Heero is sitting on a barstool, quietly observing the rest of the bar. Not writing notes, not writing in a laptop... just observing. If one were to observe him right back, they could easily notice a few bruises in various places on his arms; as he is wearing a tank top, he has made no effort to hide them.

Hmm.

Rubbing his head against Faith's Scotch, Mal goes to the Bar. Very quietly.

"Bar, may I please have some of...whatever Faith gave me?"

A longer pause than is usually typical for Bar, then two vials appear on the table. Two.

Mal mutters a thank-you and makes for the door.

It's his ship. He's not going to give it up for anyone or anything.

Even so...he puts his vials in his pocket alongside the key to Faith's apartment as he steps through the door onto Serenity.

The young man standing at the bar had a rather disgruntled expression. before him was a small lift with a box made of wooden slats on, that said "ammunition." The trouble was that, though he had what he'd asked for, he now had no way to go about arming himself. He would have to ask for trustworthy assistance.

The trouble was, he had no way to gauge who was trustworthy, except for those he'd already met. Thus he frowned as he considered the box, and the fact that his tab had risen considerably.

Alain probably spends too much time in Milliways sitting by the fire brooding.

On the other hand, Milliways is really conducive to this.

He's smoking. He's ostensibly reading The Wizard of Oz, too, but mostly the book lies open and ignored on his lap.

Adric had ice cream once again, difficult to say if he'd had anything healthy in between, but apparently it didn't matter much. He liked ice cream after all.

This time it was a caramel and brownie sundae, he was also scribbling lines between the dots on his star maps, trying to line any of them up between the maps. He didn't seem to be having much luck with the way his brow was furrowed, gnawing on his spoon more than his ice cream. He could probably do with an interruption.

(have a bit of time left still, vacation and needing sleep and all. Slowtime is love however. Totally)

There was some confusion last night on Number Ten Ox's part as to exactly what was going on with the very strange wineshop where One-Eyed Wong's ought to have been, but it was nothing compared to his confusion when he walked out of the wineshop and found no time had passed at all.

And it is even worse now, because he could have sworn this was the way to the outhouse...

Antigone thinks she could eat something.

She picks her way downstairs in the dim light of early morning, feet bare (for her shoes aren't in any condition to be worn). She and her dress are clean, but the dress dried rumpled and her hair still has its tangles.

After ordering toast and black coffee (and thinking of Sonia-- it feels like a dream, but she is still here, so it can't be), Antigone curls up in an armchair and glances around. She's not sure what's going to happen next, but there must be something. Otherwise the play would be over, and the curtain would drop.

In a fit of fancy, Charles decided that he would rather like to appear a bit as he used to -- not in the furry and claws way, but rather, his manner of dress. Sooooo, there's a rather finely dressed Charles in the bar this morning, munching contentedly on some strawberry crepes. He has to eat rather carefully, because there's a danger of the ruffles on his sleeves getting caught in the sauce, and that is just Not Done.

He'll probably say hi to you if you say it first (well, knowing Charles, he'd say "Hello," or something much more formal), and he might even share, if you ask nice enough.

There's a haunting tune being played, from somewhere in the vicinity of the armchairs.

Gone away, gone ahead,
Echos roll unanswered.
Empty, open, dusty, dead.
Why have all the Weyrfolk fled?

Where have dragons gone together
Leaving weyrs to wind and weather,
Setting herdbeasts free of tether;
Gone, our safeguards, gone, but whither?

Have they flown to some new weyr
Where cruel Threads some others fear?
Are they worlds away from here?
Why, oh why the empty weyr?


Com ask the harper for answers.

Helen comes down the stairs, large book in hand. With her are Nala and Elena, both occupied with chewtowys. After getting herself tea and breakfast, and breakfast for the puppy and kitten, Helen settles in a booth with the book. Every once in a while, she gestures with her hands, perhaps in conjunction with what she is reading. She wouldn't mind some friendly conversation, however. Come say hi!

[Pre-Milliways: Thoughts about life, death, and love]

I blink and look around, wondering why the only flowershop in town that stays open as late as I need it to has suddenly turned into a bar. Now, don't get me wrong, I don't have anything against bars in general, but considering that a shot of booze does about the same thing to me as a shot of lead, they're no longer all that useful to me. At least when I'm alone, anyway.

From what I could see though, it was a pretty standard saloon, except for the big window with the--

"Hot damn..."



Just because I'm pretty indestructable doesn't mean I feel like going through a world of pain. Thus, expecting the worst, I dive under a table and find myself blinking again when the big boom doesn't blast through this place like Capone on a bender.

I pop my head up, take a look around, and wonder why I'm the only mug hiding like a rabbit.

"Hey! What gives?"

Here's Barry. And for the first time in the year he's been here, he has a newspaper. Or at least part of one. The Bar has given Barry the sports section from today's New York Times. And so Barry is reading about the baseball playoffs, and the return of the NHL. It's still a bit odd to not see anything about teams from Metropolis, Gotham and so on, but the Cardinals are in the playoffs, and that will do for now.

Come say hi. Sports conversation is strictly optional.

Out at the Milliways gardens is a sight seldom seen.

A large, orange-and-grey boulder is merrily ripping its way though the soil of one of the garden beds. Of course, since no acid is being employed and the soil isn't actually being consumed, this particular digging process is taking a bit longer than you'd expect with a Horta merrily digging away.

But then, the idea is to turn over and mix the soil, not eat a tunnel through it.

Come see how Naraht is doing.

When she was falling, she still saw the awful things that left her no option but to throw herself from the tower. Her scream named them all, in one gruesome word better left untranslated. She did not remember landing, though she did remember the feeling of being split--

She had been expecting many things, and waking was not always one of them. Purgatory if she was lucky, and surely, for all that she had done and caused, worse lay in store than that. But when she found she could lift her head from the ground, all her preconceptions dissolved in the face of what lay before her eyes.

The place that is not the Inferno is… pleasing. She picks herself up and pushes back her hair. After a good deal of staring, understanding hits her. “What a murky hell indeed!”

And Lady Macbeth begins to laugh.

The Door shakes in its frame from a muffled explosion behind it. When it opens, it does so almost sheepishly, as if it believed it could have timed this entrance just a little better.

Grey-black smoke billows into Milliways and from the murk emerges a coughing and sublimely irked being with scraggly hair and a wine-colored tunic that has acquired quite a few more stains since her last visit. The Door quickly closes behind her and the smoke soon clears enough that Aughra can see her surroundings.

"Milliways?" she asks...herself or the room at large? Hard to tell. "Hmmmph! Good a place as any."

Ex-Peacekeeper inna bar. Knitting and shooting death glares at anyone who dares to mock her for it. She's giving it up as soon as she proves she can do it.

Apart from that, it's obvious she's in a good mood. She's humming, Aeryn should never be so cheery, but she is. She also manages to smile benevolently at people who pass by, unless they inwardly scoff at her knitting. She can tell when you are, it's one of her many talents.

If you talk to her, she'll probably remind you the universe is a wonderful place, maybe even buy you a three course meal.

Well, thinks Susanna Kaysen as she walks down the hallway back to the room she shares with Georgina, it's not that bad.

I'll manage, she thinks.

... When she opens the door to what should be her room, it changes entirely. That intricate thought process that Susanna had used to determine the fact that she wasn't any madder than any other borderline, that she wasn't having hallucinations at least, evaporates.

Staring, Susanna takes a cautious step into Milliways, looking about her.

The Triplets are singing a merry song of Halloween Trickery.

Wise jack-o-lanterns who have seen
The haunting horrors of Halloween,
Force smiles, while peering through scared eyes
To look on beasts that terrorize.
They see the gore, they see the fright
That fills each street on this dark night.
The shadows move, then screams and sighs,
Vile vampires bring blood curdling cries.
While witches brew with monkey brains,
Huge spiders fight for scarce remains.
Ghosts and goblins start the dance
That puts wierd zombies in a trance.
They dance the famous Monster Mash,
All acting tough and talking trash.
Then mold into a crowd so mean,
It just gets worse each Halloween.
So, trick or treaters, listen well,
This warning jack-o-lanterns tell:
"If THEY come, just run home quick!
With these wild guys it's Trick or Trick

He runs in, face savage as his sword swings downward in a deadly arc...at what turns out to be no one. He startles for a moment before turning this way and that, blinking at the utter lack of enemy forces surrounding him as they had a moment before. After a moment, he slides the sword into it's scabbard and examining the place he seems to have ended up.

The examination ends, however, as he catches sight of his sister. In the arms of a man. In the arms of that man.

He would never growl, for such things were beneath him and his peers, but he does snarl and stalk over.

He takes a deep breath, pushes his spectacles up his nose, takes a better grip on the two books he's carrying, and starts down again.

He settles in table in a corner. Not a dark, shadowy corner, just a corner. He's not fond of being in the middle of things.

Well, for a minute anyways. He raises his head, a smile growing on his face as he watches the door. Yup, thats his spell going off all right. Which means Mel is going to be walking through the door.... now.

Okay, it's just slow, she's trying it again. So, now.

He stands up, glaring at the door.

"Open. Mother... Open. She's using the spell, she wants back, so open."

His hands on his hips, his body is the definition of tense, his eyes glowing blue behind the sunglasses. There is magic in the air around him, a terse, throbbing magic as he attempts to use the power he's least trained in.

"As I am Opener, you shall Open for her...."

And then he can feel the badge moving away from the door. And he slumps.

To my dear hatchmate, may you always know you are loved and welcomed, Hank

They've got a dinner date tonight. A dinner date with Elaine.

Beth doesn't have a lot of female friends here, and really, she's pretty sure no one can blame her for that. She can count the number of women here that she's talked to on the fingers of one hand.

(She's pretty sure no one can blame her for not being able to get enough of the guy, too.)

But she's always liked Elaine a lot. And now Ryan is gone and nothing much Beth can do to help Elaine.

So maybe having dinner all together will be a really good thing.

It's been a while since these two have been seen together in the bar. Over a month in fact. But nevertheless, they're back together now - and if the sight in the booth is anything to go by, they're pretty damn happy about it.

Random and Ramon, in a booth, sharing a cigarette lazily. Both outwardly relaxed and tending to smile at each other rather a lot. Perhaps it has something to do with how they spent the morning - or maybe it's just relief that the past four weeks are behind them.

Come say hi. They're in good moods and not at all liable to injure anyone.

[OOC: OOM warnings for...lol, schmoop and smut, what else? Adult situations are a given with these two...but there's a *coughbondagecough* warning on this one too. Also - either of them are available to tag, seperately or together.]

Illyria is in the bar, in a booth, with a bunch of tiny metal rings spread out in front of her.

At the suggestion of Cass the book on medieval weaponry she read a while back, she's linking the rings together to make things out of chainmail. She's not really so interested in it as armor, as her own serves her quite well, but the patterns made by the interlocking rings intrigue her, and the monotony of the action is oddly soothing. Come ask her what she's doing. She may even take enough notice of your existence to answer.

It's a well-loved book of verse that sits before Anne tonight, with pages already well-thumbed and a soft leather binding. Her lips move with the words, but her gray-green eyes are lost in dreams, while she wanders the paths unknown through woods and dale, over brooks, past meadows sweet with hay.

The Anne-girl is remembering her first friends tonight. It would not surprise her to see Katie pop her shy little face up against the nearby window, not in the least.

And because her mun is insane and feels like playing both halves of the persona at once, though in different places, Fred is out by the lake.

For once she's got her nose out of a book, and is stargazing. She's free of angst and woe, a state which is about to change within a few days. Meet her now, continue old conversations, or just bother her because she looks friendly. She is, and only the tiniest bit crazy, too.

Zedd is sitting by the fire with a book. He seems to have his attention completely on the book, but somehow he also seems to be watching the room at the same time. Feel free to bother, he wouldn't mind the distraction.

Zabuza is in the woods, somewhere. He seems to be well hidden, and if someone happened to walk by he may say something. Of course he also may not.

[ooc: Please ping me on aim First Wizard zor if you want to tag him. He doesn't get along with some types of characters and it would be best for all to avoid such a confrontation.]

LIfe is almost back to normal for Rachel, normal defined as daily missions, almost no free time, and only general instead of pointed suspicion and derision...so she's almost happy. Interesing how one can be content with deplorable situations when the past week was hellishly worse.

So, now, Milliways finds Rachel stretched out in front of the hearth, stretching out the muscles strains resulting from not working for over a week. See her? Waterfall of hair licking over her shoulder to the floor as she bends her nose to her knee, deep breathes, slow, controlled, shiting to the other knee, shifting to splits and a few winces.

It's good to be working again.

"Chotto...chotto matte! Please....please slow down, Sesshoumaru-sama!" Squawks a sudden, frantic voice from somewhere at about knee-level of most bar patrons. "Your loyal...servant's....legs....are far inferior! Wait for me!"

A short, green creature with bulging yellow eyes and a beaklike mouth comes dashing into the room at full speed, the two-headed staff slung over its shoulder bouncing along with the panicked little demon. He has clearly been running for some time, panting heavily as he trips over a bar-patron's ill-placed foot. The newcomer takes a face first dive, arms flailing, then skids a few feet along the floor before coming to a full halt. The staff clunks heavily on the creature's head not a second later, causing a sizeable swelling to rise as the hapless imp heaves a pained groan. Yes, that'll hurt. Flopping over his side, still wheezing, he blinks groggily up at the myriad of eccentric lighting.

"Arrck, all fortune has abandoned me today." Jaken manages croakily.

Mal walks in the bar with his normal outfit - duster, boots, suspenders. His brown holster.

Thumbing the key and vial in his pocket and hoisting a bag - wouldn't be polite to stay over and not have a change of clothes in the morning. Don't want to be offensive to anyone.

Mal walks slowly from Door to the main staircase leading up to Faith's suite. He's hoping very much that no one notices how tired he must look.

[ooc: feel free to notice, but no threading. Mal is fleeing upstairs for druggedup sleep yay. :)]

Todd was in the garden working as usual earlier today, though he was still thinking of his short time yesterday as a lion. It was such a strange but interesting experience. As it is, he's now in the bar, with a late tea, and busy scribbling in his notebook again. He's sitting back in his usual quiet booth off the side.

He's hard at work, but won't object to a distraction.
