Greetings, folks! We've been on a bit of a hiatus since the end of 2006, but last week we aired "Shards," our first new episode for 2007! Up next week is "Trap," and we're hoping to get the rest of Season Two out to y'all on a roughly bi-weekly basis.
To read our most recent episode, click here (it's 50+ pages, so it may take a minute):

Or, if you're new to us, you can read our Season One episodes (picking up right after "Objects in Space"), by opening up the "virtual DVD set" here:

For those of you who are not familiar with our project, Still Flying is a fan-based site dedicated to a "virtual continuation" of Joss Whedon's "Firefly" in the form of scripts of additional episodes. We've rounded out Season One, completing it with seven new episodes (including a season finale based on "Serenity: Those Left Behind" from Dark Horse Comics).
We've produced 22 episode-length scripts since December 2005, which means we’ve got more than a THOUSAND pages of Firefly script to share with y’all! We hope that those of you who haven’t been along for the ride will stop by and pay a visit.
Our current season, Season Two, is dedicated to exploring the question, "What would things have been like if Joss Whedon had been able to tell the story of "Serenity" (recently voted the best sci fi movie of all time in an online poll) in 22 episodes rather than 2 hours?" Our story takes you to most of the same places the movie does, but the path along the way will be a little different, and a good bit longer.
We strive to mix Whedon's canon with new material to keep things fresh and exciting, and based on the feedback on our forum, we've been doing a pretty good job!
With 15 of Season Two’s 22 episodes behind us, we’ve seen some old friends and more than a few old enemies. We can't promise that we'll entertain you as much as Mister Whedon would have, but you should know that this project has been put together by those who care about the show, and we're taking this bird up out of love.
Like most Browncoats, we know that Whedon will return to us with another movie, book, or some other way to continue the tale he started in "Firefly." Until that time, we'll be here. We will hold the line.
We can't show you exactly how Joss Whedon would've done it, but we can tell you...

TRAIN!!!
Remember: When introducing Zoe to your shiny new ship, pay attention to where she's pointing when she says "What is that?" That's where you're going to be laying, bleeding someday.

*sigh* I dunno....The stories are well-plotted and spot-on in character, but I've still had a hard time reading the last few - with every episode my heart breaks for River all over again. 
I do hope they make it to Miranda soon.

This entire season has been absolutely riveting -- you guys are as close to canon as fanfic can get. (Is there an icon for "love you to death" or "high five" or "woot"?)
Thanks for still flying :)

It feels like the writers at VFF have really found their groove with thier 2nd season - the last 3 eps in particular have felt very canon-ish imho. Plus, they've added some art! Never before seen type stuff - where else can you get new Firefly?

As heartbreaking as these eps. are for all characters, especially the exploitation and treatment of River(by the Alliance and now Mal and Co.) and Inara (by the Alliance/Guild and now the Operative) they are probably truest in tone, maybe not in content, to Joss' vision. Difficult to read at times...yes, but enjoyable none the less.

Thanks for the kind words on the project, everyone! If this keeps up, I swear to you I will get very choked up. Honestly. There could be tears.

Hi, folks. We're a few days behind schedule due to technical difficulties, but our newest episode is available:
2x16 - Trap
Written by David Elmer
Art by Mary McKay Eaton
When Inara Waves Mal for assistance, Serenity heads to Bena, where the crew suspects a trap is waiting for them.
Sound familiar? Most of us know the basics of the tale, but that's part of what our Virtual season Two is about: even if you think you know the story, we've got twists and turns waiting for you! Maybe you've always wondered what was going on back on Serenity while Mal was playing dress-up... Well, here's your chance to find out!
Hope y'all enjoy the episode. Next up... Well, let's just say you can expect to see a different side of a certain Shepherd.
Keep flying,
George
