OMG fantastic. Thank you so much - this is the best bit of Mal/River I've read in a long while, and believe you me, I needed it. :) It was very well-written; I think everyone has their own incarnations of River and Mal as characters, and yours I really like. You have a very good River voice and a great understanding of what drives Mal as a character, and bringing the other ones in here felt nice, too.

Very good work. Hope to see more from you, sweetie! :)

And I'm chuffed that you just said "chuffed." :D

Now being that the morning news is gone and I'm not asleep yet, I guess I better go. ;)

Also: feel terribly bad that I failed you and didn't do your Mal/River/half a bottle of wine promptly, because now you've done it here and it's brilliant. What happened is, I wrote the fic with the bottle of wine clearly placed at the beginning, and then forgot all about it. :P Such a failure. Do you still want me to write you a proper one? :)

LOL! I actually forgot I asked for that, and there I go putting it into mine ;)

*little voice* ...but I'd still like one anyway */little voice*

Well, then, you should have one!

It's your great idea - you gotta use it. ;) There can never be too much Mal/River/wine. After all, Kaylee's inter-engine fermentation system is canon, baby.
