Title: Whispers In Nightmares IV- A Broken Promise, A Mended Lie

Author: YouCantStopTheSignal

Fandom: Firefly

Rating: PG13

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Firefly characters. Joss Whedon does. Thank him. I make no money from any of this.

Notes: I warn you now that this is not going to be a fanfic about the stupid mercenary named Jayne Cobb, who sometimes can’t even form a correct sentence.

This is set after “Objects in Space” but before “Serenity”.

There will be violence, language, etc. should the moment arise.

Would you like to talk more about the fanfic in a thread? Go here: Whispers In Nightmares: General Thread

Enjoy.

Deserted Passage

The large fist of Jayne Cobb collided with a ruined stone wall.

He had just shattered a promise; the only promise that mattered to him in the worthless existence he considered his life. He bent over in agony, seizing his head in his long hands. The crimson stain from his knuckles ran freely to his fingertips, leisurely dripping onto the fractured pavement like a thin stream of alcohol pouring into an old glass. He heaved a sigh, positioning his backside onto the stone surface and gradually sinking onto the unpleasantly cold concrete. The rock scraped his skin, leaving brazen red scratches all along his scarred backside, but he didn’t care.

As soon as he had stepped

Oooh, I am so enthralled.

And kinda confused, but I suspect it will all explain itself as we go.

Good work!

...wow with the words...: "The crimson stain from his knuckles ran freely to his fingertips, leisurely dripping onto the fractured pavement like a thin stream of alcohol pouring into an old glass." and "perhaps it was sending the liquid kisses to soothe his aching mind? Droplets of water caressed his sensitive skin as he sat ever still, ever vigilant. A large rumble settled over the city. The immense wail of nature echoed throughout the small alleyway he was mourning in, "

oh poor jayne!!!! at the flashback...

and WHA?????!!! i'm so confused, but of course that just means i'll be coming back to read more! you did say you knew something i don't know about the fic, and i'm starting to think you actually know quite a bit more than one thing.

ok, keep writing, keep flying, and stay shiny!

SHE'S THERE?!?!?!?!

Oh Poor Jayne. ESPECIALLY since, evidently, he broke the promise he made to her. (??? WITH WHO!? *grin*)

BTW: interesting take on the I "never kiss em on the mouth" comment.

*wondering what this gadget is that keeps his thoughts from River. Maybe some kind of jamming device? Or a diffuser.

...better and better I say. I just read so fast that I wish the chapters were longer. *sigh* But that would mean it was done, sooner. {I hate Catch 22s!}
