Heart of Gold [Mal practices cocking and aiming his gun in the dining area when Inara comes up behind him.] Inara: Hi. Mal: BWAH! Inara: [laughing] Sorry! Didn't mean to startle. Mal: You didn't! I was just, uh… "BWAH!" That's more like a… It's a warrior like… Strikes fear into the… hearts of… You know, not altogether wise, sneaking up on a fellow when he's handling his weapon. Inara: I'm sure I've heard that said. But… perhaps the dining area isn't the place for this sort of thing. Mal: What do ya mean? It's the only place with a table big enough. Inara: Of course. In that case, every well-bred petty crook knows that the small concealable weapons always go to the far left of the place setting. . . . [Inara departs. Mal melodramatically draws his gun.] Mal: Bwah. [Inara answers Nandi's vid-transmitted appeal.] Inara: It sounds like something this crew can handle. I can't guarantee they'll handle it particularly well, but… Nandi: If they got guns and brains at all. Inara: They've got guns… . . . [After Inara signs off…] Inara: I suppose you heard most of that? Mal: Only because I was eavesdropping. . . . Inara: I'll contact Nandi at once, but you will be paid. I feel it's important that we keep ours… strictly a business arrangement. Jayne: Don't much see the benefit in getting involved in strangers' troubles without a up-front price negotiated. Book: These people need assistance. The benefit wouldn't necessarily be for you. Jayne: That's what I'm sayin'. Zoe: No one's gonna force you to go, Jayne. As has been stated, this job is strictly speculative. Jayne: Good! Don't know these folks, don't much care to. Mal: They're whores. Jayne: I'm in. Inara: Nandi, this is Malcolm Reynolds. Nandi: I appreciate your coming. Mal: Well, any friend of Inara's is a strictly businesslike relationship of mine. . . . Mal: I'll introduce you to the rest later. They're good folk. Jayne: Can I start getting sexed already? Mal: Well, that one's kinda horrific. Kaylee: Look, they got boy whores! Isn't that thoughtful? Wonder if they service girlfolk at all. Simon: Isn't there a pregnant woman I'm to examine? Wash: [to Kaylee] You'd really lie with someone being paid for it? Kaylee: Well, it's not like anyone else is lining up to, you know, examine me. Jayne: Whoop! My John Thomas is about to pop off and fly around the room, there's so much tasty here. Ooh! Wash: Would be you get your most poetical about your pecker. Kaylee: Everyone's got somebody. Wash, tell me I'm pretty. Wash: Were I unwed, I would take you in a manly fashion. Kaylee: 'Cause I'm pretty? Wash: 'Cause you're pretty. Mal: Inara, think you could stoop to being on my arm? Inara: Will you wash it first? Mal: Nothing worse than a monster who thinks he's right with God. . . . Nandi: Captain Reynolds, it took me years to cut this piece of territory out of other men's hands, to build this business up from nothing. Mal: Nandi… Nandi: It's who I am, and it's my home. I'm not going anywhere. . . . Mal: Well, lady, I must say — you're my kinda stupid. Wash: Well, I'm not sure now is the best time to bring a tiny little helpless person into our lives. Zoe: That excuse is gettin' a little worn, honey. Wash: It's not an excuse, dear! It's objective assessment. I can't help that it stays relevant. Zoe: I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash, or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. [tenderly] You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period. Nandi: Truth is, I expected a whole lot more of you to be takin' payment in our trade. Mal: Well, we're an odd conglomeration. Got a preacher, a married fellah, and the doctor… well, he'd have to… relax for thirty seconds to get his play. That'd be more or less a miracle. [Simon and Inara tend to Petaline during her contractions. River waits at her feet like a catcher.] Inara: How many babies ha

I've got it!! For those who read my previous log, I got the text on Friday to say that Better Days was waiting for me in the Waterstones in Preston. Unfortunately, I live in Chorley, and was on my bus on the way home at the time. I had to wait till this morning. But I got it, and read it during my studio recording session. You know, whilst tech people were setting up, and other people's tracks were being laid. Ah, so worth the wait. xDD Anna.x.(:

Objects in Space [River comes out of a vision to find herself holding a gun, which Mal takes from her.] Mal: Fully loaded, safety off. This here is a recipe for unpleasantness. [to Simon] Does she understand that? River: She understands. She doesn't comprehend. Mal: Well, I'm glad we've made that distinction. Wash: Little River gets more colorful by the moment. What'll she do next? Zoe: Either blow us all up or rub soup in our hair. It's a toss-up. Wash: I hope she does the soup thing, it's always a hoot and we don't all die from it. . . . Zoë: Where's River at now? Mal: In her room, which I'm thinking we bolt from the outside from now on. Wash: That a little extreme, isn't it? Jayne: Anyone remember her comin' at me with a butcher's knife? Wash: [reminiscently] Wacky fun… Jayne: You wanna go, little man? Wash: Only if it's someplace with candlelight. Zoe: Sir, I know she's unpredictable. But I don't think she'd harm anyone. Jayne: Butcher's knife?! Zoe: Anyone we can't spare. Mal: Girl knows things. Things she shouldn't. Things she couldn't. Jayne: What, are you— are you sayin' she's a witch? Wash: [sarcastically] Yes, Jayne. She's a witch. She has had congress with the beast. Jayne: She's in Congress? Wash: How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious. . . . Wash: Psychic, though? That sounds like something out of science fiction. Zoe: We live in a spaceship, dear. Wash: So? . . . Jayne: Well… I don't like the idea of someone hearin' what I'm thinkin'. Inara: No one likes the idea of hearing what you're thinking. Book: The Alliance could have any number of uses for a psychic. Zoe: A psychic… or an assassin. Simon: She's just a kid! And she just wants to be a.... kid. Mal: I wish it were that simple. Jayne: Yeah, and if wishes were horses, we'd all be eatin' steak. [Kaylee hears something and crawls out from under engine...] Kaylee: River? .... River? [startled by Early] Wah! Early: I like this ship.... Serenity.... she's good looking. Kaylee: [stuttering] Ha-how how did you.... g-get on- Early: It strains the mind a bit don'it? But then you're all alone.... maybe I come down the chimney, Kaylee, bring presents to the good girls and boys. Maybe not, though. Maybe I've always been here. Kaylee: What d-do you want? Early: [looks at engine with double meaning.] That's a beating heart isn't it? Pull off any one of a thousand parts she'll just die. Such a slender thread.... [coldly] You ever been raped? Kaylee: [almost in tears.] M-Mal.... th-the captain is right down the hall-hallway- He.... c-can.... hear you- Early: The captain is locked in his quarters. They all are. There's nobody can help you... Say it. Kaylee: [breathless.] There's.... there's nobody can help me. Early: I'm'onna tie you up now- Kaylee: [whimpers.] Early: And you know what-I'ma do then? I'ma give you a present. Get rid of a problem you've got. And I won't touch you in any wrong fashion, nor hurt you at all, unless you make some kind of ruckus. You throw a monkey wrench into my deal'ins in any way, your body is forfeit. Ain't nothing but a body to me and I can find all unseemly manner of use for it. Do you understand? Kaylee: [holding back tears.] Yes. Early: Turn around and putcher hands behind yer back. Kaylee: Oh ughhhh.... [moans, but does as she's told.] Early: [From behind her as he ties her up.] Now tell me Kaylee, where does River sleep? [The mysterious intruder holds Simon at gunpoint.] Simon: Are you Alliance? Early: Am I a lion? Simon: What? Early: I don't think of myself as a lion. You might as well, though — I have a mighty roar. Simon: I said "Alliance". Early: Oh, I thought— Simon: No, I was— Early: That's weird. . . . Simon: So you're a bounty hunter. Early: No, that ain't it at all. Simon: Then what are you? Early: I'm a bounty hunter. . . . Simon: You're outta your mind. Early: That's between me and my mind. . . . Early: They make psychiatrists get psychoanalyzed

Okay, so to start, I've been a little blocked in the writing lately. While expressing this to my Dad (also known as Dadoo), he said he'd been thinking about what could happen in the sequel to "Serenity." I said, "sure, Dadoo, let's hear it." And he told me the outline of "my" current piece - The Reunion. Given that Dadoo is a canon-only-fan, I listened happily as he told me what he thought happened years after the movie ended. We argued on some points (turns out my father doesn't like Inara's character at all and she didn't appear in his telling of the story. when I asked about her, he said "oh, she went back to wherever" and I repeated line-for-line her last conversation in "Serenity," he said "well, okay if you want to include her...i guess, she could...") and since I ADORE the Mal/Inara romance, I decided to make that a bigger part of the tale. We also discussed River - who I always find a challenge to write - and agreed that because in the Visual Companion to "Serenity," the shooting script gives vague notions that River might be on the mend suddenly, and Joss says in the cast commentary that when she vomits after seeing the hologram, it's a catharsis...I decided to keep her a little on the loopy side and a little on the sane side...but still odd. So...all that being said...I hope you will forgive me my rusty writing, the slightly-sane River moments and the absence of Inara. I missed her in writing this. But I still hope you enjoy it.

So, I've got this OC named Foreman, and he's a shape-shifter. That's awesome, but I've hit a snag as regards the science behind his ability. Right now, the idea is that he can alter his molecular structure, but when he morphs into somebody smaller, like River, or a young child, where does all that extra mass go? And how does he get it back when he reverts to his regular form? Now, I could follow WoonSocket's idea in the comments on Starfall - Chapter 2 and make his ability a telepathic one, as in, he projects mental illusions, or maybe he could project optical illusions. Making the change wouldn't be that big of a deal. What do you all think?

I've finally caught up by posting the stories from my fanfic LJ over here. And I'm happy that it's come to that place with 'She'll Fly True,' which I just realized is my longest Firefly fic (even though it's still a one-shot). I keep hoping that a multi-chaptered Firefly idea will hit me up side the head, hard and unsubtle as a Jayne punch.

After doing some research to find some Mal suspenders, and finding a clue that led me to them (in the mail as I type), I thought I'd sit and stay a spell. Hopefully there's room aboard for a lonesome browncoat from Southern Arizona.

Do you ever get into a funk where you just don't want to watch [i]Firefly[/i] or [i]Serenity[/i], even if you had the time? Because I'm in one, and it's kind of weird. I was never one of those Browncoats that watched an episode every week or even month, but it's been more than a few months since I've watched anything, and I feel like I should want to watch them, but I don't. It's not a big deal - I need to be focusing on my schoolwork, anyway. Mostly I just wanted to put a new blog up to replace the last one, and I didn't want to just babble nonsensically about my life, because that would have gone on [b]forever[/b]. :smile:

For three years -- 2006, 2007, and 2008 -- I was the coordinator of the Raleigh "Can't Stop the Serenity" event. In that time, we raised more than $10,500.00 for Equality Now. However, this year, I have passed the torch to a new organizer. Instead, I have offered to be a Global Sponsor! I will be donating handmade Browncoat jewelry to all of the cities participating in this year's CSTS. For the past three years, I've had a lot of requests from various city organizers for prize donations, but due to the immense commitment of running my own event, I never had the time to make so many pieces. I'm really happy to be able to do so this year. ~Flame~

So the himself decided not to pay january support. One wondered why, but reported it to the attorney and went on ones way. Well TODAY I was served with a summons. he wants to have the support reduced because he has a new job at 'substantially less pay" which mind you is still $400 a month MORE than I make with the 2 jobs AND the child support. Then in the court documents he references a truck payment he has to make. This would be the truck that he bought AFTER he sold the one my mom had paid off and the court had said he had to repay. The he puts that he spends approximately $800 a month for food for 3 people and has to pay a mortgage and a second mortgage. He acts like he is the only one paying those bills and like the new wife is not working and then he reference a life insurance policy he is paying on HER 21 YEAR OLD KID! All this in the same week I find out that #2 needs SUBSTAINIAL dental work to the tune of oh about $3000. bucks SOMEONE SHOOT ME NOW!

I received this new novel by Peter V. Brett a couple days ago from Del-Rey for review and so I decided to sit down from my few months being a mom to read it. I was so glad I did. The Warded Man is an intense ride that begins with the lives of three young children that through different diversities survive to fight on in a world where just the corelings or demons aren't the only things that should be feared. In this well written novel, you will meet Arlen, Leesha, and Rojer, each set on their own path by tragedy or by the evil of others. Their journeys are all thwart with different types of danger from One Armed demons to the evil of greedy men. Each one will have you wrapped around their stories as they pull you from the world you know into one that nights are feared and demons roam only to take you into that darkness never to return. The Warded Man is a well put together novel. With intense actions scenes that do not rob from the brilliant dialogue, the beautiful, yet, horrifying imagery literally engulfs you in a world that is filled with mountains, deserts, wall cities, and small villages. Each chapter brings you deeper into the shadows filling your mind with visions of small fire demons to the large stone ones. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves good fantasy and great action. It is a bit on the dark side with some violence to kids as well as to grown ups so please use discression when looking at it for kids younger than sixteen or so. Other than that, I implore you to give Mr. Brett a chance. I know I will be reading the next in his series for sure.....

Hi there. I've been lurking for awhile and thought I would say hi finally. The name is Robyn and I come from the wonderful land of Ohio. Okay, maybe not wonderful at the moment since it's been a crappy winter. I discovered Firefly a year ago after seeing Serenity on HBO. Ever since than, I've been a huge fan. I wish I could have watched it live when it first aired but unfortunally that was my last semester in college and any free time I had I was sleeping. Bad enough I had billions of VHS tapes of Buffy episodes to catch up on. So anyways, just wanted to say hi. So hi! :smile:
