Baldly? Are you sure about that one? I rather like my hair.


Anyhoo...


I believe Ebo was writing a song, MG was catching up with the thread and now we moved again, Cozen was getting astral, PR is still MIA, Grey was finishing up the engines, well, I can't remember what everyone was doing....

I know I was in the arms of Static, dancing the night away.

Oh yeah, cozen's a constellation now.

Quote:

*cozen is enveloped by an ethereal wave. He is transformed into a group of blinding stars, which twirl at maddening velocities, then speed off beyond Grey's trebuchet out into space. Within moments, cozen becomes a new constellation, invisible to the naked human eye, having alighted at his new home on the Perseus Arm*

Hey coz, as long as you're up there, could you say hi to my cows for me? They're in Orion's Belt. Star is in the middle, Starlight is on the right, and Grasshopper and Beauty are sharing the one on the left. I'd like them to know that I'm still thinking of them. (It's a long story as to why I have cows assigned to constellations.)

Or maybe since we have this shiny starship we could just swing by?

The engines were done some time ago. Last thing I finished was the shields and weapons. I'm chillin' in my gunnery chair on the bridge right now.

Here's an odd question. Who's the captain of this beast?

Ebo's been captain for ages. She's our leader...huh, how did...when we attacked...three switches...yes, Ebo is our captain.
edited for posterity: She did start the original thread.

TRM is first officer, Grey (that'd be you) is the chief engineer, looks like Static (that'd be the sexy guy in the flightsuit) is the pilot, twg (that'd be me) is the Jack O'Staves (first lieutenant) and official confuser, PR (currently MIA) was our telepath, Zoid is the bartender, SW is our strategist, Rat is TRM's father, I'm not sure what Mai's official duties are, or MG, Maniac is kinda like Q, the inventor not the being. SHW teaches dance and writes songs. Um...I can't remember, where did I put the crew manifest...I know Mantichorus is my long lost brother.

Mal is our Mistress Most High, hail Mal!

* A spot of light appears in mid-air over the couch in the common room. It expands to form a ring of fire surrounding a dark void. From this hole in reality lunge a multitude of slimy purple tentacles which wave and whip around. Wrapped securely in some of these tentacles is The Real Me. *

Thanks, Teggy. Here will be fine.

* The tentacles unwrap from around The Real Me and he drops a few feet to land on the couch. *

Oooof!

* Above the couch, a strange gurgling sound comes from the hole in reality. Then the tentacles retract into the hole, and it shrinks back down to a point of light, which disappears. *

* The Real Me rights himself on the couch. He is covered by purple slime. In each hand, he grips a large container by its handle. He stands and sets the containers down beside him. The Real Me then takes off his glasses and tries to clean them, a task made difficult by having no scrap of cloth unsoaked by purple goo. With a sigh, he replaces the smudged glasses on his face and adjusts them. Then he frowns, takes them off entirely, and sticks them in his shirt pocket. With the other hand, he slicks back his hair to keep it out of his eyes. *

Ebo Golem! Come here and clean this up, please. Bring a mop, and lots of paper towels.

* The Real Me turns to address the crowd. *

Hello everyone! I have returned from another trek across the multiple realities, where I have obtained some more 7-packs of bottled pepsimilk and several tubs of ice cream from the purple dimension!

ThatWeirdGirl! Uh…

* Without his glasses, The Real Me is forced to squint. *

Wow! That’s some red dress!

Anyway, Inola Teg says hello to you. Uh, at least, I THINK so.

See, I’m not entirely sure. It was difficult for me to understand the thoughts she impressed upon my mind without Ebonezer to act as interpreter. In any case, she was thinking fondly of you, and not, I believe, in the form of a tasty snack.

Oh, and M&Ms are a big hit in the purple dimension, except, of course, that they would like to see some purple ones.

Now, if you will all excuse me, I am in desperate need of a shower and a change of clothes.

* But The Real Me pauses long enough to read the last several posts, from this and the previous thread. *

Ah, Ebonezer in clothes. Or at least in drapery. Or at least… a tutu??? Good! Yes, Ebo, I am familiar with “drama class” and I know what can go on. However, please kindly allow ThatWeirdGirl and myself to pretend otherwise.

Say, ThatWeridGirl, I suspect that the most appropriate tune to use for the Sereni-TREE theme song is the one from Gilligan’s Island. You seem to be an expert on old theme songs. Can you work us into that one? “A three hour tour… A three hour tour…”

MontanaGirl, when our improbable fantasy science fell apart due to too much real physics invading the thread, the dimensional folding that I set up collapsed. That stuck all of your stuff into the corresponding room in the West Wing, the only remaining one. Your stuff is still there, I think, but you can easily move it to the South Wing if you like. Ask the Ebo Golem for help.

Oh, hi Rat! Uh, I mean, “Dad”. Don’t worry, I’m back. Sheesh! You are SO over-protective! I was just off with some friends, hopping across a few dimensions.

Hmmmm…. Say, Rat, sometime you will have to explain to me how you can be my father when I am two cycles of the Rat older than you.

Wow! Cozen performed a gentlemanly act, and the Universe responded by disintegrating him! I suppose that it WAS a rather big strain for it to accommodate. Who would have guessed? Hmmm… Since I’m still here, I suppose that we weren’t a pair of opposite anti-matter twins after all.

Uh, Jake7?

* The Real Me fumbles in the pocket of his jacket, to retrieve a small spherical object, which he displays. *

Jake7, look! I found a spare cue ball. We can finally get on with our game.

* Puzzled, The Real Me stares at the cue ball, which is of a distinctly purple tinge. *

Huh. I guess all this purple

* The Real Me comes from his room, freshly showered and in a new change of clothes. His skin and hair are still purple, but at least his glasses are wiped clean. He goes over to the pool table and racks up the balls. He sets the purple cue ball down on the table. Then he selects a cue. *

Yes, Mai, our seemingly endless series of threads is getting rather confusing. By my count, this is the fourteenth in the direct succession of clubhouse threads.

That is why I have undertaken the task of creating a history and directory of all of the clubhouse / treehouse / sereni-tree threads, with links.

* One eye closed, The Real Me bends over the table, aims at the purple cue ball, and smacks it hard. It slams into the rest, and they all go flying, bouncing this way and that all around the table. Not one goes in. *

Uh, your turn, Jake7!

* Through the door to his room, The Real Me whispers back to Jake7: *

Pssst! Hey, Jake7, get back to the pool table. I have an idea!


* As Jake7 returns to the pool table, a spot of light appears next to her. It expands into a circle of fire surrounding a dark void. This time, though, the circle opens parallel to the floor. The head, shoulders, and torso of The Real Me poke up from this hole in reality, but his waist disappears into the hole. The Real Me’s legs are not visible, and the top half of his body seems to hover in mid-air. He is holding a pool cue. He smiles. *

Hi, Jake7! Now we can get on with our game. I don’t think that Rat can complain since I’m actually standing in my own room right now.

Okay, you asked for it. During calving season, Orion is over the gate to the pasture. When you go out to check cows at night and are coming back through the gate, the truck's headlights are pointed away from you and the barn blocks the light from both the yard light and the corral light. When you're closing the gate in the darkness on a clear night you can see every single star in the sky. Moments that make me love living here.

So as Star was starting to show her age (she was the first cow that I started my herd with in FFA), I decided that when she was gone she would live in the center star on Orion's belt because then she could keep an eye on everything during calving and I'd always know where she was. Of course, I had a few other really good girls that had to stick around somehow too, so as time went on Starlight became the star on the right, Grasshopper became the star on the left, and last year Beauty joined Grasshopper. Star and Starlight got their own stars because they were part of my original herd; Grasshopper and Beauty had to share because there was only one more star left and they were second generation cows.

So now when I walk outside at night the first thing I do is look up and find my girls.

It all makes sense in my head, but I've gotten a few strange looks when I look up and ask, "Where's Star?"

Not so much technically. I'm living about 3 hours from home and Dad sold the cows a few years ago in his inching towards retirement plan. My few girls that are left are running with his cousin's cattle. (They live just down the road from us a ways.) They put the heifers that have calved at our place so we still get to have cattle around, and after my cows calve they come over too so I still get to see them, but it's not the same as when we were taking care of them. And I don't have any really good girls like the aforementioned cows any more.

Dammit, Rat! If you enabled real physics again, I would have been sliced in half!

Besides, the Sereni-TREE would collapse its internal space again, and we might be crushed.

Hmmmm... and I somehow doubt that GreyJedi's new engines work on any currently understood principles.

Right, there, I've put together a new TV setup. Given that we're in space, we should get awesome reception from satellite TV. I've also nipped forward in time and picked up a few HD-DVDs from the future. Anyone want to see season 5 of Lost? Frankly, I don't understand why they didn't meet up with Gilligan et al sooner but there you go.

Unfortunately spoiler regulations prevent me from picking either Serenity or any of its sequels that may or may not exist. We'll just have to wait. Oh, and Episode III isn't any good. What a surprise.

Hmmmm... some way to move the old pool table...

* The Real Me reaches into his sleeve and pulls out... a butterfly. *

There are still a few of these butterfly thrusters that survived TheGreyJedi's non-crash landing.

* The Real Me tosses the butterfly onto the pool table. It starts to hum. He tosses a few more. Soon all of them are hovering over the old pool table, humming. *

Let's try it now.

* With one finger, The Real Me lifts the old pool table and gives it a slight push. It starts floating down the hallway to his room. *

I don't know if this will make you feel better or worse...I had like *twg holds up hand to count like sesame street taught her* four actual boyfriends growing up.

Thank goodness I found Jake..and Static...guys are kinda freaked out by me.

Good luck. Hopefully you'll do better than I did.

Ebo, word of advice. AVOID HIGH SCHOOL BOYS AT ALL COSTS!!!

There are far better wastes of your time. Don't give boys, or men, serious thought until college. And even then you're better off avoiding the ones your age, with the rarest of exceptions. Dating around, having flings, sounds like fun, but you'll find more satisfaction and fulfillment in long-term relationships. So drop ice cream loser like a bad habit. And find more satisfaction in being the unattainable that drives the suitors crazy. Just as much fun, but far less pain for you.

Hey fellow spinster-sisters. Its ok to abstain. Just listen to these very scientific facts handed down to us from the white house by Laura Bush herself.

"Take it from me, girls – there's no good reason to rush into S-E-X. That's why I hope these scientific facts help you choose abstinence, so you need never know the heartbreak of being trapped in a loveless marriage just because you drank too many margaritas one night and gave up your honey pot to a pushy young cokehead from a so-called 'good family.'"

1)Unlike your girly privates, which are internal, boy privates are external. God knew that nobody wanted to see all our lady mess, so He pushed everything up inside you. What in tarnation He was thinking when he came up with that nasty, dangling, squishy flesh on boys beats the heck out of me, but I suspect it was so it would be easier for Him to keep an eye on what they're up to. Because trust me: that grotesque grab bag of horror and disappointment is always up to something, gals.

2)Boy privates are often said to resemble hot dogs, although if you ask me, the ones I've seen always called to mind something like those cute little Austrian cocktail weenies they sell 8 to a can. But I think famed author Lynne Cheney described the male unmentionable best when she recalled recoiling at "an old Frankenstein's monster bratwurst that looked like it had rolled under the couch for a month and got covered in dust bunnies and would make you spit up if you even so much as halfheartedly nibbled the tip of it."

3)Though erotically sensitive just like girl nipples, boy nipples are NOT privates – yet. But my husband and I are working hard to instill a sense of sexualized body shame so acute, that one day soon boys will learn that their nipples are dirty little things that will get them – just like you! – arrested when they strut around topless at Myrtle Beach. America is not some big, old licentious San Tropez and it's time all of you out there realized it!

4)The stuff that comes out of boys every time they use you has as many calories as seven whole pints of Häagen-Dazs. That's why all the girls who do "it" always get so fat and ugly and have that ulcerated skin that screams to everyone in church, "I am an insatiable slut!"

5)While almost all American boys have human-looking privates, most foreign boys have privates like German Shepherds or half-open tubes of Max Factor lipstick.

6)Because boys use the business end of their privates as a pipe for going number one, touching it is pretty much the same as taking a bath in a Mexican's toilet.

7)If you play your cards right, the revolting little wrinkled purse part of boy privates is something a Christian lady can go throughout her entire life without ever seeing. But knowing where it is can come in mighty handy when called upon to give a "not until marriage" warning kick.

8)When a boy's disgusting private goes inside of a girl's shameful unmentionable, there is a serious risk of it breaking off and causing excruciating pain while it travels throughout your body like a giant trichinosis worm.

9)Up until the moment in your wedding when he says "I do," a boy's privates sport a treacherous spine of jagged scales, which may or may not secrete acid and weapons-grade anthrax – for which, apparently, only Ann Coulter has developed the antibodies.

10)God designed a boy's privates as part sword, part battering-ram, to joyously stab and hammer you with on the magical night you begin your life-long tethering to the man who'll liberate you from the drudgery of ever having to make your own decisions – except when to have a headache or give an "I don't like this" bite.

* The Real Me gives MontanaGirl and Ebo a hug, and holds a cushion in place to protect the banging head of ThatWeirdGirl. *

Oh, Ebo. This is going to sound SO patronizing. It isn't meant to be. Really.

You are young, just starting the living of your life. It is a time of being unsure of relationships, and of experimentation (and no, I am not necessarily refering to sex, drama kids aside).

I know a young woman who has been married THREE times, and she's only 23 or so. Unfortunately, she measures her self-worth by who she is with. She must be with SOMEONE, ANYONE, or she feels worthless. And she always picks the kind of guys whose life ambition is to acquire a more bizzare tattoo or piercing than anyone else, and who usually treat her poorly. She is perhaps the sweetest person I know, and has no malice or guile in her. But because she seeks validation outside of herself, I suspect that she will never really be happy.

Now, I know that you will not fall into that trap, because our limited association here has made me believe that you possess quite a bit more self-confidence than many your age.

I guess what I am saying is that it's not about the other person. It's about you.

You are funny, smart, and pretty. You will have no trouble getting who you want. The trick is in realizing who you want. That's rough.

Don't be overly concerned about boyfriends in high school. Try some, if you like. But it has been my experience that "TRUE LOVE" (of the "at first sight" variety) is a crock. Build a friendship, first. Then see if love happens.

Spinster? At 16? When you start ticking off DECADES, like yours truly, then we can talk.

Have a good night, Ebo, and relax.

I've been a member of the club for longer than I'd like to admit. And not even a creepy internet boyfriend to play with I agree, that high school boys should be avoided at all costs! At least we have each other right girls? Maybe there should be a SereniTree Spinster girl club?

Ah, poor WeirdGirl... Sorry, my dear. I will stop, now. It seems like when I try to talk, it makes you sad.

No, no, no!

Then some of you would wander off and I wouldn't get to hang out with you!

Oh, look, Rat! The ship name "SereniTree" fell off the title of this thread. Maybe you can go fix that!

I only meant like a club within the SereniTree. You know like in a spare shuttle or something. We can all gather together with lots of ice cream and talk about how dumb boys act most of the time. (Those boys/men that aren't part of the SereniTree, that is.) I kinda like the guys here. You're all awfully swai. (sp?)

I'm feeling the need to give out sympathy hugs to people. There's one for ebo because, well, boys suck for years and years. I mean, I was aware that other boys sucked but I wasn't aware that I sucked, for completely different reasons, until years later. So here's a hug for you (((((ebo)))))

TWG, a big hug for you as I've been somewhere on your site and am following your meaning ((((thatweirdgirl)))). (Oh, and you look adorable in Mickey Mouse ears)

Montanagirl, for giving good advice and support, plus that lovely cow story (you'll be glad to hear Lucy's doing much better), have another hug ((((montanagirl)))).

Right, there we go, all hugged out. By the way, I have an opening in my schedule for being a creepy internet boyfriend. Special features include use of the words lift, pavement and aluminium; baking of scones, muffins and fudge; standard boarding school levels of repression. Don't delay, apply today. Why do I turn green when I wink, very off-putting?

Oh TRM, it's not you, I promise. You never make me down. In fact you're one of the reasons I look forward to visiting FFF. I think you're a wonderful man I plan on meetin you for lunch one day...Don't forget about that.

I second TRM's vote on the spinster club...I'd rather share my special ice cream with our men. Cause I they're shuai.

SW, will you really say lift, pavement, and aluminium? *twg ponders SW's offer...she has Static, Grey, and GregIV does she have time for a fourth electronical type romance? plus IRL and Jake...* Simon if you make a breakfast of clotted cream, berries and scones and get me some real soda bread, I may be able to make room for you on the couch.


Ebo, as a resident of the second star to the right, I highly recommend a visit. My folks raised me there...I bet twgmom would make a feast for us and twgdad could use some help installing his pole to slide down the outside of the hill house.

* Upon hearing Capn'Ebo poke fun at the first lady(who's husband Ratboy voted for(in a "red battle ground state"(thats right I put him in office, and I'd do it again))), Ratboy stands up, and at the top of his lungs, yells MUTINY!!!! *

note: For this mutiny to work, a few of you will have to go along with it, and for the sake of the plot I hope you will, at least for now!

Rat, please tell me I did not just hear you say the 'M' word...please. You have seen enough sci-fi to know mutineers never end well.

Listen, I think most folks haven't realized you said that, so we can play this off and no one will ever know what happened.

*twg nods her head in understanding, she knows there are a lot of those red-staters here (self included), but a joke is a joke*

It was funny. So, lets all talk about Vienna sausages (yum) and holo-pool.

*twg flips open her communicator* mom, dad, I'm coming home for a visit and I'm bringing a few friends for dinner. And ready the hot tub and jello…I think we made need to get a few people relaxed.

**Raises an eyebrow and smacks a few buttons on his console, securing the cockpit and sealing many sections of the ship from each other(Yes, Jeffries tubes and everything. This isn't gorram "Star Trek"). He locks out any auxilliary control systems and seals and de-pressurizes the launch bay, removing any access to additional craft. He then shuts down all weapons and prepares to seal and jettison any turrets if the need arises. He then flips on the Tree-wide PA system**

Your attention please, your attention please. General Quarters. All personell, we are at general Quarters. All crew please report to your duty stations at once. All stations will be sealed in 45 seconds.

Okay. In true powergaming fashion, I've gained complete control of this vessel. Anyone tries to stir up trouble is gonna inhale so much Nitrous Oxide, they'll be giggling at rolled-up socks for two weeks.

I know it was a joke, it was just an excuse for a mutiny, and as a FireFly fan, you should know that conventional sci-fi don't mean a thing out here in the black!

So, are you with me?

**Static is studying his controls so intently, making sure he's keeping things 'locked down' and safe, that Rat's congratulatory words startle him silly.**

EEEEK!!!!

**Static jumps and inadvertently hits a control that fills a section of corridor with Nitrous Oxide. . .the very section that Rat is standing in. Lots of Nitrous. Lots. And Lots.**

OOps!
