*****

When his hands touch her, she closes her eyes and wishes.

She wishes those hands were softer, surer. She wishes his lips were full and tasted of spices, not thin and vaguely disinfectant flavoured. She wants him to whisper to her about exciting worlds and glamorous people. Instead he is silent, save for the occasional moan which he stifles, embarrassed by his lust. She longs for soft curves and smooth skin but gets hard planes and jutting bones. She needs vibrant reds and golds, not dull greys and blacks.

She wishes she were in the shuttle, having her hair brushed.

So this was posted first and so I started here but I read them all before commenting (yay for your new found Firefly love and yay for fics for me to read!!!!). This one is still my favourite. I love the comparisions between Inara and Simon and I love the simplicity of her wish in the last line - She wishes she were in the shuttle, having her hair brushed.. I also love that it's 100 words!!!!

This one is still my favourite - Glad you liked it. I haven't posted it to any Firefly specific comms or anything but I might seeing as you like it.

And I had to get the hair-brushing in somewhere. Such blatant subtext in those first two eps. I was sure they were doing it.

I also love that it's 100 words!!!! - I've never written a drabble that's over 100 words, because I'm weird and anal about some things. But this one was hard to get there.

I haven't posted it to any Firefly specific comms or anything haven't even visited any Firefly specific comms (but you know that new things frighten me).

And I had to get the hair-brushing in somewhere. Such blatant subtext in those first two eps. I was sure they were doing it. - that makes too of us!!!! I'm getting all nostalgic just thinking about the subtext.

haven't even visited any Firefly specific comms - I have now posted the drabbles at fireflygirls. Got some nice comments. It's not as scary as I thought.

I'm getting all nostalgic just thinking about the subtext. - Me too. When I think back to five days ago when I first saw these eps...

When I think back to five days ago when I first saw these eps... Ah those were indeed the days, good times, good times.

Am going to go and investigate fireflygirls and if I do post I will, naturally, be prefacing it as being your fault.
