That was just WOW. That's the word for it. I absolutely loved it ( ... )

Thank you so, so much! Drew Goddard specifically said, in his interview, that he didn't know if the drug he was referring to and the syringe were the same, but I figured, what the hell. One less loose end dangling.

Zoe ... Zoe was damn difficult. I think I might have foreshadowed a bit too much with her in the story, that's why she came across as a little cold when I didn't mean her to be. But I knew going in what I was going to do to her and Inara, so that's hard to hide. Eeek. Zoe's cold when she needs to be, not before or after ... hmmm. I probably blew that one.

Thanks for validating me on the multiple POV. Yeesh, not like I pick the easy way out, is it ...!

I'll definitely be writing more. As soon as the scars heal up, yikes.

I think you did right by Zoe. If you watch the movie, it all makes sense. If there are readers who haven't, it might or not. It worked for me.

I am stunned and horrified and impressed, not that I expected anything less from you. This is amazing. Thank you so much for sharing it.

Thank you. Sorry about the "horrified" part, but ... yeah. I can always pass the blame to Drew Goddard on that one ... :)

Blessings for the new year!

Oh dear, I came here via Kita, and damn. Just... wow. I am so so glad this was never an episode, because to see this would have pretty much broken me. Your Inara, your Mal... geesus. Also, your Wash is just adorable. Blowing a kiss to Simon, just because he's there. It's the little touches in this that make it just utterly amazing.

*lets out breath*
I hate Reavers. A lot. Eek.

I'm so glad it didn't just suck, because it could've. I wasn't entirely sure it didn't. :) Thank you so, so much for the shiny feedback!

And yeah, Reavers? Not in favor of 'em.

Wow. This is sharp and painful and beautiful and exquisite, all at the same time. You did such a wonderful job capturing the voices and characterizations. Really astonishing piece of work.

Not sure if I've run across your work before, I happened to see Kita0610's rec of this piece, and altho I rarely read fics anymore, something fortunately made me check this out ... I'm ever so glad I did.

I'm so very pleased that it worked -- thank you so, so much for the feedback! I appreciate you taking the time to say such lovely (though probably undeserved) things.

Jumping christ on a crutch.

That was... words fail. If this was just your first story, I can't wait to see what you come up with next.

Jumping christ on a crutch.

LOL, that's pretty much what I thought when I read the paragraph synopsis of the plotline ... followed by, "you're totally out of your mind if you write that."

But sanity's overrated. :)

I'll definitely come back to Firefly as soon as I can. Thanks so much for the encouragement!
