Lovely. Understated and sweet. Interesting that you push the idea that River is still a kid, and that it's okay that she's still a kid. Gives me tons to think about with my own Mal/River fic.

Thank you :-)

To me, River is a kid in a lot of ways because she was practically torn away from her youth, but her experiences make her a different sort of kid.
