On the Heart of Gold

Aug 08, 2005 16:02

The ship's been cleaned. Insanely. Every bit of it's shining brightly, even whiter than it normally is, and all is pristine and perfect for a trip that guarantees, considering time and the personages involved, that by the time they land, it'll be a mess ( Read more... )

Sharpe strides onto the ship, with sword, rifle and probably less visible weaponry. He nods to each of those already there.

Max gives him a bit of a salute.

"I don't believe we've met."

and_far_away August 7 2005, 20:39:48 UTC

"Richard Sharpe. Pleased to meet you."

He's trying very hard not to look out of his depth. But. 1815. Spaceship.

"Max Evans. Hi."

A pause.

"Um, and Zan, if he calls for introduction. Same to you. Thanks for coming."

Max can't thank anyone enough.

and_far_away August 7 2005, 20:50:54 UTC

"You're welcome. When're we heading out, then?"

antarianmax August 7 2005, 21:07:29 UTC

"When everyone arrives, whenever that is. No one's likely to be late, I can say that much."

and_far_away August 7 2005, 21:18:05 UTC

"Who's still expected?"

antarianmax August 7 2005, 21:28:37 UTC

"Um."

Max looks about.

"Havelock Vetinari, Robin Goodfellow, Meg Giry, Valentine Skywalker, Arthur Dent, um ... Mouse ... I don't have the best memory for names sometimes."

and_far_away August 7 2005, 21:29:49 UTC

He nods. "I think I've only met Meg of those. She's a good shot, for all she's still learning."

Ford waves at Sharpe from across the bridge.

"Hey, you made it! That's cool, man. Really cool."

and_far_away August 8 2005, 14:35:02 UTC

Sharpe grins and waves back.

"Afternoon."

onehoopyprefect August 8 2005, 14:40:01 UTC

"Great to see you. How've you been since we talked?"

and_far_away August 8 2005, 14:42:20 UTC

"Good. Got a dog. You?"

onehoopyprefect August 8 2005, 14:45:59 UTC

Umm... the girl I've been tentatively courting has just shown up married to a complete stranger who, as far as I can tell, has no issue whatsoever with vaporizing me and clearly has enough power in his little finger alone to do it without batting an eye.

"Hoopy. No dog, though. Bit of a hangover. But that's normal enough."

and_far_away August 8 2005, 14:55:21 UTC

Sharpe grins. "Good time last night then?"

He has no idea.

onehoopyprefect August 8 2005, 15:14:57 UTC

"By the second bottle, it was."
