The begining could have used a little more-but the story really revolves around Mal. And though it's right on it also seems off. Maybe the drinking with Zoe and Inara is whats got me. Seems backwards that after Jayne's gone Zoe'd show up followed by Inara? Just me and mine. I liked it overall though so thanks again.

Cheers Jen

I like the idea of 'Mal and his two women' but some things do change, and one day Inara is going to prove that to him, at least in this little scenario!

Aw! It's like the whole shipful of people are readers, knowing exactly what everyone else needs - whether it's a drink, company, or to know someone's waiting at home for you. Very nice!

Oo, hurrah - two new pieces! Looks like your muse has woken up, or is at least less lethargic these days. (Knock wood.) I especially loved the line "all sorts of slinky in places that had no right to be slinky".
