Didn't know all that about Mal's ma.

[alexis_laforge]

Although I did suspect as much (and about his dad, too). Nice of him to share it with you!

Always a blessing when Mal gets to taling about his past. It doesn't happen often, so I try to listen really hard >;0)

He's a close-mouthed chap, in a way, isn't he?

[alexis_laforge]

Mal may talk a lot and make jokes sometimes, but it seems like he's talking to push things outward, sometimes, and to deflect away from himself. You always learn something important when he does open up, though.

The tough part for me is asking him the right quesitons and then waiting while he conjures on it for a time...
Thanks for your always accurate observations Alex! I miss you when you don't swing by >:0)

Thank goodness spring break has rolled around

I've been writing so much I thought my hands were going to fall off. But now I can do the important things, like watching telly and reading fanfiction. :)
