Glad you enjoyed, XC, and thanks for taking time to comment. :-)

You know I loved the hot ones, but I think I liked the "Sitting Together" drabble the best... I can really see them taking time out to watch the sky together :)

I wanted "Sitting Together" to convey the sense of comfort and quiet companionship I felt that J and K might share.

Other than our run of Chuck/Major John/Sarah porn drabbles, I'd never done a long list of 'em, and I was surprised at how challenging the format can be, or how much fun. Like a micro story or writing Haiku (which my English teacher aunt used to teach me to read and write at age 4).

I just want you to know how much I've appreciated all your comments and feedback on my postings. It's nice to know that somebody's reading the stuff, and if a piece really sucks, I trust you to say so!

I'm with LadyT, "Sitting Together" is my favourite of this batch. I've been guilty of RWC (reading without commenting).

Thanks for coming clean re: the RWC. You're probably not alone, but it really does tend to make one wonder whether they're posting into a vacuum. Heck, I'd rather someone commented and said "Wow, that sucked!" than get no comments at all.

That being said... I'm glad you enjoyed "Sitting Together", too. After all, great minds dream alike. *grin*

All 50 of these drabbles are really awesome! 47 is actually my fave out of all of them. I convey's such sadness and love. You actually made me cry with that one. In less than 100 words! It reminded me of your stunning "We Was A Family". You are one of a few writers out there who can wring such emotioin from me. *applauds*

Thank you, SC. I think that one's powerful for several reasons: How hard it was for Jayne to finally let someone "in", the abruptness of it. And we (the readers) are left wondering, just how did Kaylee die?

As an artist/musician/writer, my goal in all I do is to form an emotional connection with others. When I'm successful and someone "gets it" - well, it just doesn't get any better for me.
