I've been on some pretty odd worlds in my time but I never saw one like that before. Somethin' new every day on this ship, huh? [On the whole, he sounds pretty pleased about it.] Anyone out there know how to patch up spike holes in leather?

[Private to Natasha]

Appreciate the expertise back in the wilds there. How'd you know how to deal with big cats?

Almost had the same problem. Long coats and traps don't go together.

Jaguar defense. So next time the Barge turns into an ancient jungle wonderland you want your Bite weapon? Think I can agree to that.

[After living on Serenity Simon, along with the rest of the crew, has probably learned not to turn down good help no matter where it comes from. Really, Mal just thinks it'd be funny to see the doctor unnerved, and so far he's been disappointed in that regard.]

Seems to well enough. Better'n well, that's some fine tailorin'. What do I owe you for that?

[useofaswhat]

Yeah, I think so. Haven't seen 'em myself, but that don't mean they ain't there.

[useofaswhat]

Guess it's a small multiverse.

Uh-huh. Got all of that up till the Oa part, but, just out of curiosity? What's fighting for what's right, exactly? Phrases like that mean a hell of a lot of things to different people.

[There is a long pause as she processes this, never having been asked that before.]

...I am not sure I understand the question.

Are the concepts of "right" and "wrong" not made evident where you come from?

[useofaswhat]

My ma once said never let a fashion choice get you killed. Did my best to take it to heart.

[useofaswhat]

Plenty of folk fight for what they think is right, against other people fighting for what they say's right. So when you say you fight for what's right, sounds a mite like you expect me to side with you. Which might be reasonable enough, depending how you decide what's proper. Do you got a list of rights and wrongs? Does this Green Lantern corps have an actual cause, or are they just pickin' fights where they see fit?

[looksfine]

I am unaware of any specific list. But the Lanterns exist to maintain peace, so I would say that no, they do not "pick fights" unless first threatened.

[bringsbadnews]

I have to take my chances at times. No reflection.

[useofaswhat]

Peace, huh? Now that's an entirely different kind of fighting.

[useofaswhat]

How the hell did that happen?

[looksfine]

What do you mean?

[bringsbadnews]

I'm a vampire, in my world it comes standard.

[useofaswhat]

Ah. [He accepts that fairly easily, nodding as if they'd just come to an understanding.] Hologram would've been my guess. You new around here?

[useofaswhat]

In my experience the ones keepin' the peace usually do a little fighting to enforce it. Usually more than a little.

[bringsbadnews]

For the most part, I arrived a couple of weeks ago. Hearing about a "flood" and experiencing them are two completely different things.

[thestarspangledman]

To be honest, I'm surprised people still remember it. It was a long time ago for you, right?

What do you owe - nothing. [He smiles and shakes his head.] The infirmary doesn't charge, and I don't either.

[Private]

[persuadeyou]

I was thinking more along the lines of now, in case of next time.

[anidiotchild]

No. There isn't anything else that needs patching up, is there? [He's maybe taking a little bit of a Tone with you, but you should be used to him being kind of a sarcastic ass sometimes, right?]

[looksfine]

As I have previously stated, we fight if threatened or provoked.

[No apologies about that]

[Private]

[useofaswhat]

That depends real heavily on what you plan to use it for. Woman like you with skills like yours, seems to me she'd handle herself fine, Bite or not. [He speaks from experience. Saffron had been... brilliant. Ruthless. Incredibly talented, not to mention a master at weaving new identities for herself. Mal didn't need to be told not to arm a woman like that.]

You're sayin' we're square? The way I see it this comes out a little light on your end.

[useofaswhat]

[Oh, has he ever gotten used to that. And hopefully Simon's come to expect the same from him.] I got a few socks in need of darning, doc, if you're fixing to practice your needlework.
