( The Special Hell )

Well, I figure somebody out there has got to be tired of refreshing their friends page to the same stuff. So this is for you. And for all those valiant striking souls, whenever they come back.

Basically, this is an experiment in silliness - I took two slightly crazy people from two separate fandoms, mixed them together and this is what came up. And either one or both or neither is hallucinating - this is just a tiny ficlet.

Title: Not So Solitary
Characters: River Tam (Firefly)/Miguel Alvarez (Oz)
Rated: PG

( Toto, I don't think we're on Persephone anymore. )

If anyone feels like reading my entry for the Mal-River ficathon, it's here. The theme for this year's was AU, so you have been warned.

Here's the list of drabbles I've posted to the firefly100 community. Sorted by character/pairing. (Note "/" does not necessarily denote romantic involvement)

( FIREFLY )

This is my response to prompt #28 for the Mal/Simon ficathon - "Why do you hit me when you know you want to kiss me?"

Characters: Mal/Simon with Zoe & Jayne

Word Count: 1993
Disclaimer: Firefly & the characters within are the creation of Joss Whedon. I'm merely having a good time with them
A/N: Special thanks to my most-excellent beta, history_gurl for her comments and support and also to woodsong_1978 for running this challenge over at the_pretty_fits. One more note, I took quite a different path on this than the prompt would suggest, diabetics beware.

( Hit me )

Work has continued at its slow pace the past week. I feel like I'm trying to print money right now which is a little unnerving (gonna be a slim month in the office and everybody's feeling the pinch). I've managed to eradicate ninety percent of the stuff over 30 days, so we can't even tap into that.

Had a strange experience today. Ran into one of my clients from work - who I've talked to on the phone for 4 1/2 years - at church. She came up to me and said my name about 4 times before I realized who she was. It's weird though seeing somebody in the flesh that you've only spoken to on the phone - they never look like you expect them to. My brain is still trying to process it.

I spent most of the weekend at the computer. No "Oz" stuff this weekend, but thank you rileyc for putting up those great quote prompts at hardtime100. I have McManus in mind for several of them. I am still working on my Oz lyrical fic. There's just one more part to it that I have to finish and then the tweaking begins. But I have been writing and posting to other communities like a mad bunny - here are links to what I've been up to...

For firefly100
Mal-Kaylee
4 drabbles featuring Mal & the men of "Firefly"
3 drabbles featuring Mal & the women of "Firefly"

and for departed_fic
a short Colin POV fic (Do NOT read this if you haven't seen the movie 'cause I spoil the hell out of it)

And all this on top of my 3 pages of morning writing and my hour's worth of freewriting time. Next weekend I plan on screenwriting (and I have Friday off so that gives me an extra day to work - that doesn't sound right)

Even though I have been working diligently on my Oz challenge, I've also been posting a bit to the Firefly fandom. Here's a sampling of some Zoe-centric fic that I've posted to firefly100. Read on if you're interested. The first two stories go together and the last two do as well. (Oh, and if you've seen "Firefly" and not the movie "Serenity", you may not want to go further.)
