OOC: Firefly Character Claim

well, that's technically NOT accurate. There was ONE spy on board....someone who joined up as their crew, I believe, but was killed shortly afterwards by Jayne, and shoved out the airlock by Mal, I think.
 
I think DR has a point in that Alliance forces haven't done anything undercover with Serenity and also I think that Serenity is too small a fish to warrant that kind of operation. I culd maybe see it if it was somebody from the Academy trying to recover River Tam but even then, all through the FF/S series there has been nothing covert.

well the agent would want some small fish for his job, hes not going after serenity or its crew, hes using them as a cover for his actual mission, which have no idea what would be, i havent though about it that much, im just trying to find a way to get a bad guy in to the story without getting my character left all alone

and in the ep where they first met river and simon, it had an undercover aliance agent
 
jayne didnt kill him, mal did, shot him right inbetween the eyes if i recall correctly
 
I haven't seen the series itself in a while.....but I distinctly remembered the dude getting shot and shoved out the airlock...funny scene *grins*
 
the thread went up, and no one's posted.....I probably could, I suppose, but...
 
Looks like i'll be taking Shepard Book.

Well he's got hidden depths that you can drag up if you get bored of shepherding. There are loads of references in FF/S about his extensive knowledge of the Alliance and the sort of stuff only an ex operative would know. You can take that wherever you like really.

Yes, that was the main reason why I chose him :) I still would have rather done Jayne, but Shepard has many sinster options too.

I posted this morning, but I won't be back till sunday night, going to visit my daughter this weekend.
 
Ugh. I wrote a long post and then my browser died and I lost it. Plus, Lit keeps asking me to log in every 5 bloody minutes, which lost me the post I wrote yesterday. So now I'm 2 lengthy posts down and having a sense of humour failure. :(

In the meantime, here is our Firefly Chinese Glossary. Please stick to the phrases listed here, for the sake of simplicity.

Ni tama de tianxia syuoyou de ren duo gaisi!
Starting with bloody Firefox. Grrr!

Is anyone going to be playing the part of Mal's contacts, or should I just go ahead and come up with our job on my own?
 
sorry for the delay, was out for the weekend. Should be good now - time to cause trouble!

By all means, come up with a job and take it. I meant to be more forthcoming on plot and content but as I haven't managed it the last few days, feel free to write what you like. :rose:
 
By the way, Kimberlee has been very quiet and I have another person interested in playing River. I'll pm Kim and see if she's still on board.
 
Tseranc, would you fancy multitasking and playing both Wash and Jayne? Don't worry if not but as Jayne is a fairly 2D char, it might give you a little more scope and variety. If you put the name of the char you're writing for in the post title, I'm sure we won't get confused.
 
opps. I came up with a job, but if you don't like it i can always scratch it. sorry. just thought about it in the shower. Remembered an episode with Mal in a dress. *smiles*
 
sure, got something better for you though, since I have yet to post (Oh and i will be gone every other weekend - hope this is not a problem, if it is please let me know, especially taking on two roles. This will last through thanksgiving. Other then that I can post at least daily)

So, assuming no issues there, I will post wash from here.
 
Hello, Tseranc's evil twin here. I'll post Jayne. seeing as he's kind of an asshole, I think we'll get along just fine.
 
ooooo...now THAT's something I can post to....it'll take me a while to think of something...and my little brother's here with the desire to play video games v.v
 
I'd say lets just go along with La_Reina's idea. However, would you mind clarifying some things. The way you wrote it sounds like they are transporting a prissoner. Maybe its just me, but that doesn't seem like something they'd be very big on.
