Shore Leave!

[cityship]

Suddenly, the usual relative peace of the ship is disrupted by a rather loud announcement from Stacy.

||Attention, Attention. All personnel please report to the Observation Deck. Attention, Attention. All personnel please report to the Observation Deck. Attention, Attention, all personnel...||

It's entirely likely that she won't stop repeating the announcement until, well, everyone reports to Obs Deck. The mouth in the huge statue on the wall opens, revealing a screen. On it, the dossier for the mission flickers into display, understandable to every person there. Smaller copies of the dossier appear in holographic form in front of everyone.

The planet's stats, right next to a rotating picture of it, blue with thousands of small islands just barely visible, are as follows:

Planet Designation: Zokez II
Status: Terrestrial, H-class.
Non-sentient life: Extensive flora and fauna.
Semi-Sentient Life: Yes.

"Certainly my own first goal," Kaylee agrees. "Food and clothes, and see if I can't pick up a few parts for Serenity...definitely hittin' the beach up later, though."

"I might end up shopping the entire time." Wyn admits sheepishly. "I've got the list of parts for Rogue Squadron, and then I have another list of things I need for myself.

"I'd love to go to the beach if I have time, though. I think it's been forever since I've seen real sunshine."

Oh yeah, she's grinning now, Wyn. "Well, that's easily fixed. If you want, I'll help you out with the shoppin', and that'll cut at least some of the time down. More time for the beach that way."

"If you want to help out, sure! I think there'll be some crossover between what I need for the squadron and what you'd need for Serenity, so you can at least get some of your shopping done too." Besides, shopping is always more fun with someone else.

Kaylee laughs, "And that just makes me an even bigger fan of this idea than before. It'll be nice to have a second opinion on some of the parts, too, just in case their quality's off at all."
