What a great fic.

What an utterly crackbrained plot Mal had...

*grins*

Mal does tend to be a little, teensy bit crazy. :) I'm so very envious of all the creative and devious things the writers did in the series. It's so difficult to write creative and devious things without coming across as convoluted and derivative.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Great story hon! You're writing gets better and better with every fic :)

Thanks! The pairing just about broke my brain...

Thanks! In my head, River was having a very good time of it all. LOL And the Jayne/Zoe pairing just about killed me with trying to find a way to make it plausible so...whew! :)

Re: Utterly delicious!

Thanks! Unfortunately, I nearly broke my brain just trying to write this much Jayne/Zoe so I doubt there will be any more. Famous last words, I'm sure...

I have no words. This was absolutely wonderful. The characterizations were perfect and I love the complexity of it. Such a great plot!

Loved the beginning with Mal thinking about what Zoe means to him (and his thoughts on Inara).

And there were so many good lines! From the you’s creepifying even when you ain’t crazy to I am not going to giggle and then to Where else am I gonna get a dress like that?, they were all wonderful!

I'm putting this on in my memories!

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it! And I'm glad you thought it was complex rather than merely confusing...there's such a fine line between the two. :)
