counting one, two, three...
LOOK IT WAS THE ONLY SONG I COULD THINK OF OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD THAT HAD COUNTING IN THE LYRICS. Don't judge my Brit-Brit love.
It's meme time, Taxon. WITHOUT FURTHER ADO:
THE FIVE THINGS MEME
We've all seen the fic, right? 'Five Times ________ Did ____________' and so on. We're gonna ~adapt~ that sucker, aw yis.

Five Foods River Hates.

It's mostly water, proportionally speaking. At least more than fifty-two percent, factoring in the size of the bowl and presence of various additional ingredients.
The rest of it, meats and peas and noodles, is just floating. Swimming. The entire set-up is disconcerting. And it smells like rotten tea.
No one notices it during dinner (especially not Regan, who is far too preoccupied with quizzing Simon on his plans for next semester), but the Unexplainable Puddle later discovered under the dining room table is a serious discussion topic for two weeks after.

They packed it with nutrients, of course. Green jiggling meals in little cups between needles and 'counseling' sessions. When appropriate, they were packed with a little extra punch than what was strictly needed for the diet of a growing child.
('Fee, fie, foe, fum,' the giants say, and they grind their still growing bones down to make a by-product food substitute.River ate it dutifully, despite the occasionally mealy texture and unsettling jiggle; ( ... )

Scrambled. Over easy. Benedict. Poached.
Poached is the worst. She pokes the bubble of it until there's a runny mess seeping toward the hash brown-esque pile of protein, pushes it around the plate until it's hard to tell where the egg isn't.
Mal is understandably irked. It isn't often they get such a healthsome source of protein that isn't a pile of processed mush, and not eating it is a waste. But her eyes get that wild, spooked look when he suggests, "Just hold your nose and swallow. Ain't wasting this much good food."
He drops it, doesn't want any stabbing to take place over breakfast (again) and somewhere in the flurry of worried looks as River leaves the table Jayne ends up with her plate.
5. STUFF SIMON COOKS
Once upon a time, this had been something else. Ingredients that could, in other circumstances, amount to something entirely different.
As it is, River is left looking at a bowl all full of uncooperative flavors and intentions too steeped in guilt and pride (equal parts that mix about as well as the oil and ( ... )

They think she's fine. Hell, she just fought a vampire and won; she not only stood on her two feet, she fought, defended, rescued. Something to count in the 'win' column, tally away as being a success. Something to be proud of.
Once Angelus is down, chained in the basement as Dawn is freed and taken care of, as Drusilla is restrained, River fades back from the group. Away, slowly, trembling from the adrenaline and lactic acid built up in her muscles, the few wounds she sustained bleeding politely with a pain she can't quite register yet but will ache relentlessly in two days time.
She gets turned around in one of the Wolfram & Hart hallways. Navigation is difficult without Tara's magic leading the way anymore, and the layer of confusion sitting so disjointed on top of everything else thrumming in her bones leaves her retching into a potted plant.
It's deprogrammed like so much trash before anyone has a chance to notice the smell.
