I'm sorry, but that's all I can give.

Okay I have been waiting to read a sequel to Bower ever since I read it, and I am so glad that you have written one. Its really good though i think i need to re read it a few times because I am not understanding. Is Jayne, River and Simon dead? Or do they just not care to return to Serenity? And did Simon and Jayne become lovers?

Really good and really kinda creepy in its way. Great job, even if I am too dense to get it. :)

What? OMG.

I like how this is from Kaylee's POV. It makes it all that more poignant or something. And I enjoy that you don't give full details about what exactly happened. Oh. And this is kind of 'OMG, how will we survive, apocalypse-y' fic, isn't it? YAY!

I love the image of Jayne and Simon at the end there. And also this notion that they're all lean, kind of on the edge, nutrition-wise, probably.

wonders if Mal's cracked lip come from thirst, too, or something else

Yes.

The silence of this (in terms of voices) is gorgeous.

This is evil in its open interpretation-ness and I love it.

Something I don't think anyone else has commented on yet (but it's late, and hot, so I might've just missed it) is how freakin' CREEPY this story feels. Picnic At Hanging Firefly, dude. The sense of distance and stillness and quiet was pronounced it ways that... well, they didn't soothe me none, put it that way.

Fabulous stuff. Thanks for poking me to read this.

Oh the creepy.

Wow.

I love dark fic. Just freaking adore it. That was wonderful, both parts.
