I figured I'd jump on the train before I get left behind. 😁

...thirty-nine thousand tons of taconite...

Are we taking on a load of Taconite?

This reminds me of this...

Happy Wednesday, all!

I've been accused of not being an adept reader of gif. This, I categorically deny. I insist that even though the dark magic involved in posting them to chats and forums eludes me to this day, I am not so disconnected as to miss the gist of gif's.

(I could mutter something under my breath about Wolf's predilection for the worst dad jokes ever, but I digress.)

If I read correctly, the Skyes are changing plans and not writing out a beach party JP for the first night in NM. Unless anyone else has something planned for the first night, we'll exercise our godlike powers and pull the Day 2 sun up over the horizon. Speak now, or forever change your premise.

At this moment, here's what we're aware is happening Day 2:

Cap'n's having coffee with Abby.
The Skyes are planning to come meet w/ the Cap'n.
Cap'n's gonna have a chat with Sam.
Abby'll ride the lawnchair...but carefully.

And way across the ocean, some guy named Yuri is getting into trouble.

You got plans? Looking to JP/collab, or just write solo? Let us know what suits your fancy and we'll help with environments, NPC's or what you might need to tell your stories. Or, if you got nothin' and want us to hurry up and get outta dodge, let us know.

We are planning a time skip to eat up the black between New Melbourne and Greenleaf. But that's always subject to change if you've got a story to tell.

Write When It's Fun.

Heeey~ the last few days have been a bit busy but I have my sea legs now. Pen will need to visit Abby to deliver the promised treasure, and then speak with the captain after discovering their next destination. So, I request JPs for day 2 & 3 from you and Wolf a'piece. ;D

Abby's more than happy to JP with Pen. That goes for the rest of you, too. She's kinda easy to chase down just about now.

No worries, we’ve decided to add time and day stamps to our posts to help sort out the wonky time. Zoom zoom!

That's fine. Just a reminder that we go by the cues we're given to ensure that your posts fall correctly. We've already changed entire episode plans to accommodate, and as long as you all are into the writing, we'll do it again in a heartbeat. All we ask is that you keep us up to date, either here in OOC or in the group chat.

Sorry for the confusion, we figured the date/time stamp was an easy fix.

Currently, we have a JP up with @Wanderingwolf for Day 2 so the Skyes can speak to the Cap'n, as soon as he's free! (JP's!!!)

If Rex wants a JP - we'll gladly start one with them (Multi-taskers that we are) and let you know. We have ideas!

Happy Saturday, you creative demigods!

Here's what's on tap:

Day 2 Morning/mid day:

The Skyes are meetin' with the Cap'n.
The Cap'n's gonna have a sit down with Sam.
Abby's gonna get a customer.
Way up East, Yuri's gonna get an ass chewin'.

Day 2 Afternoon/evening:

Heard tell the Cap'n and the Doc are in cahoots.
Abby's finally goin' sock shoppin'...and maybe a side trip.
Pen says she might be headed a little further out in her explorations.
Way up East, Yuri's gonna be dealin' with "pretty pretty lights an' it'll play Merry Hob with your radars."

So that's what we know's happenin'. Got anything else on the burner? Send us a wave. Cap'n and the deckhand are glad to help support, and we've been known to create an NPC or two get a scene off the ground.

A word about our timeline:

If you kept up with all that "king tuna" season talk, you recall that China Doll was scheduled to touch down 2 days before the fishing season would begin. Now, we know you've all seen "The Deadliest Catch" and "The Perfect Storm" enough to know that a big fishing boat can be gone for days or weeks at a time until they fill their holds. As we're booked to pick up a couple tons of fresh tuna, we could be "waiting for our ship to come in" for a good while if we were making a legal buy.

But this is "Firefly." And we are "naughty folk, slipping about."

Turns out our fishing boat left early, from another port. Been playin' the far end of the fishing grounds ahead of season to get us our order early. We'll be flyin' out to meet 'em and make the buy just after the season starts...to make that part all legal on paper. Since we're good at hoverin', we'll airlift the tuna off their deck and hightail it to the black while they get to fishin' proper.

So, Pen and Abbs were just talkin' during Day 2 morning.
Day 3 afternoon (3:00PM local time) starts the official fishing season. China Doll will be lifting off about then.

That's the plan. But remember, plans can always change. You get a good story running in Pensacola and you need more time, Wolf and I can dream up all sorts of reasons to delay launch.

Write when it's fun.

The JP with Wolf sparked a new plot the Skye's will be running, It theoretically should be done by night 2 in-game time!

Hey hi Mods! Skye's have struck a deal with the dashing Cap'n Cal (thank you for the JP Wolf! Blast as always!) and they need to sign some paperwork with Abby. Please let us know if this is something you're interested in JPing or if you'd rather handwave Sail, as we're roll with the tide sorts, but we do love to JP. We have a doc started, nothing concrete planned except seeing where Isaac got off to.

On our docket is:

-The JP with Abby if you're up for it (unless she's heading out)
-Finding Lolo (We have a post amongst ourselves in the works)

If you want to JP, we'd love to kick it, we're usually on hangouts! Let us know when works for you.

I really got a kick out of the shuttle rental! Well done, guys.

Abby is about and can "sit" for a JP. Tomorrow evening work for y'all?

I have roughly 14,000 words to get through to catch up to everyone. Then I can safely state my intentions for Hook. If I don't catch up with the story, Hook is planning the Day 2 evening meal to consist of the following:


The Best Baked Salmon




Sides:
    Garlic Roasted Potatoes
    Rice Pilaf
    Oven Roasted Asparagus /w Garlic and Lemon
    Chopped Carrots

Hey folks,

In case you missed the group chat today, we're thinking that Hook's Day 2 supper is a great chance for us all to live chat RP everyone hanging out together at the Galley table. Right now, we're looking at SUNDAY, 9/19 @ 5PM EASTERN TIME.

Please let us know if the time works, or feel free to suggest one that does. We'll save a plate for you.

Happy Sunday from the cargo deck!

Lots of big doin's on the China Doll.

First up, today's the day! Hook's doin' some serious cookin' and yer all invited! We thought the chance to get y'all sittin' around tha galley table would be a fun Chat RP, so we're all hittin' Discord TODAY at 5PM EASTERN TIME. Bring yer appetite, and a story or two could be right nice.

Sounds like after dinner, lotsa folk have plans.
Think I heard that both shuttles are goin' fer joy rides (excuse me, 'operational test flights'.) Skyes takin' the one they jest rented, an' Pen's got t'other.
Cap'n and the Doc got somethin' goin' on in town.
Abby's on a super secret mission. Wishin' she had a hat an' a trench coat.
Way up East, Yuri's all busy fixin' stuff what broke.

What about you? You got somethin' in mind fer our last night in town? Sing out an' we'll leave tha lights on.

Got a slight change 'o' plans. Wolf had an idea. Wolf had a terrible, wonderful idea. Instead 'o' wrappin' the episode when we break atmo an' time skippin' to arrival at Greenleaf, we're gonna RP our time in the black. Ain't a long haul...nearabouts 16 hours. Might also give us another shot at some chat RP...if y'all are feelin' it.

And that's what we know! Remember, we are all about character subplots and development. If you've got a story to tell on New Melbourne and need some extra time, let us know and we'll put the brakes on. Likewise for the black, or Greenleaf.

As Yuri's boss just said, "Danny-boy's just a bunch of hot air." So, it's time for me to shut up. See y'all today at 5PM!

WWIF,

sail
