I like drabble stars too. By the way, your teacher sounds a bit weird. And not very observant if she kept sticking things on you that were obviously causing your skin to break out.

She totally breaks my heart when they crush her spirit - I know, bitches. I was kinda hoping that Inara might break into the conversation and put them in their places. Alas, no.

actually that's kind of like Sharon explaining the Flipper - Freaky you should say that, that's exactly what I thought of when watching this scene. Hard to picture a jealous Inara sitting at the bar, smoking fags and doing shots though. Then eventually phoning Brett, er, I mean Mal to come and get her. Tee hee. Now that would be funny.
