So…a new episode, and a new piece of “crap art” from Dan. Just thought we’d take a minute to give everyone an update.

As is our ad hoc M. O., the plan for ep. 2 is to let your character plots run as long as there’s momentum across the board. While “Gateway” offered you the chance to feel your char's out aboard ship, “Catch of the Day” affords them the same opportunity in a planetside setting.

Wolf and I have an underlying plot in mind, but aside from supplying a general direction, the intent is to emphasize your character stories. With that in mind, let us know if we can help your personal plots in any way!

Cal and Abby are both available for JP/collabs, though I think the deckhand is starting this ep. under anesthesia.

Mechanic: We reached out to Murph’s writer. If she doesn’t join the boat, we’ll put the “help wanted” sign out. There are a couple other folk interested in joining the crew. We’ll keep you posted.

There’s lots to do in our fishing town, and also plenty of work aboard the boat. We hope you have a good time on New Melbourne!

On a final note, I wanted to thank each of you for your creativity and good will in the ep.1 finale. Part experiment, part rust removal, the experience was thrilling and very enlightening. You guys came through like champs. Seeing the entire cast engaged in Scene 3 was simply beyond our expectations.
In short, you guys made our week!

Time for me to shut up. We’ll hear from Abby soon’s the doc allows visitin’ hours. The Cap’n? Dunno. Cap’n does what cap’ns do.

Write when it’s fun.

Dan

It was.

Unfortunately, Abby's in the medbay right now, under Alana's scalpel to have a bullet removed.

She'n Hook'll have to reschedule their target practice.

@Gunther We should definitely get the Cap and Hook out for some fishing. I'm working on a JP with Penelope right now, but I'll ping you when I've got some time freed up!

Hi HMD,

Wolf and I are in the throes of deciding whether or not to switch on the "Vacancy" sign. Best two out of three in the arm wrestling, followed by points scored in the cage match.

Watch this space.

@Winters, @MK Blitzen and @Yule, I would like to offer a suggestion. First, I appreciate your placement of the avatars for your three characters at the intro of each post. They do help to place a face with a voice. My suggestion is whomever makes the post, lead with their character's avatar, just to change things up a bit. When the order is consistent, it appears at first glance, the post is from the same individual regardless of the name/profile pic at the left.

I also like the way you guys start off your posts! I changed Pen's thumbnail to a more cleaner one like you guys' and mimicked your format. Isn't there some quote about copying being flattering or complimenting of something? xD Anyway, you guys do a great job~ I love their little avatars. It took me way too long to make my own. xD

@Aalakrys. Completely agreed. Those are gorgeous icons. Being a graphical idiot, I thought my best course was to make mine look like something my char would bodge together, lol.

I was in no way criticizing their avatars. I do agree, they look nice.

@Gunther I'm not sure anyone said you did? xD

It may take me a minute to read all nine parts, but I will catch up later today! I posted a tiny Penelope post. Maybe do her beach post after Hook and Cal go finishing. ^^

I do like a good story. If it takes nine posts to tell it, more's the better.

I plan to read the whole thing during lunch today. I did read Pen's precursor to her beach story. You've set the scene with the character's mindset, appearance, and her wits. Looking forward to the next.

So at this point we're aware of the following:

Cal and Hook are fishing (evening)
Pen is headed for the beach (late PM/evening)
Is anything else going on the first evening?

I do have a post in mind that might close out the night. Planning to start the next day with Abby's 'morning after,' which will likely end with an open tag for anyone in the galley.

There's also a JP in the offing between the Skyes and the Cap'n, and we may see a new character or two.

If you've got further adventures planned for New Melbourne, let us know. Don't think anybody's too excited about taking on a boatload of fish, so procrastination is the word of the day!

Cheers,

Your humble hosts/GM's/mods/dudes who come up with stuff

I'm on part 4 while I guard the door from temperatures. xD Might even finish reading it with how slow we apparently are this hour. No wonder this trip fits in so well on a Firefly... xD it's a fun read, thank you guys!

Thank you Pen! Your precursor was great, I love her “don’t fence me in” attitude (extended to sea creatures! Spongebob approved!)

Mods - we have one more in the chamber for the first night, one ready to go for the evening, then the Skye’s have to re-embark. I may have made that word up. Cal and Hook’s gone fishin’, Pen’s at the beach, Abby is laid up, that leaves Rex the first mate. Or, we’re also happy to have them stay at the Super 8, they’ll leave the light on for us.

Let us know what works best so we can plan for it!

Well, you could look Abby up for 3 reasons:

1. Doc said she could go, so she's keen to pick a room and sleep in her own bunk.

2. She did make a promise...circumstances notwithstanding.

3. She's slow moving and slightly drugged...an easy target.

I'm about this evening, keeping client promises and trying to catch up on the Skyes' adventure. Let me know if she can help get you resettled.

Muhammed Ali was arrogant. But he had fun with that attitude. The Gif in my signature is of him doing what he referred to as Dope-a-Rope. He avoided 21 punches by George Foreman in just a few seconds. It was a classic Ali move. Then he taunted him by shaking his hips at the end.

And that reminds me, @Gunther dropped a good thumbnail in the last Hook/Abby post.
