  • Kali Dances

    Rating: R, I think. Stupid American rating system.
    Genre:
    Notes: The black goddess dances. Instant karma's gonna get you.
    There's a soundtrack to this story. None of it is in the story as it isn't a songfic. But if you want to imagine it try: Madonna's Ray of Light, All Saints' Pure Shores, PJ Harvey's Down by the Water, Moloko's The Time is Now, Kula Shaker's Temple of Everlasting Light (read the lyrics).

Firefly fiction

  • Even Cowgirls Get the Blues (*WIP*)
    Spoilers: post-Objects in Space, eventually for the Big Damn Movie
    Rating: PG-13
    Genre: Drama/Romance
    Notes: Her touch was usually a commodity and her palm had tingled with illicit pleasure at being freely given.
    There are all sorts of ways to feel blue, and the women of Serenity feel them all.
    This fic was basically inspired by Even Cowgirls Get the Blues by Tom Robbins - or more precisely by the title. Each chapter's title is also a title of a Western film (or a variation thereof). Chapter 1, The Best Little Whorehouse on the Rim, focuses on Inara. Later chapters focus on others.

    Rating: FRT (PG13/12A)
    Genre: short character piece, vaguely Ray/Neela
    Notes: My, but I do like to swear. Nothing really rude, but if even the least bit of potty-mouth bothers you, avoid me. And I have no idea where the whole Ray/Neela or Roomies thing has come from. But here it is.

    Notes: I have read spoilers for later episodes, and this fits in between the end of 12.08 and the start of 12.09 but without spoiling 12.09. Yep, it's a missing scene type thing.
    Summary: She sat coiled into the corner of the sofa, with the lights off and the news channel nearly muted.
