The Feedback Meme

[scribblinlenore]

You know, I often want to participate in things like the Feedback Meme, but I feel like I'm pandering too much for attention, so I don't. Lately, though, my writing has been going...well, kind of poorly. So I decided: pandering, why not? *g*

Here I am.


In unrelated and completely unsurprising news, I still really, really, really love Firefly. A lot!

Ooooooooh Mal/Simon! Yay! Also, doh! I can't believe I forgot to go read your Firefly stories. More to feed the addiction, hurray!

You know what would kickstart my writing love? If it were easy. *shakes fist at writing*

Would you say Mal likes Simon's eyes because they're like sapphires or because they're like the sky? Discuss.

Excellent question! On the surface of it, Mal doesn't really much go in for fanciness like jewels, and the sky means freedom, which he loves more than anything. So in the front of his mind, he thinks Simon's eyes are like the sky, that last, fine, deep stretch of blue before you break atmo. But deep, deep down inside, I suspect that Mal has a fascination he'd rather not feel for fancy things he's not supposed to have, that don't belong to him, hence the fascination with both Inara and Simon. So maybe sometimes in the quiet of his bunk, he admits to himself that maybe Simon's eyes remind him a bit like sapphires, and he finds the notion rather a pretty one. Oh Mal! Oh Simon! :)

Now I'm off to read your story!

This is a theory I've been working on, that no matter what Mal tries to tell himself he's got a taste for fancy. First Inara. Then Simon. And he doesn't hate what Simon does for a living. *g*

Why is writing so hard? This I was asking myself last night while trying to write the Coda to that movie we watched on Saturday night. It must have a third act! *shakes fist at movie AND writing*

Mal doesn't go in for fancy -- but he does go in for a paycheck, which is why I reckoned he liked the sapphires. But in the black, he's likely to miss the sight of a blue sky, so. HM. Perhaps its sky after all that really is nearest and dearest to his heart.

That's true as well! It's a good thing that either way Mal has quite the fondness for Simon's eyes. :)
