Vaguely heard through dorm walls Sunday evening

[julian-lawless.livejournal.com]

Julian returns from having dutifully turned in his guns as ordered. He calmly walks down the hall and calmly closes the door of 209 behind him.

Muffled swearwords in multiple languages (the most prevalent being English, Russian, and oddly, Irish Gaelic) can be heard for quite some time.

It might be safe to try and cheer him up, given that his guns are gone.

Or it might not.

I don't know how far Wash and Kaylee got. I was going to talk to Jayne tomorrow about taking over the Flight Club anyway--I'll swing by and see how it looks. I'm pretty handy with machinery, too, so a few minutes with her and I'll be able to tell if she'll ever get airborne.

Shame to kill the thing, though. Padmé aside, it's provided some quality entertainment tossing unsuspecting beings into the water. Probably why Principal Connor's kept it aroudn so long--seems like her kind of humor.

*snarls something under his breath about Principal Connor's sense of hunor*

All right, I'll trust your judgement on that. I've only ever flown mass-produced vehicles, I've no idea how to gauge airworthiness.

Hmmmm. Perhaps if we diluted pesticides with water, it would simply wilt the tree down to a more manageable size. Then it could only grab the really dumb freshmen few silly enough to get within range.

*smiles in agreement at Sark's muttering* Probably why there aren't signs around the thing to warn people, either.

It'll be pretty easy to know how the ships's doing--if it lifts off the ground: good. If not: bad.

*shrugs*

Sorry, I'm a little twitchy today too. I haven't walked around without a lightsaber since I was ten. You get used to having it, you know?

We might even get bonus points for not killing the thing. Advanced negotiations without loss of life: Padmé should be all over it.

I quite sympathize. I have not been without a gun since...well, I was young. I named my first one Binky.

*chuckles* I was hoping for a method of flight-testing that would not involve plummeting to earth in a fireball if it proves unsafe. But as I said, I'm happy to leave it to you.

Bonus points are always good. Especially for you, Romeo.

I suppose there are methods that would check to see if it the ship would fly without the mortal peril part, but really, where's the fun in that?

Oh, I know. Any little bit helps, I guess.
