Well now I feel silly...
Aww, don't feel silly. There's a lot of us who love him in that "boo-boo kissing" way.
OoG - my very favorite episode. It is so much fun to see folks experience the episodes for the first time. Thank you so much for honestly sharing your impressions.

I cried at so many points in Firefly/Serenity I can't count 'em.
It's unnatural if ya DON'T!
Welcome to the 'Verse(es).

Mutant Enemy have causing human suffering and misery down to a fine art. Seriously. I found this out many, many years ago when I watched the season 2 finale of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Until then, I never thought my heart could actually break for a bunch of fictional characters. And I'd read Ginger's death scene in Black Beauty!

Fictional weeping - "Look, Raist, bunnies..." Or the bear in 'The Last Battle'. Or Boxer...
It's the mark of great writing that you get so involved.
OoG is one of my favourites. Just the backstory, and that look on Mal's face at the end when he's looking at Serenity.
Always wondered her backstory, and what Harbatkin named her...

Awww, I'm sorry to hear you're so lonely and having a rough time this summer. I'm glad Firefly has been able to help some.
Jaynestown is a good for one making you laugh after all the sad ones.
Out of Gas & War Stories are two of the worst for sad moments.
Heart of Gold always gets me, too. I don't want to say too much because I'm guessing by what you've said that you haven't seen that one yet. But, there's a Wash & Zoe scene that just breaks my heart. I sobbed after I saw it the first time. (Of course, I saw Serenity first... so, I knew some things you wouldn't ordinarily know if you saw Firefly first, like it's meant to be.) Inara has a sad scene in that one, too. I wanted to reach through the screen and hug her. (Then smack her and Mal both and tell 'em to finally get together and stop playing around!)
Re: Mal -- I think he's a good guy, deep inside. Oh, he's tough, and he does some bad things, but... still! You gotta love him. Besides, he does a lot of good things, too.

Wow, never put those two in the same place before.
Both had to fight for their souls, well figurativly speaking- for one that is...
Just sayin' Chrisisall

Well now, red, what's all this feeling
silly? You're having your chain yanked,
your tears jerked, and your guts ripped
out by masters of their trade.
I came home one afternoon and found my
young daughter sitting on the sofa,
snurfling ferociously. In her lap was a
book her grandmother had given her.
Raising a red-nosed face at me she asked,
"Why am I sitting here crying about a
stupid fictional DOG?"
I like to try to remember that when I
see something on my SereniFly discs and
tear up once more in some tomfool Pavlovian
fashion over something I've seen so many
times I could *quote* it.
They make you love them, then shoot them,
and someone's puppy.
Evil, evil, evil.
Give in to it. Good for your sinuses.
Great banner, BTW.

Thanks!
I haven't seen Buffy or any of the other shows in the Jossverse...but this one just hits something inside of me...
Maybe it is because Mal and Zoe are war vets and I have a special place in my heart for soldiers...
Maybe it is because Mal is so loyal to his crew and demands that same sense of loyalty...
Maybe it is because...sometimes Love isn't packages with a bow but is packaged in something less refined...
But...being lonely and feeling alienated and dissappointed with my family...makes me yearn something fierce for a crew to love me too...
:) I'm glad I found this one...
PS: THanks for complimenting my banner...

I have a very good ability to suspend disbelief when there is good writing...
I wept for DAYS for Ennis and Jack from Brokeback Mountain...
I fell head over heels in love with the character's from the book series "Tales of the City" by Armistead Maupin and for a time felt like they were truly my friends...
My friends think I'm silly...they don't understand fandoms...but then...i don't undertand them either and I'm smack dab in the middle of it.
