quietly beautiful.

We’re the same. More scars on the inside than on the outside. Both of us created by the Alliance. They took out parts of my brain and tried to make me a killer Scarecrow. They killed pieces of your heart and tried to make you a Tin Man, but I can hear it beating again.

That is quite possibly the best description of why Mal and River are the same that I've ever read.

Beautiful work, darling. Simply fabulous.

I love Mal/River and I adore your story. It's so poetic and perfect :)
