Damn, I love your work.

Jump Mal! Jump! River and Serenity will catch you.

Can't wait until the next thrilling installment. Post more soon please!

It's nice to be loved. :)

Oh, Mal will come 'round eventually (and I stress the "eventually"), but we've got awhile to go yet. *rubs hands together in glee*

Serenity had known who they were, what they were. You never leave Serenity, she’d thought. And they didn’t. Not her, and not Mal.

Beautiful point made there--I'd add Zoe to that list too, myself. I remember thinking once, "Why could be gone from Serenity and have it still be Serenity?" Or rather, who couldn't? The answer to the second question was the core of Mal, Zoe and River. If any of those three are gone, it isn't Serenity anymore.

You're right. If I'd thought about it, I would've included Zoe, too. This is what happens when you let a pairing take over your life. ;) Have to watch out for that...

And thanks! :)

Gee, thanks! I'll take the cookies and the hugs (the ponies and rainbows won't fit in my apartment). :)

And be careful! I don't want to be responsible for crashing your mental harddrive. You need that brain of yours to keep writing your own stuff for the rest of us to drool over, y'know. ;)

I'd sell my soul for another one, but that's not really possible right now, is it? More please! Mal, fall! It's for your own good!

I'm gettin' to it, I promise! PLEASE don't sell your soul. I don't think that particular establishment has a return policy.

Thank you. I enjoyed the way you explored the harmonics between River and Mal.

You're welcome, and thank *you*. The harmonics idea was actually a holdover from my physics major days. It just seemed to fit.
