...a (self and reader-)questioning post inspired by the
Gen Female Character Ficathon*, because last night I wrote an
untitled Mal/Kaylee kisslet (PG?), post Serenity for
musesfool.
Her girl's been running sweet, despite all the hiccups in her way, so after they make planetfall, Kaylee is ready to press the button and stretch wide open the doors to see the light come in. Not that there isn't some glow from the stars and suchlike when they're flying through space, and not that she'd exchange her working-passage on Serenity to be land-bound again, but the human skin was made for sunshine, and she's quick to take it, stepping forward to greet the day, lips parted in a smile.
A smile that doesn't diminish as she hears the steady tread coming behind her.
"Lettin' River deal with the landing, Cap'n?" she throws out, the gladness strong like the tide in her voice.
"If she could take the high-speed chasing of the past few days, I figured she could put us down safe." He is close, right up behind her, and Kaylee could lean back on him if she wanted, but it isn't quite what she wants. "And look, no broken bones or gashing wounds."
She turns to check, appraising him so slow it's ridiculous, hiding her smile, nodding solemn as his tone of voice,
"Figured right."
He's the one who cracks, the smirk becoming a smile. And now she leans towards him, head tilted up, to taste and give, chuckle, lips and tongue, sweet sunshine kiss.

Feedback is very welcome.
I also watched Little Britain (Vicki Pollard and Ann were responsible for my biggest laughs, and those links. I love the links!.)
Also, it inspired this.
Giles/Anya dialogue snippet (PG-13?)
[GILES is standing naked. ANYA is half-undressed and staring at him.]
ANYA: You shape up very well when divested.
GILES: Well, thank you for clearing that up.
ANYA: Oh, I know that huffiness. Quit it. It's good that I find you more than moderately attractive, after all, it increases my desire to draw out this evening of erotic pleasure and mutually satisfactory orgasms that we've finally got around to.
And that's a good thing.
GILES: [His voice much deeper.] Anya.
ANYA: ...? [He approaches her.]
GILES: Shut up.
[PLEASURE ensues.]
Oh look, the comments are enabled. Fancy that.
*As, cinema and work allowing, I'll have gone to see GOF before I next get to lj, I'll recap what I was going to say, great idea! chance to put money writing where mouth meta is. Easy to say what I want. But what can I do? Loss of control. Confident character voices = ? Loss of control? What fandoms do I have realistic canon source access to? MEEP.
