[ Okay, so he's not wearing a shirt. But he's got his pants and gun belt on, weapons all secure so there's that at least. And he's pissed as he glares at the damn device. ]

This ain't mine.

[ Pause. Shrug. The device is tucked into his pocket. ]

Takin' the gorram thing anyway. If folks're gonna be dumb enough ta leave their things with mine, I ain't lookin' ta give it back. Nice lookin' anyhow. Sell it fer somethin'.

[ Pause. There's shuffling as he puts on his shirt. ]

Right. Got 'em all.

[ Pause. ]

Now where's the gorram ship?

[ Jayne smirks. ]

Well, they get ta shootin' around again, I'll be ready. Love 'em gun fights.

[ Or fights in general. ]

Jayne Cobb. Who're you?

[catchingflies]

Uh, okay.

[ ... weirdo. Reminded him of Dukes, kinda, actually.]

Tolansky. Todd Tolansky. You just woke up, huh?

[Way to state the obvious, Toad.]

[ Pause. ]

Guessin' you could say that. Walked right out of one of these pod things. Ain't sure how long I'd been in there. Ain't long, I don't think.

[ He looks around a bit. ]

Where am I?

[catchingflies]

On the ship. Uh, Salvation's her name. The planet's Verdana, and when you get outa there, you can come down to Poseidon where most of us're living. It's not too bad. Ain't New York, or nothin', but it ain't too bad.

[Todd doesn't usually do the welcome shpiels.]

[Video]

[be_in_my_bunk]

Verdana? Ain't never heard of that. Is it passed Miranda or somethin'? ... aint' sure what New York is neither, but I ain't gonna complain 'slong as this place got somewhere I can get guns 'n a drink.

[catchingflies]

And I'd never heard of it neither, before we all woke up here and stuff. But you gotta come to Poseidon for the drink, and, uh, I doubt the cop-types would like you tryin' to take guns. Didn't you come with any?

[Everybody he knows who cares about guns has come with them. Well, except him, but he makes do with what Indrani shares.]

[be_in_my_bunk]

Gonna need a drink. And I gotta pistol. 'm I gonna need it gettin' to a bar? There that much trouble here?

[ He wanted more of them, honestly. ]

[Video]

[catchingflies]

Doubt it. I mean, the road from the Old City to Poseidon's pretty big and got people on it most of the time. None of the big stuff goes anywhere near it, yo. Too likely the soldiers going home'd blow it up, or somethin'.

[Video]

[be_in_my_bunk]

Good. Ain't no one gettin' in the way of my drinkin' tonight 'less they lookin' to have one less head.

[ He's grumpy, okay? ]

[Video]

[catchingflies]

Okay, okay. Geez. You're not very nice, are ya?

[He's used to that, though.]

[Video]

[be_in_my_bunk]

Ain't no reason ta be nice if I ain't gettin' paid for it. Nice don't get much in the 'verse.

[ So, no. Not really. ]
