Serenity's got about another 32 hours before they hit Ezra.

The waiting before a job is usually the worst part, and today Mal is feeling it more so than others. He's checking in with the bar when he receives an eyepatch and a watergun the likes of which he hasn't seen since that ridiculous Assassin game in April.

There's a smirk when he shoves the eyepatch into his pocket, hopping behind the bar and scrawling out a sign before asking Bar for a 3' by 5' cloth.



Mal walks out the door to the lake, damn near whistling.

[ooc: I'm on gchat for any coordinating that might want to happen. Uh. It's not a huge boat, but it'll do. I'll put up an organizing post somewhere if this gets people involved.

ETA: This thread is for any arrivals if you are participating in shenanigans.

ETA AGAIN: OOC COMMUNICATIONS.


And it continues: The Battle Thread. Onlookers welcome.

And food for the spectators. And the winner, obviously.]

"... At least all of you landed on something soft." Wellard breathes a sigh of relief, finally making it down to the deck.

And he does mean that in the best possible way, of course!

Really.

"Well, that's it for this outfit." Inara yelps as she gets a Jamie elbow in her side and examines the chunk of her skirt that is currently under Ed and no longer part of the whole.

Well, since it's already ruined...

One last wave of water sloshes down from above, aimed at Inara and Wellard.

"Just a precaution," Elizabeth explains. "In case anyone was unconscious."

Eyedart.

"Now, who do we make walk the plank?"

"I don't even know whose side I'm on!" Retribution can't be taken if no one knows who should be taking it, right?

"I'm still on their side," Jamie points out, and steps hastily backwards to stand between the Captains Turner.

. . . then he grabs Enzo's arm and yanks him over there too.

Now you know, Enzo!

"Arrr!" says Ed, who now has a nice cluster of targets to shoot at. The squirt guns come out blazing, as it were.

Elizabeth gets a very stern, trying-not-to-grin, look.

After Wellard wipes the water from his eyes.

"I can't recall anyone saying that we did surrender." He glances at Mal and Inara, raising an eyebrow.

Inara has no pride, especially when she's been thoroughly soaked twice. She ducks behind Mal, sending a flick of water towards Elizabeth as she goes.

It's a gesture, okay?

Enzo twitches and emits a muffled yelp and an audible crackling noise as some water catches him in the mouth before he can clamp his lips shut.

He knew the danger when he went in...

Jamie eyes the land.

. . . there's a lot of food there. And if there's one thing Jamie has experience with, it's stealing food.

He raises his hand up high, and volunteers, "If you ask me, I'm all in favor of uniting in a common cause."

Standing firm, the Captains Turner look at each other, the beach and back at Mal.

"Truce," Elizabeth announces, head held high. The fact that she's dripping wet doesn't seem to bother her any.
a1enzo: (wicked)

Enzo grins broadly; he's all for it, and he can't even eat the stuff.

"Yaaay, food!" says Ed by way of agreement.

Wellard has no arguments with this plan! With a quiet chuckle, he tucks the water pistols into his belt.

"It's bad luck continuin' a battle when there's grub waiting." Well, maybe not, but it should be.
