"Show me a River running wild, but don't break this heart."

Yesterday, I spent some time in the chat-room. Not an altogether 'shiny' experience (I can't believe I just said that!). Folks were talking about fanfic (now there's a word I hadn't heard before, being Dutch and all). But, I dunno, I got to talk; and there was this one guy who's in the habit of writing this smutty stuff between Jayne and River. Now see, I don't like that. Not one bit.

Now, don't think I'm getting all prudish on you; I'm a man, too; and she's to die for, so beautiful; I get that. But, to me, she'll always be that "creature of extraordinary grace" because of her innocence and frailty. And I care to see that preserved. They should not be messing with River like that (which is never a good idea to begin with, lol). Now, one of these days I will work up enough courage to actually tell these people off. In the meantime, I'm just groggy in my bloggy, so to speak. And I will make it a good point to avoid the dark; after all, 'shiny' is just a place where people bring their own light.

Besides, have you seen River's eyes? Those beautiful wide eyes! They are so telling. Nothing smutty, I assure you, is needed for true Love: "The soul that can speak through the eyes can also kiss with a gaze."
