Holy crap!! I have a new favorite pairing!!!

*flailz*

And I was just sitting here, thinking on how Adam always says Jayne was in love with Inara, and wondering why I'd never read any Jayne/Inara fic, and then one of my favorite writers pops up with this --

Loved it! And I totally want more. Can't believe I just said that... but this totally works! And it was sweet and hot and perfectly in character and so them! Now I want you to put the war fic on hold to write more of this...

Or not...

Or...

Dammit! Just write lotsa Jayne!! :)

[rinalin]

You made me start to cry. I was, and still am, freaked over writing and posting this. And... I'm just so excited that someone besides me got it.

I so CANNOT be one of your favorite authors. That's just... someone elses job. I'm not that good.

But thank you. *Hugs your ankles*

How could you have possibly been freaked over posting this?? This is a fic that needed to be done. I mean, sure, the likelihood of anything ever happening between these two was beyond remote but this is what would have happened had they ever done so. Inara would have seen the parts (not just the dirty ones!) of Jayne no one on the crew seems to notice - and she would have understood it. And that what makes me totally heart this fic so much!

And you totally ARE that good, darling. I have yet to read anything you write that I don't positively adore. Had I a tenth of your talent, I'd be a very, very happy girl! :)

[rinalin]

How can I be freaked?

It's Inara and Jayne!

But...Inara's good. She couldn't help but see, like you said, those things in him that the others missed. She just hadn't looked before.

I expect lots of hate mail about this never happening, and being completely unbelievable, and why did I waste my time when I had other things to work on...

*le sigh*

I've been told I have a loud inner critic.

Oh! The conclusio kicked ass Rin! Whoot! Good job. I finally got to read the part where she saw it was Jayne, and reading it altogether in one straight shot was nice. :p

This is a great piece of work.

[rinalin]

hee! I'm glad the conclusion worked, since I basically skipped the smutty part of the smut.

*frets over that*

My inner critic really just needs to take a vacation far, far away.

Nngh.

I could just about cry, that was so lovely. Seriously. Exquisite. Having someone with that much of an understanding of people really see Jayne ... *sniffles*

[rinalin]

You cry?

Me cry!

You guys are so entirely sweet with everything you've said. I'm all teary. At work, no less.

Your inner critic just needs to take a Valium or something because this... this was wonderful work. I can't quite believe that I even read a Jayne/Inara, let alone one that was done as convincingly as this one, with both absolutely in character to the very last detail. The classroom setting was so well-described I could vividly imagine it, and you showed just enough of the sex to be useful (it doesn't always have to be explicit, and the "fade to black" really works here). And I agree with the other posters about how you handled Inara's realizations about Jayne... nobody's ever looked that closely at him before, and she herself never had cause to until this lesson, so it makes perfect sense that his love be revealed this way. Awesome work. I look forward to reading your war fic soon! :)

[rinalin]

You really are gonna make me cry.

You understood what I was going for, when I'm not sure I got it entirely myself.

*hugs you to pieces*

What an interesting idea! I really liked Jayne's eagerness, and Inara's pauses to point out some lesson to the class.
