Sorry it took me so long to get here...

Name: Tommy Robitaille
Age: 31
Height: 5'10
Weight: 195 lbs. (sensitive about his slight overweightedness)
Eyes: Mud-brown
Hair: messy, black, and short

History: Ain't much to say. Tommy's been truckin' around the Black since he was a wee little lad of 18, hopping from boat to boat. With no ties to speak of, he didn't have much loyalty. Not that he plays any important part; no merc, reader, hero is he. Just an average man, trying to stay alive and reasonably comfortable.

Tommy managed to land his passenger spot on Serenity through the recommendations of one 13/Bot-Boy/Pistol-Pants.



Q: Fish or Hogarth?
A: Marillion.

"You mean you just put your ass on the line on account of some perfect stranger? Gee, ain't that unheard off?" he stated sardonically. "Now, please tell me you're not going all knight-ish on me," he said, his increasingly tumid face painfully twisting into a mischevious grin.

Doc looked at the men coming at her and seemingly ignoring her they were quite involved in their converstion. She took a step back and waited for their reaction. WEhen they didn't notice she took off running. She needed to hide somewhere they would never find her.

"My ship! No I'm justcomic relief with an interesting and compelling history. Your looking for Captian Reynolds. I'll get him." John spoke very quickly. Then, he turned and led the girl to the ship. Finally, someone wants to ride that I can trust.

Jake looked up from the conversation and looked around, starteled.

Huh, I couldda sworn... Jake thought, then he picked up her scent.

should I track her, or should I let her go... she really looked like she was in trouble... he wondered, as he began to follow the trail.

"Well if you've got the cashy money, then welcome onboard, Miss." replied Mal. Glancing over at Pain, Mal asked "Pain, ain't you got somethin' to do?"

Pain powered down his grav cart, blew out another puff of smoke from his cigar, and said coyly "Besides bein' cute and adorable? I don't reckon I do, sir."

Mal raised an eyebrow at Pain, who raised an eyebrow in return and asked "What?"

Mal nodded in the direction of the open Cargo Bay door.

Pain rolled his eyes, then said as he headed out "Oh fine! But I'm pretty sure that's been takin' care of already!" As he left the Cargo Bay, Pain muttered "Work work work. That's all I ever do. Hun dan."

Mal shouted back "I heard that!" Turning back to John and the woman, Mal asked the lady "So, Miss, do you got a name?"

Jake went after the girl; Epiktetos shrugged and steered himself toward the ship. He saw one of the crew member —The bigger one, he noted— coming at him. He waved a hand at the man.

"Sorry for the commotion, though I suspect you're not one to be daunted by sudden and abrasive violence," he said, twirling the bloodied up hammer in his hand.

At the mention of money, Bella's face fell immediately. She had some money but not a whole lot, and she didn't figure she would have enough.

She was about to say something, but the captain began talking to someone else. So she stayed quiet.

When he turned back around, she opened her mouth to say something about money, and he asked her name. Grateful for something else to say, she looked back at the captain and said, "Bella, Bella Roland."

He walked toward the infirmary and then saw them. They were so cute. River was sleeping on the table. Over her Simon and Kaylee were holding hands and talking. So cute. He walked to his bunk and started to send a wave. It couldn't have been her but he needed to know.

Pain casually returned to Serenity's Cargo Bay, looking over his shoulder a few times before letting out a sigh.

"So did you find the lady bein' chased by all them angry men, Pain?" asked Mal.

"Um.....no, but I did see some Feds though." replied Pain. Letting out a chuckle, he continued "And if'n you know me and Feds, then you know why I came back here in a hurry."

"Did they spot you at all?" asked Mal again.

Pain looked himself up and down, then raised an eyebrow at Mal and said "Well in case you've forgotten I wasn't voted "Most Likely to Blend In", but to answer your question, no."

"Good." replied Mal, slapping Pain on the back. "Then you won't mind cleanin' out the septic system." Mal grinned and continued "If I can recall correctly it was your turn to clean it out before you left."

Pain gave Mal a pained smile and simply said "Greeeeeat."

The big man flat-out ignored him and turned back. "Obtuse prick," Epiktetos muttered to himself as he marched into the ship's cargo bay. He picked his gun up from the floor, happy to find it where he had left it, then holstered it and went looking for the infirmary. "I'm no stranger to pain", he told himself on the way. "But there's no point in bearing this any longer." He found the place quickly, then soared in and proceeded to make himself at home.

As he was, quite literally, sniffing around for the woman that he had rescued from the mob, Jake ran into a group of feds. Nearly knocking over one of the men, Jake glanced up and then back down quickly, and began walking the other way.
Hope they didn't see...
"Jake Wolfe, you are bound by law for the murder of multipule Alliance officials, evading arrest, and treason. You are ordered to stand down!"
... my face... Jake thought, as he slowly raised his hands. The feds were a mite jumpy, considering how they all had rather large calibur handguns pointed at Jake from multiple different angles...

Why the heck did John have to listen to her. He walked toward the group of feds and unholstered his gun. Firing quickly and with deadly aim he shot half the group just right of the heart. He never shot to kill. He moved with deadly speed around the circle knocking them off as they shot futilly at him. Soon they were all on the floor. "Look buddy this is your last chance if you want to get on Serenity nows the time."

"What the hell do you think you're doing?" asked an irate voice.

"Well, "buddy" there told me I could board "whenever convienient"," he responded to no one in particular. "I'd call this pretty darn convenient!" He then advised himself that the man who had spoken wore what looked like a doctor's outfit.

"Oh! You're the medic!" He gave the girl on the bed a puzzled look. "There's a medic on board?" His gaze settled on the man again. "My heartfelt apologies, sir," he said with all the contriteness he could conjure up. "What you must think of me, now! Storming into your place and turning it inside out!" he had hardly done as much, but he really could use a some fixing, and if groveling before the doctor was what it took do get it, so be it.

OOC: Can I do that? Can I NPC canon characters if it doesn't involve the main plot?
