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.]

"not that I've met, though we do have an actual dinosaur. A pterodactyl. We call her Myfanwy."

"Is it a jerk? I remember pterodactyls being jerks."

"No, she's quite nice. You know, for a non-verbal reptile. She like chocolate and swing music, though I blame the swing on Jack."

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[mnt_mike]

This doesn't seem to convince Mike of the dinosaur's niceness.

"Everyone likes chocolate and swing music."

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[likesthecoat]

"Well, she's the only pterodactyl I've ever met so it seems unusual to me."

"We ran into a whole nest of them that time we were stuck in the Jurassic period.

Or was it the Mesozoic?"

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[likesthecoat]

"Cretaceous," Ianto says.

He does know everything, after all.

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[mnt_mike]

"That's it! That's when we were. HUGE fish, sadly no chips."

Woe!

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[likesthecoat]

"That's terrible. Chips are the best part about fish and chips." He considers. "That and the fried Mars bars."

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[mnt_mike]

"The pre-stone ages are kind of lacking in deep fry technology. Though, we tired it once with this lava flow..."

The grimace alone speaks volumes.

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[likesthecoat]

Ianto winces in sympathy. "That's not so much deep-fried as it is ultimate barbecue."

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[mnt_mike]

"Original Cajun style."

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[likesthecoat]

"Without even the pepper." Ianto shakes his head and tsks.

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[mnt_mike]

Mike snickers.

"And people wonder why we don't let Raph anywhere near a kitchen. He was the original bad cook."

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[likesthecoat]

"Poor Raph, too," Ianto says. "I could go for some blackened fish." He sips his smoothie.

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[mnt_mike]

"I think that might be the one thing I don't have out here. How do you feel about steamed shellfish?"

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[likesthecoat]

"I feel it is both nutritious and delicious."

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[mnt_mike]

Mike points to the unobtrusive portion of the beach that is sputtering and steaming.

"They might be done. Should we crack it open?"

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[likesthecoat]

"Yes," Ianto says and gets to his feet. "What have you got?"

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[mnt_mike]

"Lobster, crab, and Quahogs. They're wrapped in seaweed and then encased in a salt crust."

He's very proud.

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[likesthecoat]

Ianto smiles at him. "That sounds so good it'd be almost a shame to eat them."

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[mnt_mike]

Mike looks over the rims of his Donald Duck sunglasses.

"But if we didn't eat them, then they've died in vain."

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[likesthecoat]

"I said almost," Ianto says and ambles over to the sputtering mound of shellfish.

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[mnt_mike]

Mike rolls to his feet and heads to where the plates and flatware are being stored.

"Good man. I've got extra lemons and limes over here, for all your garnishing needs. Oh and plates. But uh...I'm going to need a promise from you before you get one."

Re: TO THE VICTOR GOES THE OMNOMNOMS!

[likesthecoat]

"Okay," Ianto says slowly.
