Yes, I've been writing scenes for BSBW. Some of them fit into the story better than others.
This particular scene is set during Doug and the Grandis Gang's boarding action on Red Noah - or, rather, it would be if I was going to leave it it. But it's just too fun not to share...
"Our path leads right through that room filled with Neo-Atlantis soldiers. How do we get past them?"

The troops were getting bored waiting for deployment orders from Gargoyle or one of his subordinates. Some of them started wishing for something, anything, to happen.

And they put their hats back on just as they left through the starboard-side door.
The assembled troops gave them a polite round of applause, then went back to waiting for orders.

No, I'm not at all ashamed of this...
