Deacon had to chuckle hearing the Doctor refer to Persephone as the Rim.  "I'm not sure how far you've traveled, but we haven't even hit the Rim yet.  This is Persephone, might not be a core world, but it's a far cry from the rim.  We're a stones throw from a reknown race field and another from estates that throw balls comprable to the Core worlds.  Hell if you had the money you could buy your own firefly here."<br/><br/>He leaned back against the the doorway, waiting to hear what the plan was for meeting with Mr. Lord.  He doubted the Captain would want him along, he didn't enjoy these things, though he would sit aways away and keep a scope on them in the event there were any issues, just don't have him do the talking.  Still, they might have little to do until the Companion meets with the guy, which could leave him time to try and find any rumors about an independent blockaid runner.  The ship can be crap, he just wants to take a crack at the engines.  if he could harvest them the Destiny would literally outrun any ship in the Verse.  Course you might also think you're going to die when you take off as th engines would be way opver powered for the ships size.
