Who in the mother of every whore in hell messed with Serenity?

[so someone's back from the Loki. and is filming one graffiti-covered Firefly spaceship for all to rage about]

And give me back all our shoes!

What happened?

[whosyour_rikku]

Please, you mess with a ship and you're messing with Rikku.

Re: [action]

[worldturnsshiny]

That's what I like hearin'! We'll show 'em not to come 'round here, right?

[action]

[whosyour_rikku]

Right! [Fist bump!]

Hey, do you have any automatic defense system for your ship? For when you're not around, I mean.

Re: [action]

[worldturnsshiny]

Nah, she's a transport ship, we don't got nothin' by way of weapons at all.

[action]

[whosyour_rikku]

I see. [Shaking off some excess suds from her brush, she begins scrubbing at the metal, cringing a little bit at the rough noise of bristle on metal. Just to be safe, Rikku checks the area quickly to make sure nothing was scratched before going at it again.] I wonder if this has happened to any other ships - eh, those without protection, I mean.

Re: [action]

[worldturnsshiny]

[if Kaylee hears the noises, she doesn't comment on them- she can always buff out any scratches later, she owes it to Serenity to dress her up a bit]

I heard a few of them mobile suits got messed with, and those things are like people-shaped tanks.

[action] - LJ's been eating my coments all week, gjldjkdsa. I can't apologize enough.

[whosyour_rikku]

Thor for Thorians crowd, too, I'm guessing? [Shakes her head in disgust.]

[With a brief, suspicious glance behind, her voice drops to a whisper. What she had to say was meant for Kaylee's ears only; she wasn't looking for any unwanted drifters to overhear.] Hey, speaking of them and ships and you being on the Loki and all... you guys must've been able to get some pretty dense information on everything, right? I mean, I've been trying to keep up on the network as best as I could but there's been, like, an overflow of feeds I haven't gotten to totally tap on to yet.

Re: [action] man it's fine I know how it gets!

[worldturnsshiny]

Sounds like it.

[and then she leans in to hear better] We got some, actually- there's a fella traveled all over the place and he heard some about the Sigrun. Didn't even think it existed til we set him straight, but he said things about the Purists and the like- and some other group, wouldn't tell me nothin' about them even, they musta done real awful things.

[action]

[whosyour_rikku]

[Her face scrunches up in thought.] Did he let on that he knew something about the other group he wasn't willing to tell? Or do you think he genuinely didn't know anything?

Re: [action]

[worldturnsshiny]

Yeah, he said they're call the Kitani, and that we're lucky as we only gotta deal with the Purists- he got some way of ident for the Purists, them Kitani don't even got that much. But he didn't want to talk about it, it seemed real bad.

[action]

[whosyour_rikku]

Do the Purists have a tattoo or something? Like a gang sign, I mean.

[Picks up the brush again, scrubbing away. Hm, she forgot she even stopped to begin with.] You think the Kitani had anything to do with what happened to the Sigrun?

Re: [action]

[worldturnsshiny]

Fella kept doin'- [and she taps the left side of her chest] It's some way of recognizin' them.

Nah, I figure the captain woulda warned us about them if they had, right? This guy seemed real displeased to even mention them.

[action]

[whosyour_rikku]

[Watches you and nods.]

You mean the Sigrun captain? Well, I'd hope so. But I know some other refugees were feeling real uneasy about the legitimacy of that video. You know, thinking maybe he was in a compromising position. [Shrugs. Even though Rikku saved the captain's message to her private folder, she hadn't watched it in some time.]

Re: [action]

[worldturnsshiny]

Huh. You mean they were thinkin' like a code? Or like he was bein' watched? [she hadn't thought that at all, but then again she had been pretty busy being impressed by what a good captain he was...]

I guess I can see it, but everyone was leavin' in the background, weren't they? Seems like an awful lotta trouble to go through to fake it.

[action]

[whosyour_rikku]

Mmhm. Watched and scripted.

People who want soemthing bad enough'll do whatever they need to. But y'know, I hadn't thought of that. It's sick to think about but maybe they were being "escorted" out. [Yes, actual air quotes used.] If you know what I mean.
