Leif's DISCONTINUED GURPS Traveller Game -- IC01

OOC: Couldn't we go back for the passengers and cargo? We're still on the same planet, right? Just a different continent... right?

Insight, yes, I understood that this is precisely what you are doing. ;) Did I say something to indicate otherwise? I certainly didn't intend to do so if I did.
 

The meat is a bit on the 'gamey' side, but Jimmy is able to make a passably sumptuous meal with it, anyway. ;)

Once everyone has eaten, Jimmy remarks, "I'll keep a roast for a stew, but it seems like this will make better seasoned jerky than steak.

Now to prepare for the passengers."

With that, Jimmy works on cleaning staterooms, etc. until landing.
 

Inthe/Glisten en route to Edenelt/Trin's Veil [FINALLY!]

When Jimmy gets done with his preparations, the rest of the crew hardly recognize the staterooms at all. He's done everything, right down to mints on the pillows and a half-pint of his special family elixir tucked between the pillows. ;)

Doc Hannigan remarks, "Well, sunuvagun! I didn't even realize that the Zax came with shoe trees! Who'd-a-thunk it?"

Inthe/Glisten en route to Edenelt/Trin's Veil [FINALLY!]

The Zax arrives back in the vicinity of the Inthe Starport, and after a few minutes in a holding/loitering pattern, you are directed to land adjacent to the Concourse for boarding/loading. While Gruffle oversees the lading operations, and Zoe and Spider take care of last minute maintenance and fueling, Kaira and Jimmy go to round up the passengers. There's just one problem: almost all of the passengers are waiting and ready, but there's one missing. His fare is paid up like the others, and his baggage is being loaded, but the man, one Jarson Wenceslaus, is not to be found in the waiting area.
 

Gruffle

Gruffle hears about the missing person on the roster,
heads to the passenger boarding section of the ship
& calls out over the intercom/speaker system to the
people standing around outside, "Is Jarson Wenceslaus
here? Does anyone know Jarson Wenceslaus? If
so, please step forward.
"

Gruffle looks out at the crowd for any reaction that
he might see.
 

Kaira searches the loading area for anyone reacting suspiciously to the announcement, or anyone acting nervously in general.

OOC: Using my newly raised Observation skill.
 

Jimmy

Jimmy helps the passengers board and get situated, telling them with a smile, "We will be ready for takeoff as soon as all cargo and passengers are aboard."
 

Oblivious to the missing passenger problem, Spider sets himself to dealing with the needs of the Zax and alternately fantasizing about Zoe who he is working closely with and hoping that she can't read his mind.
 

Gruffle

Seeing nothing, Gruffle speaks over the intercom,
"If Jarson Wenceslaus doesn't come forward, we
will be selling your seat to another passenger. No
refunds."

(OOC: Will the bluff be called? :uhoh:)
