Poor guilt ridden Simon. Who better to lead him up from it than a trained companion and friend? Lovely, quiet story.

Oh, thank you! I'm happy you liked it.

Really beautiful, layered and complicated. You capture Inara's voice perfectly: this feels like the way she'd consider and present events. I love the use of River and gifts, the symbols and the details and the style of writing.

Thank you! Inara's grown on me a lot as a character, and I'm much more confident in using her than I once was. I'm happy that you liked this. The feedback is very much appreciated.

Oh, lovely. And the first person works here, where it so rarely does.

Thank you so much. I admit I have a fondness for writing in first person, but I'm well aware that it's not to everyone's taste. (I suppose too, there's always the fear of it being a bit self-indulgent *g*). I'm happy you thought it worked.

Really beautiful fic! I love those two, and River was just perfect! :3

Thanks so much, I'm glad you liked it :)

Lovely, quiet piece. First person POV and a great Inara voice, very nice. :)

You wouldn't expect it but Simon/Inara works in a strange way. I think theyve become my favourite Firefly pairing.

Thanks, that's very kind of you :)
