Open Action: Fleet Wide

[killedwithlove]

Who: Cole and anyone who isn't fast enough to get away
Broadcast: n/a
Action: Any ship, though he won't venture onto the Three Twins or Tourist still. He will park next to them, now!
When: First half of the month?


[Cole does this thing. He does this thing where he goes everywhere and sticks his large nose into everything and meets people. He hasn't done it for a while, so clearly, it's time again.

The Pathstone comes in next to a ship, docks and then they spend a while there. There's no pattern to which ship it is. But he'll bring them around to your ship eventually.]

Yes... I shudder to think what would have happened if she'd been alone. But as long as she had me, and I had her... [He swallowed.] And there is no use dwelling on the what-ifs. There is plenty to consider for the present.

[killedwithlove]

And she will be there, at the end of this, for you.

Then that will be my reward for being put through this. [River... and Kaylee, Simon suddenly realized, the image of a pretty girl in worn mechanic's coveralls and a smile like the sun coming out popping into his head.] For playing the game and winning it... whatever conditions there are for doing so.

[killedwithlove]

Yes. You will survive to return to them.

[Silence follows.

Cole is already gone again. His job was done.]
