Ooooh. Sounds awesome, glad you had tons of fun. :D

shinydinosaur October 27 2010, 04:34:50 UTC

I did, thanks! :)

Ooooh, it sounds like it was a whole lot of fun. And yay for winning stuff!

Oooh Chess. And the Time Warp is always good times~

Man, I want to go to a firefly/scifi convention. :|

\o/

I also bought a handmade whiteboard, with "I am a leaf on the wind" in green on the bottom left, and a small group of leaves, and then one leaf by itself on the upper right. <33333

IKR I want to live at this place, srs. It was fantastic, and with under 150 people you start to recognise people faster and make friends easier.

teef_chan October 27 2010, 05:24:59 UTC

Aw, that's awesome!

That's cool~ It must make it feel a lot cozier than having thousaaaands of people EVERYWHERE. (though that can be fuuun too)

shinydinosaur October 28 2010, 03:47:13 UTC

Heck yeah, I love when it's cozier like that. :D

IT SOUNDS SO. AWESOME.

She wrote/sung a Jayne/Kaylee song that was absolutely hilarious

A+. I may... ship it, just a bit. *g*

mercsgoodgirl October 27 2010, 12:18:48 UTC

The Jayne/Kaylee song she's referring to is called "Kaylee's Going Courting" and only got me boo-ed a little (OK - I know it's not a popular ship, but I'm allowed my own kinks, right?) If you enjoy this alternate pairing, check out the sidebar at my journal. Tons of J/K as well as canon Firefly fic!

ever_neutral October 27 2010, 22:03:11 UTC

Oh, yay! I will definitely check those out. :)

shinydinosaur October 28 2010, 03:59:12 UTC

IT WAS. SO. AWESOME.

Bahaha. I can totally see it as cracky fic, but never for realsies, as Topher would say. :P

mercsgoodgirl October 27 2010, 12:22:28 UTC

Thanks for the props on my concert - I'm so glad you enjoyed it and the Ball.

The other song you referenced is titled "Travellers and Dreamers" and follows ten generations of colonists from Earth-That-Was to Zoe's birth aboard a colony ship just prior to landing on one of the new worlds.

shinydinosaur October 28 2010, 04:16:58 UTC

That one! That was absolutely my favorite, although one of your other songs is a close second, and they were all excellent.

Any chance you have a CD available? :)

mercsgoodgirl October 28 2010, 11:40:25 UTC

Working on it! Look for "Songs From The Black". I'd planned to have the Grand Kick Off Premier at the Ball but a death in the family delayed the process. Trust me, I will promote it on LJ, FB and every other way to connect with the BC community once it's done. Nice to know I might actually sell a few :)

BTW, what was your #2 fave? Just curious.

shinydinosaur October 28 2010, 15:56:08 UTC

It was... you did a song about Wash, I think. It was one of those happy-sad moments for me because I'm so ridiculously attached to Wash, if that makes sense.

My memory is a bit fuzzy, because it was so late and I was tired. :P
