Impressions of 'Leaves On the Wind' So Far (SPOILERS)
Saturday, May 10, 2014

Well, so far I've got mixed impressions of LOTW. It's nice to see more of the 'verse, to be sure, although I wish it, well....I wish it looked more like the 'verse we've all come to know and love so well. You know what I'm sayin'? Looks different, feels different. I suppose you could say that it is vastly different in the post-BDM world; thus I suppose it just comes as a shock to see Inara out of work and in bed with Mal, and Zoe....well, you know the rest.

Having seen the preview for issue 4, now I really wish I hadn't stalled for so damn long on my own fanfic series. Issue 4 is going in almost the same exact direction I had planned for book 4 of The Old That Is Strong, and here I thought I was gonna be all original. Sigh. Life. (Well, if issues 5 and 6 don't go in quite the same direction I had planned, I'll survive.)

However....

EEERRRRRGH!!!!! RIVER TORTURE!!! I can only stand so much of it, in fact I had to stop reading Virtual Firefly Season 2 because I just couldn't stand another sentence of what they were doing to poor River. Now that we're getting more of the same from LOTW there is only so much I can take before I stop having fuzzy River dreams and start having heartbreaking nightmares. (Note to self: go easy on the poor thing in your coming endeavours.)

Just the same, the LOTW creators have somewhat redeemed themselves with....wait for it....

BADASS KAYLEE!!!! WOOHOO LOVE IIIIITTTTTT!!!! No, seriously, I literally clapped and laughed when she was giving Jubal a taste of his own medicine. Who'da thunk it of sweet, warm, cutie-pie Kaylee? As I say, the 'verse has changed.

But if LOTW is hit with so much as a drop of Rayne before the end, I'll be lookin' to kill some folk. Just sayin'.
