It bears repeating just how much I LOVE the open ending, and love the tentative friendship between Jack and River. A lot. I think they would get along very well and be amusing, to boot.

Thank you so much for writing this and then surprising me! Makes me so happy.

I think people should take the open ending and run! What exactly would happen if Jayne and Daniel ever had to spend prolonged hours with each other? Sam and Inara? Man, so many possibilities left to imagine. ;)

Thank you for being so darn patient! I'm so sorry I made you wait so long.

Yes, because I have room to talk about making people wait. *g*

Oh, please. I made you wait TWO YEARS. I so win at the procrastinator game. :P

This entire fic is just so wonderful! You have kept SG-1 still the characters we know so well, but changed by their experiences. And integrated them with Firefly - in a truly natural way to the story.

I kept refreshing, hoping you would be able to finish posting all 9 parts this evening.

Thanks!

Thank you! It's sort of fun to imagine all the ways you could match up various characters from each show and guess what they might say to each other. :) So glad you enjoyed it!

Oh, thanks for posting all of this at once! Really, I have to get up at 3:30am to catch a flight, so I shouldn't be reading, but I couldn't stop. I'm totally blaming you when I fall asleep in meetings tomorrow.

Wonderful story- I love that you left it out there- do they go home? Will they ever see Teal'c?

You know, of course, that this is a possible series...hint hint...Although I must say you have some other series to work through too (and that I'm waiting for patiently (not). No pressure, of course-LOL.

The whole story just made me go "gah". Sam being tortured, but following through so bravely (and Jack-like). Mal being insulted that he wasn't torture-worthy.

And Jack and Daniel and crew to the rescue! Seriously cool! I think I will be taking your advice and diving into the Serenity Universe- the characters look fascinating. Thanks for letting me in on it-

Whoops! Hope the meeting went well. :) I just couldn't bring myself to strand them there forever, or send them home, so I just decided to leave it ambiguous. Maybe they will hang out long enough for Sam to learn some of their better technology so Sam and Jack can barter their way back into Earth's good graces again (and maybe stay out of jail). Who knows? Heh.

Although I must say you have some other series to work through too

Oy, don't I know it. I managed to get one looming project off my to do pile, but now there's just more! Meep!

Let me know how you like Firefly! I love it to pieces. :)

Thanks!

Spam at any time is more than welcome. In fact, it's encouraged. PLEASE TO BE SPAMMING MORE IN THE FUTURE.

This was an absolutely wonderful story. I'm very impressed with how well you melded these two 'verses and kept all of the characters true to themselves. And as much as I miss Teal'c, I love how they ended up staying - I think I might have shed a tear if SG-1 had decided to return to Earth.

My favorite parts of this would have to be, without a doubt, the Sam-Mal interactions and the Jack-River interactions. So perfect.

Thank you for posting this ♥

Hahah. I'll keep that in mind. As long as it's fic, I can spam all I like. ;)

Thank you! The Sam and Mal antagonism just blossomed from the first moment. (I remember writing their first scene and being kind of surprised by how much they annoyed each other, but it just made sense.) Jack and River, on the other hand, totally surprised me, but Jack's thing with kids and misfits, it just seemed to work. I'm so glad you liked it too!
