.

"No. Are you kidding? Never. But, for you... I wanted to share this with you"

"I bet you say that to all the girls"

"No, I don't"

Willie lets out a deep breath before replying "Okay, give it to me"

Needy reaches over to her and presses a button.
With that Willie's body tingles with sensation all over, as she struggles to contain her ecstasy.

"Good stuff huh?" Needy asks smiling, as Willie bites her lip

Connected to the mechanics arms and legs are tourniquet bands with wires running from them. The electrical current that runs through the wearer's body stimulates the nerve-endings inducing a prolonged state of pleasure.
Continual use isn't recommended as it can cause cardiac arrest, but for short bursts... it can be very entertaining.
Needy learnt that having such a "Stimulator" is very useful in a companion's kit. And a great way to relieve stress after a tough day.

Since he had no idea what sort of reaction it would trigger in himself due to his recent mutation, he dared not use it on himself for the tiem being... but Willie? She deserved a try.

...

OOC: So, I've noticed my posts are becoming more and more sexually charged - I suppose that's expected of a boy whore. Didn't intend them to be though... they just always turn out that way when I write Needy being... well, needy

JAZAF


"Finally! a Shower!" Jazaf says jubilantly.
He lets the water wash the filth away as he reflects on the past few days.
"Lemme see here, who else do I have to repay?"
Jazaf's eyes go wide, a smile leaps to his face and he shouts "I'm Free!"
He hurriedly turns off the shower, wraps a towel around him and bolts out of the bathroom with one hand holding up the towel. He spots the Lexabot in the common room notifying the crew that the stench has been jettisoned into space. She heard him shout earlier and turned to face him. Jazaf takes her in both his arms and spins her around saying 'I'm free' multiple times.
"What's the occasion?" She asks.
"I don't owe anyone anything for seeing my gear!"
"You mean that gear?" she replies pointing down.
"Huh?"
Jazaf follows the finger and notices that his towel fell to the ground. Jazaf quickly scans the room to see if anyone was there. Unfortunatley, he spots the whole crew save Jack, Willie, and Needy.
Jazaf hangs his head in shame, rewraps himself in the towel and heads to his bunk.
"Doc, Serenity, Amy, Flechette, ...." can be heard as Jazaf slowly walks away.

OOC: I've noticed that too Needy, Way to stay in Character!

Doctor Me carefully considers the naked Jazaf’s... situation... with a professional eye.

“It might interest you, Jazaf, that I’m working on a recombinant DNA re-sequencing injection for Needy, to enlarge him back to his normal size. Perhaps I could develop an alternate formula for, you know, other uses…"

OOC: Sorry Jazaf, but that was just TOO DAMN FUNNY!!!

...

After the scintillating fun is over with the companion's toys, Needy sighs and confesses... "You know, I think it's safe to go out there now. It probably has been for about half an hour or so"

"So you've been keeping me here under false pretences then?"

"Maybe not false... but dragged out. Can you forgive me?"

"I suppose" she grins. "Shall we see what everyone else is up to then?"

"I guess it could be fun"

After Doctor Me's generous offer, the lovebots approach him, but keep their eyes on Jazaf.

Bubbles: "You know, Doctor, it is a bit chilly in this room."

Buttercup: "It's cold."

Blossom: "Positively frigid."

Doctor Me: "Ah, indeed so. That explains everything." The Doctor bows. "My apologies, Jazaf. Clearly, due to this alternate plausible explanation, you would have no need of my services!"

Bubbles (to the other love-bots): "He does look cold. Do you think we should warm him up?"

Blossom and Buttercup (still watching Jazaf, nodding vigorously): "Yes!"

The three love-bots escort Jazaf back to his bunk.

Doctor Me continues thinking about this drug, though, as he could make a fortune selling it to the Companion Guild.

Destiny sails into the Black with the flatulence safely vented... or is it??

Safe hits the com. "I feel I should apologize to the crew. The recent smell was truely an embare-ass-ment *snicker snicker* ahem... and I have taken it upon myself to lecture Jack and Dr. Me in the errors of their gastric care. I hope that they will make better choices in the future with what they eat."

"And one more thing... I'd like the jettison all bottles of cranberry juice..."

FLECHETTE


"Like hell you will!"

Flechette, all mused from tussling with Scottish Jayne, looks up at the PA -

"Get rid of any sort of fruit juice?" Hell get rid on anything vaguely considered food or a cooking ingredient? Did that stench kill a few brain cells?"

"Now Darlin'" Jayne began - stretching out some, "it might not be the worst idea they've had - I think that cloud may have corroided some of the metal in this flying junk pile..."


"Shh! If any one hears you call Destiny Junk I'm not getting in their way! 'Side I swapped a new cake recipe - calls for 3 different juices..." Flechette scrambles out of the bed and starts throwing on clothes, stops, eyes Jayne.

"Alrighty woman- that look means trouble and not the fun kind," Jayne shook his head - "what?"

"just you built Lexa which was probably fairly complicated and you're a decent thief - I was wonderin if you could build a refrigerated lockbox- pendin' Caps permission a course..."

"You're gonna let me tinker around the galley?" Jayne grins and heads on out, "let me at it!"
and he heads down the corridor..

"Jayne?"

Flechette's holding out a pair of pants - and a wide grin.

Hello gang!
Sorry to have been AWOL. Life got in the way, and no one had replied to anything of mine in ages so I didn't get one of those friendly reminders.
Anyway, I'm back--nose plugs in hand and ready to go.

Flechette, be sure to give us Tim's address when he leaves-- I just happen to be running an AnySoldier drive right now so I'll hopefully have some stuff to send his way.

Hope you're all well!
PS I just got acceptance for a Lemelson Center Fellowship at the Smithsonian in DC. I'll be there Sept-Nov so hopefully I'll be able to see some of you East Coasters for Serenity Day! Eh? Anyone?

Well, I have to travel farther south for research at other locations and my boyfriend and I will want to visit his college roommate who goes to law school in Georgia-- so we might get closer and have a better chance of meeting up... (yes, boyfriend is tagging along with me to DC. Good for me as he'll split the housing cost!)

So, remind me where you live? And you too, Fletchette! Hopefully in one of the Carolinas or Georgia (don't you live in one of those states or did I make that up?) Anyone else I'm forgetting? It would be totally cool to finally meet in person, and watch some Firefly together too!

On his way to the kitchen, Safe is distracted by Amy and trips over a mysterious object.

'Was that a leg?' Safe thinks as he tumbles to the floor. 'Flechettes leg tripping me?'

He rolls along the corridor and through the ship, like a human tumbleweed on an errant breeze.

"Help! Jane! How do you stop this crazy thing? I wanna get off!!"

Hmm, original post reply to Safe apparently never showed up. Interesting. Let's try something similar:

Hi Dale! (Safe!)
I hope you're doing well! Thanks, it's good to be back :) Also, do I get to read the other chapters of Boros? Pretty please? I think where I left off the gang had escaped the Blue Hands into a sewer system... very suspensful. I'd love to read the rest!

Serenity--I would love to meet you and Flechette this fall! I've always thought that was the one sad thing about this forum, we never get to meet in person. Well, we can have a nice knitting party this autumn. I'll keep in touch as my plans progress, we probably won't be able to schedule anything until September. But I'm looking forward to it!

And a big hello and round of hugs to the rest of our fine crew!

A get together sounds like fun! Yep I'm in Greensboro NC and regretfully there no way I can make DragonCon - started out as going, Tim gets deployed; cancel - start to go w/ friends anyway- immed supervisor asks favor as she has a once in a lifetime travel opportunity - plans canceled again :(

So unless a really fabulous airfare comes up - leaving Sat and returning Mon) I'll simply have to ask you all to have a drink or 2 for me

Tim has left for mobilization training - I've been to my eldest niece's wedding in AZ - have vague plans to visit Tim at Ft Dix NJ before he leaves the country when he gets his 4 day "you aint seeing your family for a long while" pass


Have I mentioned I'm really sick of traveling?

I hope all is well with everyone and we get to talk both In Character and out soon!

Flechette!! Good to hear from you again!

I think summer has indeed slowed the posting down.
I've been meaning to PM you. I'm expanding on the character I created for you in the Boros story and I wanted your opinion.

"Flechette DeBeaucamp: Tough, no nonsense. Cajun ancestry. Uses a restaurant as her cover. Became part of the underground because her sister was used as an experiment, similar to River’s, only it left her sister as nothing more than a drooling husk when the Blue Sun Corp. discarded her; Her sister resides with her parents."

I've got a story bubbling around in my head and I needed the characters fully fleshed out.

Hi Safe, Flechette!
Everyone must be on planet leave time...
Not that I've been any less AWOL myself. I did take a fantastic canoe/backpacking trip in Algonquin Park, Ontario with my family that lasted for more than a week (few extra days in Toronto Airport because they confused our camping equipment with "dangerous goods" and we got accused of being terrorists and it took a while to convince them to stop treating us that way...still working on getting our money back, but anyway....) so that partly explains my absence. The fiasco with the airlines has been dragging on, not to mention dealing with the insurance company responsible for paying us back from a rear-ender we were in last year... And work has been crazy busy. So it's basically been the stressful time of dealing with annoying corporations and paperwork... Oh yeah, and when we emerged from a week of hard physical labor in the backcountry filled with lakes, lilipads, and loons, we were greeted with newspapers documenting that Hezbollah was shelling Israel... rude welcoming back to the real world!
Fun things lately include packaging up lots of boxes for soldiers overseas. I just sent another 7 boxes today! I've been doing a drive at my gym which has worked really well. Flechette, I really was serious about sending stuff to your hubby if you'll give me his address and suggestions of what he and his crew might like.
Rewatched a couple Firefly episodes last week which did much to calm my nerves after the airline debacle. I was surprised to notice details I hadn't seen before--such as at the beginning of "Shindig" Wash is concerned that they're coming up fast on Persephone and Mal leaves the bridge saying "Let me know if we all die" and Wash says "Ok, will do" or something like that--don't think I'd quite caught that before.
Anyway, hope you're all well and surviving the heat ok. It's been so nice here today we were able to have the windows open during the day for the first time since our trip (we don't have AC). Really nice!
Hugs all round,
Amy

Oh, duh, what I meant to say was "yay Safe!" for continuing to work on your Boros adventure. I think I devoured the rest of the story and then didn't yet get a chance to write comments for you. I will do so as soon as I get some free time (whenever that will be!). I think it's awesome you're working on character development. Even if you don't get to reveal all the background tidbits on a person in your story, I'm sure the greater knowledge of your characters will help enrich your text. Good luck! Good for you for keeping it up!

Best, Amy

Whoa... that's a whirlwind trip! Funny thing, I was camping/fishing near Algonquin a couple of weeks ago.

Hope you at least enjoyed the nature even if the airport was a hassle.

I've got a character background for you too, it's just not finished yet. I'll gradually get them all done.

Hi Flechette!
So I'm heading down to visit a friend and archives in Atlanta this weekend, and will be passing through NC and SC Wed & Thur by car... don't you live somewhere in one of those states? I would love to see you at some point (I'll be driving back up the next week and stopping to do research at Duke U.)! Also, if you had suggestions for cheap places to stay (wow, travel is so expensive!) or sites to see along the way, I would really appreciate it, never been south of Richmond before!
Please let me know, you can reach me at [redacted] I would love to hear from you/see you at any point. I'm going to "reply" to Serenity now too, I don't seem to have email addresses for either of you directly...
Cheers, Amy

Ooops, after my first hasty message I reread your reply to me earlier and see that your in Greensboro--we were planning to stop there Wednesday night anyway as it's half way to Atlanta from DC (I have a grant with the Smithsonian so that's where I'm stationed). Any recommendations of cheap places to eat/stay in Greensboro would be super appreciated by me and Chris (bf)! And if you're not free this week, maybe next week on our way back up north? That would be early in the week, Monday or so. Hope to see you! Just let us know,
Amy

Hi Serenity! This is horrible last minute notice, but my boyfriend and I have just planned to drive down to Atlanta this week so I can visit archives and we can visit his college roommate over the weekend. We're leaving Wed, stopping midway for the night, and finishing the drive Thur. So we will be passing your way? hopefully? Thursday and would love to meet up. Or we'll be coming back north early next week, Mondayish... We would love any suggestions of cheap places to eat/stay/attractions to see along the way. Let me know if you get a chance, you can reach me at [redacted]
Hope to see you!!
Cheers, Amy

Amy - I'll either email or call you later this afternoon with some recommendations. Should be a few hotels in the $50-65 range if thats okay?

Wednesday is a bit iffy - I work 9:30am to 6:30pm normally but I expect I'll be at work at least til 7pm (or later)due to some new systems getting folded into Time Warner sooo let me know which hotel you wind up at and we'll go from there-

Sun, Mon, Tues no problem- currently- again depends on how well these system merge in with us :-}

I'd love to meet you in person! Thanks for thinking of all of us

Looks like I went AWOL that time. RL tapped my shoulder then gave me a sucker punch! After my sister joined the Army she got married within the year! We've never met her hubby and his parents never met my sister. At least I can take comfort in knowing that Both sets of parents have met and seem to enjoy each others company.

The Man They Call Soul...


AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

"Why has my Gorram ship been so quiet?!?!?!?"

Soul paces the hallways, searching for anyone, anything, but there is silence. Finally he hears a laugh, and heads down to the passenger dorms to investigate. Throwing open the first door he comes to--he sees Jazaf, and all three Lovebots, in a rather uncompromising position. Spinning around quickly, Soul clears his throat.

"Er...Jaz, I could really use your help on the bridge. I got a wave for our next job. I kinda need you to lay out the whole...nav...thing..."

Without waiting for a response, Soul walks quickly away to search for the rest of his wayward crew.

*Slides through an open doorway into Soul's path*

"Hello Newma... ummm... Hi Capt'n!"

*Looks around nervously* "I need a place to hide, fast."

*Soul folds his arms and cocks an eyebrow at his handyman* "What did you do?"

"I Kinda filled Serenity's hairdryer with powder." A scream of rage echo's through the ship.

"Now if you'll excuse me..."

*Safe bolts down the hallway as if the hounds of hell were at his heels.*

---

The sound of commotion outside awakens Needy from his sleep.

"How long was I asleep?" he wondered. It felt as if they had been in stasis for months.

Immediately jumping to his feet so that he stands at the grand height of 2ft, he quickly throws on some clothes and makes his way out of his room, following the voices.

"Hopefully the medicine the doctor's been working on is ready" he said to himself, realising that his short stature wasn't doing him any favours, with the exception of looking up the women's skirts. Not that that was any consolation since most of the women he came into contact with wore trousers. Gone were the days of his whoredom.

Still Willie was nice... if only he could have convinced her to stay in stasis with him.
"Oh well, can't have everything"

"Ah" Needy called out as he turned a corner and spotted Dr Me "just the man I was looking for"

Unfortunately, Me didn't see Needy... at least not soon enough. By the time, Me had realised where the voice was coming from, it was too late. The boy whore was already under his feet, causing the doctor to stumble before he fell flat on his face, helplessly suffocating Needy with his crotch.

Fortunately for Serenity, she doesn't use a hairdryer.

Her scream of rage, however, was from discovering that the powder Safe used was her very expensive and delicately scented with the essence of some rare flower talcum powder that she only used on very special occasions.

"I am going to KILL Safe!" she yells, grabbing her mule's leg, a large bowie knife and several grenades. She storms into the hall, running into Soul.

"Where'd he go, sir? Don't try to hide him from me, it'll just prolong his agony!"

"Me! That would be great! It's a small world called Hellmouth. Strange name, but the man I spoke to said that there was work a-plenty to be found there."

Me made a strange look on his face, but then quickly smiled again. "Then Hellmouth it is!"

"Thanks!" Soul replied. "Oh, and if you see Serenity beating Safe into a pulp, just leave them be."

Me chuckles and turns to leave.

Soul couldn't help but to break out laughing.

That only causes Soul to laugh harder, and all he can do is point his finger towards the hallway.

OOC: God, I missed this!!

"uhh...did you say left foot green or right hand blue, Bubbles?" Jazaf asks.
"I said Left Hand Red" Bubbles replies.
"Gotcha. What's next?" Blossom chirps.
"Can't... reach... Spinner...!" Buttercup says as she reaches out from the tangled mess.
"hmm... Nekkid Twister is more challenging than I thought." Jazaf says.

"Awww!" the lovebots cry in unison.
"Ain't it just like a Captain to ruin the fun." Jazaf complains. He tries to pull himself free to get to his duties but finds out that he's stuck.
"heh, Lucky for us it seems like we won't be able to untangle ourselves for a while yet. In the meantime, I got other fun ideas we can do."

"Yay!"

On the Destiny's bridge, Doctor Me works his way through the Navigation Console User's Guide.

"Hmmm... Not quite as advanced equipment as I'm used to but... this looks like the triple-axis display and..."

Suddenly, the nav console comes to life, with blinking lights, spinning dials, and (something no mad scientist can do without) a set of rabbit ears with lighting coursing up and down between the antennae.

Nodding in satisfaction, Doctor Me then thumbs through Bryce's Catalog of Known Planetary Objects.

"Hellmouth, huh? Well, THIS would be the fastest course. It DOES go through this dangerous asteroid field, but I'm sure that our pilot is good enough to keep us alive. Huh. I wonder who our pilot is?"

Doctor Me plots the course and feeds it into the nav computer.

Soul's eyes go wide as a revelation hits him.

"WE DON"T HAVE A PILOT!!!"

Then an idea hits him.

"Ooh!! Let's have pilot tryouts!!"
