Squee! Oh, that was just...words can not describe how awesome that was. Generally I love any fic that takes someplace cold and snowy, but this had the added bonus of being so sweet and well written. I also loved that you mentioned Jayne's crush on Kaylee, so many Rayne fans--myself included--tend to overlook that little bit of canon. Heh. ♥

Thank you! Means a lot that someone who loves Rayne so much likes this fic.

I adore snowy cold landscapes as well. There is something romantic about them.

Unfortunately, I got one when I wrote it!

Aw, I love it. So so good. Lovely Jayne-dialogue, perfectly in character-- and sometimes he's so hard to write. But you did it very very well.

I loved the whole premise of this fic, that she had seen it, and it had already happened and he just needed to accept it. XD

Yeah, loved it. And for a first FF-fic, was pretty close to perfect. ^_^

Kudos!!! Your characterizations of all the crew were splendid. For this being your first Firefly/Rayne fic, that was pretty amazing.

The interaction between River and Jayne at the Fair was so sweet. Favorite lines:

Jayne growled in frustration, before crumpling himself, “Look. I ain’t fit to be with a girl like you. Anyone with a lick of sense will tell you that.”

“I don’t care about sense. I care about this,” She put her hand over his heart, gazing down at her action, before glancing back up.

He darted his eyes away. “Aw River,” He took a deep breath. “I’d ignore anythin’ goin’ on in there. It ain’t worth it. Trust me.”

Really loved it...hope you continue with River's journey to claim her prize.

First off, I love that icon. :D

Second, thank you!!! I'm so happy people think I was in character. I was worried about that.

I might continue it. I'd like to, but I don't know. I always have such a backlog of writing and Whedonland keeps me very busy since I'm a mod there.

My Icon jellie_rayneluv August 26 2009, 20:35:12 UTC
Thanks! it was the first one I found. I'm pretty sure I found it on photobucket, but it has since been removed as I didn't see it when I was looking at some more pics last night.

You've got some cool ones yourself. I will be happy when I have extra money to get a paid account so I can add some more userpics to my profile. Because now I am finding so much great art and pics that I want to use....grrr.

This was so cute. I loved the comment about having enough wool to make a whole city itchy! This was romantic and sweet and I too, enjoy fics when they go into the cold weather. Very nice. Will there be more? :)Ali

Thank you! Glad you liked it. I like cold snowy weather myself. As I said above, there is just something romantic about it.

I might continue. I might not. I'd like to continue, but I'm not sure I'll have the time with all my other fics. I suppose if enough people wanted me to though I would. :D

Noted!

I'll try, but I need to update my Chuck fic before the mobs come after me... and running Team Firefly for Whedonland takes a ton of my free time up!
