Just want to say how much I enjoyed this! I'm working on a Firefly/Deadwood crossover fic right now that's been keeping me awake at nights (gorram thing!), and I'm fascinated to see how other authors have tackled the premise. I particularly liked you handling of Alma's voice. Very nice!

I've been really fascinated with the idea of how River might interact with Farnum. Talk about a slimey mind you're really, **really** not to want to have read...
