yeah - and this really has me thinking... there's a BIG reaver fleet somewhere still. there's no definitive proof that miranda was the only test site either...

I would assume there to be a lot of lone rangers out there, not a massive "fleet".

Yeah after I posted that I did the math and figured out that there would be quite a bit.

Can I make a quick suggestion? Listen to Firefly Talk!

We aired a panel with Morena where she dealt with this very topic, in episode #38 last year.

From the show notes - "a revelation from Morena about just what that syringe was for (don't tell Joss)"[/qoute]

I cant pull that up right now could you tell me the high points of what was learned

Okay, my crack about Immortals was a joke.

People on the Core worlds seem to be very accepting of the world they live in. Maybe it's something to do with the food. Or the toothpaste. (Listen to River's little Shindig freak-out again.) So I don't think the idea that the Companions would have access to and training in the use of certain pharmaceuticals, beyond the bounds of reason.

It goes beyond the bounds of reason, however, to have too many 'Verse-changing secrets on board one little ship.

I've a few ideas on Reavers etc, too.

Just a thought. So, you release a gas into the atmo, and it affects a certain percentage of the population. Wouldn't it make sense to try and capture some of that percentage and see what the common factor is? Some genetic twist (hey, a Sylar gene... ) So, you then take people with that genetic marker, and expose them. You wouldn't have your super-soldiers, but you could then let the horde loose someplace, and then come along to clean up the mess, hail to the saviours...

But then I believe in large political conspiracies and the duplicity of government, and I really distrust GM food.

crack?

"Take my love, take my land,
Take my crack stem from my hand,
I don't care, I'm still free,
My fingers stink of feces

Take me out, buy some crack,
Tell your mom I'll be right back,
Burn the land boil the sea,
You can't take this high from me

There's no place I can be
since I started smoking trees

You can't take my crack from me"

My idea was this (and I was going to weave this into a story):
The contents in the vial is a drug that scrambles nerve impulses -- stick your hand in hot water for a couple of minutes, then stick it under cold water. it feels hot for a second, then becomes cold.

For the vial -- it takes sensations of pain (rape, cutting, cannibalism, cancellation notices) and makes them pleasurable, maybe even desirable. After all -- if you're going to go... go with a smile.

This is really out there but a slight possibility. What if she has to use the serum to keep her from becoming something else. Kind of like a potion that keeps her human. Maybe she even was experimented on herself.
